Come along while I take protest street photography during a General Strike in the Basque Country in January 2020.
This was one of the biggest protests I’ve photographed so far and people protested for higher pensions, better social security and health care. Not even 2 months later the pandemic hit and the underfunded healthcare service was overwhelmed with the whole situation. Already in 2016 there had been protests that addressed the increasing lack of social security, but the protesters were ignored by the government. The devastating consequences during the first wave of the pandemic could have been prevented.
All pictures taken with: Leica M6, Voigtlander Nokton 50mm f/1.1.
Rollei Retro 80s and Ilford HP5+ developed in HC-110.

I love both of them, so if you've never tried them, give them a go! The pictures from 2016 were taken with the same combination, because it's perfect for these types of situations.

By the way, my ancient computers are both failing and I desperately need to upgrade at the worst possible time, because 2020 is a raging dumpster fire. As you can imagine, having no computer left will make it difficult to continue with these videos 😱 If you would like to support me directly, you can do that over on my Ko-Fi page. No pressure though, we're probably all in a rough spot right now!
