 Kicked myself because I didn't know about the demo was happening in front of where I work until an hour or so before, so only had the P&S with me and not the 20D. Bit of a challenge in the evening light and tripping over people with all these digital SLR's - Will you people just get out of us poor P&S-ers way :-) Seriously, I have never been somewhere where all the people in the demo had cameras (still and video) and more SLR's then I have seen in one place.

I had a lot of fun actually, having to get very close which is against my normal tele nature - always a good thing to force something different. I had an outtake that I thought was a better shot but it was all blury because there was just not enough light - too bad.

Post: Curves, Auto-Contrast, Resize (couple of times) and save for web.

I'm not much for receiving or giving comments, but since Candids are
near and dear to my heart, I have decided to give comment on every entry
in this challenge.

The man's face looks like it has some nice character to it, but unfortunately this shot is way too out of focus to tell. It's just an ok candid for me. It has a story to it, and does spark some interest, but the photo needed some serious work in USM and HMS. It's a 4 from me.
