Street Musicians

Taken with K 100D Super and Hanimex 28mm (net 42mm) MF lens. The window display behind made the shot for me, which is why I converted it to monochrome in Photoshop then popped the colour.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

Those buskers know where to set up, eh?

Nice work!

Thanks, chaps!

Just in the right place at the right time...I admit to missing a better shot when a little boy walked forward to offer some money. Too slow, I guess. Certainly wrong lens!

That's just it, Mac, I think they were blithely unaware of the irony...
