Lens-Artists Challenge, #371: Street Details

Lens-Artists Challenge, #371: Street Details

This week it's Ritva's turn to host the Challenge, and her theme is 'Street Details' (https://sillarit.com/2025/10/25/lens-artists-street-details/). On her blog,

Ritva Sillanmäki Photography, Ritva didn't waste any time getting to the ppont: 'This is a simple challenge ... , skip the classic street-portrait approach and zoom in ... . The goal is to reveal the often-hidden, magical world, of the details we never take the time to notice'.

For this Challenge, I took the Fujifilm Finepix Real 3D W3 digital stereo camera down the side streets of Oiã. I was looking for those items that might normally be overlooked: a worker's stepladder in the street, an abandoned house, benches and bins in the new park, and a few other places. The abandoned sofa, on the road leading to Estação de Oiã, the railway station, has been there for a while, and I recorded that the first time I was out with the Real 3D W3. The park has only been open for a few months, and the 'yellow brick road' provides a pleasant short cut between the main road and the Town Hall.

Themes for the Lens-Artists Challenge are posted each Saturday at 12:00 noon EST (which is 4pm, GMT) and anyone who wants to take part can post their images during the week.
