I'm glad you used the wink smiley Karl otherwise we'd have been a bit worried about youI like the lady in the 3rd shot best
Some nice shot Peter, one suggestion, have you thought about isolating the girl in the first shot by blurring the background I think it would be a great image then? shame on you though for not getting it right in the camera

all good but the pick of the bunch is number 4 for me. The shadows are less harsh than on the direct flash shots. well done

Agreed, but what can you do? It was dark (mostly), and the street lighting was minimal.all good but the pick of the bunch is number 4 for me. The shadows are less harsh than on the direct flash shots. well done
I used 'bare' flash on very few shots, most were diffused with an Omnibounce. The Lumiquest SoftBox wouldn't have been an option in these crowds.

It wasn't meant to be a criticism, I did say that all the pics were good and that number 4 was my favourite because of the softer less harsh lighting.

no 4 !!!!
Best light. Nice colours. Good composition.
And not "making show" - not aware of being before the camera - that means: natural. Also the different generations....
good!

I didn't take it as a criticism, no offence taken, and none meant.It wasn't meant to be a criticism, I did say that all the pics were good and that number 4 was my favourite because of the softer less harsh lighting.
I was rather looking for tips/advice. Night time street photography of this sort is not something I do a lot of.
