Escaping the Clutches

I have heard it say that there are two kinds of street photographers: hunters and fishers.
- Hunters will follow people around and photograph them as they go
- Fishers will sit at one spot that has a great context and wait for an opportune moment to take an image.

In this case I was acting in the latter role.  As luck would have it from the comfort of a conveniently-placed cafe!
Hand-held, available light, Av, spot metering and spot focus, both using back buttons.

I love the timing of this image! The texture of the hand on the wall is really cool too. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you for your kind words!  It's not a genre in which I normally engage, but it was fun and fairly painless, considering I could wait for the right moment with a beverage, in the shade!

I was going to include the R6 in the list of associated products, but oddly it's not available - only the MKII version.

It seems the R6 is not listed on the Canon site. I updated your post referencing the kit as it is listed on the site 🙂 Thanks for associating products, I think this is a really cool feature.

Thank you.  Absolutely agree, I pretty much always put the gear and settings down as a matter of course as a reference for others.
