Street Photo – Chinese Barber

©2010 Martin Liew Photography

On 15th August 2010, Sunday morning I was roaming around Joo Chiat Road and came across what looked like an antique shop, a Chinese barber at work. I found the whole shop and settings very old-school, especially that old-school barber chair.

I took a quick light reading with my hand-held light meter to determine the "right" exposure and set it accordingly on my Seagull-4A TLR camera. The film used is Ilford HP5 Plus rated at 200. In total, I made two shots and this is the second one. Wanted to go in to have some closer shots but I thought it would be intrusive. Of course, I could ask for their kind permission but I preferred the natural candid style.

Good morning and welcome back to another ICM street series Volume Two. How time flies! Two months ago, I shared my very first series and so in case some of you have missed it, you can view them here. Today I'm excited to share my new photos with you. There's a mixture of colors and black & white photos. So without further ado, let's jump right in.
