More bloody Paris…..
-
These look a little over exposed & there is nothing really in them to give an indication of the location.
I like the second one. Nice old feel to it and I like the low contrast background, looks like it could be a street shot from the 40’s.
Hi Adrian,
I like 2 & 3. #2 more so.
I get a feelgood feel from it probably due to the nice happy expressions of the couple in the foreground.I like the scene in #3. The nice old looking building with people relaxing.
I’d like to be there.#1 is not really saying much to me.
The portions of people in the frame don’t help me especially the persons back intruding on the rhs.#4 is the type of image that I know little about.
Thanks for posting.
John.
Thanks for the C&C John,Niall, John
John 17 – I had a look at the histograms…. a bit flat mid tones to highlight alright.
It was very overcast when I was there, with a watery sun powering through… left filters at home.John, Would like to get into Street, it quite intrigues me, however I don’t know anything about it….. must do some reading.
I don’t know what are the do’s and don’t, with No. 1 I was trying to get impression of people browsing, maybe should have slow shutter speed down and introduced some motion blur?Niall, Thanks for the comment.
A.
Thanks
AdrianI like to do a little street photography but it is difficult.
I feel that you have to disconnect yourself from yourself if that makes any sense?
You have to be raw & sometimes intrusive about what you’re shooting but also involved with your subjects.Just a short docu’ on it.

I know exactly what you are trying to say.
There was a pic on here from a street walk in the liberties, one of the shots was of a couple pushing a buggy with a small child, the man in the shot was as rough looking as anything, staring down the lens…… Obviously telling the photographer to F off.
If that was me I would have lacked myself…… Unfortunately I can’t find the post.
Cheers.
I must admit that I thought that it was against the law in France to photograph people unawares. If this is so I guess you were lucky to get away with it.

In my opinion this is incorrect Tex! Can you imagine then the issues trying to photograph in Paris & all
its world famous locations. I’m not a legal guru by any stretch but I’ve attached a link if you with to read through it.http://ambafrance-us.org/spip.php?article640″ onclick=”window.open(this.href);return false;

You cannot take a photo of an individual if there is an expectation of Privacy, i.e. it would be illegal to take a photo of someone in their garden behind a 20 ft wall.
Therefore in the street you do not have an expectation of privacy.
