I stopped by the Ritz Camera near work the other day to buy a battery (hey big spender!) They have a big, colorful fake camera that takes up the better part of a display window, and I started playing with taking photos of it.Labels: Canon S90, Humor, Ritz Camera, Street Photography

Steve,
This is a fun composition. The timing of the person walking by and turning to look at you taking the shot is perfect.

Great timing! This could be an advertisement for something :)

This also reminds me of those James Bond movie opening sequences where they show Bond walking in front of the barrel of a gun (from the point of view of looking through the gun's barrel).

;-) Warren - the James Bond thing is also what I saw once I edited it.

Well done Kash, nice feeling of the scene and her distant thoughts, especially in the first with the sleeping dog.

Hi Kash, welcome to the gang!
Very nice photos, especially the 2nd one.
Very nice street capture, great portrait of second one...
Lena,
I like the repeated elbow bends that point at her sitting there behind the bench. << Great expressions in both.
Lea beat me to it! I also noticed the circle of elbows and knees (even the dog's), which made image #1 interesting to look at. I also like the woman's expression in #1. That's why I like #1 more the #2.

Haha! I was wondering if any of you would catch the fact that there are more elbows than faces in that image! I was about to crop the dog and the elbows out but decided to leave them in there because of the repetition of elbows.
Keshav: technically, in order for it to be a REAL Strangers Project entry, you needed to introduce yourself, ask permission to take her picture (the subject knowingly lets you take the picture) and find out her name and some interesting fact about her! Try that next time. It's okay to leave the tag on this one, we're not that strict. :)
