Hello everyone – time to share some Street Photography. Sarah (at art expedition) is celebrating her blog anniversary (3 years) this week – go here for more info. It is a seven-day challenge, done in black and white –
which I am unable to do both this week (added one black and white).
So my goal here (hoping it is okay) is to join her with a “Saturday feast of photos” to at least connect with her third day of the week-long street photography challenge.Β
Please join me today for an eatery theme:
This DC restaurant felt European to me. The sun was beaming down and washed it out a bit – but i like something about this shot – ?
Now the rest of the photos are from the Richmond, VA area. I call this shot “GENERATIONS” – see all the different ages of people? And note that an old man (right) and old lady (left) help frame the shot.Is this a “doll” face? Porcelain skin….
I have to pause this post to eat – be back soon. (kidding)
Cool waiter dude… (notice the Virginia beer brochure in his pocket? – Virginia pride, baby)This is my Black and White image to join in with Sarah’s Day 3
Last week I shared a photo of a bartender with a frown (here) and below:
but she did smile – and this photo here shows it:
Shopping bags and then a quick Sit in the shade…
Two Street musicians (upper right)belted out songs from Train (yes, we gave them our eatery leftovers and they were grateful – and we were grateful for the acoustic background music)The man in the truck has his drink on the run – as he delivers Maryland Cookies to our area. I like the summer blooms surrounding his truck and the little details here (shadows, lines, sky, etc.) feel layered. Even the bit of two chairs add something – hm….
Thanks for viewing
These photos all from July and I already have some NEW streets shots from August and hope to share them later – and I will follow the rules better and have some black and white ready to go.Β
Peace
Oh and here is one of the Train songs that the street musicians played:
That is what I thought too!! And I get that is what they were going for because that is sneaky constructed eatery (across from a big ol new Wegmans store) and it is all about “experience” these days
From one Viriginian to another! ( my place name is similar to the American state.)
People shots are always so entrancing. It is like telling a story! Thanks for sharing, Yvette.
The D.C. eatery really does carry a European feel, Y. Oh, wait, Iβve never been to Europe. But that sure is how I imagine it!
I really like the photo with the two-plate carrying server smack in the middle. It is quite cheery to me.
Have a great Sunday!
Wonderful shots, Y! There’s a definite European feel in the first one, I think it’s the arches, they’re very Italian looking. And I like the generations shot! And that’s definitely a doll face with perfect porcelain skin.π The waiter dude pic is really cool, I like the dynamics in this shot! Happy photographing! π
Photographer Artist Philosopher Labor Location is a purpose anagram of collaboration which seeks to place collaboration in one instance as a labor of photographing or the actions that constitute photgraphing and of course these actions are determined by movement or charm with its reference to the body and bodies which in a changing private public sphere enact an ethical dimension. The second instance of collaboration is the results of photographing which in general will be street photography and the collaboration between photographer and camera. You could say that it is a proccess performance.
Very inviting.β€
