Re: Perth Streets 3.
I for one enjoy your photos. In enlightened countries photography can be classed as fine art.

First day back on the streets after a break of a month or so.

Some very interesting shots and views, nicely done Kung-fu Hillbilly.
Always "hope" but never "expect".

Re: Perth Streets 3.
I love the Fuji XT-4 I recently bought but wouldn't mind trying a different form of street photography, so I'm looking forward to picking up a Ricoh GR iii in the next few days. The Ricoh is arguably the king of street photography with an APS-C sized sensor in its palm-sized housing - it really is a compact camera that produces great image quality. Its small size will allow for more stealthy or discreet use, this hopefully resulting in more candid, personal, up close or natural captures of people. And, well, I guess sometimes we just like to have new toys.

The photos as I wrote to you in a PM are making me want to use the camera more as Vietnam (where I am now) has the mix of the old and the new history in it's buildings and people.
How do you go when photographing people? I remember in Beijing at a small side street market I went to take some photos and was quickly told in gestures "no photos". Not by any stall holders but by a couple of well dressed, compared to everyone else, blokes standing on a rsised section that overlooked everything. And they weren't smiling so I took that as the final word.
Another time again in a market in India I was watching a butcher cutting up chickens and again when he saw the camera he waved the meat cleaver around while telling me no photos. Again I erred on the side of caution.
So do you ever come across that when you are doing your street photography? That's only been two times as most people don't seem to care if they notice you taking their photo.
Hope the lockdown in Perth isn't too bad for you.
