moody blues

this week for get pushed April (@aecasey) challenged me to do some street photography... something i did a lot of my first two years here, but which i've had to step back from since changing jobs earlier this year for a bunch of reasons...

i happened to be at my old stomping grounds today and i took the opportunity to grab a few shots... i find i am woefully out of practice...

for some reason i had this moody blues song running thru my head whilst taking this shot and now i have tune-cooties... figured i'd share ;p

(exif is off as i forgot to change the time in my camera when we "fell back" a few weeks ago)

@aecasey - another sort-of street shot... i'm definitely out of practice...

Oh but the atmosphere is great -- love the lonely skater and the moody blue tones!

perhaps out of practice, in your opinion, but I really like the POV and light/shadows.

@northy I like the (dare I say it?) negative space in this one. Lovely tones, great silhouette. I get a feeling of calm from this image. So glad you had time to get out and about despite the cold.

Absolutely brilliant capture and again you have captured the feeling of loneliness.... ♥

the light and composition of the skater makes for such a restful image on the eyes.
