Station

Dublin, Ireland, 2003: Commuters awaiting a train at Pearse St station in Dublin. This is one of the many reasons I love the Olympus XA2- being able to take sneaky shots in difficult light, yet still get well exposed & sharp images. This is straight off the scan- no edits… Olympus XA2/Kodak Tri-X

Wellington, New Zealand, 2010: Pigeons are part of the bird family Columbidae. They are an incredibly adaptable bird, having now colonised most parts of the world.

Puerta Banus, Spain, 1998: This black cat kinda looks dead- but it was just stretching in the sun… Mamiya ZE/50mm f1.7

Bobadilla

Bobadilla, Andalucia, Spain, 1998: It was completely by accident I visited Bobadilla at all… We’d caught a night-train from the west coast at Valencia, to Granada in the south.

Dublin, Ireland, 2004: During the demonstrations of Mayday 2004 (see previous) I caught this image of a rather defiant couple. They acted completely oblivious to what was going on behind their backs… 10 minutes later the police charged- I got away but very much doubt they did… Canon EOS5/28-105/Tri-X
