Bugis Street... Faces in the Crowd

[darrelltan]

ISO1600 and still so sharp?

Damn, which camera are you using?

Good shots brother, try Little India and Clarke Quay next time.
I'll try to think for you new places

Thanks for sharing BananaDiver...

Like the color tone and the way you process it.
But I have some comments....

Most of the pix is shots at the same spot and the only different is position.
(can see most of the pix is at the Sex toy Shop)
the there too many ppl around it and very distracting..
felt you should zoom (more forward) in a little.

I also notice most of the pix you shot at portrait, I felt some pix will look good in landscape

I understand there are too many ppl and is not easy to shot.
Hope you dont mind my C&C....

Thanks for commenting... i will try that next time... most of the time i was just catching a drink and shooting with one hand... and i was just passing by... reason for some spot is because it's the only place i can stand without obstructing crowd traffic while catching a drink... will try something different next time...

Hi Darrel... i know that he shoots in orchard... just that it's not my cup of tea to shoot there yet... this series is taken when i happen to pass by the place to my favorite hunting ground... just felt that bugis street is more lively to me and the crowd is not so spread out like in orchard... cheers... maybe i will go shoot in orchard someday... thanks for the idea...

Set your camera to Spot Metering. See if this helps.

yah... meter at focus point....
Aperture priority mode at F2.8... ISO 1600 for most of the shots...

best regards

Oh...
That's why you get such nicely exposed shots..

Before you mention, I was wondering how did you get such nicely exposed shots.
