Danny at Wolverhampton Arts Centre’s celebration event for Our Freedom: Then and Now. Tintype.
Danny dressed as a warden to facilitate the celebration event. This was a test plate made during set-up with new lighting and shows some underexposure and fogging, however this photographic invisibility perhaps serves to highlight some of the untold everyday stories from WW2.
