This was the film outcome from around Middlesborough town centre. i also finished the end of the film off around hartlepool. I think there is some really nice images from this shoot that i like the composition and the range of tones show in the image and want to enlarge in the darkroom.

Enlargements: 

I find it really hard taking pictures close up like this of people and i challenged myself to just get close and do it! Safe to say i wasn't discrete about it at all. I slowly snook up to the lady and got my image framed and ready. As soon as i clicked the button and captured my images i ran like hell! God only knows what people must have been thinking of me. I really like this image though and I'm glad i decided to just do it (even if i did run away like captain jack sparrow looking guilty while Rachel just stood and laughed). 

People don't like pigeons but as someone who has grew up with a dad who owns a loft full i am obsessed i don't think you can have a street photography shoot without a few images of pigeons in there. I do feel however that in this image there is a lot of detail lost in the group of birds and i would have preferred it if it wasn't so dark. I have slightly dodged the really dark area of the birds in to try and get a bit more detail back into the image however i don't think i have done it for long enough, this is something i will have to try again in the dark room.
