Street Vibe with Lou Smith

Street Photography Courses in London with Lou Smith

Street Photography as Stalls Sizzle and Buzz with Christmas Vibe

 

As London gears up for Christmas Street Photography is at its best.  Stalls sizzle, pop and burn as smoke fills the air.  Revellers come in close to the stalls to warm and fill themselves with Christmas cheer.  It’s getting cold in London and the icy North wind just blows in.  The cold blow never stops Christmas – it just makes it even more awsesome to take in the London Street Vibe.  Here a touch of tinsel is the icing on the cake!

Lou Smith is a Fine Art Photographer with over 25 years experience in the visual arts and teaches street photography in London. Check out our photography courses page.

The Beauty of Creative Seeing

 

London in the Spring

The Rite of Spring 2012

At last wonderful Spring colours are here! Soft shades of green illuminate the London landscape. Rain brings growth and reflections. Stunning in its simplicity of expression. Here is my Rite of Spring as London moves towards Summer.

What a Day for a Day Dream

London Street Photography Westminster

Day Dreaming Guy

 

The day was moving fast around this guy. The Thames Festival was hotting up – people rushing to take part in the Festival’s activities. But this guy sat just chilling. Taking in the view. Enjoying the River Thames and Westminster, reading a book and from time to time just stopping to take in the view. I love this guy – just enjoying a Day Dream!

The Thames Festival is always very exciting on London’s South Bank.  Returning every year in September the Festival celebrates the cultural diversity of London.  This is one huge party which runs all weekend.  Traders display their vibrant stalls.  This stall holder sold organic fruit.  Red crispy apples, who could resist to take a bite?

mmm…Don’t Look Now!

Street Photography on the South Bank, London

Warm sunny London days, just perfect for strolling on the South Bank.  The Bubble Blower blew large floating bubbles high in the air.  This created a frenzy of bubble chasing by excited children.

Those were the Days!
