After seeing #3, the woman in #5 looks oddly familar... dunno if you were going for that!

(btw if you are acquainted with that woman, I don't mean to offend)

Interesting shots.

I'm usually never acquainted with my subjects. Thanks for commenting.

Nice shots mate, you have done well with each one.

Nice series - colour and interest abound. I like the contrast between #1 and #5.

Thanks for sharing

Cheers

St. Kilda is very superficial. It takes some looking around for decent shots. I walked around for hours and the few characters I found interesting were found at the bus stop at the top of Acland st.

Did that guy face plant or what?

Thanks for commenting Bryan

Thanks Neil. I agree with you about Bryan's image. It's a great shot and looks like pure advert material

st kilda is that that bad? i thought it'd be easy to find characters there! i've never really been there to street shoot.

As for the diving guy, no face plant, he managed to recover and landed safely on pavement.

pure blond was pure luck!

thanks guys.

St. Kilda is usually pretty glamorous, maybe a little too glamorous for me. East St. Kilda on the other hand is choc full of 'characters'. And by 'characters' I mean deros, prostitutes & the generally insane. I would have thought you worked in an area full of characters in Abbotsford. The crowd may not be as thick but they are certainly there.
