33 Street Photography Photos from One Week in Lisbon, Portugal

After London and a quick flight, came city #37 Lisbon, Portugal on my 100 Cities Project. Mainland Europe’s western most capital packs a lot of charm and atmosphere into a compact city great for walking with your camera. All those hills do provide a work out, but they also provide streets full of character and amazing views around every bend. The cobblestone streets, tile covered homes, old world beauty, sea, sun and more make Lisbon great, but the easy going warm vibes make it even better.

So here’s 33 photos that I was able to capture during my time in Lisbon…

33 Street Photography Photos from Two Weeks in London, England

After Paris and a quick flight, came City #36 London, England on my 100 Cities Project. Following Paris with London provided the two most visited cities in the world back to back. And maybe the most photographed too, especially for street photography. Fortunately, London is so packed with a variety of neighborhoods full of their own character and a blend of antiquity and urban vibrance, there are still endless places to shoot. From the West End to the East End, London provides one of my favorite cities to visit for photography.

So here’s 33 photos that I was able to capture during my time in London…

33 Street Photography Photos from One Week in Paris, France

After Amsterdam and a short train ride, came city #35 Paris, France on my 100 Cities Project. Commonly recognized as the birthplace of street photography, there’s no city as romanticized and photographed as Paris. The truth is there are plenty of sides to the city that you don’t see in most of the photos, though. With so much character, Paris still manages to give you plenty of material to capture.

So here’s 33 photos that I was able to capture during my time in Paris…

33 Street Photography Photos from One Week in Amsterdam, Netherlands

After stopping in Stockholm and Copenhagen, I made my way out of Scandinavia and down to Amsterdam. The city is known for its free and sinful side, but I also enjoyed it’s more peaceful side walking the many canals with my camera. For street photography it’s a unique experience and wide mixture of character. From canal parties to picnics, bicycles and flowers to coffee shops and red light windows, there’s no place like Amsterdam.

33 Street Photography Photos from Ten Days in Stockholm and Copenhagen

Due to budget and time constraints, I couldn’t spend as long as I wanted up in Scandinavia, but I was able to fit 5 days each in Stockholm and Copenhagen. While they share some similarities, they’re very different cities with their own vibes and atmosphere. Stockholm has more beauty and nature, all with a very organized urban feeling around the city, while Copenhagen has a little more edge and vibrance, along with more tourism. The highlight for me, though, was meeting local Stockholm photographers Jimmy Dovholt and Ola Billamont, along with Matt Obrey, who was also visiting. But both cities gave a relaxing atmosphere and great walkability for exploring the city with my camera.

For this edition of 33 street photos, I decided to combine these two cities in one post. So here’s 33 photos that I was able to capture during my time in Stockholm and Copenhagen…

33 Street Photography Photos from One Week in Moscow, Russia

After one of my best experiences of the year shooting in Saint-Petersburg, it was a difficult follow for my next stop in Russia’s capital. Still, Moscow doesn’t disappoint. While not as photogenic of a city as Saint-Petersburg (not many are), Moscow brings a bigger mix of urban, cosmopolitan city with a blend of European influence and Russian character that brings its own atmosphere. At over 12 million people, Moscow is the second largest city in Europe by population, and it can feel even bigger.

So here’s 33 photos that I was able to capture during my time in Moscow…

33 Street Photography Photos from One Week in Saint-Petersburg, Russia

I don’t hide my love for Saint-Petersburg, Russia. If you asked me to pick 3 cities anywhere in the world that I’d like to return for street photography, Saint-Petersburg would make the cut without hesitation. So much so that I do plan on returning for a longer stay this year.

While I’d been before, this last visit was my first time during the summer. The 20+ hours of sunlight and warmer weather really brings the beautiful city to life, and all the character it contains. I could go on and on about all the things I love about the city, but I’ll save that for other posts. This one is about the photos.

So here’s 33 photos that I was able to capture during my time in Saint-Petersburg…

33 Street Photography Photos from One Week in Bangkok, Thailand

After leaving my home in Ho Chi Minh City, on my way to traveling Europe for the summer, I decided to fit a stop in Bangkok, Thailand. It was a chance to meet the many talented local street photographers here, while of course fitting in some time for street photography of my own. Bangkok was a challenge with how many of the streets and neighborhoods can feel empty, but after exploring enough and getting some local advice, I was able to find some spots for photography.

So here’s 33 photos that I was able to capture during my time in Bangkok…

33 Street Photography Photos from One Week in Hanoi, Vietnam

Living in Ho Chi Minh City, I had to make a visit up to Vietnam’s capital. Hanoi quickly became one of my favorite city’s in Asia for street photography, with endless character, charm, places to shoot, and people just as photography friendly as back home in Saigon. Being thousands of years old, you feel the city’s age when exploring the streets. From a city of over 3 million people, there’s an authentic, old world atmosphere it exudes.

So here’s 33 photos that I was able to capture during my time in Hanoi…

33 Street Photography Photos from One Week in Hong Kong

While living in Ho Chi Minh City, I took a week break up to Hong Kong. It had always been high my list and it didn’t disappoint. While the clouds and rain didn’t do it any favors, I still left Hong Kong loving it and wanting to return. It’s one of the more unique cities I’ve been to with an international urban vibe mixed with old world Asia. It has one of the most impressive city skylines I’ve seen, but down on the ground in the narrow alleys and older neighborhoods, you can experience a completely different atmosphere.

Hong Kong has such a variety of scenery and life that I’d recommend it as one of the best cities in Asia for street photography. So here’s 33 photos that I was able to capture during my time in Hong Kong…
