Storm Goretti brought an all too brief dumping of very wet snow last week. Fearing it wouldn’t stay so pretty overnight I went for a walk around my local city in search of something moody and atmospheric Unfortunately by sunrise it was mostly slush

Raintown - London #streetphotography

Both Hong Kong and Tokyo photo zines are both currently available in limited numbers. They’re £14 each (including UK P&P) If you are interested in either, please direct message me to purchase, or for further details #photozine #zines #photobooks #photography

Neon signs used to be everywhere in Hong Kong. Not now. You have to seek out corners like this now (but it’s worth it). #hongkong #streetphotography #urban

Hong Kong - A zine Available to purchase now at £14.00 (inc P&P within the UK only) DM for more details or to purchase #hongkong #streetphotography #zine

A new zine - Hong Kong, by me. Exactly the same A5 format as ‘Tokyo’. A polished zine with almost 50 images taken on the trip in March. They’re priced at £14.00 each, including P&P within the UK only at the moment (sorry). Send me a message if you’d like to grab one #streetphotography

What’s this?

I rarely process in black & white, but this image was so complicated and there was no discernible colour connection I decided to go mono. #streetphotography “Ordered Chaos” 📸Sony A7iv with 24-105mm

And another from what I’ll from now on refer to as ‘The Fuji Files’. Great memories of finding my feet in street photography with these cameras. #streetphotography #nightphotography 📸 Fuji XT4 / Fujinon 56mm f/1.2

I never seek permission before taking a photo as i believe it removes all the natural goodness from a street scene (I know not everyone will agree). I like catching the candid moments. Summed up perfectly in this frame from my old Fuji Days #streetphotography #photography #candid 📸Fuji XT-4

Simple but very effective 👍

Fascinating image. Well seen 👏

Everything in its right place (or you’d never find it amongst this lot). #streetphotography #HongKong 📸Sony A7iv

Some wider images from my recent Hong Kong trip. Such a Colourful city. #hongkong #streetphotography

The cars the star - I’m not a car photographer by any means, but found the Hong Kong taxi the perfect accompaniment to some of the last remaining neons in the city. #hongkong #streetphotography

Sunday morning, Kowloon, HongKong. My second photography trip to Asia proved to be just as fascinating as my first, although with different challenges. I’m looking forward to sharing some of the scenes, starting with this early fave. #streetphotography #HongKong #photography

Embrace colour. Life’s too short. #streetphotography #street #photography

This year hasn’t started as I’d hoped/planned. Unfortunately I don’t have a receipt, so can’t take 2025 back for a refund. Maybe I should consider January a practice run, & join in the new year celebrations with the Chinese? Happy New Year folks!! Here’s a fave oldie Chinatown #streetphotography

“I don’t do black and white”. But that’s something I’m hoping to change in 2025. #streetphotography

Some of my favourite images last year had the simplest compositions #streetphotography #photography #nightphotography

Some 16:9’s from a random walk around Soho on a Friday night before Christmas #streetphotography

Without going into details, I will be happy to see the back of 2024. At the time it was forced, but I’m glad I went out with my camera when I did. I even managed to create some images I’m proud of. I’m going into 2025 in positive mood. I hope it’s going to be a good year for all

I wont tell everyone ive had a @philpenman.bsky.social book for Christmas. But there may be signs

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas!!! #London #streetphotography #festivefeels #photographers

According to photo sharing platform Flickr, this has been my most popular photograph of 2024. And unusually for me, I actually still like this years choice (my favourite images are rarely the popular ones) #streetphotography #london #peoplewatching

If you fancy hearing yours truly ramble on about a Tokyo trip and the experience in producing my first zine listen here. I was reluctant to speak publicly, but Euan can be pretty persuasive & does a cracking job as host

Some different images from my recent trip to London. #streetphotography #london #photographers

Followers from other platforms will be familiar with some of my images from a trip to Tokyo in Sept 2023. My only time photographing the streets overseas. Until March 2025 that is …. #tokyo #japan #streetphotography #photographers

When in Rome….or Tate Modern London as this was the case. Dodging a shower and taking in some cliches during my last trip #tatemodern #london #streetphotography

We’ve been expecting you Mr Bond. My imagination running riot during a recent night wander #london #streetphotography #photographers

I’ve created a starter pack for UK-based street photographers. Small for now as I’m struggling to find people! As people join and share their work I’ll keep adding to it. #photography #streetphotography #uk #streetphotographers

Try again I was saying how much I appreciate all the kind words on my images since joining this platform last week. I promise to try, keep you entertained with images from my random city wanderings. I know #streetphotography isn’t everyone’s cup of tea

Another photo taken on the same night walk as the recent chip van image (thanks for all the lovely comments etc). I found the warm glow of the pub most appealing, and couldn’t resist #streetphotography #lobdon #nightphotgraphy #photographers 📸Sony a7iv

I’m still pretty new here and finding my feet. Has anyone put together a list of #streetphotographers that they would be happy to share?

The Death Throes Of Autumn. Absolutely froze myself bagging these this week...

Classy James, very classy 👏

The Mirror Man was one of my favourite photos taken last year (2023). One of those moments were you can find a scene with great light, but the magic is out of your control. It either happens, or it won’t. And when it does we smile #photographers #streetphotography 📸 Sony A7iv

That’s brilliant 👌

Even my go to 35mm lens wasn’t wide enough for the look I wanted from this popular Southbank chip van, meaning a return visit with an even wider lens was required. The cod and chips was lovely too. #streetphotography #photography #london #night #nightphotography

As well as street photography, I also love to photograph the urban landscape. This was taken last time we had any serious snowfall in #Birmingham #urbanlandscape #photography #snowdays #nightphotography

It’s a new dawn, it’s a new social media day. Dipping my toes in the Bluesky pool. First one of my favourite images from my random wanderings this summer. The more keen eyed might spot a bonus bee, that makes an appearance through sheer luck, Hope you like. #photography #streetphotography #shadows
