Street Focus 85: Q&A and Street Challenge
This week my guest co-host is my friend and former student Ken Lyons. We answer questions regarding photo workshops both from a student's and instructor's perspectives. The questions were sent to us by Shawn Brezny, Kimberley Britt Saros, Steve Brokaw and Alec Hosterman.
Connect with Ken Lyons via his website.
And the winners are…
The last street challenge was Humor on the Streets.

“Rushing to the trains”
Right after I took that shot, one of the station emploeeys came over. I thought that he will tell me that I’m not allowed to take pictures here (as has happened to a fellow photographer that day in this train station), but instead he asked if he should make some more shadows for me and if my camera is a Leica. I had my X-Pro 1 and the 35mm f/1.4 with me and we started talking about photography for like 20 minutes, as he is also a photographer.

Hey, that’s in Vienna in the Volksgarten. So there is at least one other Streetphotographer in Vienna who listens to Valerie! 😉
