So here are 5 more taken yesterday. Hope you like something.

From the past few days, my favorite two are ones where you didn't include the heads. The headless bicycler girl and the headless lady checking her leg or foot. Both are brilliant, as are many others, but these two stood out to me. Super work, and I'm glad you're still posting!

Yes, I remember these two without even going back in the thread.

Glad you liked something. I will not always get things right or post the ones i should post . That is just how it is. Street Photography is crazy whether or not it is any good at all. That is just how it is. There's a TV programme about Street Photography in New York and i was blown away by a completely blurred out shot that was mis focussed and camera shake BUT WAS VERY AMAZING. I learned a lot from just that one shot or at least hope to have,
I really messed up a chance with the skateboarder kids Thursday . I should have done a lot better. Very bad. Lost that one. Should have been much better. They were fantastic to watch. Free to fly.
Hope to see more this week from Jason's daily walks over on the other thread.
Take a look at that you tube video posted here on Pentax SLR Talk even if you are not interested in the K3iii monochrome camera. It is a great watch with some superb photos.

Today looked very bleak. The clouds kept coming over and so light was dull flat crap light. I thought I was going to give it a miss but then as I arrived in the city the clouds cleared and the sun came out. Here are 5 from today. Hope you like something. There were quite a few I missed today / too slow to react or settings wrong so in that respect a bad day in the city. SUNSHINE GREAT LUCK THOUGH. Very lucky clouds cleared at the right time.

HELLO


I have photos today. I actually have one of my very favourite best ones today but you might not agree. Perhaps it is wrong to build your hopes up. That is a recipe for disappointment.

Here are 5 from today. There was sun occasionally so I was interested today. SUN = HOPE.

Hope you liked Something. I love the last one. but sometimes over time you change your mind on these things. Street Photography is not easy to judge. Is it rubbish or is it ok. Not much between those two answers.

Thank you for looking.

Hello Dino. I like the last one a lot too.
Any chance you could post a version in color?
 
Dino, that last set was great!
 
Hi.
There was sunshine today so I have pictures.
Very Special day actually because of another photographer I spotted across the road and we gave the thumbs up across the street a long way away. When I got back I was delighted to see on the raw file a PENTAX he was using. Looks like possibly 77mm. If you go to the other thread " today with your Pentax " here ( Jason's thread ) then you will see him.


Here are 5 from today. Not as good as yesterday's flock of pictures but I like them still. ( I am biased slightly i guess )

Check out the other thread for the gentleman across the street captured quite a distance away but enlarged to see his beauty camera clear as a bell.

I will look at a colour one for you on this occasion. It looks good in colour anyway but the light brushing across her face is better in black and white. I will post it on the other thread today with your Pentax in the next half hour. Hope you like it.
