[QUOTE="Lee, post: 217541, member: 8142"] Some really nice shots there Micheal! Street Photography is something that I have been drawn to for a good few years; in fact, I've wanted to try it out for longer than I have actually known anything much about a camera, but even now, it's confidence that has held me back. Yesterday, thanks to some user stupidity that prompted a trip to get some advice from a camera dealer (don't ask!) I decided it was as good a time as any to give it a try. I have to say I felt a lot more confident as I spent more time out there. Steady drizzle made it tricky being outside but a good lens hood kept the lens dry and a rain sleeve protected the camera. I came across a really interesting group of guys playing Scottish music with bagpipes and drums. They were surrounded by plenty of onlookers, many of whom were snapping away photos on their phones and point and shoot cameras so I felt a little 'safer' starting out there.
