A charity collector stops to watch street entertainers on Patrick's Street last October. The orange and red costume stands out just a little bit next to the dark clothing of those around him.
I almost jumped with glee when I saw this scene in front of me but the image itself paled when viewed later. The background buildings were too sharp so using layers and a layer mask I blurred the background and cropped the image a little.
Black and White Photography magazine has two articles on street photography this month.
"Pavement art" by Eileen Martin is a good overview of the genre with some great photos by members of street photography site, In Public.
Juan Buhler is interviewed by Mike Johnston and shows off some of the great photos from his photoblog, Water Molotov. I've been subscribed to his street photoblog feed for a few months now although he only publishes thumbnails via RSS unfortunately.
