    The Weekly Street Photography Thread

    Welcome to the street photography weekly thread.
    We are hoping to get your images and hear what other members think about them.
    It is open to all members of the forum; members can post a single image or a selection of images on a theme in a single post. Multiple posts are allowed.
    What constitutes street photography has always been debatable. There are several opinions about it, and we do not want to restrict participants. You can post whatever you deem fits into the genre; however, please be prepared to hear criticism as well.

    Guidelines:
    1. We aim to increase the popularity of street photography and encourage our fellow photographers to be more interested in the genre.
    2. Give your photo a title and include any other information you think is relevant. I personally love to know why you made this photo, what attracted you to make it, and why you like it. But this is NOT MANDATORY.
    3. A single image or a theme-based group of images are allowed. No multiple posts, please.
    4. If you post an image, that means you are ready to hear feedback.
    5. We want to hear your thoughts about others’ posts.
    6. Please keep all posts civilised and polite.
    7. Unless specifically stated otherwise by the original poster, please do not modify the images.

    Here's a posed street photo. This is a guy who lives on the streets in the French Quarter, but I've never seen him asking for donations. He asked to have his photo made. His buddy and the dog are less interested in the picture taking but equally friendly.

    I think the dog particularly lifted your composition here. I must say I have found the colour processing a bit too strong, but it is only a personal preference.

    The orange traffic lines add a neat geometric composition feature. With a 28mm lens you are pretty close. That might make bikers a little nervous. This bunch seems ok with it

    Sweet photo. The purple umbrella and dog add a lot. I like the whimsical nature of this photo.
