My father tried to teach me how to do the settings to get what I wanted when I was younger (camera with film) but when I got the images back from the lab I had no idea what settings I had had. I never got it. Digital cameras are a blessing.

My gallery for color street photography looks like I asked 20 people to send in their favorite shots for the Open Category. Consistency in street photography is something that I'm working on, but every now and then I would like a little more co-operation from the sun. I should add to my tech notes "no wonder I like black and white photography, artificial light and the comforts of a studio." Here is a link to Trent Parke's photography. http://www.in-public.com/TrentParke/gallery/71 @Désirée. The photographs are taken in color (digital) and converted in the computer. So many choices available with a computer. It's a low cost way to experiment and learn from your mistakes and the occasional triumphs. I don't miss working in the darkroom, or depending on labs that close for 6 weeks at Christmas but still use film occasionally and scan it. Thanks for the comments.

It gave me new insights. It made me wonder - do you takes all your images in color and convert them to black & white in the computer? Your tech notes were interesting. It gave me new insights.

It made me wonder – do you takes all your images in color and convert them to black & white in the computer?

I admire street shooters that can make color work for them on a consistent basis, but I feel that B&W works better for my more consistently. Color on the streets rarly adds to the story and usually distracts. Maybe I am just taking the easy route. But, then again B&W creates it's own set of difficulties to deal with.
