Take the shot! (Weekend Street/Reflections # 57)

 

Newtown, Pennsylvania

This is from four or five years ago when I was living in Pennsylvania. I noticed the woman having trouble getting the family to smile so I stood behind her and took their picture which made them laugh. Unfortunately for her, she turned to look at me instead of taking the shot. I tried to help. 😀

Gente di Trastevere/People of Trastevere (Weekend Street/Reflections # 56)

 Rome, Italy

When I saw these people sitting in a bar in the Trastevere neighborhood in Rome one evening in 2016, it reminded me of a rare old street photo book from the early 1960s called "Gente di Trastevere by Carlo Bavagnoli."

                                           

                                           Here's some pictures from the book, what do you think?

Night Stalker ( Weekend Street/Reflections # 55)

 Venice, Italy

Can you see the shadowy figure under the light at the top of the stairs? As the fog rolled in it felt like I'd stepped into a film noir or a horror movie. 

Have a great weekend!

Ned's Cigars (Weekend Street/Reflections # 54)

 Newtown, Pennsylvania

This was a spur-of-the-moment "street portrait." Without any forethought, I walked into the shop, said hello, snapped the picture, and left. I heard him laughing as I walked away. 

Have a great weekend!
