These shots are so beautiful. Do you change the color through the camera or on a computer?

I'm about to play around with our Kodak EasyShare V550 (5 megapixels) and see if I could adjust the colors.

it depends if i shoot raw or jpeg. the point and shoot has all enhancements done in camera i rarely edit those.. with our nikon dslrs we shoot raw usually and everything is done later on in the computer

as far as getting the colors to pop that depends alot on getting the correct exposure and even going a little darker... setting the camera to a vivid setting and getting to much exposure still leaves a washed out look.

Wondeful pics you have a knack for street photography. I like touring NYC like a tourist myself although I've spent most of my life here. It can be so easy to take it for granted, but it really is an incredible city.

Great photos, thank you for sharing.

I think you should print and frame the hot-dog cart scene.

And who is the guy with those girls? Is he competing with the Naked Cowboy?
