Cinematic Photography Experiment

Being very new to the world of photography I am always reading, researching and studying photos of artists (Yes, photographers are artists) work I admire. My genre of choice is Street Photography for many reasons but mainly for the spontaneity of the shot. No two shots are ever the same out there on the street.

That being said, I have come to really like the “Cinematic Photography” style. This particular style seems to capture the mood so much better than a normal Cropped/Processed shot. The wide cinematic feel with letterbox header/footer is as if you stopped a movie in mid stream. Two great examples are the photographs of Jeff Krol and James Yeung.

Here are a few of my first attempts:

Weekly Photo Challenge: Culture

New Orleans..There is a thread of music that floats along every street corner.. It is unavoidable and so ingrained in the culture here, it becomes a part of every person that walks those streets.

I encountered these fine musicians on my visit this week:

Royce from the New Creations Brass Band played for me as I walked through Treme

Guitar Man on Royal Street wore a 3 piece suit and never broke a sweat..class

Jackson Square trio that gave me one of my best concerts ..ever

Robert played me a happy beat on the banks of the Mississippi River

Music is New Orleans and New Orleans is music
