I don't consider myself a street photographer at all, but I do admire the work of those who practice street photography and street portraiture. I particularly like the work of Bob Dein, whose blog can be seen here. He posts his work to the "100 Strangers" Flickr group as well as to a number of other photo centric websites. I met Heather during our "Switch to Manual" photo walk. She noticed a group of photographers taking pictures, and was concerned that something was wrong. I insured her that everything is fine, and that were were all part of a photography workshop, and just out practicing around the neighborhood. She was relieved to hear that. I then asked if she'd let me take her portrait. She graciously agreed. Thank you, Heather!
Hey! A portrait! Good one, Ed. See? It didn't hurt, did it?
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jack. She did't even bite. It was a a little easier, in that she approached us to ask what was going on, so she broke the ice so to speak.
