Street Photography: Film vs Digital

In general, there’re two approaches available for the street photographer who uses both digital and film cameras.

With a digital camera, you could take multiple shots of the same scene.

You could take a shot that you think might not work but do it just to see what happens.

In other words, you could AFFORD to experiment with a digital camera.

With a film camera, you’d tend to be more circumspect.

This means that film photography reveals your competency.

After all, even if you could afford it, a wasted shot is wasted film.

I was in the tube when I saw him.

Very elegant, I thought.

No one noticed.

My camera’s shutter click was inaudible in the tube.

Do I dare take another shot?

OK – last one.

At the Gloucester Road Station… or was it South Kensington?

I was in London for a few days for a conference and of course, I brought my cameras along.

This was taken along Exhibition Road.

Here’re some shots in the museums along the road.

At Natural History Museum:

Roar.

Funny juxtaposition.

The above was at the Science Museum.

There’s a line of tension marked by the positions of the people.

At the Victoria and Albert Museum.

I think it looks better in monochome.
