Hi again Steemers!
Welcome to the first installment of my second exclusive Steemit mobile street photography series: City Gritty
City Gritty is a series embodying my version of mobile street photography portraits. As opposed to my other series The Light Chasers, City Gritty is all about people – characters -- I pass on the streets who, for one reason or another, compel me to take their photograph. But for me as a mobile photographer, it’s not just about an interesting face. It’s also about how that person occupies their space.
Oh, there are interesting peeps everywhere in a city like New York. The fun and challenge of street photography is capturing them at just the right moment, while making sure the composition is also interesting. Easier said than done.
Those friendly moments: There are times when I’m compelled not only to photograph a person, but to speak with them, too. Perhaps to solve some of the mystery as to why I wanted to photograph them in the first place. It’s not all about the exterior. A person’s character, how they move, or what they wear may catch my eye as a photographer. But sometimes it’s interesting to get the story behind it.
City Gritty is the second of my ongoing photography series here on Steemit! Stay tuned for more…
Hope you enjoyed. Thank you!
