The Streets

For this project I knew for sure that I wanted to do street photography. I thought it would be fascinating to go out and photograph people interacting on the streets. I felt the best way to capture Utah streets was by going to Salt Lake City since it is the most "city-like" place around, and the diversity seen there would make the whole experience a lot more interesting.

  1. In theory this is a good idea. I don't see how photo 2 fits in. The last one in my opinion embodies the idea of the post.

  2. Great look at Salt Lake. It makes me look at the city in a different way! Great job!

  4. you are much braver than I am... I went to salt lake to take pictures once... I like yours better. :) I think the angle on the last picture makes it my favorite.

  5. I like the way the city is rendered as not too abstract, but an element of the lives of all these people.

  6. i love the shot with the woman laughing. this is why we do street photography - to capture the person in a single shot. the laugh gives us a much better idea of who she is than her outfit does.

  7. I echo beau's comment. The lines of the elevators give the shot an amazing perspective too.

  8. Nice essay. I feel like some of the photos really capture a great moment. Others are a little more static, but overall it is a nice makeup of people and landscape.

  10. I love all the color in these photos. Cities are meant to be vibrant and you captured it.

  11. I'll agree with Ben that I feel photo 2 is less interesting, probably because it doesn't have people in it. The second to last is my favorite, expressly for the human interest.
