Man's Day 2: Chinese Street Portraits

Continuing the Man's Day series. Walking around the streets drinking beer is very conducive to street photography. I don't know why, but almost everybody I came across was very receptive to having their photograph taken. Maybe its the extra smiles that come with the consumption of beer. I can only recall one person who actually ran away from me as I pointed the camera in their direction. In conditions like this, give me a fast prime lens, and I'm good to go. In this case, its the Sigma 30mm 1.4 (50mm equivalent on my camera) It's just perfect for low light night shooting. Here are a few portraits from the night. All are straight from the camera, unprocessed:

Definitely my favorite of the night:

Father & Daughter (you'll never get turned down by this combo):

The first "men" of the night:

Extremely cute older woman:

Peace Signs:

Security. These guys were eying us for a while, so decided to engage them:

"NO! NO! What does this mean?"

Another Father/Daughter combo:

She's obviously a bit more shy than he is:

And to finish off the night, a cute bbq girl:
