People Watching

One thing I have enjoyed more this year is photographing people.

I think this has tied in with doing more street photography, oh and I absolutely suck at being discreet by the looks of some of my shots! I try to be subtle, I'm trying to get that natural look where they don't notice me, but also not be stalkery too! But I look at the shot and they're looking right down the barrel of the lens at me lol!

I have been brave and asked some if I can take their shot a few times but for the most time I try to be discreet to get a natural shot.

Below is a collection of some of my favourites from recent outings (Without hopefully not duplicating too much from recent posts)..

A final couple that aren't particularly portrait style, I'm not sure how to class them, but I liked them, and thats what counts..

As a photographer I try to mix what I do in my shots, I've done still life, some macro work, lightpainting and I enjoy a good model shoot. If you'd like to check out any of my other work I'm on Facebook, or you can find me on Instagram under neilru75

Thanks very much for looking

Badass shots! I want that top hat!

I enjoy street photography but either from the consumer angle or when I’m in Rome!

Or any other Continental city.

I find it very hard here for fear of someone having a go at me.

I agree, thankfully I haven't had any problems yet but I'm very aware too so try to be cautious
