PHOTO DESCRIPTION
Certain part of Klong toei are a true labyrinth. I often lost my way there,  it is maybe one of things which it is interesting in street photography. The place is dark and the smell not always good, but I like walking in these alleys on the meeting of people.

je choisis celle ci par le mouvement et le gestuelle de la fillette au premier plan, du dynamisme ici, et la tranquillité "zen" de la femme à l'enfant derrière contraste tant!

Une photo qui donne vraiment envie d'aller à leur rencontre. J'imagine parfaitement ce labyrinthe avec ces trois perspectives. La fille au fond et en flou contrastent avec les deux autres personnes, plus relax. La compo est superbe!!

J'imagine la femme assise regardant vers le point de fuite vers la gauche, wowww, l'équilibre aurait été parfait (ça fait trop de gens qui te regardent, en plus des affiches :o)))

Je découvre peu à peu tes photos, c'est un vrai plaisir, merci.

Fly at the top of his game here with a thrillingly complex shot that somehow hangs together. This is the work that inspires and makes us want to go out there and SHOOT something really worthwhile. Tilted and perfectly balanced at the same time, like a great Winogrand shot...

Glad I haven't lost this, Fly... have been looking at it so long before when not in the mood of commenting... this is SO beautiful, so wonderfully innocent, the child's softly blurred swinging arms in the foreground anchoring the entire shot. Beautiful, another gem...
Wishing you a magical new year

amazing streetshot Fly, really special stuff.  the triangular compo of the people and the tilt is beautiful--but it's the expressions and body language that make it special.  Too bad about the chopped off hand, but wow on the dynamic motion of the girl.

A happy shot for the holidays!

Hi Simon....I think you are more into free style shooting.....and here in this photograph the elements have come together graciously....i like the way you have managed to juxtapose the 'street corner' along with the human characters...and you b&w is usually nice with their tonality...

Excellent Simon!! There is soo much beauty here...the playful girl walking past in motion blur contrasts well with the seriousness of the boys' face on the bench.

Composition wise I don't think it can be done any better really...there's dynamism and depth...and lets not forget that perfect b&w conversion.

A fav

All the best
Steve

Beautifully dynamic, Simon.  Placing the child at the corner with this woman entering and the others waiting with mellow expression provide a balancing act.  Beautiful photography.
