Photographer of the Day: Plane Sight Images
Category: Street Photographer: Plane Sight Images Upon first glance, this tends to be your typical scene in front of a coffee shop or retail space, with a woman sitting in a chair, petting her dog. But upon closer glance, you see a boy in the window, staring at the woman intensely. It makes for quite the comical composition and helps to elevate the photograph to be something truly unique.

Photographer of the Day: Kurt Kramer
Category: Street Photographer: Kurt Kramer "Orange/Yellow (57042)" I'm plenty used to seeing the scenes beneath the Chicago train tracks, but Kurt seems to do a spectacular job at capturing and framing his subject.

The composition here is perfect, and the woman's orange outfit just adds to the stellar scene. Originally shared with the Photofocus Flickr group right here.

Photographer of the Day: Bernd Weller
Category: Street Photographer: Bernd Weller "Tuned Out" The color that Bernd is able to capture here is astonishing — the mural on the brick just really stands out. But the reason I picked this photograph is more about the composition. The subject takes up a small portion of the photograph, letting the wall shine in its artistic beauty. The man, standing outside checking his phone, seems somewhat oblivious to what's around him. It's an interesting take on an everyday scene, which often brings out the best in street … [Read more...] about Photographer of the Day: Bernd Weller
Photographer of the Day: Jens

The scene also brings in a lot of colorful elements, which help to direct to the man's struggle.

Photographer of the Day: Robertino Radovix
Category: Street Photographer: Robertino Radovix "Rimini, plazza Cavour" Reflections are a street photographer's best friend. They can turn something like a wet, overcast day into something magical. Robertino does exactly this, capturing a couple in the top half of the scene that is then reflected in the puddle below. It shows street life in a non-typical way, and that helps to give a bit of interest into an otherwise standard scene. Originally shared with the Photofocus Flickr community right here.

Category: Street Photographer: 陳 揮之 "In Nha Trang" The photographer does an amazing job here, capturing the everyday life of Nah Trang, Vietnam.
