I have this shot in colour, which I captured on my mobile phone. I wanted to do a black and white version because I love the contrast that you get with snow, especially when the light is coming in from a low angle. I remember seeing the gentleman as he approached me. He looked utterly [...]

This shot was taken with the Hypstamatic app which is fantastic and offers a variety of simulated lenses and film. This photograph was taken tonight as the snow returned. Thought we’d seen the back [...]
