I'll start this off with a few photos I took last week in Downtown Indianapolis, IN. My gear: Olympus OMD E-M5, Panasonic G 14mm f/2.5 ASPH. I use Pre Focus Hyper-Focal DOF, Touch Screen Trigger at waist level, mainly. I also like what I call "Automatic Manual Mode" IE: Manual Mode with Auto ISO.
I have a short article on "Alex Coghe, Street Photographer" Blog that explains it a bit more..although, it is self-explained by itself.
But, Alex's Blog is really a good... and dedicated to Street Photography!

I love me some ISO priority mode too :) Use it all the time now on all camera's, not looking forward to the day one of them might not have it.... And thanks for the tips regarding settings, I'll give them a go next time I go out I think. Anyways, here's some of mine, nothing spectacular just doing the rounds and getting used to the camera.

The best part of weddings is always the bridesmaids!

Those B/W shots look every bit as good as the stuff I've seen from the Leica M Monochrom.

(without all the pretentiousness and bravado) :)

I need advice or help on how to get my down loaded pictures to look a decent size like those that I see here. Mine always look quite small. What do I wrong when posting. I would appreciate any help.

I use 800pix on the long side for forums.
If you have a Flickr account, upload a file that's 2000pix on the long side, and pick "Share" and the BBC code for the closest to 800pix on the long side.

I make 2000pix long side Thumbnails. with a small border and my name on it with FastStone Resizer/Viewer. Very easy.

12mm f.4.5 @1/6 sec.

That's a really lovely photo! Love how the b/w tones came out.
 
I like the OM-D for street, even if I am not very good at street...
