Street Shoot - the shoot.




I really love the angle of this photo and the detail and texture of the steps on the stairs. The lines of the bars on the railing, steps and overall shape of the staircase I find really appealing.










I loved the structure of this building, so I had to capture it along with the piercing blue paint, though chipped and old, still beautiful and vibrant. The green shrubs and plants against the run down blue building also keep the color popping.


It as really difficult shootingin this area of New Westminster, because as interesting of an environment it was, it wasn't very active, therefore making it even more difficult for me to photograph complete strangers. The people I tried to take pictures of were seemingly grumpy people and some of them would walk away or turn their backs. Poo-poo heads :P

  2. I really like both of these photos!
    The detail of the steps really make the picture "pop" and the second photo with how old the building looks, all chipped and stuff , still vibrant with color and your right, it does make the green shrubs pop!

  4. this photo gives me a good emotional connection. i feel like im back in ireland when i look at this photo.. because there are a lot of areas where every building has that same old and tattered look.
