First Attempt at Street Photography *Wink*

marcwang · 18th February 2005

Hey, had a leisure shooting session not too long ago....

I hate street photography because its just so hard to be exceptional.
Street shots may look easier than studio shots, but in fact ... you're often at your wits end if you have no flair for it. Its less technical, but it needs tremendous creativity and that "eye" which everyone talks about.

This is the occasional attempt, I seldom shoot street... its just too disappointing for me.

Pardon me if these arent even consider street stuff.
Some of these are actually meant for my "Singapore Experience" series.

i like the 1st two pics.... for #1, would prefer to see the faces of the models as well, which mirror what the cats are doing, one looking from the side and one looking face on. for #2, i like the colours and composition, it has a nice street feel to it.

look forward to seeing more street shots from you!
