In the last two posts, I spoke about anger, and sadness.
But, when you interact with people on the street, and relate to them, they sometimes reward you with a beatific smile that leaves a warmth in your heart.
I believe that this is the essence of street photography. To relate to people, and to be able to record their dignity, and to leave behind a record that they would be happy to relate to.
What say, my friends?
Not too many words from me this time. I think that his smile, and the twinkle in his eyes say it all.
This is one HAPPY photo! me likes 🙂
Very nice!
I agree entirely. I think the interaction is so important (I know we’ve discussed this before) and a smile like that is a reward!
Yes, it is!
His smile and twinkle definitely says it all. Your photo has put a spring in my step!
Thanks! I am glad it had that effect!

So I see that You do not just ‘click’ photographs. This sort of smile can be ‘called upon’ for a photo op! You Must have Related with him, and Very positively, for him to have been able to bring that Smile to his face.
That is Greatness. Thanks and Kudos for bringing these Smiles to these faces, and to Us!
Hearty Regards, my Dear Rajiv! 🙂
Thank you, Swami Ji.. It is never easy to get these shots. You need to connect, and this does not always happen. When it happens, it is fantastic
But it Only comes by Trying! And I would say You receive Full marks on that! 🙂
