Boy Busking

For my Get-Pushed challenge this week, Andrew-Bede encouraged me to step away from landscapes and into the world of street photography, capturing human action in monochrome. This was taken in downtown Coffs Harbour, NSW and features a boy busking as well as the usual street bustle.

you are only a couple hours south of me if that is where you live :)

@koalagardens Cool! We have a rather small koala population down here; I haven’t seen one in the six years I’ve lived here, but they are here.

@allsop Hi Andrew-Bede, I hope this meets the brief of monochrome street photography showing human action :)

A fabulous capture and street scene, he does seem very young though.

[Babs]

The busker looks so young. I hope you put some money in the box.

[Bec]

@ludwigsdiana @onewing Yes, he does look young, but was engrossed in his performance; his dad was off to the side supporting him too - I did check.

[Andrew-Bede Allsop]

Excellent! I particularly like the composition of the three men all in step, evenly spaced and looking the same way and the framing of the busker between the two men. Very well done, makes me think you should do more street photography.

works well in B&W. My son is about to buy real estate in Coffs!

@haskar @bjywamer @briaan Thanks all - it’s a change from my regular.

@allsop Thanks Andrew-Bede; I’m pleased you liked it. Happy Easter.
