    Gotta come back. The loop has been pretty busy recently. State street has a nice flow of people coming from different directions. Hasn’t been like that since pre pandemic.

    I was out in San Francisco last Saturday to attempt my first street photography and to document the protest regarding women's reproductive rights. I felt good and confident about my photos since it's crowded and photographs are welcome so I didn't fear awkward interactions but it turns out that my film isn't loaded properly in my camera and so, I didn't capture anything about the protest :(

    I actually thought the composition of the girl with the tree behind her was good. If the building was behind her it might blend in more so, although if she was against the sky (maybe in an area between the buildings) that would have been optimal?

  • @Nezzzy
    @Nezzzy Před 2 lety

    I'm kind of a noob at photography btw. Are these photos edited or is that what is coming straight from the Leica as everyone who uses the camera captures the vibe I want to get but I don't know whether that is the camera or the editing or a balance of both?

    • @whoschrischu
      @whoschrischu  Před 2 lety +1

      It’s straight out the cam / film stock. I used a Voigtlander lens (28mm Ultron ASPH). For film, the body does nothing for the image; it only provides user experience. I personally like the simplicity and design of the Leica, but it lacks in features where the Voigtlander Bessa series would fill in

    • @whateverjustposting
      @whateverjustposting Před 2 lety +2

      if youre new to photography i wouldnt get the leica or a bessa, as they can range from several hundred to several thousand dollars, not the mention the hundreds of dollars you will inevitably spend on film while youre still learning. get a cheap point and shoot or 35mm slr first, they can be found for less than $100 if you look.
