[Dr. Harout]

Yildiz, nice photo! Thanks for posting.

Everyone, feel free to post here!

I'll second that.

Here are a couple from South by Southwest (SXSW). I took advantage of the opportunity, as I was really in Austin for a wedding. Hope you enjoy! John

Good photos. Looks downtown somewhere, maybe 6th Street?

I had forgotten that SXSW was going on now since I am out of town. For those who don't know, here is some info about SXSW:

I finally have a photo for Dr. Harout's thread!

One of the florists on our streets. She was kind and shy..and all smiles.

Definitely worth the wait.

I would like the photo just as a picture, but you have captured her personality in a way that adds much, much more to the image, IMO.

Very, very nice.

With best wishes,

Henry- Thanks for those links.. It was thoughtless of me to not explain what SXSW is. This was my first time to go to it.
I wish I could have spent more time during the day there, but Dannelle called me to get some last minute items for the wedding, so I had to leave early. I did, however, go Friday night until about 3am with my other brother in law. Luckily he is a photog too, so we get along well..
You are correct about it being 6th street. Several blocks are closed off for the festival.
I really enjoyed taking these shots. I'm gonna work on doing it more often. Here are a couple more..
P.S. I saw at least 10 people using DSLRs for video during my time in Austin.

Just something I saw at the post office yesterday...

Whoops! Must have been in a rush for a passport. Now I bet he really wants to leave town!!

Thanks Tom,

You're very kind. I'll try to post more as I get more accustomed to photographing people of the streets...


Good ones from all! That doggie walker has a style! I'm glad barging into the post offices with super fast vehicles is not a customery street happening and I'm glad our local post office is at the basement of a local shopping mall in case some drivers find this photo inspiring.

John, those are very colourful, youthful and cheerful street photos.

Definitely worth the wait.

I had this image in December 2009 on a Jodhpur road-side.
Thanks for viewing.

Hi Arun - I like the picture, and the blown-out background - well done for revitalising the thread.

I hope I am not too late in the game....

Here's a Turkish kilim restoration expert, working in the street, for the better light more than any other reason:
