More on street photography...
Following the recent post on street photography there is a free online issue of JPG magazine dedicated to street photography here.
There were several comments on the Yahoo list on my previous street post (scroll down a little). You can read the thread here.
I have been using analogue rangefinders recently for street photography. Here are a couple of recent shots taken in Aalborg, Denmark (Leica M6, Voigtlander Color Skopar Classic 35mm lens).
Street musician
Delta 400 rated at 400 developed in Prescysol EF.
Lost something?
Neopan 400 rated at 400 developed in Prescysol EF.
These were scanned on a Minolta Dimage Scan Elite 5400. The Delta shot had some Noise Ninja to reduce grain. I am finding that different films produce different levels of grain aliasing. Ilford HP5 and Delta 400 seem to be the worst with my scanner. Neopan 400 is fine as it is.
It is interesting to me that using the Ricoh GR Digital has led me in a round about way back to using film and rangefinders. Ever since I got the GR Digital I just cannot face lugging around the Canon 5D and all those heavy lenses. The Canon is now used more as a studio type camera.
