Passed in a Flash

Street photography is all about a moment: in a split of a second a story unfolds before us and, unless we capture it, a second later it’s already gone – it passed. This series plays around the key concept of flash as a photography technique and a reference to the fleeting nature of the captured moment. Time is explored through the tension inherent in the dynamic character that candid flash photography offers while in fact “freezing” a moment in passing.
