Straight Outta Philly? (Weekend Street/Reflections # 175)

 

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

This poor woman seemed confused when I took her picture.

Straight Outta Compton is a movie about a 1980s rap group from Compton, California. The city and the group were notorious in those days. Incidentally, my mother grew up in Compton; having her pose in front of this poster would have been fun.😀

                                             Have a great weekend!

Now you can link reflections and/or street photography. 

Please no posed pictures, portraits, animals, etc. unless there is a reflection.

"Street photography is a genre of photography that records everyday life in a public place. The very publicness of the setting enables the photographer to take candid pictures of strangers, often without their knowledge."

  2. The women in your photo does look surprised. Yes, I do remember the group, but was never a fan of their music.
