Eric, Thanks so much for chosing my photo…It is such an honour to be selected amongst so many amazing artists!
Getting rid of personal bias towards my photo the condom photo made me laugh the most but the first image is definitely my favourite. Such a special moment to be captured.
Congrats to all the photographers that were chosen

Can we make next week’s assignment “anything but people”? I’m really tired of photographs of people. It’s been “done to death”.

  Street Photography can certainly not have people it in, but to say people shots in SP has been “done to death” is like saying serving beer at bars has been done to death.

    drinking beer is not making art. Photography “is” an art. And yes, photographs of people has been done to death.

I smiled at most of them, but laughing out loud for me was with Kelvin Kwok and Aaron Offord. Jo Dooher too.
