For our practical photography course we have to put together a visual communication project of our choice. The advice given was to photograph something in your locality, in an area no larger than 1 mile. I've decided to attempt an environmental portrait sequence of the local people who live and work in Glasthule. I've decided to undertake this as my project as I love to photograph people, but I am inherently shy. I would normally balk at the idea of approaching a stranger and asking if I may take their portrait. I thought that this alone would be a great learning experience.
An environmental portrait is a photograph of a person in the place they live, work or play. The location of the portrait says something about who they are and what they do. Together, I hope that my proposed set of images will tell a little about the people of Glasthule and the type of suburban village in South County Dublin that it is.

I hope the kind people of the Glasthule shops and businesses will make this project a nice, easy and rewarding experience.
