    Default People in China, in colour

    When I photography people on the street I tend to go for a high contrast vignetted BW look. Not everyone's taste but hey that's what floats my boat at the moment

    Having said that, there are always a few that seem to work better in colour. Here are a few from the last couple of weeks, hope you enjoy them!

    This was taken with one of my favourie bargain bucket acquisitions, a 100mm f2 aperture-less night vision lens with ridiculous field curvature. I think of it as my telephoto lensbaby. I went for some retro colours in PP on this one (but no added blur, that's all the mad lens)
