Before heading back to Sri Lanka, I got in touch with the other of a local film lab with the intention of developing my film when I was there. He also shoots film and you can find him here on instagram. He suggested heading to Pettah Market – I googled the area and it was right up my street, what I didn’t realise was however much I would loved to shoot in Pettah Market, I would fall in love with the area more. A bustling cacophony of colour and authentic Sri Lankan life.




























































Great photos Karl. The colours are right up your street… and mine.
I was due to go the Galle for a month in 3 weeks time, but a buggered back has scuppered that. I’ll have to keep looking at your photos.
Great stuff.

i’ll get to Galle one day! I have to say the first time I was in Colombo I wished I was away from the carnage, but i’ve come to love the place and the people

Just an FYI. We have chatted on Instagram. I am klastorska21 aka Keith Page.
Thanks for taking such pleasing shots.
I have to ask – which cameras were involved?
