A favorite one of mine:

Cheers,

Emil,

A perfectly timed thread :)

I haven't seen the one from you before. Its a refreshingly uncomplicated shot but there is enough going on to hold the viewers interest. I'd say it's 'classic street' :)

Nicely done,

Paul

This is probably my favorite

However, these faithful patrons of Dress For Less are not to be forgotten...

And then there is true street photography...

That's a cute one Emil. When was it taken?

It's not a very edgy visual spectacle with lots of quaint details going on and ironic connotations which is so common in contemporary street, hence it addresses another level of observation and mindfulness I quite like it! Good going.
 
I'm horrible at doing 'Projects'. I have a drifting mind. I should though. My point being, single photos seldom represent a body of work or an idea well. Very iconic photos like the ones form Capa and Bresson guide entire schools of thought on their own, but few other photographers come into such a position.

Anyway, I've selected a few partially because they are so dissimilar and perhaps by doing so no expectation of context can be had

the first is excellent and ageless wonderful image. the second much more modern and edgy and again really good I love it.

the last is daring and almost brutal in its honesty all three of these are for me first rate street

A favorite one of mine:
Definitely a favourite of mine too Emil.
Not necessarily favourites as such, but (I think) they each have something of interest in them. The more I try to do 'street' photography the harder I'm finding it. I'm trying to be much more selective in finding something of interest in a subject and not just people randomly walking about.

Hope these fit the bill Emil:







Very best
Mike
