Description

Hosier Lane, Melbourne 1991

If you were to visit Hosier Lane now, or even do an internet search, you will find a totally different scene. The lane is the same, the same buildings and bluestone paving, but it is now a prominent part of the Melbourne Street Art scene.
Melbourne is known as one of the world's great street art capitals for its unique expressions of art displayed on approved outdoor locations throughout the city. Street art includes stencils, paste-ups and murals and does not include graffiti or tagging which is illegal.

I have a vast collection of b&w negatives and I've had some of them professionally scanned to eliminate the need for a darkroom. This Photograph was taken in 1991 using Ilford FP4 film.
