    Street

    Here are four of my favorite street shots. I’ve been doing street photography, at first without knowing that’s what it was, since 1953 when I was flying fighter-bombers out of Taegu. After the war ended I was able to go downtown and shoot pictures of people interacting with other people and with their environment. I’ve been doing that ever since.

    Notice that of these four pictures, only one actually includes a street.

    I like the Tavern one, Russ.  I remember a few times where I walked out of a tavern and took the position.  The image says a lot. Nice to see you posting here again.

    I’m not sure I’d want to know WHAT’s in that coffee… Well seen.

    These are really good.  I love the guy on one bench looking at the women on the other.  All of these have a story that stops a viewer to look closer.

    Another one of my all-time favorites: “San Francisco Street Vendor,” in the late sixties.
