I really like this set and think that you have captured VM's influence.

I see more Walker Evans than VM.

VM's work was a lot more spontaneous.

Googling Walker Evans now. Thanks for the feedback.

Also check out August Sander, Danny Lyon (his portraits like Sparky and Cowboy) Bruce Davidson especially East 100th Street and Dorothea Lange.

I went out today to try again. I gotta tell you its tough. I had an old Sony F828 that would be perfect for this type of shots. Wish I still had it.

Curious why the Sony F828 would be perfect?

In theory I should say - One of my first cameras, which I was very fond of. The lens swiveled upward to allow viewing the screen downwards while still having all controls in hand as if it were standard orientation so ergonomics were great. It was a great design. Tons of CA though.

The best street camera I have used is Leica M and I've tried a lot of cameras. Rangefinders and manual focus lenses are really intuitive for street. No auto focus in the world is faster than using the DoF scales and being pre focused.

Not really seeing too much VM in these, but that's just me. Not feeling the presentation of the images. I personally rather see a roll of images rather then a inconsistent collage.

In terms of camera. SP is one of those genre where the tool is only of importance as you want it to be. The main thing is your comfortable and confident with what you're shooting with. SP is one of the least gear limited genre out there.

Particularly partial to the juxtaposition of expressions in #2.
