\u201cYour eye must see a composition or an expression that life itself offers you, and you must know with intuition when to click the camera.\u201d<\/em>\u2013 Henri Cartier-Bresson<\/p>\n

A quote from one of my Photography hero\u2019s and a man who\u2019s images inspire and excite me.<\/p>\n

I can\u00a0view Bresson\u2019s images over and over\u00a0and find a new magic and beauty in them every time I look.<\/p>\n

It was with the great man in mind that for this weeks image I decided I would explore the world of street photography.<\/p>\n

As far as photography is concerned this has always been one of my favourite genres and over the years some of my best images have been created out on the street.<\/p>\n

So when my wife said to me she needed to go into town to do some shopping today, I grabbed my camera and a small 50mm lens and decided to make use of the time I would inevitably spend standing outside of\u00a0various large\u00a0department stores waiting as she satisfied a Woman\u2019s natural urge to shop.<\/p>\n

I must admit I did not spend as much time standing around as I had anticipated but never the less I still managed to get a few images that I was happy with when I got back to my computer.<\/p>\n

After some deliberation I managed to narrow the images down to four and eventually settled on this one of a\u00a0group of buskers\u00a0playing their merry tune on New Street in Birmingham.<\/p>\n

The Image today was not taken on my a7ii as i wanted to travel as light as possible so decided to take the Sony a5000 with me and I must say even though the image is not up to the standard of the a7ii it is still of a high enough quality to satisfy all but the most demanding of needs.<\/p>\n

Enjoy.<\/p>\n

Darren<\/p>\n
