Gun Series Project by Toronto-based Photographers
“Point Blank” is an ongoing series of handguns from around the world by Toronto-based photographer Peter Andrew, Simon Duffy and Derek Blais. Captured in extreme detail, the large-scale “portraits” are undeniably in-your-face, lending an intensity you can’t turn away from.

The trio has photographed seven handguns thus far and continue to build the collection.
