Nice capture Mark, I have seen him about Cork alright, I think it’s stretching it a little to call him a boy :)

I’d have put this in street myself

I sort of find the amount of reflection in the eye on the first one a bit too distracting with the very tight crop giving not much else to look at, this is something I have had problems with doing equines lately.

The 2nd shot is quite a nice angle and expression in the eye.

The IHWT do great work alright.

Calling it a photograph is pure nonsense

If you want critique then the church looks like it needs a tiny CCW rotation to me, can’t think of anything else to say about it

Hi, Sorry I don’t know as I am not the original owner. I bought it ‘as new’ from someone about 9 months ago. It can’t be too old as the older ones where not HSM focusing as far as I know. cheers

Like the unusual perspective on this and there is lots of interesting details in the shot to look at, nice one

Yeah I generally agree on the cloning thing Alan, I certainly used to be that strict with myself about it, especially with street. However I have come round to the idea of cloning small things if they are distracting…only today I cleared some dog $#!* from a photo, I couldn’t recompose to get rid of it and I didn’t fancy actually clearing it up :)

Hitchcock it is definitely! Certainly a great capture from an iPhone

Really like the 2nd one, great perspective. Top results from the lubitel I must say

NIce one, he does indeed look mysterious.

Agree I’d have probably cloned the black dots.

I like the 1st one particularly, a nice capture

As for shooting from the hip, yeah I’d agree with Alan’s comments too

I have used the technique a few times, partly when I have felt a bit chicken and partly because I like the angle and slight randomness of it. Mostly I try to man up and just put the camera up to my eye and be fast and casual about it.

Street is good fun as it’s quite a buzz I find.

I like this Mark, it’s a quirky enough shot with the big arrow and the small people a good contrast.

Being slightly more dead for symmetry might have been nice but I don’t think it takes away from the shot.

Cheers, I think the actual sea is straight and it’s a bit of an illusion but i will check it.

I do have a thing for too much sky, the idea here was to make the person look small.

Can you tell me what condition the 35mm is in please? Any marks on the elements at all?

I work in Cork City so collection isnt a problem
