Thanks it ranges between f1.4 to f2.5, depending on the available light

It's been a while since I've been out shooting street As soon as I got back to the streets, I'm immediately reminded of how hard it is to capture good shots. I was lucky to get this one, capturing her in the light right in the middle of the crowd.

i personally think those lighted faces would have bigger impact if u'd gone in closer although that is not always possible. I am not suggesting using a zoom though(just me).

I hear you actually, my first approach that day were all closer shots with strong contrast on their faces due to the light... but after a series of shots, I realized they were just mostly portraits which I already had a lot of, so I decided to step back and include more of the people surrounding them so you'll see the highlighted subject amidst the busy crowd which also emphasizes the darkness around them. Cropping would've been a quick fix, but yeah, I intentionally stepped back on these shots That's just me, though.

totally love this photo. for a moment i even when, "huhh! was this like a studio setup?"

loved the way you made her stood out in the crowd with the heavenly ray of light just on her.

Thank, bro As for your question, you can't be sued as long as the photos were taken in a public location, and the subjects were not captured in a compromising position.

it's seem most of your shots were taken in front of lucky plaza ?

Yup, you're correct =) Most of my recent shots were taken there.

Thanks, bro sure thing, just approach me. Actually I take the shots in RAW format, and just convert it to B&W in Lightroom.
