First street walk in a long time. I actually underestimated the packed city, so I ran through a slightly smaller Christmas market, trying to escape the stressful shopping crowd.
MERRY XMAS :)
It is always worth taking a picture from underneath the big staircases at ‚Wandelhalle‘ (central station). The silhouettes of people walking down in combination with the dirty plexiglas(?) can result in a nice grungy high contrast look.
Lurking around at central station, hoping for some decent street shots, I was lucky catching a very brief moment, where nobody was running through my composition!
Walking around the Alster, I spotted this young man in a suit, taking a little nap in the sun. Genuine lunch break :)
Yesterday, I ran into this cashier at the fairy boat stop. He seemed to be eagerly waiting for some customers…
Walking down the streets, I already noticed that fella outside a cafe from far distance. He was intensely looking through some paperwork, which would have made a perfect shot imo. With no time to waste I sneaked up on him. Just by the time I raised the camera to my eye, he put his head up. Damnit – caught in the act again! Well, something you have to consider shooting street :)
Yet again I went to the harbour looking out for some nice candid street shots. At the sightseeing bus stop I saw this slighty confused gentleman on the phone. While stepping closer, I realized he was talking to the sightseeing company, beeing irritated by the departure times.
Hope they didn’t let you down and you had enjoyed your ride, buddy! ;)
