title
Observations on Romance in the City
#1 - La Grand Place, Lille, France, 1995.
#2 - The Quadrangle at the V&A Museum, South Kensington, 1983.
#3 - Bussing on the Platform at the South Kensington Station, 1991.
#4 - Romance on the Grass, Hyde Park, London, 1983.
#5 - A Tiff in the Park, London, 1992.
All the photographs he is submitting for consideration in the 2017 Neutral Density Photography Awards Competition were made on black & white film with 35mm still cameras. He has spent the past few years digitizing the original negatives at 4000dpi, and processing the images through Photoshop for spotting, cropping, and exposure adjustments.
Most of these images have never been exhibited publicly, but early last year Smith began to enter various photo contests in the U.S., and feels he's had modest success in this endeavor.
