This amazing image looks like a photo manipulation until you look at it closely and find out that the arrows are colored scotch-tape. Perfect timing for the strongest impact.

Beautiful geometry, the man in the circle reminds me of Leonardo Da Vinci's Vitruvian Man.

About
Umberto Verdoliva was born in Castellammare, Naples, Italy, in 1961 and currently lives in Treviso. He holds a degree in Regional Planning and Urban Design and works for an international construction company.
Photography is his passion and he enjoys the way it can reflect his love for mankind simply by capturing moments of life. His passion for street photography is contagious and over time he has developed an elegant, ironic and sensitive style. His main objective with photography is to transform the ordinary into the extraordinary, to highlight the poetry and the simple feeling of human endeavour.

Specialized in reportage, documentary and street photography, Felix Lupa has worked in social projects for magazines and Television and has taken part in many national and international exhibitions.  
Lately dedicated to street photography, his approach to the genre is to serve 'as "public eye", conveying to us messages of the street's wisdom.

The clever framing of the kid eating an icecream in the arm of the slurping icecream cow makes of an ordinary scene a curious, eye catching and funny one.

Train station by ~cosmin-m
The image suggests many feelings. Melancholy, farewell, solitude (the dog), love (the couple). Beautiful and emotional.

Faceless by ~cedrus
Flawless frame. Three faceless women in the three thirds of the image, all facing away, two gray arms surfacing from the darkness.
An excellent timing and capture.

Love in Paris by ~veftenie
Classic, elegant, iconic frame for a timeless and blissful moment in the city of Love.

This Journal is an Editorial, general one.
Lots of words, few pixels. But, if your bare with me it will (probably) make sense.
Long is the list of Journals and notes about street photography, definitions, tendencies, and all that philosophy that comes with the genre we came to love.
But, as a community, street photographers are in part forgetting to go through the ABC periodically, so that newcomers and enthusiasts can feel comfortable and empowered to taste this misunderstood part of photography.

Alfred Eisenstaedt's V-J Day in Times Square (1945) and Robert Doisneau's Le baiser de l'hotel de ville (1950) are unforgettable kisses.

The FILMIE gallery does include wonderful photos of lovers, and the FILMIE team would like to share them with you.

Because love is everywhere... and also in the streets!

We should not forget that our lives would be so empty without love.

Keep shooting film!

To have narrative, to tell a story, you have to be near the main character(s) in order to put the viewer in the same place.  And if you’re documenting a time and a place your images should look precisely like that.

Like if you were there.
And that’s why the photos you like from the “Master of Photography” look so real (leaving lots of aspects aside, of course): the focal length.

V by :devdjailledie:

The flawless composition, the almost bewitching play of stripes make of this one a stunning photo and a pleasure to the eye.

Headless by :devbagigi:

A headless man and an empty hat. Clever angle and skillful framing. A classy image!

BW242 by :devsagi-k:

Eccentric and surreal image, where the juxtaposition between two kind of  'vehicles' (cars and camel) makes for a funny, truly original and  brilliant photo.

TV by :devjinnger:

A frame inside the frame, a picture inside the picture, isolating and  highlighting the kissing lovers. Beautiful, romantic and brilliant  capture.

To ensure the quality of the content we will mix our own material with really great finds on the internet.

Why 35mm is the focal length we recognize immediately and result so well?
Well, first of all, allows capturing the right amount of contextual background when getting close to the subject, while with a 50mm lens on a full frame you’ll have to be almost on the other side of the street to get a similar result. The longer the focal length, more chances the image will look flat (keep in mind that on a dslr the use of the 24mm gives you 36mm - in average the magnification factor is 1x5 for Nikon, Sony and Pentax and 1x6 for Canon)

It’s a fairly wide length for most situations, to capture an entire scene, but on the other h ]]> http://the-yard-collective.deviantart.com/journal/EVERYBODY-STREET-341127598 http://the-yard-collective.deviantart.com/journal/EVERYBODY-STREET-341127598 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 20:41:27 PST EVERYBODY STREET nonadult journals/personal The-Yard-Collective http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/t/h/the-yard-collective.gif?7 Copyright 2012-2013 #The-Yard-Collective

My son and I were crossing a street through an alley in Al Diyafah - Dubai, when I saw the bicycle and immediately noticed that the blowing air current, along with the excess cargo of flattened and stacked cardboard boxes was making the front wheel rise up from the ground slightly and then descend once the wind subsided.
