Introduction and Breif


Brighton seafront seen from North Rd flat


This blog will follow the trials and tribulations of my first attempt at serious photography, Having played around with a canon A1 in my earlier days, the concept is not completely alien to me, but digital photography is to some extent; having never owned or properly operated a digital SLR.
My original plan for this project (entitled Place,was to create a portfolio of images based in and around a typical trades and labour club on Lewes road in Brighton, this having fell through, I want to now concentrate on the idea of a market(s), places of trade in Brighton. A theme interesting in both aesthetics of place and in portraiture of their in habitants. As emphasised before I wish to shoot this is a realist mode of documentary photography, in the tradition of Henri Cartier-Bresson or the cinematography style of neo-realist filmmakers such as Roberto Rossellini.
