Overview

Welcome to 55 Portraits of Europe. Street Photography. In this photography book, you will find 66 portraits of people living in Europe and in different cities from countries such as Ireland, Portugal, United Kingdom, Poland, Germany, Belgium and France. There are individual portraits and group portraits; portraits of aged people, adults, young adults, and portraits of children; portraits of citizens going about their daily activities; portraits of people working and portraits of people enjoying life in festivals or showing their hobbies. There are even two self-portraits, the first and the last pictures. The pictures are in colour and in black and white. There are happy and sad portraits as well. I have encountered people in financial need and helped them. You will find some of them here, projecting their humanity in a very dignified way. Equally, I have admiration for models that openly show their physical defects unconcerned. It takes a lot of courage and dignity to open a mouth and smile when there are no teeth there. The vast majority of the portraits are spontaneous ones. I happened to be there, walking on the street, and I asked the portraited person if I could take a picture of her. I am therefore very grateful to the photographed models for their patience and generosity. I am fascinated by the way we humans project ourselves into the public eye, the clothes we choose to wear, the statements made with the way we appear in public spaces. You will find some of this fascination here. I try to present models under the best possible light and I frame the pictures accordingly to obtain the best of the models. Also, the pictures are presented in a way that they interact with each other, in as much as this is possible or imaginable. Taking these pictures was an immense pleasure and I hope that the viewers will appreciate the value of the models in posing for the camera. One final reflection. What would be a photographer without a good model, a good light and a good frame?.
