Doing it the lazy way

A very convenient way of doing street photography, instead of permanently walking, is sitting down with something to drink and shoot the same spot whenever someone passes by. Here are five anonymous pictures taken in ten minutes.

Another JPG Submission

I just had an idea for another submission. The theme is titled "Fashion" in a wider sense - not necessarily pictures of cloths.

Creative license

Creative license is about finding the boundaries of what you can do with photography. We would like to explore images here that are the abstract edge of what is considered photography. For this theme, think about a photo as a design, composing with lines, patterns, geometry, contrast, saturation, simplicity and complexity. How can you think differently about what photography means and take creative license?

I cannot say that I 100% understand what the people of JPG Magazine had in mind when they came up with this theme, but I submitted this photograph. This is a theme for the next issue of JPG Mag and is sponsored by Adobe. That means besides money and a free magazine subscription, there are also Adobe software packages for the lucky ones who make it.


The image shows alternately concave and convex bent windows reflecting and distorting another building. I photographed this in Downtown LA two years ago.
