I shot this as a passenger in a friend's vehicle while traffic was stopped. One of the reason I got an A80 was to try street photography and seems to be doing the job quite well for me. This photo is not tack sharp so is a bit rough but "getting the shot is better than not getting it." Please critique. Thanks.
Hello Barmy,

I agree with the relative lack of contrast and the fact that the picture isn't tack sharp but other than that I like it a lot. Ultimately, the fact that the picture isnt perfectly sharp works well with the significant steam.

The picture is really really moody and I like your framing. It almost look unreal and somewhat eerie despite the guy smilling and posing in the background.

regards

Seb
