Street Photography | Selecting a Subject
This is a classic street photo. The rainy day mood has been captured perfectly, even
though the people hurrying by are blurred or unrecognizable, like the main figure. The
overview of the street gives the image depth and temporal context. A portrait could
never reveal so much everyday detail.
