Spyros Papaspyropoulos shoots mostly in Rethymno in Crete where he currently lives and in Athens, the capital of Greece, one of his favourite cities in the world. He is the Founder of StreetHunters.net and a strong believer in being free to photograph anything that is in the public. He loves breaking the rules, experimenting and making unconventional photos. Besides shooting digital, there are times when he enjoys using his old Yashica Electro 35 rangefinder film cameras. He loves shooting at the 28mm and 35mm focal lengths. Anything narrower feels too constricting for him. As another type of photography, Spyros likes Monochrome Landscape photography on very rare occasions. Additionally, you can find more of Spyro’s work and contact info on his personal website.
