These are brilliant.
Proof that taking good photos lies in the photographer, not how much is spent on equipment. If I could have half the imagination you have shown here I'd be delighted.

Great set, pleased I inspired someone.
I love number 4 that background really adds to the final image.
But number 1 is great & shows what can be achieved by talking to people...

Cheers folks, the way I conducted myself felt right, and I was happy with the images that I saw and then captured.
Re no.4, glad you like the background, as I was transported to Hansel and Gretal, when I saw her and the candies, and they were integral to the image.

Great set and well done, I've never found "street" easy. No1 and 3 are my favs, your style reminds me of erstwhile member Thougnton.

Yes they're very Thoughton-esque, including the use of titles! No 1 (although I don't like the crop) and no. 6 for me... No. 1 isolates the subject nicely and makes a nice candid portrait, and no. 6 has a good interaction between subject and onlookers. The others I find less striking - two heads would be lovely with just one head IMHO, she's got a wonderful face.

Cheers folks and thanks for comments.
I have checked Thougnton out, and he is still around. I have bookmarked his website, some interesting images.
Re the titles, hopefully they don't detract, just what's in my head when I click or review.
The two headed lady was very busy, and had gone when I returned to try some front on.

Hi Nigel (again) No offence to the subject but there is something grotesque about the lady in #4.
I like the photo a great deal although the clever "two heads" angle I find slightly distracting because she is so interesting to look at on her own. I would like to see this one in colour too- it looks like the background would possibly emphasise the oddness of the shot- its a bit David Lynch I think. I think you could really go for it with the vibrance slider.
On the whole they are a great set. Well done.

I hope you have enjoyed my posts today, I had a lot of fun and grew in confidence...either approaching people, or candid.
Thanks to 'cabstar' for the inspiration.
