You mean candids?

They are simply superb work!

Yeah, candid! (they call them spontanous portraits over at DA :P ).

Thanks a lot! really glad you liked them!

I like them. Candid or "unposed" portraiture is my favourite style of photography.

I'm curious about the colouration in 6 & 7. Is that produced by some kind of post-processing effect? In particular number 7 reminds me a bit of when I used to use film in the late 90s, the look of Fuji's 1600 ISO colour film was a bit similar.

First two don't do much for me but I like the rest.

#1 Is very good. I spent a lot of time on that image.

#2 Not doing much for me. The white blobs might be what's killing it for me.

#8 My second favorite. I like the expression, color and retreating depth of field.

The colors are the courtesy of my Minolta Rokkor 58 1.2 I think. I just desaturate them a bit, beacause it gets a bit intense at 0 saturation! So I end up at about -20-30 somewhere (lightroom).


Thanks for your comments everyone! I really appreciate it!
