Lost in Translation

Weekly Photo Challenge: FRIENDSHIP

Once again Ms Rosso made me do something I had never done before. The weekly challenge said: “friendship” so I grabbed my camera and went for a tour of my neighbourhood.

It is the first time that I took a shot at street photography and not being looked suspiciously upon, or being scolded as a stalker, I have to admit I had fun taking these pics.

Stories of friendship from my neighbourhood park…

    I really love this! You can capture friendships by just looking around. Great take on the challenge. I may have to try street photography some time. 🙂

    Very apt shots, and to think that you achieved this many good examples of friendship in just one evening walk. Well done (nice song too)!

    Welcome to the world of street photography.

    Love your choices. Fun, unguarded, natural. I know the feeling of trying to quickly take pictures of random strangers who inspires us with what they do. It’s both exciting, scary, with bits of thrill. Overall, yes it is fun. that’s the beauty of spontaneity. Thanks.
