Street photography means capturing life as it happens. “All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women, merely players“, is a famous quote from William Shakespeare. As street photographer roaming the streets, I’m always on the lookout for those little scenes that tell a story and leave enough room for every viewer’s own interpretation of the captured moment. Walking through a little town on the island of Sardinia in Italy, I passed an open door of an otherwise empty bar, were the musician was playing away towards that open window. Indifferent of what was happening behind him. A truly precious moment.

Leica Q2 Monochrom


A simple shift of perspective — looking straight down into the hull — turns weathered planks and coiled rope into an abstract composition. The parallel lines of the timber draw the eye inward, while the rope provides a counterpoint of curve and texture. Monochrome is the natural choice: there is no colour to distract from the pattern, and the tonal contrast between sun-bleached wood and shadow does all the work.
From the article Montjean-sur-Loire — The Wrong Road, the Right Place on IJM Photography. Canon EOS 6D Mark II | 16–35mm.
Image was taken with a Fujifilm X-E5 and XF 23mm f/2.0 WR lens.
