Life On Sydney Streets

Mainly street portraits from mostly Sydney Streets. I am a member & organiser of Sydney Street Photography on Meetup.com.
Historically Sydney in the 30s through to the 60s had roaming street portrait photographers who took images of people and then purchase from a local studio armed with the roll number and frame number. Leica Studio was the biggest and their negative stock is now held by a museum. Now everyone has a camera in their hands. The last street photographer resorted to supplying images from a Polaroid camera so he got the money on the spot & could do away with the bother of developing images and then printing on demand.
