Melbourne Street Photography is now on Instagram. After much thought about how to share my own images of Melbourne and some of the places I have visited, Instagram seemed the best way to share images without clogging up the website and Facebook page which is about the how, where, and whys I have learnt about street photography.

My most popular image ever...⠀⠀

MSP Back Catalogue Retrospective Day #27⠀⠀
⠀⠀
I had been studying light, shadow, technique and composition for over 18 months in a pretty committed way. Trudging off the train at Richmond Station, I spotted the perfect combination of light and composition for this image. ⠀⠀
⠀⠀
Patience was the key - whilst the pedestrian tunnel was extremely aesthetically pleasing, the composition needed some human interest. It was very quiet at Richmond Station, so I stood there for a few minutes trying to figure out what to do.⠀⠀
⠀⠀
A commuter walked past from behind me - but walking down the tunnel just didn't quite work. At the same time, a commuter walked right to left at the T walkway at the base of the tunnel. I knew I had a shot...⠀⠀
⠀⠀
I waited for another subject to be isolated, walking across the frame at the bottom of the tunnel. Mission accomplished. I actually only took a single shot - which is a bloody miracle for me!⠀⠀

⠀⠀
Another bar portrait of an awesome punk kid at The Corner Hotel in Richmond. Whilst I do not condone the habit, smokers always have something to do with their hands in portraits!⠀⠀
⠀⠀
A great example of having a little bit of dutch courage - enough to go over and ask if I could take his portrait. ⠀⠀

MSP Back Catalogue Retrospective Day #25⠀
⠀
My last day at work with all the friends I made at Lion. We finished up at The Corner hotel. I brought a camera and have a lovely set of images to remind me of the great times working on a range of delicious products. ⠀
⠀
I am a bit of a sook, so it was a pretty sad day, by the time I left to go home... ⠀
⠀
The mood of the day for me was perfectly captured by this image - it started raining in the beer garden and I spotted it hitting the tables that weren't undercover. ⠀
⠀
A real feeling of pathos that reflected how I was feeling...⠀

MSP Back Catalogue Retrospective Day #24⠀⠀
⠀⠀
A serendipitous shot from Melbourne Museum. They had a visual illusion exhibition. I walked into one of the exhibits - it was quite dark - and saw a kid in there. ⠀⠀
⠀⠀
As I had a Rangefinder loaded up with iso1600 film and set up for hyperfocal distance snaps - it was a simple case of "point and shoot". And hope for the best. ⠀⠀
⠀⠀
I loved how it turned out. The slower shutter speed combined with a little bit of movement of the subject resulted in a spooky and disorientating image. ⠀⠀
