Barry Herring is a photographer and architect who has lived in BC for 35 years. His prime area of interest in black and white photography is informal portraits of people. He enjoys watching people performing their “public roles”. This began from a reading of Erving Goffman’s “The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life”. A preference to use a 85mm lens on a Canon F1 allows him to be close enough to relate to his subjects, but not invade their personal space. In this way, he is on the edge of their presentation and the images are not “taken”, but generally “given” to him with the subject’s full knowledge.

Recently, he has become interested in hand coloring black and white images to provide soft nuances of light. This also has lead to a further engagement with digital imaging. However there is still the thrill of seeing an image for the first time since conception in the camera as it slowly emerges in the developer tray.
