Street Photography is a new one for me. I have done people, animals, objects, and buildings. However, trying to get images of the streets during the day or night was a much harder task than I originally thought.

I wanted to give it a go and see what happened. We had recently been in Vegas to see the Mountain West College basketball game (by the way, it was a good tournament). A photo of the main court is below.

I have to say some of the shots came out really good, and others I felt could have been better, but it was my second and third attempt. Here are some of my shots that I captured while we were walking to strip in Vegas.

Some of them I felt were better in black and white than leaving it in the original color images. However, I found some pictures I liked and kept them in their original settings. Other than adjusting their exposure, and details.

I kept the settings consistent. My Shutter speed was kept around 1/100, my aperture hovered between f8 to f f10, and my ISOs were adjusted between 3200 and 6400. I did raise it up to 10000. That one was wild. When I entered Adobe Bridge, I had to change the luminance and raise it to around 75-80. That allowed me to eliminate the noise in the image from the high ISO settings.

It’s still a work in progress, especially since it happens at night. I do have some that I took in Burbank a couple of months ago. They came out a little better, but it did help that the shots were taken during the day.
