Some street photography I did in Vietnam


1.


Rebel XT, 18-55 f/3.5-5.6, f/5, 1/400, ISO 400 @ 15mm, Sepia


This lady is one of many who buys plastic bottles, bags, old newspaper, and cardboard for reselling to recycler.


2.


Rebel XT, 24-70 f/2.8L, f/5.6, 1/100, ISO 200 @ 24mm, sepia


A street vendor selling cigarettes, notice the sticker on the side of his cart, it means "Smoking is bad for your health!"


3.


40D, 70-200 f/2.8L IS, f/3.5, 1/160, ISO 400 @ 200mm, sepia, added some noise in CS2


The lady is a street food vendor, I don't remember what she was selling, the little boy is one of many kids who sell lottery tickets issued by the government.

40D, 24-70 f/2.8L, f/5.6, 1/160, ISO 250 @ 24mm

I love the last one most. Motorbike, noodles, and grapefruit. Can't beat it!

I'd like to resurrect this post because I really love good BW photos but find them very challenging. It would be great to see some of your best shots and hopefully glean some of your secretes to getting some good results. Please show and tell, I'd love to see what you've got and to learn a few things from you.
