The Roman Legionary - Italian Day On Commercial Drive 8390e
Modern people look cool in old costumes.
Do you think so?
This is just repost of an old picture at Italian Day in 2012.
Wish you a great weekend!
Thanks for all the comments on my portrait pictures.
I have to agree that it is much easier to get an appealing people portrait when you have the eye contact with your subject. I think it is a good advice to beginner (like me) to shoot people when you have eye contact.
To get a good people portrait without eye contact is a more challenging task and you need to create a good setting and make it story telling.
This is actually a candid shot I took in Commercial Drive years ago. The young man had eye contact with me when I clicked the shutter. It looks much like a posed portrait!
Happy Wednesday!
This is just repost of an archive picture.
The Euro 2012 was kicked off and a lot is going on for Italy and so does Commercial Drive, our Little Italy community.
We have Italian Day on The Drive on Sunday. I go to Commercial Drive to join the crowd and take some candid shots while people are busy eating, shopping and watching the performances.
This is the handsome Roman legionary (not a gladiator as corrected by my Flickr friend Morton, thank you Morton!) on Commercial Drive.
Oh I did not carry my tripod this time but only my Fuji S3 with the 85mm fixed lens. :o)
Have a great week coming!!
