Thanks, Dave.
I was pretty pleased with the results, considering it was my first
attempt at photography of that type.
Of course, it doesn't hold a candle to Danny Santos's work, which I've
been smitten with since I first discovered it on one of those "funny and
interesting" type link aggregation sites.

I think you did a fine job with it. I like the crop and the OOF person
to the right.
It works quite well

Hi all,
Went to a local BBQ festival yesterday and took some snapshots. I saw this
young lady standing in line at one of the booths and was thought I'd try my
hand at street portraiture along the lines of Danny Santos. It's clearly
not up to his standards, but I thought it wasn't too shabby as a first
attempt. She was a much more interesting looking girl than the photo
indicates. As the title indicates, she had alabaster skin and coal black
hair, along with bright blue eyes. She didn't resist at all when I asked.
She actually seemed pleased, if a little embarrassed.

K-x, DAL 50-200mm, Aperture Priority, f/4.5, ISO 800, 1/60 sec.
Up until now, I've been extremely hesitant about just walking up to people
and asking them if I can photograph them. Turns out, people are much more
willing than I ever would've believed.
Comments, critiques, and cash gifts welcome.
Thanks,
Walt
