Lorcan Finnegan has been taking candid photographs of the people on the streets of Dublin’s inner city since 2012 – the characterful faces of those who are among the last bastions of a vastly changed city.

The film director’s Dublin Streets project began accidentally, after his good friend moved to Australia and he started taking pictures as a way to share the city with him. “I started taking photos of what I thought was quintessentially ‘Dublin’, as a way to stay touch but also to make him homesick enough to move back,” he says.
