Default Ask and you shall recieve

I went into town today and asked random people if i could take their pictures. I was a little nervous at first but at the end of the day I went 3 for 3 so I return with high confidence. This is what I got.


this guy was truly sweet he posed like a champ.


outside the panera it took me two passes before I asked if I could take the picture


I went a little crazy on the sky but other than that I like this one

Tell me what you think

Hi there and "Welcome" to this most excellent site, I hope you enjoy yourself here and gain all you need to from it. Now as for the images, I congratulate you on having the nerve to go up to total stranger and ask to take their photo's. Well done it's not an easy thing to get used to, they are all interesting in their own way but I do like the middle one of the lady reading the book. Not sure what pp you did on your images but think if you did crop them then it's a shame you cropped the person in all 3. Apart from that I think you did a good job and in truth it's all a learning curve so hang in there and I look forward to seeing more of your images. Once again Welcome and have fun.
David.

Welcome to dPS. I've moved this thread form the critique section as it contained too many photos and didn't include the specifics requested in the critique forum rules.
