Hey, is he giving me the stink-eye? Or am I just paranoid?

Stink eye again? What'm I? Conspicuous or something? :D

At last, no stink-eye. Just the High-Hat! :rofl

    I think you should get closer and try the same shots. That way we'll know for certain whether the ol' "stink eye" was really meant for you.

    Also practice framing lower. Not so much sky, more people.

    Thanks. I'm 6'3", and very un-inconspicuous, so getting lower in fast moving crowds doesn't always work, but I'll try. mwink.gif

    I'm a six-foot middle aged white gal with blonde hair wandering around China. I sorta stick out too. :giggle

    But, what I meant is compose with a lower angle in your framing. It's a natural instinct to point more forward. No need to go to one knee, just point down slightly more. There's a lot of wasted space at the tops of the frame.

    Lol!
    The use of a camera is similar to that of a knife. You can use it to peel potatoes, or carve a flute. ~ E. Kahlmeyer
    ... I'm still peeling potatoes.
