"Street Strangers" (Exhibition)

Posted 01/02/2022 - 20:56 Link
Hope everyone is well.

So after much negotiation and many setbacks (not to mention covid19 restrictions) I finally have an exhibiton!

As some of you may remember - i started shooting street portraits of strangers around Belfast and Dublin around 6 years ago, starting off with Pentax gear before moving over to m43.

The first two photos are pentax photos in the exhibition - the others ARE with Pentax gear - some faves when i used the system

Hope you like!

Nice to see a project come to fruition. I used to enjoy those pictures. Let's hope it is the start of something nice.

These look great, I wish you all the luck for a successful exhibition. All those Irish girls, I guess you must have all the charm in the world!

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.
