3 of my ‘Street’ street shots from December. I have posted the full set on my Blog
An evening shot taken while out doing the Christmas lights
Tamron Adaptal f2.5 105mm lens K10D 1600 iso hand held
Reflections
Make me an offer
Pentax SMC f2.8 28mm on the K100D (A coat pocket DSLR and lens)
Ladder
Tamron Adaptall2 f3.5 200mm lens for this one. A lens I don’t use often, only because 200 is often too long or too short.
All my December shots are on my ‘Street Blog’ They were different lenses and cameras I’m afraid at least 50+% of them are G5 or GX100. (A quicker option for Street stuff)

The second image, "Make Me an Offer", simply SPARKLES. Very nice gradation of tones, deep blacks yet good shadow detail.
I guess what really makes this one shine is the mutlitude of tones all the way from inky black to purest whites.
Nice composition too...there are a lot of elements there, but the balance is very good.
NICE work.

Like Laurence said, the second shot is really special for so many reasons - the tones and composition are good, but the expressions on these faces make this a priceless image. |

Thanks. I now do my BW conversions in the RAW ACR converter. It gives good control.
The Boot Sale always produces a couple of decent shots. There are a great variety of characters there. With this shot I was lucky with the low sunlight being at the right angle to catch both men.

Thanks Attila that is one of my favourites from the month. I have a little camera shake on it (Night time 100mm lens hand held) but I think it is acceptable.
I hope some of you have the time to see the other 30+ December shots.

Love the last photo!
It has some 50'-60' atmosphere in it.
