Dougie has referred to these elaborate taxis as ‘Bollywood disco bars on wheels’<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n

Glaswegian photographer Dougie Wallace has gained a reputation as one of the UK\u2019s leading street photographers. Known for his brash and bright portraits of drunken revellers on the streets of Shoreditch in London and Blackpool, and he has a distinct style that is garish and raw, leaving nothing to the imagination.<\/p>\n

For his project Road Wallah<\/em>, Dougie turned his attention to the streets of Mumbai in India, and its black and yellow cabs, the Premier Padmini taxi. First introduced to Mumbai in the 1960s, these brightly adorned vehicles, with their psychedelic and patterned interiors, were once omnipresent, the streets heaving with the sight and sound of more than 60,000 cabs.<\/p>\n

It was over a four-year period, with more than 17 visits to Mumbai, that Dougie gave the taxi drivers and their passengers a taste of his infamous street-photography style, seeking to capture the everyday humanity amid the chaos of the city. \u2018I was jumping at the taxis at traffic lights with these three flashguns,\u2019 reveals Dougie. \u2018And then I would start shooting through the side window. I didn\u2019t ask anyone\u2019s permission, either.\u2019<\/p>\n

His bold ambush technique reveals some thoroughly frank portraits, capturing emotions and expressions before the subject becomes self-conscious and puts up a guard. \u2018I was trying to catch them unawares,\u2019 says Dougie. \u2018I would concentrate on capturing somebody\u2019s face, or I tried to capture a moment, for example, when somebody jumped in the cab, or when the taxi stopped outside Mumbai Central station and I\u2019d shoot them. Or I\u2019d be shooting them when the driver has to give them change.\u2019<\/p>\n

On other occasions, Dougie would turn his attention to the inside of the cab, taking a ride and photographing at the same time, shooting through the window or windscreen at the unfolding scenes outside. Whether shot from inside or out, the resultant expressions of the drivers, passengers and passers-by span a wide spectrum \u2013 from surprise and shock to irritation and exhaustion.<\/p>\n\t\t

The streets and people of Mumbai serve as a dynamic and intense backdrop<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n

Street photography using flash: Method in the madness<\/h2>\n

Dougie has cleverly highlighted these in all their glorious detail, thanks to his use of three flashguns, as mentioned previously. \u2018One is off-camera, connected with a cable cord, and two are on brackets on my Nikon D800 \u2013 one pointed straight down the lens and the other coming off a little bit to the side,\u2019 he explains. \u2018Then I\u2019m actually just trying to hit them with this flash and capture their expressions. The driver is only about 8in [20cm] away from me, as they\u2019re really small cars.<\/p>\n

\u2018The windscreen also goes straight up, so you\u2019re shooting straight through the glass, unlike modern cars\u2019 windscreens which are sloped, so that helps eliminate any reflections.\u2019<\/p>\n

Dougie\u2019s use of flash is crucial in achieving the overall look and feel of his portraits, but the intensity of three flashguns meant that shooting during the middle of the day was near impossible, as the flash would wash out and overexpose the already bright ambient light. So he made the decision to shoot only between 5.30pm and 6.30pm. \u2018That last hour of light is the best time to get the shots, as you can balance the ambient light,\u2019 he explains. \u2018You get a nice light, plus you sometimes get the setting sun acting as a backlight.\u2019<\/p>\n\t\t

Dougie’s project was four years in the making and saw him risking life and limb by dashing out onto the busy roads<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n

Street photography using flash: On the fly<\/h2>\n

Shooting with such a large set-up, as well as juggling the dodgem of taxis to get his shots, meant Dougie had to compose his images as he took them. \u2018I was often moving as the taxi was moving, so I\u2019d have to compose my images as I took them, concentrating on faces and expressions,\u2019 he says. Not only were the subjects reacting to his camera and flashguns, but they were also reacting to Dougie\u2019s presence, as he would shoot extremely close to them, almost becoming a part of the picture by proxy. Yet the images don\u2019t feel claustrophobic, thanks to his 18-35mm wideangle lens, which lets subjects have breathing space among the often cluttered and colourful backgrounds.<\/p>\n

With Road Wallah<\/em>, Dougie hasn\u2019t fallen into the trap of photographing the stereotypical cliche\u0301s of somewhere exotic. Indeed, there is nothing trite about this series, which offers a fresh perspective on the beating heart of Mumbai and what, quite literally, drives the city. \u2018A lot of the images you see of Mumbai are very much travel photography in style,\u2019 says Dougie. \u2018I wanted to shoot something different, something a bit more conceptual.\u2019<\/p>\n

What began as a simple premise of photographing a driver through a windscreen now holds more significance than first realised: thanks to government legislation introduced in 2015 designed to curb pollution levels, the Premier Padmini has been consigned to the scrap heap. With the taxis all but gone from the streets of Mumbai, Road Wallah<\/em> not only presents a glimpse into the city\u2019s chaos and commotion but also serves as a final farewell to the iconic cab.<\/p>\n\t\t

Due to the smash-and-grab nature of the images, Dougie had to compose his images on the fly<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n

Stags, Hens & Bunnies, A Blackpool Story<\/h2>\n

Published by Dewi Lewis, \u00a328<\/strong><\/p>\n\"Stags-hens-and-bunnies-book\"\n

Dougie takes to the walkways of Blackpool to capture the often hedonistic and oddly captivating stag and hen dos that stagger through the town\u2019s neon-soaked streets. Through his lens, the subjects\u2019 rites of passage take on a strange quality that is at once repulsive but also strangely alluring.<\/p>\n

Shoreditch Wild Life<\/h2>\n

Hoxton Mini Press, second-hand prices vary<\/strong><\/p>\n\"Shoreditch-Wild-Life-book\"\n

London\u2019s Shoreditch is a strange melting pot of the painfully hip and fashionably old. Dougie\u2019s images reveal a strange and decadent \u2018interzone\u2019 that hosts a variety of cultures, generations and ethnic backgrounds. You may need to do a little searching around to get hold of this compact book, which is now out of print, but it\u2019s worth it.<\/p>\n

We spoke to Dougie back in 2012, just as he was gaining recognition. Perhaps most notable is his quote: \u2018I\u2019m not sure if there\u2019s anything I wouldn\u2019t photograph. Pretty much anything is fair game.\u2019<\/p>\n

Dougie Wallace grew up in Glasgow, hence his moniker Glasweegee. Recognised for his distinct, direct style of expressive street photography, his work has been featured in the New York times, and Germany\u2019s stern, among others.
