The Collector

It was late at night in the island of Key West. I was walking along Duval Street when I passed by a lady who had something unique to herself. She had bike but not just any bike, a bike with at least fifty key chains of varied objects. As I walked by her on the sidewalk, I quickly raised my camera, focused and got the shot. She was actually cleaning her bike at the time which helped minimize blur and movement, but it also gave little gleams of light on the shiny metal objects on her bike. While I am not who her does a whole lot of street photography, I definitely like to experiment with it. In my post-processing, I applied black & white rendering and worked quite awhile with the tones, highlights and shadows to give the right mood and ambiance to the image.
