Default Impromptu visit to Chinatown.

Decided to pop down at around 6ish today. Light was fading fast so i only had a few shots before it became dark. Only managed a few proper shots ):

Weathered.


A tiger a day keeps trouble at bay.


Where do i go from here?


Must head out earlier next week!

With the 70-200mm?

The first character has a beautiful face and expression. Well seen.

Thanks!

With the 70-200mm indeed. I'm still deciding which set-up is easier for street photography. The 70-200 2.8 is rather cumbersome and obvious lol.

On a side note, the photos were processed to give it a grainier and more saturated feel (i.e. film ).

Should i give it more saturation or leave it as it is?

Imo, I think the saturation is fine, but I tend to desaturated my photographs and warm it up so my idea of a attractive pp may be drastically different.

I think the current level is fine. PP should be used to suit your own preferences and style. I rarely pp for the reason that my pictures will be accepted by the mass.

Thanks Dry Box. While it is for sure that PP is an individual preference, i was afraid that what what i deemed as "acceptable" would be seen as being over-done by the public in general. I.e. Over-saturation, over-graininess (someone told me that the shots were "noisy", but the grain was added in for effect!)

To each his own i guess, but i just didn't want to over-do the effect.

Thanks a lot again dude, your comments are invaluable.
