Thursday Street Thread May 1st

Thursday's Street Thread' is just a bunch of us showing some of their street photography and talking about it.

This thread is not about whether you like street photography as a genre, or whether it even exists as a genre. It is all about photographic images and their merits or faults within the genre. Constructive criticism is the key word. Please, comment on the images, and post your street photos for the constructive comments of others.

There's no membership requirement, no criteria, no voting, and no limit to the number of photos posted. The only 'rule' is that Thursday's Street Thread is about commenting on other people's pictures at least as much as it is about showing your own.

If you can, post images as thumbnails or attachments rather than as full-scale images, to keep the thread readable and fast-loading and to keep the server load low.

Anybody can start the thread on a Thursday morning.

Anybody can join in.
 
After waiting 11 (!!) days for the lab to get my photos done, I can contribute again:

Thanks Todd.
Nice contrast in your one. I also like the parking house in the background, that's typically American and looks not very safe. ;-)


Here's another (not very Street like, but rather HCB-ish) from me:

The XP2 comes very creamy from the lab. Is that also your general experience? Or just from my picked lab?

Nice shots, I like the second shot Florian, street shooting has changed abit since HCB, now most people shoot within 5 feet or less. I think there's a place for those kind of shots in the current street theater.

I've been reading some stuff over at Flickr on the "Hardcore Street Photography" discussion page concerning critiques on street shooting. Over there people post images for critique and a few of the mods give advice, some of it's helpful but some advice seems to be in moulding what their vision of street photography is. Not that it's wrong but they seem to be too confining in their vision. What do yall think?

Talk amongst yourselves...

Thank you, Todd. Very well said. I'll take a look at the discussion mentioned.

nightfly, I like your third photo very much. The first is also very good. :)


Sadly there were no people on this place when I came to it. After this I roamed along:
