Young music idol

[thegman]

These shots were taken whilst walking aroung the streets of Glasgow, where the Commonwealth games are currently taking place and the city is buzzing, athletes, sportsmen / women, spectators from all over the world walking about enjoying the smells and sounds of this great city. This young guy had about 10 young girls waiting for his performance. All c&c gratefully received.

#1. The newbie.


#2. The veteran.

#3. The ladies touch.

I really like how the first one shows the city in the background and the girl's look of anticipation on the musician's left side. Consider placing a very slight vignette around the musician, just enough to focus our attention on him.

All nicely captured street shots, Gerry. The photos have some certain rawness about them that I really like. Although I don't always agree with the common rubrics of street photography, i.e. one should avoid processing and enhancing images of street, I feel that you've left some "imperfections" on your images to give a sense of raw beauty to the viewers. Btw, I think the girls were more interested in the singer's hair than his music :-)

Good set, Gerry. In the first shot, the guy seems to be taking himself more seriously than the music; while the guy in the second looks like he has given himself to the raw emotion of the music. In the third shot, the woman appears to be playing for simple pleasure of it. Well captured.

What he said...^^^

I was late to this show and I agree with Greg. Good street photography...

Beautiful captures; excellent series!!

John, thanks for your comments.

Gerry, this one for me is the best. I love how people are surrounding him. IMHO, I think it tells a more powerful story.

Hi Gerry, sorry for being a bit late I like your images and I agree with John and Rob that #1 is nicer with more surroundings

[thegman]

Rob, until now I never noticed how the ''older'' guy on the left looks so dismisssive
