5 Photographs Collection 0006 — Street Photography , Bristol


My life is a series of creative obsessions. During 2016-17 it was street photography. I rarely left the house without a camera in hand (a ‘proper’ camera, not a smartphone!).

It was a form of meditation. Roaming the streets, waiting, anticipating, hopeful for a magic moment. Searching for beauty and awe in the seemingly mundane. Being curious, present and occasionally participating in some mild trespassing.

These 5 frames were all taken in my own ‘hood, Bedminster, Bristol (apart from the Coke can, which was at the harbourside).

Pure street photography: nothing staged, no heavy Photoshop manipulation, no AI.
