Social Venture Partners’ 8x10 Expose Potential Preview

Social Venture Partners is once again having their 8x10 Expose Potential show this November. I’ve been fortunate to have taken part in the last few events and this year a few of my photos were selected to take part in the auction.

The photo included in this post is one of the shots that was accepted. It’s a fairly old photograph; it was probably taken about 10 years ago. It was one of those nights where there was a crazy sunset (side note: I think sunsets are overrated, but blood red skies are neat) and I happened to have some slide film loaded in my camera at the time. I hardly shoot film at all, although I still have some Ilford FP4 and HP5 as well as Fuji Velvia in our freezer that I know I’ll use again at some point.

The show will be at The Tannery Event Centre which I’m pretty excited about. I’ve only been in the venue during off hours, never during an actual event. As always, on top of the art auction they’ll be having a number of inspiration speakers which are probably the highlight of the evening.
