I can't say they do anything for me, way too random, just people walking in the street. They are just walking, there is no thought into it, photos of people on mobile phones? Don't get it.

What's the photo of the dog and the one above with the woman picking her nose about?

I was just documenting Oxford, it's atmosphere, and it's way of life as I walked around it. That's the only point tbh.
The lady that was scratching her nose was a crazy person (as in completely bonkers), she happened to be waiting for the same bus as me.

And the photos of bicycles, they would work a lot better if you stand back, get the context in, frame the colour of the wall that the bike is leaning on, make that be the canvas.

I you haven't noticed, there is often a wide shot and a detail shot of the bicycles. The wide shot is to add context.

The only photo that I linger on is the kid photographing the phone box, the composition and balance between the 2 and the big gate works.
Cool
Sorry I sound blunt...better cruel to be kind and all that. :)

No worries mate. :)
 
Frot to say, the set has a nice consistency in style and processing, something I'm struggling to achieve after many years!

As others have said though great colours, some good use of DOF and impressive consistency.

Processing used to be a right PITA for me. Then I found a style I liked, so now my workflow just involves correcting exposure and WB if necessary, then I run a batch action.

some nice shots, I also walk around Oxford taking street photography.maybe we should meet up!

Sure, my next trip into Oxford will probably be near Christmas if it snows, as I'd like to document a different season.
