This chronological collection begins in 1936, when a 16 year old Dutch girl [Ria van Djik] picks up a gun and shoots at the target in a fairground shooting gallery. Every time she hits the target, it triggers the shutter of a camera, and a portrait of a girl in firing pose is taken and given as a prize. This series documents almost every year of the woman’s life up until present times, where at the age of 88 the woman still makes her pilgrimage to the Shooting Gallery.

The book: In Almost Every Picture #7: Shooting Gallery
