Weekly Photo Challenge: Fleeting Moments

Posted on June 30, 2012 by elentari86

A street photography challenge this week. Here’s a photo I took on holiday in Venice a few years ago. We were walking along and I glanced down a side street, my attention drawn firstly by all the washing hanging up and then by the old woman walking towards the camera, seemingly untouched by the modern world. I snapped a quick shot and we moved on.

This is one of my favourite photographs I’ve ever taken.

About elentari86

Apparently blogs need to cover a certain niche in order to attract readers. My aim is not to attract readers. I don't deny it would be nice not to just be spouting to myself, but the reason I set this blog up was to give myself somewhere to write down my thoughts. If anyone reads them, that's a bonus. This blog will cover a mix of things - anything that comes to mind that I want to write about. I make no promises about how often I will publish new content.

    There’s something in the mess of the clotheslines that makes the picture so stunning. 🙂

    Fabulous image – the clothes almost make a geometric or mosaic-like pattern!
