Firstly many thanks to @mona65 for hosting the last street challenge and a big thank you to everyone who voted.
Street Challenge was started by Catherine Pace @gozoinklings, and for all those who have not tried it yet pick up your camera and give it a go, walk the streets, sit in a park, a busy market, a bus stop and experiment with different focal lengths, angles, shutter speeds, apertures, equipment and don't forget to always carry a camera with you! Find what you are comfortable working with and make your style your own, and as Robert Capa says "If your photos aren't good enough, then you're not close enough"
A definition of street photography copied from Catherine's original Street Challenge post.
Catching a fleeting moment WHERE THE PRIMARY SUBJECT IS PEOPLE, doing what people do, being what people are and which moves the viewer in some way.
Street photography is often B&W, but not exclusively or necessarily so. Contains a human presence & element even if it is architecturally inclined. Often defined as "Unposed scenes in public places": so, no street portraiture where the subject is posing - although they may catch you & look into the camera! It does need to be confined to overtly urban areas - could be a beach. Avoid heavy hdr processing, spot-colouring etc...
Entries will start from Monday November 2nd, for 2 weeks, until Monday 16th November, UK time, and all entries must have been taken during that time period.
Have fun, and I look forward to seeing your shots.
