Seattle City Portraits with Nikon 50mm f/1.8

Decided today was a good day to go find my homeless friend Barry who I have not seen for awhile. Though I never found him in his usual location, I ran across some other people who were kind enough to let me take their photos today.

If you are on the waterfront in Seattle, make sure you stop by the John T. Williams Memorial Totem Pole Project.

I had the opportunity to talk to some street musicians who play in front of the Starbucks on 1st and Pike. Really nice people and they were thankful for me asking permission to take their photos before I did. Seems some photographers will get right in their face with a camera , take a quick snap and then move on. A better option is to ask permission, observe them for awhile and then start taking photos when they feel relaxed with you being there.
