Finally Someone to play to...

 

I walked around Whyte Ave for about an hour and saw her a couple of times. She appeared to me to be about 15-16 y/o. Interesting style but seemed kinda creepy for a 40 something y/o man with a camera lurking on a busy street taking pictures of people.

Thanks, I am glad you enjoyed it.

I am using a new monitor and this is about the 1st images I have processed and posted with it. Do they look washed out to anyone else? I noticed on a couple pics there seems to be that bluish/grey hue as if I used a polarizing filter which I didn't.

I didnt get a lot of shots as I felt rather conspicuos (sp?) hanging around a busy street taking pics of people. One girl, while I was waiting to cross the street approached me and said "Hey whatcha got your camera out for?" I replied "I am taking pictures!" (in my mind I was thinking - Heres your sign...)

I was walking back to my car when I saw her sitting with him. I thought perfect why hadn't she been there an hour before when I took the other pics. I agree with everyone else. I think her funky look really makes the shot.

In the first shot I wanted to see what it would look like with the musician on the corner with the names of the business split on both sides of the building. One side is a Cocktail Bar and on the other is a Fine Bistro with the same header name... Continental Treat. I tried to split the name purposely but I guess no one picked up on that...

Thanks for all the kind comments....

 

Thanks Sandi, I think she made the shot...
