Haven't posted in a while, bandwidth issues with Photobucket apparently!

Here are a selection of people candids taken on the streets of Amstrerdam.

Mostly done with the 70-200L f/4 (love this lens!), pp done in Lightroom to convert to black and white.

Gone for quite a high contrast b&w effect, no sure if it'll be to everyone's taste but as always, feedback is more than welcome. :blushing:

This is a selection of the interesting ones, I also have quite a few more dull examples. Tbh, it's a case of waiting around and keeping one's eyes open. As soon as you see the opportunity pull out the camera and get the shot.

Many thanks. :thumbup::blushing:

We have a very similar spiderman who dances on the streets downtown Montreal.

I'll have to snap a picture of him for comparison.

Nice shots

Amsterdam is a people watcher's dream. This bunch of photos looks just like when i went there. There are a lot of boring people, but the concentration of interesting people is very very high in amsterdam.
