Nice work, I hate photographing people, I am too shy to do so. I feel rude trying to take someone's picture, even if they want me too.

It's part and parcel of what we do. Photographing people is a highly personal thing. It helped to bring me out of my shyness. As you become more comfortable with your equipment and technique, this will come to you grasshopper.

Charlieboy, very nice images. I especially like the nephew, in stride with jammies and tennis shoes on. He obviously couldnt wait to get outside- where's the SNOW?

Concerts are a real thrill too. I enjoy that having a badge lets you go where most people can't. It's a feeling of power.

Not much snow around here. Around 10 years back we had some for a few days. The kids loved it.

But I can also take some nice landscape shots:

And these shots were actually taken during a lightning storm at around midnight while we were on vacation in Maine. It was pitch-black except for these random bursts of flashes. I set the exposure to 5 secs. and got some good stuff. I apologize for them not being perfect. I was inside trying to shoot through the window and couldn't see a thing unless the lightning was lighting things up.

Concerts are fun and I like the challenge of not being able to use

flash. I shoot at a high ISO like 1600 with some fast glass like a 50mm

1.4 , 85mm 1.8 or 135mm 2.0

Charlie! Very sensitive and poingent. I like the bw that gives a grungy look, the fact that you showed only feet and sign, giving anonymity to your subject. Homeless, with a 7-11 cup- a sign of the modern times, and those shoes make you wonder the age of the person. Could an 18 year old be homeless in America today?

This is a wonderful storytelling image.

ps- I don't mean to sound like a professor here, I just love reading the images of others! Sometimes you can tell a lot about a person by what he chooses to see and remember through his photographs.

Well sadley I got home to see I will be forced backed to my old avatar.

I guess if I would have said that that picture was my wife it would not

have made a difference. I guess it was to much even though it was an 1

inch square where it was impossible to see anything even though there

was nothing really showing. Oh well back to my 3 year old mugshot I

guess.[:'(]
