Street Photo – Untitled

About a month ago, I was "fishing" around the City Hall area, just at the junction between North Bridge Road and Coleman Street. It was a crowded Sunday afternoon with many Vietnamese and Myanmar people.

Initially, I wanted to take photographs of this young girl standing by the barricades, but she looked away when I pressed the shutter. However, this young guy walked into the frame and stroked his hair. That look in his eyes is filled with self-confidence. Next to him, a masked lady with her sunglasses on her head, frowning. It'd be a better and more interesting street photograph by cropping the photo as shown below, focussing on these 2 characters.

Our National Day is just around the corner and there will be more people hanging out in that area on the coming weekends. I'm planning on doing more up-close street photos of people. Will share the photos when ready.

Street Photos – Primary Colors
















Do you know what are the primary colors? Yes, they are RED, BLUE, and YELLOW.

I understand that you, the viewers see lots of yellow color in these 3 street photos as the dominating color, but take a closer look (if you look closely and long enough), there are the reds and blues, and even a secondary color i.e. GREEN. Oh! There are neutral colors too (black, white and grey). Did you spot them all in each photo?

Street Photo – underbar

underbar
©2023 Martin Liew Photography

I was inspired and strongly motivated to do street photography last weekend. I was on alert mode, constantly looking for interesting characters, gestures, body language, facial expressions, human interactions, found objects, etc. And there it was. I was walking along the sidewalk of Bugis+ shopping mall and spotted this man sitting under the mall signboard, if that's what they called it, with that strong peachy pink color tone on his polo T-shirt on par with the same color tone on the letter 'b'.

I titled it 'underbar' because I Google-searched and found there's another name for underscore. That short horizontal pink stripe across the polo T-shirt, positioned right beside the letter 'b', says it all.
