Into the Blue Night

Took all these photos like I was using a twin lens camera (at a lower angle and some even close to the ground) but the difference is on my personal judgement on the angle as I didn't use the view finder or the LCD display. #5, I was a bit nervous as I needed to take this bus. Pretty fun though.

Very nice, taking photos from different angles other than the normal eye level always get more interesting photos because everyone is used to seeing everything at eye level.

Maybe I pretend I am using a twin lens 6x6 camera. A lady waiting to cross the road looked at me with a strange smile. #4, the bus driver wondered what I was doing when I put the camera pretty close to the ground. #1, I discovered LR filter has a color plate for changing the color gradually. Originally the upper part is so yellow white. I changed to deep blue and darkening it gradual. This busiest part of Paterson Street in Causeway Bay is then like a silent street. :)

I found if people find you funny, silly, entertaining or in strange pose. They are less likely be offended if they point the camera and take photo of them.

Interesting way to quiet down a busy street. :)

I think sometimes it depends on how it's used. Some may find it offensive or even illegal if accidentally some angle is shot at certain sensitive body parts.

You can try further create the feel of 6x6 by cropping the photos into square format. :)

I thought about that. BTW, 600D has been on sale here. It has more features than we have been told, e.g. digital zoom on HD movie and 5 special lens effect including fish eye...

Now if the 5D Mk III will be announced soon... Probably around August September.
