Street Photography #4

Jump to Comments

No one on Tuesday, no one yesterday, and almost no one today until, just as the light was fading, I found these two on Charing Cross Road. They were well dressed, charming and patient while I fumbled with camera and waited for the 95896 people on the street to go past so I could take the pictures. Lovely.

Her face is blurred, which is a pity, but her expression is lovely and I do still like this photograph -  particularly for the bicycle shadow on the wall behind her.

The light was fading so fast that by the time I took this (only about a minute later) it was already quite dark. A lot of the detail on his coat is lost, but if anything it emphasises his silhouette. He looked like he could be in the book/film Absolute Beginners.
