Walking by taffy

Walking

From the Chicago Cultural Center photowalk with Meg and Junko. So many fun shots from our walk that it's hard to choose what to post! I was able to get this shot as Junko had been walking for me so I could set it up. I would have used those except these two had great color pants on and the pair walked naturally by. Thanks Junko for helping me set it up!!
Cool floor shapes and reflections. So wish I was there with you all!!!

Great shot with the in-focus grid and movement in the walkers

Really neat for a different sort of photograph. You just lay in wait for this!

@amandal It would be great if you could come up to Chicago sometime!

@maggiemae First I had Junko walking and posing for me, and then as we were leaving, this couple started walking on the lights (a lot of folks walk around them) and the color of the pants was perfect for reflecting, so I waited and hoped they'd walk into my shot. I got lucky on this!

It's a GREAT shot, even though I liked being in the one you took of me (selfishly speaking) but this one is much better because it's spontaneous, and the color of pants works visually well for this shot. The movement is nice!

@jyokota I'll add you to the rehearsal explanation in the comments!

Cool-urban-hip image...great composition, lighting

I just laughed as I looked at this again -- this is Taffy's idea of "street photography" -- no faces. Legs are tolerable as shapes.
October 23rd, 2015  
Fantastic light...
October 23rd, 2015  
This is great! I like the pair of legs casually strolling by on the lighted square composed of many smaller squares, and also the reflection of the legs on the (wet?) pavement! FAV!
October 23rd, 2015  
The lighting is super :)
October 23rd, 2015  
I love this shot, the lighting is just fantastic.
October 23rd, 2015  
Cool shot!
October 23rd, 2015  
I love the movement you have caught here. Wonderful lighting and reflections! Well done setting it up with Junko and what luck that these legs came by at the right time. Fav!
October 23rd, 2015  
Like the crop/composition, movement and light. Chicago has fantastic photo opportunities, you're so lucky to be right in it. fav
October 23rd, 2015  
Clever capture.
October 23rd, 2015  
Love this

oOOOOOHHH VERY COOL!
October 24th, 2015  
Great colors and movement and you got them well in step

I love how this shot captures motion!
October 24th, 2015  
@pamknowler These are all spots that we'll go to when you're here. I think you'll have a great time and end up with so many images it will keep you busy for years!!
October 24th, 2015  
Fantastic choice of the place for the motion blur.
October 24th, 2015  
@taffy every time I look at your fabulous photos I think "must get more memory cards and more space on my computer (read New computer) for all those photos I will be taking" just hope some of your knowledge rubs off on me! Lol!
October 24th, 2015  
Pam, you're not the only one 'looking & learning'!
October 24th, 2015  
So creative to see this.
October 24th, 2015  
Great light and display of motion
October 24th, 2015  
I just love the way you've captured this Taffy it's very impressive. Fav
October 24th, 2015  
fun to think that you were practicing, as it were, for a spontaneous street moment. Something very deep about that.
October 24th, 2015  
@pamknowler yes definitely!! And easy to get stuff here too of course.
October 24th, 2015  
A wonderfully captured moment in the lights. It's nice meeting up with friends it's the best thing about photography having someone to share with. FAV
October 24th, 2015  
A super capture, great lighting and reflection. Fav!! 😃
October 24th, 2015  
Very cool.
October 24th, 2015  
Love this! Fav
October 24th, 2015  
@francoise Haha!! You're right...the exact opposite of spontaneous in a way, but still, it was as I'd have missed the shot if I didn't know which settings to use as they went by sooo quickly.
October 24th, 2015  
Very creative. Love the light and reflections
October 24th, 2015  
You saw a great opportunity for a unique photo and then captured it! Nicely done.
October 24th, 2015  
Very cool shot
October 24th, 2015  
Great street shot. Fav
October 24th, 2015  
Great strategy in pre planning the image,awesome capture!
October 24th, 2015  
Meg
It turned out great....as we whispered, "There's someone! Quick take the picture!"
October 24th, 2015  
Fabulous capture, I love it. Sometimes when you try to stage a photo it doesn't work, so you were definitely in the right place at the right time to capture a natural photo. Well spotted. fav.
October 25th, 2015  
love this!
October 25th, 2015  
Very creative Taffy, love the lighting!
October 25th, 2015  
Great capture!
October 25th, 2015  
Cool shot.
October 25th, 2015  
@onewing You're right on target with your comment. The ones of Junko's feet were just fine -- but this one, where they were naturally walking and not posing for me at all really captured movement in a different way and made the shot look not-so-technical and more of a moment-in-time.
October 25th, 2015  
Love it.
October 25th, 2015  
Wonderful shot. So unusual, and yet so simple. Well seen.
October 25th, 2015  
pam
love the movement!!!!
October 25th, 2015  
Awesome capture, in fact great and a Fav!!
October 25th, 2015  
@genesis_one Corrie, thanks so much for the fav!
October 26th, 2015
