Flower Fields Floral

Another one of the tourist pics. It's so cool that some of the folks really get in the mood with their colorful floral prints. The Fields are a great place to practice street photography techniques, and one that I haven't used much is shooting from the hip. I tried it here and it worked out OK. Other attempts that day didn't- but this is a case where practice makes perfect. So will be back to give it another try.

If you look in the background you will see a Canon popup. They were renting cameras for folks to use on their visit. A full service tourist destination for sure.

It's been years since I tried that technique. Very nice capture from the hip! The visitors certainly are colorful! V

A wonderful candid shot from the hip, I do this often too.

Very nicely capture of the people who visit the flower fields. The woman in the floral skirt really stands out. Shooting from the hip does provide an interesting perspective. Well done with this image.

I think the combination of the point of view with her very serious expression along with her outfit makes a really unforgettable image!

Great candid. I too like how people dress to fit in with the flowers.
