Default Candid Photography - Post Yours

I know I do not post often but I would like to see candid shots by others on this forum. So please post your candid photos of people. This is one of my favorite types of photography because it shows people behaving just as they do in their natural surrounds instead of posing.

I'll go first.

juliehinton33,

Thank you for being able to choose one very good example and post it at the right size. This has spontaneity and the background (open door on bus) gives context. Even with bright high Sun, your exposure is good, face shadow and detail very nice.

But thought it was a worthy shot - she pops into my cafe every time i'm there... this, obviously wasn't in the cafe, this was me sneaking a shot out my window and across the street...

All of these were candid. No idea who they are, though.







I know the focus is a bit off on the last shot, but I still like it.

Beauty is not in the eye of the beholder but the angle in which you shoot the picture.

Default I call this *SUMMERTIME*

Candid is my favorite type of shot. NOt very big on posed shots.

This is Millineum Park in Chicago at the Crown Fountain.
