Street Scenes in B&W

As if street photography was not challenging enough, the degree of difficulty increases significantly when the photographer attempts to capture an evolving scene that includes interplay between multiple people and/or things at a location that provides an interesting backdrop. The scene's moment of peak interest, subjects' spacing, and overall composition can appear suddenly or slowly as the drama unfolds.​ The success rate when making images of these scenes is generally very low, but the reward can be an image with considerable interest to the viewer.

This series focuses on such street scenes from the Washington, D.C. and NYC metro areas.
