UMBRELLA CENTRE CANTERBURY DAY 2

01/02/2011
Portrait photography at the Umbrella Centre in Canterbury
Their was plenty of concentration and bold colours on display, this was great as everybody was oblivious to me in the background snapping away. I also took the opportunity to take a few portraits as well, great characters whose faces tell a thousand stories, looking forward to continuing this project over the course of the year and getting to know a lot more interesting people from it. Also managed to play a few games of pool as well, sadly I lost to the gent in the picture below 2-0! Lenses used today were the 135mm and 50mm macro, don't often use this lens but it worked a treat for the close up portrait below of the bearded gent, what a character portrait, so natural as well bearing in mind that I was only a foot away from him.
