Share Six | Street Photography

This month’s theme is way out of my comfort zone.  I suppose though, that is one of the reasons for Share Six…to stretch our creativity and improve our photography skills.  For my first two photos, I went downtown to try to find some inspiration.  It became a bit of an eventful evening with the employees of Jimmy Johns begging us to get dollar subs, then some guys trying to photobomb my pictures, and then a drunk man getting mad at me for taking pictures.  He was worried I was taking pictures of him.  And this is why I take my husband with me most of the time.  You never know what you’ll run into.  Haha

For my last 4 photos, I took some images at the Dutch Days Festival.  It worked out really well that we had this field trip.  It made for a great opportunity to get some pictures.  I’ve only been to this festival one other time, but I knew I just had to see the klompen dancing. It is so fun to watch and would be great to capture.  I even leaned over and told my daughter that she should go learn to klompen dance, but what I really meant is that our whole family should.  Think of how much fun that would be, and how hilarious it would be. (My daughter and I aren’t that coordinated.)

  1. Katherine – these are great and I am happy that you were willing to go out and shoot street. I have had those odd moments when people are not too happy to see the camera go up but I am glad you had your husband with you. I love the first shot with just the feet and line up in the street of the dancers.

  2. Good for you, stepping out of your comfort zone! Your sammie sign shot is my fave. So do you think you’ll shoot more street in the future, for fun?! =)

  3. The colors here are absolutely amazing and I just love the one of the Dutch shoes peeking out from under the dress. Always an adventure and I love how you’ve captured it!

  4. I love your take on street photography. The last one of the little boy is my favourite. His little smile is lovely and your composition is great. Just lovely.

  5. That does sound like an eventful evening, Katherine. You can never be too careful when you’re out and about with expensive gear! Great images, nonetheless. I love the ones of feet particularly!
