My attempt at shooting a street market turned out to be fruitile.
67 / 365
So at some point this week, I just had to drink a can of man-up and do a street shot. This is for the Street Photography Now challenge, to match the quote "If you can smell the street by looking at the photo, it's a street photograph"
My mission for today: Go for a walk, find something with a smell, take photo, shove camera in bag, stealthily walk away and if anyone asks, pretend you have never heard of this new invention called a camera. Mission accomplished.
Obviously could have done this better but maybe in a few weeks, I might stop being embarrassed and take more than one attempt.
Wonderful street shot, I especially like how the people get together in the middle of the traffic lanes to congregate....must not have much traffic there....Well done
good for you for giving it a go... this looks cool! i still need to do a shot for this challenge... just need the time to get to one of the places where i think i might find the right kind of subject ;p
This is terrific. Keep it up...I find that when I pull the camera out I become invisible (if people do notice they politely move out of the way because they just KNOW that I'don't want their photo...believe me it gets easier. Surprisingly the more busy a place is the less people notice you...
