Street Shooters of October 2021

Bob Patterson

This month we’re doing something different. But we’ll get back to our normal submissions in the November issue.

Early this month I had the honor of being asked to judge the Fredericksburg Street Photography Collective shoot. So I thought we should dedicate the Shooters of the Month article to highlight the winners and honorable mentions from this unique contest.

The Fredericksburg Street Photography Collective in Fredericksburg, Virginia brought together dozens of photographers from northern and central Virginia as well as Washington DC and Maryland to participate in a shoot out. Participants were given three hours to make their best street photos in and around Downton Fredericksburg. Afterwords three of us judged the entries and selected first second and third place winners plus five honorable mentions.

If you think it’s hard to capture one good street photo a month working and whenever you like, try doing it in a three hour period in a very restricted place, and photos had to be straight out of camera (meaning no post processing).

It’s very difficult. But the contestants did not disappoint. We had a very difficult time narrowing down the entries and choosing the winners.

Contest Winners


First Place by Mark Gilvey

This is photo is the winner of the first annual Shoot Off hosted by the Fredricksburg Street Photography Collective in Fredricksburg, Virginia on October 2, 2021. Mark made this photo with his aging (6-year old) Sony RX 100 MKIII which he reviewed in this magazine in 2015.

Second Place by Jose Esquin

Jose was framing the street car when he heard the skateboarder coming down the street. He waited a few seconds and was able to frame him with his leg outstretched under the streetcar. The shadow was icing on the cake.

Honorable Mention Two by Shawn Faherty

This is the second of two photos that earned Shawn an honorable mention in the contest.The judges chose this one because it required an attentive eye to capture this moment in a split second. The contest rules require participants to submit photos out of the camera with no external editing, which means Shawn was unable to crop or adjust the photo before submitting it.
