[Leica] IMG : Egypt - People 4 - Peter D

[Philippe]

First one shot with the camera to my eye, using the longer end of he zoom.

The second one was through the window of the van at a junction.

Third one was really "from the hip ». Strolling slowly. Camera strap around neck. Hands on the camera as low as possible. Visibly gripping it for fear of theft ;-)  « Guessframing", pretend you look elsewhere, fire ! Keep moving on. Never turn back. Never check if the shot worked. That’s for later back at the hotel or home. Auto everything on, including face detection, and silent shutter.

I have more coming up tomorrow, shot with the camera resting on my knees while touring a neighbourhood in a horse-drawn carriage. Got plenty of smiles in return to ours :-)
