[Leica] La Barceloneta, street life

[luisripoll at telefonica.net (Luis Ripoll)]

Hi Alex,

Thank you very much for looking and your kind words. Street photography is
not so difficult as you can think, is ppractice, looking, sometime be
capable to be anticipated to the action, be intuitive, don't have carefully
to take images of the people, a smile arrange many things, i.e. for a
se?orita "is not my fault you are so beauty".... Try it, be close to your
subjects and enjoy!. Don't have to much confidence on the automatic cameras,
preset at every step you do on the street your manual Leica.

Thanks for looking,
Saludos cordiales
Luis

Luis, very nice set indeed. I wish I'd develop my skills for street with
35mm lens, requires close approaching which I'm not yet brave enough to do.
Still perfer 50mm focal length for street...
Enjoyed your images, show us more...

Thanks, Alex
