France 2011.




Just a quick photo from france i'm quiet proud off, I new I was going france for around 2 weeks, so I decided to hit up google street view in the same area to find some nice places to shoot, always find it incredible to see places on the internet & then see it in real-life.

So I set myself a little project, I did a print screen on google maps, & then planned a route from where we was staying to the place i'd found.

when I actually got there, I found myself mezmarised the fact I was 700 odd miles away & now im standing in the exact place just looking at it.

Really odd, so I shot it Early morning around 7.

Set up was:

- Bronica SQ-A
- Kodak Portra 160ns
- Shutter Release.

I photographed it at f.22 / 8th of a second.

I feel odd when I look at it, not because of the photograph, but sometimes I just feel lucky compared to other life's people live, the fact I have the opportunity to do some of these things, & it makes me laugh some of the things that bother people in life when they dont have the slightest idea how lucky they are.

I think the Zebra crossing adds some life to it, following into that curved curb then into the buildings, feel it has some flow.
