I think it's really interesting that though I generally am not moved by street photography, I am consistently moved by yours. I think that's because the general quality of yours is higher than I'm used to seeing, but it might be because my emotional response to street photography is changing. One thing I am certain of is that continuing to see yours will most assuredly help open my mind to other street photos.

Interesting. One thing I used to find with a lot of street photography was that it was often done in B&W -- I suppose, in part, intending to make it a little more artsy. I found much of it kind of dreary and depressing to look at. Our worlds are so filled with colour that I think that's an important part of the street scene. Graffiti, pink spiky hairdos, flags, tattoos, signboard landscapes, human skin. There's definitely something very sensory-rich going on in Michal's steet photos, and that just adds another dimension to the experience of viewing them as both art and as a slice of life.
