Street photography, a photo from Baki, Absheron

Photographer's Note

At the moment of shooting there was no photographer around, probably having a break :). Near the boulvare people are often stopped and asked if they want to have a photo.

Great title for this shot, Emilia, AND an interesting subject (can't be much crime around there if the photographer disappears leaving his/her camera on the table like that) AND technically the photograph is good (exposure, sharpness, etc,) BUT . . . I feel your POV could have been better rather than just placing this in the middle of the frame. I think your composition could have been greatly improved if you had some out-of-focus background (distant street scene or whatever) to put this into context. A well spotted photo op though. Cheers . . . David

Hi Emilia, this is a sad and a funny shot all at the same time, I feel. This guy is probably a really good photographer and proud of his trade but his shop / studio leaves a little to be desired. Excellent composition and exposure. Really good shot. Regards, Paul.

Im quite astonished. An expensive Camera and noone to guard it.
It reminds me of my days in Damscus. I wantet to buy some postcards in a streetshop, waiting in the shop for someone to come and sell the cards. But the shop stayed empty.. :-) So I went without buying anything. Bad deal for the owner.
