Corner View: Street Photography

24 February 2010 Filed In: corner view, tribeca



During the break between my classes today, I ran out for a street photography session- ok, and maybe a cappucino, too.

It’s gray skies here. By chance, these are quite literally street photographs since the most colorful pictures were drawn on the street itself. They popped up in the many puddles that we will surely be out in later, wearing our dinosaur boots and jumping around.
My pick for a theme: miniature worlds
Take a stroll down other streets:

    These are great! It looks like it was a very contemplative break:)
    I shared your view of 'street photography' as taking pics of the street itself.
    Thanks for your comment, I smiled that you found the writing on the roads 'cozy', I feel that way too and wondered maybe it is something of a New York sensibility…

    Love it! The pictures make me think of spring, though I suspect it is still cold there (since it in here 6 hours south!!). Hope all is well with you. Love your comment!!
