around to see if this

driver made the

journey with his

crates. He also had to

be careful not to get

run over while taking

the shot.

As a young boy Chris was given a

Kodak Brownie 127 by his parents

and he remembers the excitement of

waiting for the prints to be developed.

When the fi rst digital cameras came

out he reignited his passion for all things

photographic. His job involved using an early

version of Photoshop to create drawings of

telecoms’ sites. Now retired, he can enjoy his

hobby. As he says, ‘At the moment street

photography has my attention. I love the random

nature of it. You have no idea what you might get.’
