Sidewalk Survey by kannafoot

Sidewalk Survey

I went to the East Side of Providence for my photo today. As I rounded the corner onto Thayer Street, the Brown University student on the left asked me if I had time for a quick one question survey. Naturally, I said, "sure, if you have time for a quick photo!" The deal struck, I answered his survey and then stepped back to photograph his next encounter, which was this trio walking towards him. Thayer Street was a bustle of activity, so I may need to spend a bit more time there doing some mid-week street photography.

Post processing started with a classic filter in Topaz B&W FX. I adjusted adaptive exposure, regions, boost black, and contrast. A sepia photo filter was added in PSE.

Here's the high res version in Smugmug: http://kannafoot.smugmug.com/Photo-Challenges/PAD2013/i-S4qfNC9/0/XL/2013%2007%2015_0009%20copy-XL.jpg
