Zooming down Market Street



For this photograph I used a zoom lens to focus towards the lower end of the road and cropped off the bottom of the picture. The result is a foreshortening of the perspective which gives a heightened sense of how busy Market Street can be on a Saturday afternoon.

  2. I really like street scenes like this! You can look at it for a while, and keep seeing something that you didn't notce at first.
