Up The Lagan in a Bubble is a self-published photobook by Belfast based photographer Daniel Graham, whose long-standing obsession with the city’s streets has driven the creation of this body of work. For years, Graham has wandered through Belfast with his camera, searching for those fleeting moments of humour, humanity and strangeness that unfold in the ordinary rhythm of daily life. His photographic story distils the energy of the city, its wit, its tensions, its resilience and the quiet poetry that often goes unnoticed.

About the Artist
Daniel Graham is a photographer based in Belfast. His work focuses on capturing candid moments that reveal the energy, rhythm, and character of urban life. Through photography, he is drawn to unplanned interactions, subtle gestures, and fleeting scenes that often go unnoticed, yet define the atmosphere of a city. He spends much of his time exploring streets both familiar and unfamiliar, observing how people move through public spaces and how light and colour interact in everyday moments. Belfast plays a central role in his work, offering a constantly evolving city shaped by history, culture and modern life. He aims to create images that feel honest, immersive and grounded in place.
