Hi Luke,

Thanks for your comments that I do appreciate.

I am learning and experimenting with my street work. One of the things I have noticed is that in this type of work there is little or no time to think or plan a picture in advance. I see something that attracts my attention and I snap! With practice one develops a sense or a feel of what angle or perspective may work. Many times I see a situation that I think would develop in a certain way and then move to the best view point and snap! If you call this planning or anticipation that too has to be done very fast!

The main factor in all this is that I just LOVE watching people and their behaviour and actions and all the rest of it.

Thanks again for your kind words.

Datta.

Datta, I am appreciating your style for street shooting. I love the angles and the perspective that accompanies these images. I often think that this might be a child's perspective. Everything is tall...or a short person's perspective. Sometimes close (unbearably close and sometimes with incredible emotional distance). Lukek
