I've seen a Chinese student, ......q and he got away with laughters... :-) It's a matter of feeling as said Gary...!
Point duly noted.

A few more... Of more silent persons... :-)

You can think... And smile at the same time :-)

Or show your best profile... :-)

Beyond the globally very high level of your photography (great eye, perfect timing, positive interaction with people around you...), what strikes me is how well you deal with high contrast scenes, and how good looking these sunny days are. I am sure we all know how hard it is.

Merci...! The captor of the D3x is quite extraordinary in that matter of contrasts... The only trouble is to stay at very low ISO's ! Of course I play with curves too... :-)

Flash wise, it's just as simple as that... :-) Apart that with a D3x, a SB 900 and a 105mm f/2.8 VR, I feel like Weegee and his flash bulbs on his Speed Graphic camera...


I had a Busch Pressman once and combined it with a Metz 60 something plus battery package. Very cool setup
but 5€ per click....

Ha... 4x5 films gets you great and detailed pictures, but, as you say, one must be either rich or shoot with great care :-) Sped graphics and Busch Pressman can be bought "almost" new at the Bièvres Photo Fair near Paris, every year in the first WE of June. People gather form all over Europe  and even from Japan... :-)

ooohhhh ... la-la, la-la, la-la.

Seriously, these are quite nice. As with your other images, I detect that your shooting style has a disarming charm.   ;)

I appreciate that these are not shot from the hip.

Yes, and you disarm the subject into a smile with your charm.
