roelandinho Posted June 18, 2016 Share #124 Posted June 18, 2016 Some very nice images here! I like the last one which is reminding me of a drawing or painting, but I can't remember which one :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Ricoh Posted June 18, 2016 Share #125 Posted June 18, 2016 I like the shot of the 'accidental butcher' ...can almost feel the pain of the sharp knife! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Ricoh Posted June 21, 2016 Share #128 Posted June 21, 2016 Sorry Ned, I don't get the last two you've posted. 1/ Shows the front end of a car, but there's no human presence. Am I missing something? 2/ Is a rather busy shot with poles and signs, but at least people inhabit the space. Is there a message or statement, or am I thinking too deep, or expecting too much? My expectation of street photography is a scene that contains one or people showing their expressions, gestures or interactions, ie the normal things people do but in an interesting way, set against an urban landscape. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NB23 Posted June 22, 2016 Author Share #129 Posted June 22, 2016 Forms and colors, simply. William Eggleston, as the simplest example, comes to mind. At first his work may come across as blunt and empty, but the genius creeps out eventually. I'm in no way emulating his style nor his work (I am not very acquainted with his work) but in front of such scenes with such appealing colors, lines and energy, I simply have to appreciate it. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NB23 Posted June 22, 2016 Author Share #130 Posted June 22, 2016 My style is broad and very open: I shoot everything in every way. I have to, it's my job. Street photography per se is not a thing of people and expressions. I would qualify shooting people's faces and expressions the basic. Street-101 level. Shooting scenes, even empty ones, but which wake an emotion, is a higher level of "street photography". HCB was much more about forms and compositions feelings and not about people's faces. It is the harmony of forms that cause the emotions. Shooting people or close faces just for the sake of it is as anti-street-photography as can be. That's my opinion. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, and the images in this thread are a lot more varied and interesting because of it. This is very nice work.

NB23 Posted June 23, 2016 Author Share #137 Posted June 23, 2016 Great shot. Made me wince and then look closer. Thanks. This is a pic that I like the least. Too basic 101-street-photography. The only thing that I like from it is the butcher's bloody banded hand mixed with the meat's blood. All the rest is amateurish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
euston Posted June 23, 2016 Share #138 Posted June 23, 2016 Thanks. This is a pic that I like the least. Too basic 101-street-photography. The only thing that I like from it is the butcher's bloody banded hand mixed with the meat's blood. All the rest is amateurish. That's what makes the picture but it needs the unhygienic grubbiness of the surroundings to give it context. And the foursquare geometry makes it all seem normal - horribly, disgustingly normal. Amateurish like a fox! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from the butcher's bandaged hand there's harmony and contrast provided by the customer's hand (? we don't know who the other hand belongs to, but assumed to be the case) - mind you if I was the customer I wouldn't get so close, alarm bells would be ringing! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
