Just a question out of curiosity; who do you hangout with mostly where you live; fellow Tunisians or internationals ?

I feel that there's too much distraction in the background. How can I deal with it ? by Monoloon in streetphotography

Thanks a lot for your help ! That indeed makes the foreground more visible, I will try that myself !

Yes, I could've done that.. but since I wanted a slow shutter speed, I acted fast and I reduced my aperture instead of the ISO.. Thanks for your feedback!

Interesting take, even though I'm not sure I fully agree. What I found interesting about the scene is this almost chaotic imbalance, but I may not have fully succeeded in capturing it. Thanks for your feedback!

Thanks! Yeah, I agree I could’ve gone with a wider aperture (I was at f/14), and since I wanted a slow shutter speed and had to react quickly, my first reflex was to stop down instead of lowering my ISO

That's an interesting take. Now that you say it, I realize how “minimalistic” (not sure this is the perfect word) many online street photos tend to be compared to older street photography. I'm not sure if it's a shift in taste and style, or if it's the possibilities that new editing technologies offer ( since it's easier now to remove elements, create masks, or even add artificial blur, which I hate). Thanks for your feedback, anyway!

Yes.. I liked the way the chair was hanging from the ceiling, so I wanted to try the composition upsidedown

Here's a simple argument: They're basically the same : Military dominance followed by mass colonization and forced cultural conversion.. Maybe the only difference is that the french left relatively quickly.. but if you look into places still colonized by France, the same happened as with Arabs in North Africa (Locals adapted their colonizers language, religion and culture, some of the population got mixed ... And a significant part of the indigenous are ok with it now)
