Street Portraits - Fremantle

Fremantle, ©Piotrek Ziolkowski, 2012

 A few oldies from the bottom of the drawer/Lightroom ;) All of them were shot with my trusty   Nikon F100  - my last film camera. Street portraits are portraits of strangers, which means I know nothing of people I photographed... We as people actually like looking at others but social conventions make it nearly impossible. Only children and "mad ones" are completely unrestricted in this regard. 

The two elderly gentleman are WWII veterans I captured during a some sort of celebration in Fremantle.  One of them was quite pleased with my request, the other one, I think, must have hated it... When I asked it was his daughter that replied and was thrilled to say yes. Loyd tried to bully me into paying him 10 dollars for a photo, people quite often take me for a tourist... I agreed to a few bucks. The tipsy man just wanted a photo :)

 The last men here is a local grocer - he had an awesome looking hat and quite a mustache. The tipsy man just wanted a photo :) A mixed bag of film and digital is on my home page - you think you know the look of film? Find them then.
