It's a 5 year old Sony P&S small enough to fit into a front pocket. Just wanted to see what it could do I'll go back to my real set up of the D5100 and 70-300VR.

Judging by his face, you used the Sony to shoot & run..... The DSLR is a bit bulky for that...

Day 003 -- 01/03/2013 -- Street Portrait

The Canon is an old cam I had before the switch to Nikon. I tried Canon and Panasonic and ended up with the Nikon in the end.

The lighting is natural light and the curved light is just the light hiting a curved wall behind the girl. Just playing around the start of this years P365. I'm deciding on a new group of people to focus on for this year. So far I'm thinking of the Hassidic Jews who frequent the Fairfax area of Los Angeles, the older generation of people who live in Beverly Hills and/or the want-to-be actors who run and exercise in the Hollywood Hills trail called Runyan Canyon.

I am sure you will find the right group to fuel your passion! That explains the light, really nice effect!! That canon does a great job!

Nice people pictures. I am always amazed at how well some people can get just the right people photo. I have a hard time doing that. My father had no problems taking great photos of people. Me, I just stick with critters, nature, and the occasional weird still life.

thanks for the nice comments Nikonites

The reflection in the glasses is very interesting, very good.

I don't think my 5100 is related to your 5100 at all.

Your shots make me want to capture better images and drop-kick my camera into the trash can all at the same time...

Sheesh.
