[Jim Kuo]

Thanks for looking.

Jim

 

[Dave Green]

Well spotted Jim

 

[Brian Moore]

Nice timing, Jim!

 

[Chris Dodkin]

that's brilliant Jim - did anyone spot you?

 

[Jim Kuo]

Thanks everyone for the kind words

I don't think I startled anyone, but I am not sure whether that is attributed to my stealth ninja move or no body really cared.

 

[Chris Dodkin]

I felt very self conscious again yesterday, shooting street - hadn't done any in a while, and I was out of the groove for the first hour or so

 

[Jim Kuo]

I set up my camera in a way that I can move quickly without having to linger longer than I need to, but I do try (more failure than success) to take my time to compose anyway.

One other thing I find helpful is that I look beyond or above the human subjects when I frame the shot. However, I think this technique is more for calming my nerve than making me less prominent, as my subjects would see a dude pointing a camera at them if they do look this way...

 

[Ralph Thornton]

Very good timing. Don't know how you guys manage to capture such challenging great images.

 

[Jim Kuo]

Thanks Ralph. Shoot a lot helps

 

[Glenn Clabo]

That's so interesting Jim. I have been trying to shoot street a little bit at a time. You are inspirational.

 

[Jim Kuo]

Thanks Glenn for your praise. Just go out and shoot a lot, we ought to get lucky sometimes

 

[Lesley Jones]

This isn't down to luck Jim. An excellent shot!

 

[Paul Lange]

Nicely spotted Jim, it seems you did get back into your groove. Could have done with a "wrinklies making-out warning" though.

 

[Pete Askew]

Love the split scene and the timing is perfect (as always!).
