My pictures
I looked for people , buildings or situations that we do not see every day. What I find impressive about street pictures is that photographers can create something ”basic” into something original they see things differently. I tried to do the same thing, see the world differently to succeed I changed the angles to create object longer or larger . When I was walking I saw a man in a robe I thought it was very strange to be honest we don’t really see that everyday so I took the opportunity. Even if the man run fast I caught the moment and now I have a original picture. I don’t have a favourite image I think their all different I can’t compared them. I’m happy for results.
Great…well done. This is clear and purposeful with a sound level of creativity too.
