Halifax, meet Ingram Barss. The bike enthusiast and photo fiend is taking over our Instagram this weekend to help celebrate Bike Week. Let’s have Barss introduce himself;
I am a photographer and I teach photography at NSCC. I am also an avid cyclist,and Instagram user..on my personal feed, I post only in triptychs, so doing single shots for you will be a bit of a departure. I used to shoot for the Coast a lot, and then moved to Los Angeles, and from there Toronto. I was very happy to move back to Halifax, and I am also very happy to be shooting for the Coast again.
Follow along as Barss explores the cyclist events happening in Halifax and Dartmouth with #TakeoverWeekend. And if you’re an Instagram-addict that wants to run our next social media takeover, drop us a line.
