I thought the expression of the kid was perfectly in tune with the setting. Also the fact that he's going left and with little space to go, adds a good amount of tension.

The death of a child is always a tragedy, but let's put this in perspective, shall we? I mean they WERE palestinian.

I had a great time in Japan these last two weeks, but I totally regret not getting down to more street photography. I've been feeling really rusty lately so the little shooting I did do was a good kick-start to get me taking more photos in general.

This is really cool, but I think it would work really well as a square crop, showing less of the horizontal lines.

I like that a lot better. It's a really cool effect with the street lines, but so many of them is kind of straining on the eyes in my opinion.

I really enjoyed going out and trying to shoot street photography with an emphasis on colour in mind. My only other attempt with film was with Tmax a couple months back and I really didn't know what to focus on.

They say, "you mean it's just sounds?" thinking that for something to just be a sound is to be useless, whereas I love sounds just as they are, and I have no need for them to be anything more than what they are.

I've been keeping tabs on your photos, and I've wanted to tell you're really toeing the line between "pretty good shot" and "TRULY AMAZING CAPTURE!!" If you really like the processing then great, but I think you're too liberal with the clarity (?) slider.

I find them very evocative but I'm a sucker for high contrast b/w.

N'thing the enjoyment of those photos. High contrast B&W is where I want to live.

Also the fact that you're using a 5N gives me a LOT of hope because that's the digital camera I am most likely going to replace my D200 with.

Wow, thanks for the positive feedback, I seriously appreciate it. I am literally a photographic baby; before July the only photos I took were point-and-shoot drunken shots at parties...

Is this just the b&w or the colour work as well?

I completely agree with you on the first photo. I did that using a bit of HDR software because I'd just discovered HDR and I was super excited. :rolleyes:

The second one there I am pretty happy with. I am definitely a sucker for high contrast, or at least B&W with *real* blacks in it. This shot was taken really early in the morning with an ISO of 2500 (I can't believe I know what that means now...), so I think perhaps it's too grainy, but not much I can do about that.

Again, greatly appreciate the feedback.

I absolutely love it! I've never used a camera with a viewfinder so I can't comment on it being better/worse, but I find it such an easy camera to work with. The focus tracking is amazing - tap on an object on the screen and it will keep the focus on it while you move the camera round / zoom in and out. And just being able to flip the screen up or down to take photos from weird angles is so handy. I can't think of anything I'd like to change about it. Oh, and it's tiny, which for me is essential while I'm backpacking.

Just the B&W ones. I thought it was the clarity slider but I guess it was the HDR effect that was bothering me. I could swear I see the same thing happening in the crutch photo, but maybe it's just the high ISO playing tricks on me. Anyway, you should be happy with the shot. I would have processed it differently myself, that's all.

I like this subject matter, but it could use a re-processing i think. there's no pure whites, which makes the whole picture look kind of "grey" and bland. i know QPZIL is using a Hassy and film but his images are a very good example of what good black and white looks like, value wise.

Thanks for the suggestions! I'm pretty new to photography and wasn't sure what to do for a a b&w photo, I'll re-process to see if I can make it less 'grey.' Really appreciate the comments!

I've been told that it has that "nice vintage" look to it. Which is rather appropriate, since it's been shot with a camera from the fifties and a comparable b/w film. :downswords:
