Salaryman

Hi Jack,

Excellent example - how to shoot street photographs!

Composition, light/shadow work ... and what else to say?

Well done!,

ZT,

Jack, it is really good to see some new stuff from you after your hiatus. This one is quite dramatic, with the man taking the stage in front of the edifice.

Nice Jack!

The light, the shadows and the direction all come together very nicely. Good timing on your part Jack...........................BR, Holger

A piece of street life in a chic and elegant composition. Perfect timing as Holger observes.

I too am impressed with the lighting, especially the dark area on the left. Perhaps its shape is what grabbed me, since otherwise there seems to be an absence of triangles. The empty bicycle rack is fascinating also. Perhaps it is symbolic of the area the image portrays not being overly safe. Finally, your click of the shutter allowed the man who is or is not earning his salary by walking has him stepping out of the dark. Perhaps things are looking up.- - My best always, michael

Hi Jack, Great light and moment, walk strong.

Great composition and light, really good shot. Have you tried converting the shot to b&w?

Mighty good picture, Jack! Not unusual for you! Thank you for your vsit which brought me here! PDE

I've got a sense of Edward Hopper here. Just great in all simplicity.

Very well seen. Love the scenery with the salaryman facing the darkness/ the uncertainty, the dark area. Really high quality street photo!
