A single image


When I went to town to buy food, I saw a lot of interesting things that could be photographed, but since we didn't have much time and the day wouldn't be long, I just looked at a lot of things. But when I got to the bigger store where I go to buy food, there was something left right in front of the big shop.
There was a pair of leather boots left there, they looked decent, even slightly scuffed, they were nicely on the metal rack and just waiting for someone to pick them up. I just stood and watched how no one picked up those decent boots that were just standing outside in the -6 cold, every person walked by calmly and just looked from afar with their eyes and didn't even try to smile very much, that there is also something free in the store :))) ..
So I took out my old Sony NEX-5T camera and tried to get one sharp picture before I run to the store and then accidentally forget that I saw them there, as many people forget even small things what they see in day with their busy workday.

I am satisfied with this one picture because this one black and white street photography picture is very pleasing to my own eyes, I don't know what others here think, but I hope that this picture will make others want to look at the simple things left behind on the street, which at first seem pointless, I always say to myself that the best pictures come from walking and from the most unexpected places, so I have to try to photograph everything even if it seems pointless, like those boots in front of the store that many people didn't even notice were there. But a few people looked at me strangely when I was taking picture, which is a completely normal attitude because they had no idea what photography is. 🤗🤗👍😜

I be soon back what new photos, sorry what my weak English, I try hunt photos and that what I do lot times.


I was use here my Sony NEX-5T
I was use here my Sony 16-50 mm kit lens.
And I was use on my laptop a free app Adobe Photoshop to get this good Black and white look on this photo.

That is not bad idea, Even if I don't use them, they look decent enough to just keep on a shelf as a display that what can be found on street if you have the courage to pick up the used stuff.

Thank you!! 🤗.... I am sure this shoes are not bad to have in winter time , this leather material was thick enough what I was see what my eyes, and the boots didn't have strong cracks where the cold could get in or the rain could damage them.

Thank you!! .... and I like when people ask me to take pictures of them, here people make a bit of an evil face because the mainstream media makes it so that there are no ordinary photographers on the street, that make as look like we are all evil creatures there on street :)))

Yeah, some people are welcome to random photographers taking their pictures, while some others have misconception about street photographers 😄

Maybe the owner hot a new boots that he decided to leave in there for someone who needs it. But whatever the reason, I hope that boots found its owner. It still look okay to me. Or maybe not?

Anyways, I find the photo cool, really love the black and white photo. It can always give a mew touch to one image. If it's me though, I'm not sure if I will ever have the guts to take a photo of that. Maybe I'll do it smoothly like when no one is looking, I'm really shy that's why. But if I have a cool camera like yours, then maybe I will be a bit confident on taking it 😆

Thank you!! YOu can be right.. if I go just now back City , then I feel they are not there more, because their appearance was decent enough that someone will soon be interested in picking them up.

shyness and fear is the biggest thing that prevents many people from taking pictures, if you don't dare to take pictures, take your friends and walk with them on the street, you can use them as a protective shield and gather courage to take pictures. But first thing, don't let fear stop you, it takes all the good pictures, just turn off the head and take pictures :)) this what I do on street all time if I have time to go on there, then I think less so I can make more photos :)))

UH and I have small camera .... it is Sony NEX-5T old model .. I think used one can be some 100 euros now on market.

Hello @foxkoit
Can you please do us a favor and remove the monomad tag from this post?
It's supposed to be used only with black and white photography published in the black and white community. Basically as the entry ticket for our daily challenge. 🙂

MAN is very simple 🫵, no one owns this # name here, if you do flag me, I ask you to remove this # monomad also in your all your challenge posts as well and post your competition on your community page 🫵, but it is unacceptable that you take this entire # name in your possession and try to associate it only with your own project, this is not acceptable, and by flagging this post I have the right to do the same.

No I fill not take it off

I did not post in your pages , and I have maid nothing wrong... you not like it then don't look and go on your room . And this # are free to use all users, just one # ... if you don't introduce yourself.

MAN is very simple 🫵, no one owns this # name here

This tag was created and brought to Hive by me, way before the hardfork, in 2017.
It's the name of the photographic contest I've also created and have been running daily since then. There's no other reason to use it except to enter our contest. The rules to it have changed a bit since that initial post I linked above, and they are on every daily selection I publish in this account.

if you do flag me

I didn't threat you with any flags, and was actually quite polite. Something you should learn how to be too.
All I tried to do was explain you, in a very simple way, why the tag should be removed. Apparently it wasn't simple enough. My bad.

I ask you to remove this # monomad also in your all your challenge posts as well

Monomad is the name of the contest and why the tag was created and brought to Hive by me to start with, as explained above.

and post your competition on your community page 🫵

The competition is posted on the community page, as well as all the entries from anyone willing to participate. It's on the rules, which you should have read before answering.

but it is unacceptable that you take this entire # name in your possession and try to associate it only with your own project, this is not acceptable

Again.. I was the one creating the tag for my contest back in 2017. And that's the only reason for it to be used.
What could be considered unacceptable by many is having someone trying to tell them what to do with their projects.

and by flagging this post I have the right to do the same.

None of your posts were flagged yet.

I did not post in your pages

Exactly.
And that was the reason why I dropped you the comment.

and I have maid nothing wrong

You did.
You misused a tag that is meant to be used strictly as the entry ticket to a contest, by posting a specific type of photography in its respective community, as stated in the rules that you didn't even bother to read. You simply decided to use it just because you think you know better than the people who actually created and run it.

you not like it then don't look and go on your room .

You gave me a good laugh with this one, must admit it.

And this # are free to use all users

This tag is free to use by anyone willing to follow the rules to participate on the contest for which it was created for.

Next time take a deep breath and do your own research, before portraying yourself as an offended diva.
Have a great week.
