Nikon "Street"

Hi,

after enjoying so many beautiful images I think it's time to show some images from me.
I really enjoy "street" images, but I feel not very comfortable doing them myself.

Both images done with D200 and the 18-200 AFS VR Nikon lens.

Greetings,
Andrea

Andrea, I really enjoyed these...especially the first. Wonderful catch!

Lots of thanks, Clay and Vivek.

And to Andrea: Welcome aboard :)
My favourite is your "Paris_tunnel_view".

The last one is wonderful, Steen.

Here's one from early this morning in Poipet, Cambodia, where I spent an hour wading in the mud.

S5 with 85mm f/1.8 @ f/2.5

Thanks Jorgen. Great capture of the rainy and muddy morning atmosphere in Poipet.
Are you there for business, holiday ... or for finding images :)


And yes, Roger, I think this lens must be my all time favourite, though it ain't that easy to focus with accuracy.
I so much hope that Nikon will soon release an AF-S 1.2/85 VR.
And please let it be a lens with magic rendering, not just an ok lens like e.g. the recent AF-S 1.4/50.
Did I say f/1.2 ?
F/1.4 max aperture will be ok provided it has excellent sharpness wide open :angel:
Do you think Nikon is capable of making such a prime with mojo :confused:
Do you think Nikon is interested in making primes with mojo ...

Thanks Steen, sometimes it's nice to get away for a few hours. I took the train up there yesterday afternoon, five hours for $1.25, third class only and great, cheap entertainment :thumbup: Then I spent the evening drinking local beer, smoking dirt cheap, local cigarettes at $0.40 a pack (yes, it's a bad habit, but in Poipet, it feels right) and watching people and motorbikes floating by in the mud. Up before sunrise at five, an hour of photos before I took one of the casino buses (those who take the gamblers back to Bangkok after a night of gambling on the border; casinos are not permitted in Thailand, but they are on the Cambodian side, before you formally enter Cambodia) back home, arriving here at 11 in the morning. Cheap fun :)

I also wish for a few new Nikkor primes. The 85/1.8 spends a lot of time on my S5, but life would be so much easier if it had VR. f/2.0 is ok for me, if it's small, light, sharp and has great bokeh. This is one of the reasons why I'm considering a K-7; the 77mm f/1.8 with in-camera IS would be perfect for my needs. No Fuji sensor in the Pentax though :(

Thanks a lot, Clay and Jorgen.
And Jorgen, not exactly 'Babylon' :D
We were in Turkey to visit some friends. Here's one more from the market.
