Noise, diggin the photos :thumb:. What kind of insect is that in the 2nd photo?

If I had taken it in color, it would had been just a common photo of a common street.

it also helps cover up the fact that i was hungover and my hands were shaking and i had a crap camera :D

Gurthanthaclops, not sure what kind of bug it was. i was at a conference in Macedonia and we took some field trips to the countryside to look at some iron age sites. i was shooting the plants, but then the bug appeared. big grasshopper i guess :)

You've got a really good eye, Flower Child. :)
Great shots.

Thats probably my favorite too. Shooting unposed people in their natural little habitat doing their thing has become my obsession. A person's face can be so interesting. I always lean toward old men as subjects just for that reason.

I agree. Some people have a knack of finding the "right shot" in almost anything. Excellent photographs, and also now my new favorite signature around. "Your face is my case."

Thank you! And yeah Jackie Chiles is my hero. :D

Hey man, I feel you on that. I live out in semi-country myself. Surrounded on one side by a town (if you can call it that) with a population of 400 and on the other side miles and miles of endless fields. Personally I feel that urban, urban street photography has been done to death. I find small town people shots and street shots to be sometimes even more interesting just because it hasn't been done as much. You might try that. If you have any little cafes or diners around, I would go in there and get some old duffers drinking coffee or something like that.

Wow, these are outstanding shots sir. Love them. Your Eiffel Tower shot especially impresses me because of your unique spin you put on a common shot. The angle is great and the branches to the top of the frame add a wonderful feel to the image, and great choice with the black and white. Love your composition on the other- I'm curious how you got a night shot like that so clear without a tripod or anything.

Increased shutter speed?

and from my experiences of crap cameras (believe me I've had my fair share) you can't control the shutter speed
