Friday night Specials v6.2
If you like what you see, this article
so it can reach as many deviants as possible.
A weekly selection amongst the images I liked,
while browsing the Street Gallery
and I think they deserve more attention.
Enjoy them, comment on them and remember
to visit the photographers' galleries as well.

Have a nice weekend!
A big thanks to all the people who honored my DD feature with a comment or a fav!

And especially to the awesome neighbors and friends from Italy

The Street Photography Addiction Test (SPAST)
Has it ever occured to you, that you're already addicted or rapidly tumbling towards trouble? The Street Photography Addiction Test is the first validated and reliable measure of addiction to Street Photography. Developed by Dr. Mary E. Cimetta and her esteemed collaborator Dr. Stamatis Grigoropoulos, the SPAST is a 10-item questionnaire that measures mild, moderate, and severe levels of Street Photography Addiction.
To assess your level of addiction, answer the following questions and then add your points
1. Can you get through the week without street shooting?
4 = Never

Urbex #12" Water is life's mater, matrix, mother and medium. There is no life without water."
If you had a childhood like mine, you'll have enjoyed spending much of it in Water parks, whether these were in built up urban areas or on the coast. So you'll remember that sound of screaming (with happiness!), laughing, the smell of hot dogs, and the feeling of warm concrete on bare feet. It certainly stirs up some memories - and it's easy to picture all of that when looking at the below. How sad it is though, that these places no longer have the echo of children's laughter, and are no longer captured in family photographs. Instead they're explored by your average Urbex'r in a desperate bid to preserve history!

Zone FocusingWhat is zone focusing? A technique. Like auto-iso or bracketing, it's a way to increase the odds and assure that you get "that photo". In this case it's not about the adequate speed or the right exposure, but about it's focus.
We all know that street photography is not about planning or action, but all about reaction. The pursuit of that perfect moment that you can't imagine in advance.
After your alertness see that light, that mood, that person, that face, thatcharacter, that situation, that juxtaposition, that balance, that repetition, that situation, that something that triggers you, all you can do is… react.
Well, without going into DoF, it's relation with the sensor's size, on how it only works usefully up to 35 or 50mm, and wider themes like creativity, let's just stick to aperture/distance and the fact that in the end of a photo walk you have a coherent set of photos and an acceptable focus rate of cand

We are looking for adminsDear members,
The #r72 infrared photography group is currently looking for people who are interested in becoming part of the administrator team. We are doing this because some of the “old” admins have become too occupied with other tasks, and also to enrich the group with new ideas. As an admin of #r72 your main responsibilities would be the following:
- Participate in the voting process by which we select the photographs which make it into our gallery. This involves writing an explanatory message to members whose submission was declined.
- Compile the monthly “Best of” feature (we take turns, so you don’t have to do it every month).
- Discuss current topics with the other admins.
- Keep your eyes open for good IR pictures and potential new members of the group.
You don’t have to be a professional photographer who has been shooting infrared pictures since before it was considered cool. However, some experience is clearly called for, since you

Hi Members & VisitorsHi

:icondevwatchwelcomeplz:
I hope you all doing great and having a good day !
I wanted to talk about this group and make things clear to you all

At first when I decided to do this group for two reasons,
First , I wanted to had this experience of having my own Group

Second , I wanted this group to be the place where beginners and every photographer can develop their skills. I remember when I just started photographing, I was using only my cellphone camera and I remember how I was in need to someone that can I ask or a place that can develop my skills.
So, here's this group, you can ask anything about photography, you can find your inspiration and you can share your work!
Thanks a lot for reading !

Yours
Sarah
