So today I spent a whole day in the Mission District in San Francisco to help my parents at their shop.  But it wasn't too busy so I stood outside the shop just taking random pics of the diverse crowd that walks Mission St.

Like I said, very diverse crowd.  You get old folks, homeless folks, corporate dudes, joggers, dog walkers, dudes struggling to make money, small business owners of all cultures, young and older hipsters, homosexuals, entertainers.  Its crazy all the things you see just standing there.

14 & Mission...Use to take that bus all the time. I live in upper mission/daly city borderline area...You near there JawKneeC?
 
same here. riordan class of 95 and used to take the 14 to top of hill to catch the 20C home.

Question...I've been shootin with a 20D for years now and have been very pleased with the results. I'm looking to upgrade and start tryin to make a little money off of photo shoots. I've been saving up for a new camera and am about to make a purchace. Just wanted opinions on weather I should get a 7D body or a T2i and spend the extra money on lenses.

^^ What are the reactions of the people when you are taking those pictures? Do they get angry, I can see why maybe the handicapped guy on the bus might have felt a little uncomfortable.

I love the shots, I feel like I was there with you throughout the day
