Get Your Pig On ~ Seattle BBQ

Saw this loverly mobile porkery this Summer in downtown Seattle when I was taking brother Pete and his lovely new wife to see the Pike Street Market. It just made Suzy and me laugh.

Hope you enjoy seeing it as much as we did. It was my first post on the most excellent photographic collections of street shots from around the world. This Facebook group is called On Every Street.

Here is their treatise: Welcome to “On Every Street”

It is all about street photography. The group is open. Street photography, as understood in this group, is more of an approach to photography than it is a description of where the shot has been taken. … Before you post please read this description carefully.

REQUIREMENTS: Literally, your picture does not have to be taken in a street. It must, however, honour these requirements

1) Should be shot in a PUBLIC AREA, as opposed to a private area
2) Have PEOPLE as the bearing element
3) Be UN-STAGED and/or UN-POSED

Normally “streets” are associated with urban areas. Street photography, as such, is “an urban concept”. That is the way it is intended in this group too.

STRAIGHT PHOTOGRAPHY:  Your pictures should be “straight photography”, meaning only a minimal of postproduction should be allowed. You should NOT make radical changes to your pictures compared to what you have shot.

    Forgot to mention that the eatery is called Maximus/Minimus. It is still roaming the Seattle streets looking for one more BBQ cuisine lover.
