i started traveling full time about a year ago, and during my travels i've really started to enjoy travel portraiture.
when i'm moving from place to place, i find myself more interested in the people than the 'touristy' sights.
i've started a site for my travel portraits. so far there are a lot, but later i'll cut it down to the best photos only.
//ph.otograph.me
i know they're not all stunners, but there are a few shots i really like.
as a result of this change in my photography, i've really started to pay closer attention to the portraits of people like steve mccurry. i also bought myself an 85mm lens, which virtually lives on my camera now.
is anyone else into portraiture?
cheers
david

Very cool. I'm starting to be the same way. Last summer I was in Japan and in Osaka there is a great area to people watch and try to take pictures of the young people and how they dress up.

some nice shots mate. at the moment i don't have the facilities to do a lot of processing ... so my portraits are mostly simple edits. i like some of the post- work you've done on yours.
that site of mine is going to have well over a thousand portraits by the time i'm done. i'll delete the worst ones, but the overall spread will still be a huge amount.
i'm thinking, when i finish traveling, to try and arrange a portrait exhibition ... could be fun!
