Ive met Andre twice, the first time, he was merrily singing and playing "Sugar Mountain" - Neil Young.. and i snapped a few shots.. unfortunatly, due to my lack of judgement, i messed them up.. shooting a joyfully moving man at 1/60, f8?.. dont think so.. Anyways.. Was out yesterday (nov 21 06) with
 and was telling her about him, so we headed up granville hoping he was there.. He was singing "Wild World" by Yusaf Islam, who to me, will always be known as Cat stevens  (i cant remember where that line was from, simpsons i think)Leslie recognised the name right away, i didn't.. i was suprised at her musical knowledge, but i already knew she had great taste..  I didnt have enough money to buy a CD, but gave him what i had in my pocket.. $3.50 or so.. When we came back down Granville, he was gone, replaced by a young lady with a sign and a blanket  .. poor girlI hope to run into andre again one day... If you want to hear, and see him, Granville and Georgia.. but if you take his picture, give him some change.. I dont think he would mind either way, but it sure cant hurt  Shot With; Minolta Maxxum4 Kit Lens 28-100 @ 70mm Impressa 160 (expired) ISO, 640 (it was getting dark, and i forgot to lower it from the night before )1/125 - f/3.5 Post work; 5:7 ratio at lab Convert to b/w framed, signed, resized Comments
 Another one of your touching street shots.. What can I say? Im gonna let the image speak for itself
-- "For someone named JEDIYoda, you're hardly one to judge. Use the force to grow a brain, and learn to be more polite to people."  thank you kindly sir.. i have a great golden shot coming tonight or tomorrow.. i dont want it to overshadow andre, so im waiting to post it -- Horribly intrusive watermarks are tacky. If you're concerned about people stealing your photos, don't post them on the internet. Photography is the simultaneous recognition, in a fraction of a second, of the significance of an event. (HCB) Hehe, I used to do that alot... When I have 2 or more GREAT things coming, I always wait at least a day so people can fully appreciate both
-- "For someone named JEDIYoda, you're hardly one to judge. Use the force to grow a brain, and learn to be more polite to people." lol, i dont know if this one is great tho

oh he so was!.. i just love the way he played.. so joyously even tho his situation would make you think otherwise

Maybe their lives are less complex, or they've learned to let go of everything because they have nothing to hang onto.
  your slow shutterspeed got this framed up just nice... His hands strumming the guitar made the picture felt alive - not to mention i'm listening to some acoustic jazz guitar on my iPod that helped with the mood....the sign on his right by the floor also gave a stronger sense to the feel of this picture. except for his water tumbler by his feet that's distracting... coz that stuff in my country here's worth more than RM$20! (US$6)... too much empty space on the right though, which i might wanna shoot on vertical if i were there... -- evangeliss yh-hwong photojournalism gallery moderator deviantart, inc. email: estudio@volunteers.deviantart.com Bonnie & Clyde aka ^Helewidis + ^estudio could be both..
our cars, cell phones, jobs.. they dont make us happy.. -- Horribly intrusive watermarks are tacky. If you're concerned about people stealing your photos, don't post them on the internet. Photography is the simultaneous recognition, in a fraction of a second, of the significance of an event. (HCB) his foot was 'stepping' to the beat too.. and yeah, i agree with the vertical.. but i kinda was going for the empty space, as in another life, many people might have been crowded around the 'rockstar' .. but here, theres maybe a few nice civilians stopping for no more than a minuite to hear his stories..
no crowds.. no fame.. which he deserves.. are you saying that the water bottle is expensive? if you seen the shape it was in, and the look of the water, you would think it was grabbed out of the rubbish bins.. i just love the way he plays guitar, one ear to the side, as if being closer to the music makes him further away from his situation.. bringing him into a world without money.. only music -- Horribly intrusive watermarks are tacky.
