street challenge is 21 today :o) be sure to join

May 31st, 2016
Time to start the 21st Street challenge - thanks to Darinka for hosting the last one and for your kind votes and to everyone who continues to post such a variety of great entries. I notice there are a growing number of people out there who used to be apprehensive of this kind of photography but who have now become so much more confident and are really discovering their own style. So if you've always wanted to try to take your work in a new direction, now's the time to be a little bolder and enjoy the results!

The challenge starts Tuesday 31st May and will last until Monday13th June. Entries must be taken during this period of time. Tag your shots street-21.

Here is a definition of street photography copied from the 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...'

Again,don't forget to tag your shots street-21

Happy shooting!
