Had you asked me at the start of the year which style of image I would shoot the most in the course of the year, I would not have thought portraiture. Far from it. I normally shoot buildings, bands, landscapes and wildlife. But 2010 was to become the year to improve at portraiture and "modelled" photography. From a journalistic day attached to the Green Party's campaigning in Manchester to street photography, this was the year of the face.
