Beware the curse of the Street Photographer !
I’ve been throwing a frame around everyday life for longer than I care to remember but the one trick I have never learned is how to use the off switch that controls my inner picture seeing radar !
I’m not complaining as my “Picture Radar” is a work in progress and has been years in the making but it can be a nuisance !
The recent heat wave has reduced my tolerance of most things , excessive heat does not inspire me to make “Street” pictures, all I want is a cool breeze, cold drinks , ice cream and my shopping trips to be nothing more than “Shopping Trips” !
The trouble is I can’t drive past a decent view or “forget” to carry a camera everywhere , this Street Photography malarkey has become an affliction, it will happen to you too , if your not careful !
I was on my way to the shops when I spotted this shadow of a chair , its just a shadowy chair I thought but I could not drive past ?
It became a photograph of a shadowy chair !
Have a good weekend and stay safe…
