The Daily Commute (30/03/2012)

Friday has finally arrived and the weekend is almost upon us. What a lovely sunny week it's been in London. It's too bad it won't last into the weekend.


Anyway, I hope you've enjoyed the Budapest Street Photography set which I posted last week, sponsored by the Hungarian Tourist Board (only joking).


Here are some shots of the Daily Commute to tie you over until the weekend:

London Street Daily (20/03/2012)

Happy first day of spring/Persian new year/Nourooz to everyone.
What a lovely weekend I had in sunny Budapest.


I'll have some cool shots from Budapest for you soon.


In the meantime, here are some shots out and about in London.

Bonus shot... Some lovely cherry blossom, so what if it's not Street? It's spring. Shot on the Panasonic LX3:

The Daily Commute (15/03/2012)

It's been an interesting couple of days. Earlier this week I met some fellow London street photographers and also the now borderline internet celebrity  and LA "Streettog", Eric Kim. I also again met my personal favourite, Charlie Kirk (aka Twocutedogs).
Since then I've been struck by a nasty cold and today I'm off to Budapest for the next few days.


Here are some Daily Commute shots.

London Street Daily (13/03/2012)

Hey folks...
First post of the week, and I'm going to start with some photos which have been lying around neglected! Mind you there's a good reason for them being neglected!!


GF3 + 14mm f/2.5 on the first photo, 25mm f/1.4 on the second, third and fourth.

Night Time Street with Flash (10/03/2012)

So I went out again on Friday night and shot some more with flash and I'm really starting to enjoy it.
I think it's allowing me to discover a new side to my street work and helping me develop as a photographer.


Here are the shots, taken on the GF3 + 14mm f/2.5 + Onboard flash:

Night Time Street with Flash (09/03/2012)

I went out for a second round of night time street photography with flash, mostly to see how I feel about working with flash. I'm aware that I would achieve better shots with an off camera flash, however this experiment is to see how comfortable I feel about "flashing" people (oh dear, that just sounds wrong) and what their reaction would be like.
I found that most people don't notice or don't realise that I was taking a photo of them and assume that I was snapping something else. I did get the odd glare or "WTF" look here and there but nothing too alarming.


Here are a few of the better shots. Shot with the GF3 and onboard flash + 14mm f/2.5:

The Daily Commute (07/03/2012)

It's Wednesday already. Which means only two full days until the weekend.
Some more shots 
Here are a couple of new shost in "The Daily Commute" set.


Any feedback, critique or comments are much appreciated.

The Daily Commute (04/03/2012)

It's end of the week, and what a great week it's been.
As you may know I was featured on Peter Thomson's London Street Photo. However the highlight of the week was probably meeting Charlie Kirk (aka twocutedogs) briefly. This dude has such a genuine aura in his work, it's quite refreshing. He's also a huge creative influence on me.


Anyways. A few shots from the past week; GF3 + 14mm f/2.5:

The Daily Commute (02/03/2012)

The Daily Commute, back to you in glorious colour... minute a bit of vibrancy to counter the added contrast.


Enjoy your weekend.
