another lucky shot^_^
i raised my gx9 as i was attracted by the shadows in front of me. i was viewing the image through evf when this hat-wearing gentleman showed up. instantly i realized this was my lucky moment.

Made yesterday evening walking back home from work ... The Oly 12-100mm f 4 Pro is not a good lens for street shooting after chicken goes to bed so I am starting to think about the Mitakon 17mm f 0.95 as an alternative:

BUT I could not bring myself to put the image through Topaz DeNoise, the gungy look from the noise grain gives the image an appeal I can't quite describe ... (And Topaz DeNoise AI turns everything into a diarrhea smoothness in the Low Light setting)

A lucky shot one-handed. Today I learned another benefit of my new (to me) Oly 12-100 Pro: it's a wonderful dog walking lens ... no more lens switching for further subjects ... though it still requires a 2nd hand to zoom in its still one hand-able for shooting. (And I was quite surprised that I was able to get some color and form back into the clouds as they were blown, I believe that a beautiful cloudy background adds more drama and beauty for street images.

Hanging in there? (Someone put 2 kids socks on the spikes of the town's main park ... for whatever reason ... I do hope it's not for drying them) ... also HHHR.

I took this in Chicago in 2013, at night, in an alley. We talked for 20 minutes and then he lit up the darkness and I captured this photo. I work on it from time to time and change it. Now I remember the human interaction on the street with someone I didn't know.

This is a fantastic image. I don't need to know what you were doing in that alley. Some of my fondest memories had their genesis in alleys.

Here's another from 2013, this time an alley in Bologna Italy. I enjoy early morning and late evening walks, when most people are sleeping or eating. This woman had spent the night sleeping off the beer from the night before, and she was startled and amused to find an American photographer talking to her in English.

I haven't in a while, but will again as I miss the interaction.
