Whether in Seattle, Strasbourg, Kyiv or Paris, break dancing has had

more than one revival in thirty or even forty years. Here a youth in a

city the name of which hardly matters, takes a moment to perfect a

variety of break dancing moves including the one seen, captured at

very high shutter speed. Your ratings, critiques and observations are

invited and most welcome. If you rate highly, very critically, or wish

to make a remark, please submit a helpful and constructive

comment; please share your photographic knowledge to help

improve my photography. Thanks! Enjoy! john

In my view, a little geometry (in the traditoinal sense) often can help a 'street photo'.

 

Cartier-Bresson talked about 'gometrie' but when he did, he used it I think for sure as a synonym for 'composition' and not true 'geometry' as Americans use it that term as a 'mathematical discipline or construct', though for Cartier-Bresson his 'geometrie' was a very substantial, personal and highly-homed dscipline that also sometimes involved highly-developed traditional 'geometry' in the American sense.
