Ben. I have just looked at the photographs as laid out in your Zine via the Blurb site, read your essay, kind acknowledgements and profile. What a professional looking, inspiring and beautifully presented piece of work. You should be very proud of yourself for this excellent piece of meaningful and relevant photography and writing. Some of the photographs are exceptional. You’ve inspired and influenced me with this project and it’s resultant zine. Congratulations! I hope to see more in the months to come. Paul
Thanks so much for this, Paul. And for taking the time to read the essay. Coming from a fellow photographer/writer that means a lot to me. 🙂 The pressure's on for the next one now. What can I say about Georgia? 🤔
You’re very welcome Ben. I’d love to go to Georgia. I’d be inclined to look at how pro west are they, what subversive actions have the Russians been involved I and what do people on the streets know and think!
Yes. I'm hoping to explore some of those questions. So far, their graffiti tells me they are pro-EU and Ukraine and very anti-Russia. And there seems to be a fair bit of US investment.
This city is so awesome for street photography! I would love to go there again but with my camera this time! 😊
Beautiful work Ben !!

It certainly is a great city to photograph. So many stories to tell. Checking out Cenk’s post now. 👍🏻
Thank you for your interest!
