I had great pleasure leading a street photography workshop for City Academy in London recently.
While not committing wholeheartedly to making work during the two days (my eyes were never far away from my charges), I did nevertheless make use of the opportunity of using a little gem of a camera – a Rollei 35.
It is unobtrusive, small and feather light allowing discretion not normally afforded someone who regularly touts a dead-weight dslr.
I found myself photographing from the chest sometimes thus keeping both eyes roving.
Here are a small selection, some sharper than others. Zone focusing, baby.
It has been a while.
