Viewbook Photostory
Viewbook Photostory is a contest featuring documentary and conceptual photography. nevertheless you can also find some street photo sets there.
Contest Submissions
Two sets caught my attention. they're pretty similiar. both are about subways, but two different cities.
"Metropolitan (Subway): means of transportation, urban, on rails, characteristic of big cities; it joins the urban center with the suburbs and lies on a site that is proper to it, generally underground, on the ground or on an elevated surface. It is thusly defined by the dictionary.
I define it as a place."
the first set is called "Metro" by Marco Simola. There are alot of photos. sure a few not so interesting but keep flickering through it until the end or you'll miss some really great captures. this way
the second set called "My Subway/My paranoid city" by Lui Rincon. The photos were taken back in 2005 when he was visiting his hometown, New York. this way

'The Beggar, always present' by Lokisb
1. First of all, what's your name and where do you live?
Santiago Billy, Antigua Guatemala (Guatemala)
2. Do you remember when and where this photo was taken?
Jan 1, 2008, 4:09:38 PM, Essaouira (Morocco)
3. Did you went out shooting street that day or did you just have a camera with you by coincidence as you saw it?
I went out shooting with my dad that day (I tend to carry my camera most of the time with me specially on vacation)
4. What made you take this photo? Any story you want to tell with it?
At first I was walking then I saw the man just entering the walls of the city, so I decided to take the picture. The story behind would be that I was just looking for people to photograph and I saw this scene.
5. How did you compose it? Any post-processing?
As for the composing I just bent my knees and shot. The post processing was a greyscale conversion using adobe lightroom, I minor changed the contrasts highlights and no cropping.
6. How makes it feel you now? What do you think when you look at it? Do you still like it? Anything you think you could have done better?
It makes me feel that back-light can be so powerful. When I look at it the picture I feel is telling me to take more pictures, improve myself and don't get stagnated. Yes, I like it. While picturing street maybe just take other photographs, that's what I saw in that moment in time. So to do things better its just about moving your feet and take other pictures.
Make sure to visit his deviantART gallery as well as his website.

some polaroids
This photo immediately grabbed my attention, so I really wanted to share it with you just as I saw it. But then, looking at more and more photos of James D. Griffioen, I decided to blog a whole article about his work.
If you're interested, he has also done some documentary series about his hometown Detroit, which he calls 'the disappearing city'. Want to know why? Visit his website. James Griffioen also owns a blog and a flickr account.

my photos
Black and white are the colors of photography.
Robert Frank
I had some black and white films developped, and these are part of the result. It was really fun to look at the images because the photos were taken quite a while ago, the oldest ones were from the end of 2008. These light/shadows I actually love - they were taken during one sunny afternoon. I had taken my camera to school and afterwards I was walking through the town, waiting and looking out for photos. It was amazing, and if it's amazing, then the photos can't turn out so bad... fun is what it's all about.

"Back On The Street!"
Hello,
It's been quite a while since i've posted on here, but i've finally got some half decent photographs to post, plus some other websites to rave about which i'll post another time ...
Me & my girlfriend Claire went to Rye in East Sussex and I got very engrossed in taking photos and looking for little details and even some standard tourist shots, but I post some on here and see what you think :)
Joe.
