A lovely man 1/52

A lovely man 1/52, originally uploaded by Esther Moliné.

The very nice owner of Dun Leary's Last Corner Shop posing for me. I went into Dun Laoighre yesterday specially to fill a roll of 35mm black and white film, as part of a project I'm doing called 'Five streets'. I loved this Newsagents and I wanted to buy something, so I got the last issue of the Spanish magazine 'Hola'. I know all there is to know about the Spanish Royal family now...
This photo is also my first of my 1/52 project I'm doing with the Dublin Photowalk group in which I have to take and upload a photo a week for a whole year. I'm also doing the 1/365 one (one photo per day for the whole year)!
Date of photo: 4/1/2014
Camera: Canon 300X with 28mm lens
Film: Kodak Tmax 400
Dev: R09 (10m @1+50)

My submission to Street Photography Now Community year 4 Instruction 5:
"Forget faces and expressions for a while. Focus on backs, but keep observing what is happening around too." (Dimitris Makrygiannakis)
Also photo number 4 of my 365 project (Dublin Photowalk 365 Project), in which I have to take a photo everyday for a year, I'm hoping to manage for all of them to be street!

Very happy at last I got my darkroom going yesterday and managed to produce a print! Will do more prints soon when I have a few more bits and pieces like a focus finder and a switch timer that will make life a lot easier!

Watching over, originally uploaded by Esther Moliné.

I'm delighted to announce I have a new work on display at my exhibition in the Brick Alley Cafe, Dublin. This photograph of a window reflection was taken in January 2013 in black and white film and was hand printed by myself in the Block T darkroom.
