STREET SCENE


This is one of the photographs I took yesterday when I was working on my Street Photography course. It was really cold and I just couldn't stay out there too long. The exercise was to produce photographs that froze action and others that showed motion, so I was photographing people walking along the street and chose this cafe as a good backdrop. In this one I had a pedestrian just coming in on the right-hand side but I decided to crop him out and convert to black and white for my blog photo today.

  4. Great shot. It reminds me of the one my son took lastnight. He took a picture out of the upstairs window at home of me looking at the Christmas lights from outside - the reflection caught the inside of the window more than outside and I am just a silouette in the background - very cool.
