Hi Luke,

Thanks for your feedback.

I keep asking all the time a simple question of which I do not always have an answer. 'What is the essence of a picture that I have taken or am taking'? 'What do I like about what I see?'.

In processing the picture I have taken, I experiment with cropping till I believe that I have a reasonable answer to the questions posed.

In street photography, I have no time to think and almost always a picture is taken spontaneously, and I try not to crop it to preserve my original response to whatever I
was attracted to.

Cheers.

Datta.

Datta, I have been watching as you have posted these images. They are unusual in that they are people-oriented and closely cropped. I think that I like what I see, but it keeps butting into my brain registering this is so very different.
