Chris Lermanis is a keen amateur photographer who spent his weekends from the late 1960s to early 1970s photographing around the inner Melbourne suburbs of Fitzroy, Carlton and Collingwood with his Pentax SV camera and 50mm lens.He hand-processed the black and white films at home and made prints in the bathroom or laundry, which was temporarily converted into a darkroom. During this time the houses and factories were being demolished and the new housing commission towers built.Lermanis recently started looking at his old prints and now has a book project planned.
