Calling all Photographers

Any phtographers out there in the maple world? I'd like to see your guys work and compare. With that I could probably pick up on some new ideas and such for I have no inspiration for shooting lately.

[quote=playback]i really enjoy your hong kong street photography, as for the ones with the time stamp. are those flim? because with my flim camera (nikon n80) the time stamp doesn't show up. with all photography, the time stamp really annoys me.
going back to the topic of your hong kong photography, i think you did for the most part a good job capturing the street life of hong kong. I can't do street photographer because I get a weird feeling people would feel weird if i tried photographing them at random, and i use manual focus so it would take a little longer than af. and i shoot full manual as well, so i do take a little bit of time reading off middle gray.
any tips on street photography?[/quote]
I used a Nikon N80 as well. on the back of the film door is where you can set your timestamp. make sure the date is correct
and that you set the small circular dial on the bottom to [+] instead of [ ] if you want the date imprinted.
Tips on street photography?
1. don't be afraid of people and their reactions, they will rarely do anything about you taking pictures of them
2. however, do not take pictures of tourists or homeless people, they usually do not take it lightly
3. be discreet. don't hold your camera out like a weapon or anything. just snap, and walk away.
4. you don't have to ask permission to take a picture of someone. that's awkward.
5. keep your camera on general settings while walking around, you don't want to miss opportunities
