On The Street’s (Part2)
-
Hi All, again
I am really interested in reading your opinion so Pleas view and critique I would appreciate some honest feedback, as I am only new to photography, I am currently using a canon 450d with a canon 50mm f2.5 compact macro lens, I also have the kit lens that I don’t use much. I know the macro lens is not ideal for street photography, (but beggers and choosers) I bought camera second hand and the lens came with it. Any advice welcome…

I like the first 3 here with the shadows one being the best.
I don’t find the subject matter interesting in the last 2 although it’s is possible something could have happened in the wig shot eventually if you had the time to wait.
Hi All
Dave tanks again for words of wisdom, normally I don’t have a lot of time to fine tune my settings so often i just shoot and hope for the best (I’am hoping this will improve tn time). All though I had a good spot to shoot from near the wig shop but I lost the bottle once I was spotted and moved on, (this also I hope will improve with time) Hay it all keeps life interesting…Thanks for viewing
It will definately improve with time Hairy Gus. From what I have read street photography is one of the hardest forms to master, so you are doing not bad. You have very good focus on the subjects and I do like the shadow one. I also agree the wig shop could have been better if you waited, but like you I still have not mastered the nerves game of waiting around lol. As you have a macro lense, try out some macro shots in and around the home to get a feel for it. Read lots, boring but it is working for me :) Your kit lense is a good one to start you off, so don’t be too quick to disregard it. I know it is not as sharp as most but it does have a decent range to get you going when you are out and about. Look forward to seeing more
Connie xAs requested Rob. Works better then I thought It would. Thanks
BW Swiss Army Knife by HairyGus, on FlickrI actually like Shadow Land in colour. That golden hue works quite well I think. B & W should help the first shot. The bus and the woman in the red coat wouldn’t stand out as much which should focus more attention on the guy in focus.
I like the 1st one, it kind of singles out one mans individual day in a buzzing city
Hi All.
Thanks Fergus, did try it Shadow Land in B&W but it just didn’t work, I felt it softened the image and lost it’s intimacy. Thats the joys of photography we ALL have our own ways at looking at this truly wonderful world.John K Thanks for viewing and commenting I am glad you enjoyed the image.
And To All Thanks For Viewing…
