NYC streets.

Shot with the Contax G2 & the 28mm lens on Adox HR-50 & Rollei Superpan 200. I like contrast.

You can have a look at all the images here. I selected ~40 frames from a total of 9 rolls shot through 9 days.

Not really sure it's street photo, as it's my daughter playing in Lyon/France. Taken with my trusty Rolleiflex 2.8D on Kodak Tri-X.

Yes it is! It was taken in an urban setting and it's a candid moment. It doesn't have to be stranger to be street photography. Awesome frame, I find quality, artistic candids of family to be pretty uncommon.

Thank you for your kind comment, it's much appreciated. I don't have much free time, so my family is my main subject. I try to make shots that I like with them. Thanks a lot, again.

Nice photo. No one knows the truth of the photo, it can be your family, an unknown child playing on the street, or a refugee child begging for money, who cares. By giving more information to the context of the photography you only weaken it.
This photo is very good because it has a nice formalistic environment and an abstract subject and it says nothing at all. No titles, nothing about the poor child falling, no slogan or message. It "speaks" only with photographic terms to whom they can appreciate the photographic language which in this photo is used solidly.
