wrong forum?

but what equipment are you shooting with?

First, this should probably be in the Photo forum.

With that said, I think 2, 5, and 9 are the strongest images. The rest don't say much. I really like the mirroring in #5, took me a couple looks to catch it. You've got some good stuff, keep it up.

Interesting pictures. I'm not qualified to critique your technical ability, but the subject material's interesting, and looks candid.

What a bummer that it got moved here. I understand the reasoning a bit since photography and camera goes together, but I thought this forum is more of a gear forum. People come here for camera advice and not sharing their work.

Why black and white? NYC is such a colorful place..you're just muting it.

 

[DaveCSparty]

One can argue too colorful. It's a lot harder to place focus on where you want the viewer to look.

I really like this one! Lovely composition!

Well, if you look at all the threads, you'll find a whole lot of photo sharing. The thrust of this Forum is Digital photography, hardware and product. It is the correct place to be.

You seem to be enjoying your city sidewalks.

Nice photos anyway!

What did you use to convert to B&W?

Thanks Corky for the explanation, but I propose a photography forum if there's enough interest (might even drum up some!).

Thanks metalmania and everyone else who took the time to look at my stuff!

FP, I use Lightroom 3 for everything.

I'm a fan of street photography but haven't felt comfortable trying it in crowded cities.

Nice pictures, all candid?

 

[DaveCSparty]

Hey Ballatician, yep all candids

Crowded cities are the best place for street photography! Tons of subjects and you can stay pretty much unnoticed.
