Standing Out In The Crowd by lesip

Standing Out In The Crowd

Today's One Night Stand is Street Photography. I knew exactly where to go with the weather absolutely gorgeous for a January day. With the camera hanging at my waist and my finger on the button I just walked, shot and hoped for the best. Don't think anyone had a clue I was taking pictures of them as we passed each other. Of course I had lots of just sidewalk shots and just shoes but here is one of my favorites. I wonder if the girl in the middle knows who much attention she gets? Putting my other favorite in my extras album.

OMG I just found on my selfie pic from yesterday is on the PP...
should I thank everyone for that? lol love you guys
Great candid shot

They are all walking at the same pace and it looks pretty fast so this was a really good shot!

Wow - a great picture especially shot from the hip. Will add to the memory bank to try when I'm a little braver.

Thats a great capture Leslie. I've tried to get this too here and not so easy.

Fantastic street shot, Leslie. A whole new meaning to the term "shoot from the hip" ; ) And congrats on your selfie being on the PP--loved it.

Really well-done street shot - especially as you "shot from the hip"! She really does stand out, doesn't she?!
January 13th, 2013  
People going places! Nice catch.
January 13th, 2013  
Good catch. What a great way of getting street photos - must try it myself.
January 13th, 2013  
Wow, it's perfect especially since you were shooting from the hip. Street is so tough but it looks like you've got it.

@espyetta Yep it does have a good crop to it but I didn't have to straighten which was surprising. Guess camera was hanging pretty level from my neck. Might not have ended up with anything but there was no stress involved with taking the pictures.
January 14th, 2013  
this is a wonderful street shot... nicely done! :)

Love this, all very natural, a perfect capture.

Oh the stories in this photo. Quite aside from the main focus - the young woman and the guy beside her who seems to be kind of trailing in her wake, trying to get her attention. Where are the man and woman holding hands on the left going looking so serious. What about the older guy behind them? Has he just remembered something he should have done?

Great capture. Just superb.
