Shoot with Fujifilm XE5-X100v lens XF23f2,XF35f2

I’ve been shooting for years but always stuck to architecture and nature because I’m a bit uncomfortable pointing a camera at strangers (doesn’t help that I’m 6’3” and feel like I stick out). I decided I wanted to push myself to shoot some candid moments and scenes with strangers in them, which is the work I’ve always wanted to make.

These are from an evening walk around my neighborhood in Portland, OR. I’m trying to focus on catching real moments and using the environment to frame people. Running Mastin Labs Portra preset for the Lightroom edit.

Would love some feedback on the candid shots. Where am I getting it right, where am I missing, and how do you all get more comfortable shooting people in public?

from a couple of hours ago, more work here: https://instagram.com/offgramercy

I spent a few days in India and tried to capture both (unique and amazing) places.

A mix of vintage Zuiko lenses and the 28mm and 40mm SE were used for these.

I'd appreciate any feedback you might have.

Mix of street / travel photography

Took the M10 out recently to catch some of the early summer light. I’ve always felt that just uploading bare digital files to social media makes them feel a bit disposable.

Lately, I've been obsessed with the idea of presentation—giving digital shots the breathing room and aesthetic of a physical photobook or an analog Zine. I feel like the layout forces you to look at the image differently.

P.S. Since people usually ask about the borders in photography subs: doing this manually in Photoshop was killing my workflow, so I actually coded a little iOS app called Stamio to automate these Zine/Film layouts with my EXIF data. Just putting it out there if anyone is into this kind of aesthetic!

Would love to hear your thoughts on these street moments!

Which image should I put into the local camera club street photography competition tomorrow?
