Your Favorite Street Photo You Made

One more from me:

This one hasn't garnered too much interest in the gallery but I like it. I think it's funny that the Camaro (an intimidating car) seems to be silently stalking the man as he's about to pass a sign giving him a warning.
 
can I add a few more?

the man's fingers quoting the sign on the left are a good example of the little 'games' I like to play in photography.

hands are important in general, I think, as they are our primary and most basic media.

and one more thing that I'm very passionate about is compositional seesaws, like these, maybe...

...or, simply put, the 'odd' stuff.

sorry if I'm sort of 'flooding' the thread, but there really isn't 'the one picture' I (or anyone else I know of) have taken, so I figured I might draw a little circle around it (although I certainly have forgotten a picture or two that I've taken that would fit the whole thing better)...

cheers

This shot was taken last fall at Union Square in Manhattan. Across the street in the background and juxtaposed against the sign is a Whole Foods, mother of all consumeristic grocery stores.

Does consumeristic mean, "I can afford to buy higher quality food"? When I lived on the Upper West Side, Zabar's was my favorite consumeristic grocery. Now it's Whole Foods. :eek:
 
Yeah, let's keep this thread alive!

@Simon: I hope you got inspired by Bresson's Pickpocket for stealing images only and not for being robbed... Hats off for most of your pics!

Attached my humble contribution of what the s.t.r.e.e.t thread is about.

(not wanting to continue this one without a picture).

It's fascinating to see how many interpretations there are of what could be called Street Photography. Here are some of my favorite street shots, all from my recent Oktoberfest series:
