Capture a Stranger

This happy guy was shot on The Tail of the Dragon

This shot was taken at a park in NYC while participating in one of the NYC Gatherings. It is, by far, my fav shot of a stranger...

That is a really nice capture....The black and white makes it superb in my opinion.

This is not really a stranger...She is however a stranger to you folks so I guess it counts... :) This is my daughter after a day hiking and she running through the water fall....

Here are a couple of folks messing up my picture...Don't you just hate when people walk in front of your shot...Although, these folks may have just helped this one...

Hi Everyone.....New to photography...I just purchased a Nikon D80 with the 18-55 and 55-200vr lense...and a 50mmf1.8.......THANK YOU this sight is great to view pictures and learn! I have one question....this is a Great Thread....I am assuming if there were no releases signed you can not sell these photos...right? So these are just for the joy of it and to possibly and to your websites or portfolios? Thanks for the help!

Nice captures Javier. I am impressed.

Thanks Greg!

This beautiful lady was looking down and as i took the picture she looked up. Im glad a post like this came up I'v had this picture for like 8 months.

jgredline - you have some ~really~ good stuff posted in here. I'm new - just registered yesterday and haven't posted anything at all (this is actually my first post). I really like the images of the women at the tar pit (?), the 2nd one in particular. Was the plexi-glass just ~really~ clean? You were able to place lens right against it? Used a polarizing filter? Really nice...

Also - on the opposite end of no reflections are the images of the women in (a museum?) where the reflections of them ARE the image per the thread.

Again - really nice work. ;)

Welcome to the forum...You will find that this is an extremely great place with a bunch of great folks...I look forward to seeing your images...To be perfectly honest, I did not even know I captured that lady in the image...I was actually shooting the skeleton of the bird..The lady was a bonus...I cropped out the skeleton and kept the lady....Sometimes, I get lucky.

Thanks Javier...
