This was not my first try at street photography( third), but it was the first time I had the courage to realy take pictures of people without asking...


This is in one of the poor regions of Belgium...as you can see...


Hope someone likes one.

Good Job!

That's a very good start to your street photography, I especially like # 3, but they're all well done. You've got the idea!

Thank you for your reply Stefan.
For a moment I thought the man with the pipe would start complaining about me taking his picture, but he just walked by.


Thank you for taking the time,


Igor

Your just have to try and look harder, "grumpy old men" don't have the same appeal.
