Nice captures, both. The depth of field and color provides a sparkling sense of place. Looks like a charming city to spend time in.

.....I rarely use color, am quite unconfortable with it, but like other people color street shots alot.

always heard that velvia is good for landsscape but you show us that it works fine including people

colorshots are very difficult for marketshots which are done beneath the big umbrellas.

 

This color from above irritates the white balance. But this is street....

I always have some problems with the color correction of Scans (from slides or negatives) in the shadows. Mostly they tend to blue (negatives) or green (slides) with my Minolta Scan Elite II.

Here is a variation, with a less red face.

 

Thanks for your comments,

The second shot, in particular, is a solid winner. Good catch of interaction between the two people, nice background, light and color.

I prefer the second one too, since the girl, as the only sharp object, pops out among the unsharp back- and foreground, which adds a 3D effect. Very well done.

 

Best regards

Hi,

 

thanks for your comments, the first one was taken with summicron 35 asph, the second one with summilux 75 wide open.
