STREET 120

I researched street photographers  and found this website it showed me numerous amount of pictures taken from a street photographer. It shows impatient characters and this image particularly shows people waiting at a traffic light in London: This site contains multiple street shots but the shoot STREET 120 stood out to me as it contains a lot of natural imagery.
The following image works really well as the woman in front has no intention of looking at the camera therefore works really well with the people behind her looking towards the camera. I think this image also works really well as the women are arranged in almost a line besides the focus, it gives the impression of impatience because the main focus point is in a rush and therefore doesn't care the camera is facing her. The background behind these women also works really well as the building behind them almost shuts them off from the side road with a pillar. It intrigues the audience as  you only notice the bicycle in the side after looking. The black and white imagery also works well as you cannot decide which time of day it is therefore works well.


  



Another image I found that I took inspiration from would be this:






This image I think was captured at the right moment as the main focus (the woman in the hat) is looking down. This works well as the woman walking towards the camera is holding a DSLR or her own. You can see the photographer has took this shot perfectly as the woman is looking in the window and her reflection is staring back at the camera. It almost looks as if the woman purposely looked into the camera through the reflection as she knew the photographer would like that shot. The woman in the background is also holding her face and they are all spaced apart therefore framing a very nice picture.





This image is one of my favorites and works well as it happens to just be a coincident. They man sat on the steps smoking a cigarette and reading an online book on a device. I like the idea of this image as the imagery of a man sat smoking with a book seems to be an old image that portrays someone who's either worked hard or just cannot be bothered to finish and has taken a break. The fact this older imagery is mixed with the fact he's reading a book on a device contrasts the two idea. The way hiss face isn't seen is an added anonymous identity. Again the rolled up jeans mixed with the Converse trainers seems to work well together and add to the older vibe.





This image is off a man stood in the center of what looks like a fair or sale of some kind on a stall that is selling book. The man has picked up a book and in my mind it creates a story. The man looks like he has started reading the book and has gotten lost in the words. He has completely forgotten about the environment around him and it more interested in the book. It could almost act as a larger representation of the man feeling lost in such a big world and the vast amount of possibilities in his time.

Taking all this into consideration I feel I need to first compose my image and wait. I think if I wait the perfect moment will arise and the image will be complete. Looking through these images has made me more aware of the objects and people behind me and how they can work together to create a fantastic image.
