Street-photography in Amsterdam

[mdw]

Hi all,

I went to Amsterdam today with a friend of mine, with the idea to practise street-photography and (at least for me) manual settings and RAW photography.
These are some of the results. What do you think of them?

Kind regards,

Roger

In the first one, the fellow stepping out of the frame is a distraction. Crop him. In the second, the right side is cluttered by the accoridianist and the beheaded, busomy mannequin. The one with the guitarist is somewhat better but still crowded. In the fourth, I am drawn to the license tags on the car as the image seems to lack a real center of interest. The last one is just empty for me.

#5 is my favorite

Try playing around with DOF...

Try shooting at a different time of day and watch your light. The first one is the most interesting to me, with the silhouette of the person sitting.
