This Instagram Account Features Amusing Street Photographs And Has More Than 500 Thousand Followers (30 Pics)
Have you ever wondered how many pictures have been taken of you without you realizing it? Tourists, passersby or even street photographers, be it on purpose or not, might have included you in their camera frame when documenting their lives at some point. Maybe a photograph with you in it is hanging on someone’s wall or hiding in a family album, or perhaps you are even being showcased in a gallery or a museum.
In today’s article, we want to share some street photographs that have been featured by the Street Photographers Foundation, a platform dedicated to emerging photographers, artists, and designers alongside celebrated professionals to showcase their works. In their pictures, photographers captured random incidents and encounters in public places that are interesting and sometimes fun to look at.

The Street Photographers Foundation is entirely dedicated to street photography. Its purpose is to encourage new artists to showcase their works by offering a platform where they can do that.
On the foundation's website, it is said that "the subjects explored are broad, in terms of concepts, styles, and techniques. We want to explore the limits and possibilities."

Do you know what they were doing the rest of the day? I'm a stay at home mom who homeschools 3 kids. I am with them 24/7. When I take a few minutes to sit or try to glance at the news on my phone in public, I'm never comfortable because I know people like you will be judging me based on those few minutes and not the entire rest of the day spent interacting with my kids.

internet takes away closeness we used to have with friends and family, Sad
The kid is the only smart one in the photo. He's "reading," while the parents are wasting time on social media.
Maybe they are texting the babysitter or checking in on grandma. They could be paying bills. My knee jerk is the same as yours. I'm really trying to lean towards the light. Trying.
