Nik Cannon has Flickr'd into life finally

[Nik Cannon]

Some may have remembered I promised to upload some images, well, that day has arrived, and I've got myself onto Flickr and uploaded a few shots, please feel free to peruse and critique!
Some shots are from a crappy Lomo, some from camera phone and older digital, some my Canon 600D and some my Panny LX3

Get some individual shots or sets up into the forum itself Nic, that's the best way to get folks form here to feedback ...

welcome back nik. still loving your name. had a quick look around your flickr page, some nice stuff. would love to see some of it showcased on the forum.

I just tried embedding some images in a new post, but it logged me out and I lost everything, so will try to do some later, as I should be working now!!!

 

[Pete Askew]

Welcome back again Nik. What a super portfolio. I love the one with the passer-by and the cone. Timed to perfection.

 

[Nik Cannon]

Thanks Pete, I'm really getting obsessed by photography now, and even surprising myself! I read somewhere that taking a good photo is a about finding a good location, and just waiting..... that's how the cone shot arrived, thankfully I wasn't hanging about too much and even managed to time the shot, even with shutter lag, just right!

Welcome back Nik - love the rain on window shot from the eye on Flickr - it's on my to do list!

Your technique of wait and shoot in spot on - one of the cast iron ways to shoot street

Others as well of course, but once you've melted into the street life, it's amazing what will happen right in front of you

Thanks Chris, I've always wanted to do some underwater photography, so after missing out on a Minolta yesterday morning by 50p because my browser crashed, I found a Canon A1 underwater camera for £10, so hopefully soon I will give it a whirl!
I must stop buying cameras! I have 2 Electro 35's to repair and 2 Konica Auto S2's as well needing some kind of surgery and leatherette facelift!

A1 - classic - I have one ready for testing this summer - great find, and cheap as chips for underwater gear!
