Street Artist.....

.......no I mean "street artist, this guy was using the street as his canvas,.... :-))) this image was shot in England while visiting Sue and Harold..... I have some old b&w 35mm photos that I took in the 70s and I thought I would try to make this one look like them, and although I am not a big fan of added film grain, I had to add some to get what I felt was that look in this b&w conversion.......

Thanks for all the clicks and comments.......

This is an excellent street scene and could be from any era of photography in my life time. Great tones and a scene that has a good story.
Regards,
Archie

no easy job, always laying on the cold floor and painting some pictures until the next rain comes ...

This artist was on a large area of pavement just in front of York Minster... and what he was painting was superb.
That was a great day out Den with much for us all to photograph.
This does work well in b/w, but having seen this myself, I do miss the colours he was using to create his masterpiece.
