Bathroom by Nina Sherman Sony DSC-RX100M4, 1/100sec at f/1.8, ISO 400 London-based Nina was on the hunt for an alternative to her usual photographic style. As she tells us, ‘As an amateur street photographer, taking candid photos of people is something I really missed during lockdown. Even as an introvert, I was longing for events and celebrations so I could start taking photographs of people again. Still life and landscape just wasn’t really doing it for me until I came across a weekly photography challenge by the one-and-only Martin Parr, during an online search for “photography at home” ideas. I took this one for the theme “Bathroom”. I soon discovered taking photos of still life could be fun!’ Nina uploaded this picture to Instagram @ninasherman1 with the hashtag #appicoftheweek.
