Eric, nicely seen and captured. Well done.
Thanks, Elana! If you ever get in the neighbourhood, don’t miss Nancy on a fine day, such lovely shooting there. :)

You don’t use PS or lightroom? how interesting.. this is good Eric, very good, what a great moment you’ve captured
Thank you, Ang! I have a copy of Lightroom somewhere, but I alternate between Paintshop on my desktop pc (which has a nice large screen) and Photoshop on my Macbook. Generally I prefer to work in PS (better 16bits handling and larger brushes), but Paintshop has still things that are missing or non-obvious in PS. Plus, it’s much cheaper. :)

ROFL – omg, can’t believe it you captured that! Great shot! LOL
Actually I had totally forgotten about it until just before I posted this… but on that day I shot a lot of nice pictures, this was one of the first. Nancy is nice all by itself, but there was a big party going on and the weather was exceptionally good. Thanks! :D

OMG! AHAHAH This is so great, Eric!
Hehheh, thanks Damien! :D I’ve been away for a couple of days and it’s nice to find your message. 1600 pictures in 8 days, more madness will follow, I hope. :D

I tell you, my friend, this one is a classic beauty. It puts a huge smile on my face, something that is a part of street photography and sometimes we tend to forget: humor.
To me the way he is dressed is just fantastic, it gives the photo that sense of uniqueness that is irreplaceable.
1600 in 8 days!! Amateur!:P
Hahaha! I think humor is underestimated in Street too. :)

Great candid! Love the suprised look in his face.Did he have a go at you for taking his photo?
Thank goodness, he didn’t. :D It was a terrific day of shooting, Nancy is beautiful and the weather fantastic, I’d have missed something. Actually I can’t remember what I did, but it wasn’t a problem.
