alrite , here they are.. i decided to go on a train trip around melbourne and the suburbs and this is what i came up with.. so again.. most of these are street focused... as usual for me! hah!!
i hope you like these images.. i met some fantastic people today and overall i really enjoyed myself. i was walking around for almost 6 hours.. ps- the compression on photobucket has made some of these images look fuzzy and blurred..

Thanks DV. Too many to make a comment on each but I do like your "street style" some interesting ones with the color and shadows, other with your B&W grainy conversion, and other of just the grittyness of the street.

When I was in my 20s I carried around a polaroid with "instant film" great conversation breaker (read gilrs) but too expensive to do so many pictures. When I got my first SLR film camera I shot a lot of B&W in the city. I have no idea what has happened to those pictures over the years.

Keep up the work, it's fun and you bring smiles and responses from others. Have a Merry Christmas

Thanks for the Xmas gifts, DV. Numbers 5 and 14 really stand out in my eyes as superlative. Keep up the great work. Regards.
