What inspires you to shoot street /p/?
For me I'm always interested in shooting couples being sweet like holding each other's hand. I dream of being a pro and shooting engagement photos but I suck and I don't have money for gear.
Anyway >tfw no gf to cuddle with on the way home
>tfw shooting street somehow eases the pain of not having a qt3.14 gf
I only use public transportation, so I'll often encounter something that looks at least semi-interesting on my commutes that take me through the city center. Mostly people doing stuff, like busking, carrying too much or weird stuff, dozing off in odd places... Also interesting objects like drawings on walls and stuff, broken things...
>tfw gf originally suggested I try street when I'd just started to take pictures
>tfw supportive photog gf

I rarely commute and use my car all the time. Whenever I do street I use a film slr so when it gets stolen its okay as compared to using my dslr or phone. There are a lot of thieves nowadays in this city especially since it is almost Christmas.
I hope I have a supportive gf like you man. I'll never get tired of taking iur pictures together like we are in our engagement shoot. Whenever I see couples on the street I feel a bit if loneliness.
I like cities and walking around and I just happen to have my camera with me often and feel compelled to shoot. Also its fun.
That's it really.
Sometimes I do come across some tenderness amongst strangers, lovers and family in public and I dont know its great when that happens. yea OP.
Cause it's a fun and interesting way to take pictures. Capturing people going about their day to day business. Doing what they always do with out any idea you are taking their photo.

Is that film?
I hate smartphones, so I take pictures of people glued to them.

if someone tried to steal my film slr i'd beat them with it
and then probably take a picture, because it still works

>filmfags thinking grain is awesome
A modern digital camera can already take ISO 12800 without noticeable noise. Go back to 1960s.
>>2719695
>Go back to 1960s.
oh man if only
>no faggy modern "ironic" hipster kids and lezbo skrillex cuts in the streets
>no tacky advertisement flooding even under the smallest rocks in the street
>no post 9/11
>no hordes of ugly fucks and manchildren fighting with their lives for being "unique"
>no mixed and disgusting architechture. no gentrification.
>proper men and women
today you go out and it screams back at you "ITS 2015! COME ON", street is tainted irreparably.
>ib4 le wrong generashun XD
>>2719695
Can't go back to 1960's dumass. But its funny how /peetards/ think film grain and noise are the same. At least I go out and shoot a lot and actually post a photo every time I post on here, rather than try to put others down.

can one check the shutter count of canon 700d without plugging it to the computer etc? I will be buying an used camera in an hour and wonder if the seller is trustworthy when he said it has only 2k clicks
>>2719714
wrong thread.....I am sorry familia
>>2719714
Download the app 'DSLR controller' for android, connect your devices via wifi (700D and Phone) or cable and go to the 'camera information' section. There it'll show the shutter count.

Yeah, you just have to deal with hippie faggots instead.
>>2718886
I like this. Reminds me of my ex gf when we would ride the train.
Love is a strange bird, it'll up and walk out on you.
I will smash your face with a hammer
>>2719702
Now is always now. Get over it, scrub.
>being unable to appreciate the modern world's aesthetics
>>2719695
where did he say the grain was awesome or not? all he was doing was pointing out that you thought it was noise, and were wrong.
>>2719702
you sound fat and ugly
>>2719790
Holy fuck, I would not even have been able to deal with this bullshit.
>>2719775
Fuck. Yeah I should stop doing that shit.
>>2719636
yea, kodak tri-x
..
>>2720101
It's good.
I wish I bought more tri-x. I only bought two last time in Hong Kong. The tri-x costs almost twice here.
>>2720125
Oh man, HK prices for anything are amazing arent they
>>2720156
Yeah. I got two t-max as well. But a friend told me they are harder to develop.
>>2719707
What in the.... Is that a grown woman or a small child with ginormous tits?
Hahahaha
