Brixton shrine to dead music idol David Bowie

Fans of iconic English music artist David Bowie who died from Cancer at the age of 69 on Sunday 10th January, have written messages on the faces of black models from Bowie's wife's Iman's cosmetic ad with drawn Ziggy Stardust zigzag across their faces. Others gather to pay their respects at a makeshift shrine of flowers and tributes to the local boy from Brixton, south London. Commuters stopped-by before entering the nearby underground station to take pictures and silently remember their hero's great days playing the soundtracks of their childhoods.
