Leeds 1983. Photo Peter Mitchell
- Nice. Been to a few of his exhibitions here in Leeds. Is it possible to get noticed taking photos like this today? Or has Instagram changed photography forever?Ianbolton

- Looks like where my parents were born.Chimp
- @ian I often think this. There seems to be an overwhelming amount of art/content/info now.Chimp
- I’m sure I saw a photo of some war-torn country on here and some comment suggested the photographer was using their plight for personal gainIanbolton
- I think it’s unhelpful to see any creative medium like that as it’s more rewarding to believe the artist is trying to advocate a common feeling or emotionIanbolton
- Peter Mitchell surely inspires a feeling of empathy and sometimes joy in such dark timesIanbolton
