I think I did some cropping

yes, the first two were taken with the Portra

btw, think am gonna hang around Petaling Street tomorrow afternoon please join if anyone wants to have some fun as well

The one I just posted the other day two were somewhere at Petaling Street area. Not in the market but the surrounding. I tend to walk around the surrounding then inside, more interesting to me and much more local compared to the street market itself.

i think there are people that suggest people using only wide angle prime for street but personally, i use everything, from manual prime to 70-200.. so personally as long as you're comfortable with the lens, then you should use it

Few shots of my walk last Saturday.

you're too kind sifu. i learnt a lot from your shots!

speaking from someone that enjoys roaming on the street with intention to shoot, i was trying to understand what is street photography too but after sometime, i gave up since everyone has their own understanding, some says you must include people in, and some says to have their face, and with their face some says it's not street photography but portrait photography. so it's a never ending. my take from this is shoot and have fun, in the process browse online and see what kind of street shooting catch your attention more, and from there you would slowly learn about what is worth shooting what is not worth shooting. one of my fav street photographers is Ho Fan, reason being that his photos draw me into the scene itself. and see how all the photos are composed so carefully that you not they are not mere snapshots.

Keep an album of photos which inspire you. And view these photos time to time and compare to yours. This does not only meant for street shooting but for all genre. Learnt this from a local photographer and found it to be very useful.

Do not limit yourself with what to take what not to take, if there is time that you could see something great in a super close up picture, step forward and take that shoot. Am sure you have heard it countless time, photography in the form of art is very subjective and hence do not limit yourself.

Just to share my thought that I bring with me whenever I shoot, but of course, I am still trying hard to get the real keepers shot.

Eric Kim.. Love it or hate it I am very impressed with the way how he interacts with his subject tho.. I certainly do not have the guts to do so but yeah, he is good in what he is doing

i do prob once for a month but i visit hk almost every year to do street shooting, and to look for friends (this is just excuse )

first shot could been better if you get a real people happen to be another side of the frame. that would create a nice juxtaposition

the second shot could been better if you manage to wait for that subject enters into the frame and create a nice shadow. to me this would be more interesting. the light is good, and the thing you need is subject. understand that it's on a metro so the door will close anytime, so sometimes it's about luck.

that's just what i thought tho, might work might not work

not a really good shot but yea, just for fun

the surrounding doesn't really relate to your subject. so maybe get closer if you can
