Originally posted by jgredline I need to learn how to shoot from the hip. Nice work, I especially like this one.
Start practise on your kids, back home, or someone else that you can move around. Expect to get a lot of half people, people with no heads etc. Digital makes it easier to practise this. I did learn to shoot from the hip on film and ouch...that was expensive to start with. But back then my most common street camera was the LX often with the FF-1 waist level finder...
People behaved as if they know for sure that you cannot shoot with a SLR without putting it to the eye so that guy there on the street fibbling with his camera hanging down by his waist he is not shooting me, he just has some problems with his camera. I should get around to scann some of my old street shots to post here. And to have my LX serviced to take it out again (got the sticky mirror about two years ago). That is also a very silent camera. Could stand on a street with a 28mm on the camera and wait until people walked into view on the the waist level finder screen...and there I got them.
