    Another wonderful thread.
    I think the Tax Free sign & models, with the person walking along is a great example of this genre.

    Thank you Ole, it was just a child in the crowd looking at Chinese people during Chinese New Year in Paris.

    Re: Street photography

    What a nice expression That black umbrella distracts Jean, but I think you can crop some of it without harming the drawing on the RHS. And may be you can change the color of it to grey I like the image because the man looks happy and he draws people who look happy. So, there seems to be a connection between his mood and his drawings.

    PS. I like the conversion.

    Hi Binnur, you have an hawk eye, I propose 2 versions : the original with a lighter umbrella(+ a lighter face), or with your suggestion. What is the best? (originally the umbrella was red so in conversion it gives a black area)
    mod 1 Street photography

    mod 2 Street photography

    Re: Street photography

    Oh tricky ...

    Mod 1.5 for me

    That's with crop of top and a slightly brighter face, but not quite as bright (low contrast) as "mod 1" is.

    In flicking between them all; trying to decide, I found the white triangle lower right of frame started to attract my attention unduly, partly because it is sharp as well as bright, so if it were mine, I'd try a subtle tone down and blur - barely enough to notice.

    He does have a great expression, well shot.

    Mod 1 for me Jean The umbrella works nicely as a frame and as a part of the environment in mod 1. It is also more obvious in mod 1 that he is a street portraitist and he made the drawing on the RHS. I agree with Dave about toning down the white triangle.

    Re: Street photography

    I think this is the best composition so far Jean . IMO the portrait looks so contrasty and detailed that it competes with the man, so may be the tones need some more balancing with your skillful hands

    the quality of the sketch is the result of his art, I only transcribe his talent........but I'll try to reduce the quality of the sketch as I cannot increase details in his face

    Re: Street photography

    Of course some more PP might work fine Jean. But as I said in my first post , the expression of the man makes the image for me and I like the way he reflects the same expressions in his drawing ( especially in the looks of the couple). Actually, this is what matters to me and the rest is just some minor revisions

    Re: Street photography

    To wake up this thread two versions of the same photo. For me the monochrome version is more readable. Your opinion?

    #13 portraitist, missed this one. Nicely captured, the couple looks very happy also; were they still posing while you captured the artist?

    Agree about #14, the glaring light must've been a chore to work with.
