I can't really call this a street grab. I was drawn to the shadow of the tree on the typical Bath paving stones and liked the curving composition.

Overlook at the Pulteney Weir
Another photograph that for some reason conveys a sense of foreboding. It was a 'street grab' and the halo formed by clouds around the elderly man's head is just an accident.
Father, son and a busker's dog
Another street grab. I like the way the father and son are similarly posed and the dog's seeming fascination with the young boy. This was taken on the Abbey Courtyard in Bath.
Queen Square, Bath, England
One of my favourite films is Alfred Hitchcock's, The Birds. This street photograph with the barren trees and the solitary blackbird seems to be quite foreboding in its composition. Street photography is quite 'hit and miss'. I usually hold the camera at waist level with a wide angle lens. I simply snap the shutter when I detect something of interest. The two women on the bench in Queen Square add to the sinister implications of this photograph.
