thnks for share. like it very much
 
A NYC fixture marching along in every parade.
I think he calls himself Lady Gaga but not sure since when.
Anyway this was at the Chinese New Year parade last Sunday.
He pushes a stroller with a poodle (colorful dyed fur) and also has a grey parrot.
He was hiding the bird under his costume because it was freezing but later he set the parrot on his head.

75/2 asph, ISO 640, 1/1500

Love this shot Klaus!
 
Hi Dave,
thanks for your comment.

Such a mass wedding you were shooting is not a kind of intimate setting anyway, so I guess no one bothered when you were photographing, or was this a job assignment?
A few shots are the obviously posed wedding couple portraits but I like the candids better.
 
Yesterday I went to Hampstead Heath again, with the 50mm Sonnar and a B+W yellow filter. Then, in Silver Efex Pro 2, I tried to edit some of the images to match the B&W film look I had in mind; and the fact that I also had with me the M6 loaded with Delta 100 probably helped (that roll is still in the camera, will be interesting to see how it turns out).

Hopefully I haven't overdone it. It seems dangerously easy to exaggerate things in Silver Efex Pro:

I've only processed a few of the photos that I've shot with the camera at this point, but I do like this snapshot of my wife at dinner on Friday night. Taken with the MS Optical Sonnetar 50mm at f/1.1.
