Getting Ready to Cross The Road Over by Hirotoshi Takano
As my regular routine, on this shooting day, I went to Shibuya Center Street in Shibuya, Tokyo. At the near end of crosswalk just before getting to the street, I noticed the guy tieing his shoe lace in a hurry. Thought he's a very attractive motif, though, I wondered if I should shoot from his front side or not. Then I chose to shoot him from his back side, as there would be an empty space of people in front of him in the moment of traffic light was turning to red.

Self-portrait by Maria Magdalena Vladu-Popa
It was a regular Saturday afternoon and the light in my bedroom was perfect for a photoshoot. So I decided to explore this type of photography, the self-portrait. I set my tripod and started to shoot, using my phone as a remote control. The vignette effect was done using a ring.

Rooftop by Keith Goldstein
My wife and I were visiting a friend's ceramic studio in Brooklyn. I am always drawn to windows especially when they are well above our apartment floor home. I looked out of one of the banks of windows and was drawn to the pattern of the quantity of vents and skylights of the rooftop of the adjacent building.
