Street Street photography (Image thread)

[Petach]

Pete - a very good set once again. Quick question-based on the framing and angle, do you literally "shoot from the hip", and guesstimate framing? I've tried that before and find it takes a lot of practice and a wider than my normal 35mm FOV. Thanks.

Hi Ed, my camera is invariably at a point 1\2 way between my sternum and my belt buckle in landscape position. I hip shoot if i am at right angles to the subject sometimes....or if I think I can get away with it just swivel my arm at the elbow holding landscape position. Glad you like.

cheers

Pete

I took these with my uncles G11. I actually didnt find it a great camera , nearly everything was blurred and it kept shooting at iso 800 - when i switched to 100 nothing turned out even though I shoot at iso 100 always on my digilux .I dont know if there is something wrong with the camera as I was looking for a firmware upgrade but there wasnt any .My nephew has a g3 which is brilliant !!

Incredible shot Pete. The blurred insanity of urban life with only his face perfectly still and in focus. Wonderful!

I was going back to re-process a couple of Coney Island shots from my time in NYC last spring (I still have a lot that are snapseed processed and every now and then I notice a couple that just need to be reworked with LR and SEP) and I found this one for the first time and worked on it. I'm sure there are more in those archives - I may find a few more or they may just lay dormant - its not like I go back in there without a purpose, which means very very rarely...

Thanks Ray. In all honesty, it was a reaction shot....one in which I surprised myself at how fast I really can move if I need to.

I thought this one would float your boat and I am pleaased it did.

Thanks for your continuing encouragement.
