Hi Ben, I like the photos - esp the candid shots! I think you've done a good job handling the noise, the silhouette works really nicely. Next time you take a shot of the decks, try getting a few inches lower and focus on the edge of the turntable platter or a fader on the mixer -...

Are you sure he wasn't just a homeless guy getting out of the cold? ;) Not sure what he's meant for, but I like the way he's looking at you. Have you tried this in B+W? Might draw people to his eyes easier.

Definitely the vivid, perhaps with a little bit more DoF next time?

Hi! I've had my 6d for a couple of weeks and it's good. The focus points are reliable and it feels much better than the focus system on a 5d2. I'd say that indoors in low light the outer focus points are very usable (even with a single incandescent bulb in the corner of the room) - I...

Slightly too much contrast on her for me, I'd like to be able to see more of her tone and as everyone has pointed out - feet! I'd probably crop this just above the knee and tighten it in on her a bit at the sides too so we have less dead space at the sides of her, it'll still give the...

Bonjorno! Milan is a nice city to visit, I was there in summer and it was in the mid 30s seemingly all the time (including at night), which was difficult for shooting good photographs. I did find that the city is overall quite industrial and that the 'city centre' for tourists (Duomo...
