Raiding the Archives 10: Street Photography in Canal Park
K. PraslowiczHi! I don't do as much text blogging as I used to, as most of my efforts have shifted towards video content. Please consider subscribing to my YouTube channel.
View The ChannelSo tonight I intentionally dug deep back into my black & white street photography days. The hope was to find a photograph already existed in my early street photography gallery so that I could rescan it and bump up the resolution, or find a forgotten gem to add to the gallery.
The sheet that I actually ended up grabbing at random didn't contain any images already in the gallery. However, it was from one of the freakishly successful days that I ever had in Canal Park back in May 2008 that contained a lot of images that I had uploaded to Flickr back in the day. So, baby, like the McRib, they're back! This time in glorious high(er) definition than the original 500 pixel wide images I uploaded nearly a decade ago to Flickr.
The face of the man holding the boy's hand is still one of the most intense stares I think I've ever received.
I had forgotten about this group who spent years in Canal Park and the surrounding area yelling at people about how they were going to hell. Eventually, a journalist dug deep and discovered that the leader of the group was a registered sex offender. Haven't seen them around since that revelation came to light.
Lovely story with the religious screamers in Canal Park. A bit of Donnie Darko with their darks secrets!
I sure hope for more photo content either on the blog or the youtube channel. You are so witty and entertaining and you make dull trash on the side of a hiking trail worth watching over here in Sweden.
There is too much of dudes out on youtube with gear testing videos and a picture of a brick wall that they feel obliged to put in.
Your winter tree photography hike is a video I keep returning to.
Cheers!
