Lark Street Photo Shoot

Danny and Al, Martial Artists

 

Kee, Body Builder

These were taken today with my Nikon D200 and the standard 18-105mm Nikkor lens.  Shot in color, these portraits were then converted to Black and White using Topaz Adjust.  I started with the original Charcoal setting and did a lot of tweaking to get this result, similar to "Charles" in an earlier post.   My technique is to approach in a very friendly way, complement, make a little conversation and with permission, get their street portrait.

Enjoy, Jeff
