Unlike some who prefers interacting with their subjects, I prefer my subjects &#8216;raw&#8217;. This means I wanna capture them in the most natural situations without them smiling for the camera. Most photos from this set were taken using the Fujifilm X10 as I was giving it a test run on the streets. I usually love getting close to the people and thus shooting wide most of the time. The face detection feature does help a little too.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Following my earlier set of photos from the street (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.fuzzyeyeballs.com\/blog\/?p=5173\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>), here are more of them &#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fuzzyeyeballs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/gallery\/streets-of-hk-2011\/7.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Some friends asked if I find the X10 a better option for street photography (the camera being black is less attention grabbing) compared to the X100. Honestly &#8230; I don&#8217;t find any difference. If I have to pick one &#8230; it will still be the X100 as the weight makes it feel better when shooting with one hand. The lighter X10 somehow feels &#8216;weird&#8217; when shooting with one hand &#8230; probably because it is lighter and is short of the Thumbs Up grip I have on the X100.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fuzzyeyeballs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/gallery\/streets-of-hk-2011\/2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I got some messages about an hour ago from a friend who is on vacation in Hong Kong right now &#8230; asking me directions to some places. Well &#8230; I suck at directions but I guess he managed to track down the restaurant. Anyway &#8230; his messages made me wish I were still there &#8230; slacking &#8230; eating &#8230; drinking &#8230; and doing nothing. \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fuzzyeyeballs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/gallery\/streets-of-hk-2011\/8.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fuzzyeyeballs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/gallery\/streets-of-hk-2011\/14.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"399\" \/><\/p>ngg_shortcode_0_placeholder","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of my favorite past time when on vacations is to wander around on the streets taking random snapshots of people.
