K, let's try one just to see whether I am doing this correctly.

Always a story with me. I am a bit of a blabbermouth. Just ignore it if it gets on your nerves.
I hope you will look at the images though. When I feel ready I will move over to the critique board.

I am unsure about the spelling of this young woman's name. I usually ask but I neglected to do so today.
It was bloody cold out, too cold to be busking.
I don't want to hear about youth unemployment and homelessness. I see it all around me every day.

I have a full 'record' style shot but I believe the tighter shot here is more effective. Some would not care for her hand being cut off, but I believe that as long as there is sufficient info on an edge it's usually okay.

I will be heading in new directions shortly. For now I am still shooting digi in colour and converting to B&W when I want it. Can't wait to get going with some film and one or two of the old rangefinders I have grabbed. Will be going with some experimental processing here and there as well.

I want edgy, but we'll see what is what when I get there.

I like the snow flying past her. That tells a story in it's own right ... she's out there braving a cold day to play. Why? I don't know. The tight crop doesn't allow me to figure that out.
