PotW 5 October 2010

[the foto fanatic]

The image I have chosen for PotW is the type that I really love, but don't see too often. Here it is.



I love it when a picture tells a story. Rel spotted the story immediately - she posted:

Great spotting - particularly taken with #3 = homeless man reading the paper where the headline is "A place called home" - almost heartbreaking ....

This image reminds me of the sort of reportage style we used to see in magazines like "Life", and it's photography at its most basic and simple - recording life and telling a story to others.

Well done Matt. Here's a link to the original post.

Matt never fails to impress with the quality of his sight, and of his insight.

Trevor, superb selection.

Even if this was a setup shot, it couldn't have been done better! [Bows down]

Matt - to me, photography is all about timing, and this is spot on - congratulations :)

This is a fine example of why we must not let street photography die
