Street Portraits 1

St. Patrick's Parade 14

Anyone who has read this blog knows that I love to make street portraits. Approaching people like this is scary for some of us but I've been trained how to do it. My day job has given me extra experience in chatting up strangers.

These were taken up and down Market Street during the big parade last weekend. A few more tomorrow, I think.

    I enjoyed them all Bob, but the intensity of expression in the second shot is beautifully captured. Nice work.

    Your top two are very good, Bob. The first one is largely of your creation, the second was seeing the two faces.
