From the day
Perspective: The Street Photographer · Sight
The damp cobblestones catch the amber glow of the gas lamps, reflecting the heavy wool skirts and stiff celluloid collars of the Sunday crowd. Blimey, the grit on these newsboys' faces is a perfect contrast to the sharp black ink of the headlines screaming about Governor Higgins and the Patrick commute. I pause by a street vendor’s cart, my fingers numb as I fumble with my camera’s shutter while the scent of warm dough rises through the fog. It’s a steep $0.05 for a single loaf of bread these days, but the way the light hits that golden crust makes for a bully shot.
