9-21-11 photo of the Day

This was also taken on Sunday, been feeling under the weather so I haven't been out to shoot in a few days.. I hope I feel better tomorrow so I can go out and shoot a little.

  1. I really like this pic. I like how it forces the eye exactly where you, the photographer, demand that it go.

    But if you wanted to do a silly version, you should totally photoshop the head of the creature from Alien in the dude's pocket he's holding open. Or maybe a picture of a gallbladder.

  2. Love it, smooth tones and lovely textures, kid is adorable, and sort of in line with Sharona's train of thought, I offer this Caravaggio painting...

  3. Nice image. Gives me that feeling of strolling along with the crowd. The little girls face makes it though.

  4. @ Michael: thanks for the laugh. You definitely elevated my initial concept.

  5. Gerry, I think I was too tired last night to fully express, but I have my vocabulary wits about me now: You've got a vanishing point, what with the shape of the crowd and also up between the buildings, where I want to drift at first glance. But your depth of field wrenches me back to that darling face staring right at the soul. (Of course, then I pop over to Jesus in a Windbreaker, but just for a moment, then back to that face.) Great job again. Question: did you produce as much black and white before moving to London?

  6. Thanks all for the wonderful comments I like how you feed each off each other.

    Before London I did very little black and white. I feel that street photography is grimy and for me it needs to be in Black and White.
