Today's camera for street shooting... I went digital

I had a lot of ideas about what camera to use for a street photography photowalk I was supposed to facilitate today. In the end though, I decided on shooting digital and settled on using a Nikon 1 V1 with a fixed focus Gizmon 17mm F16 c-mount lens with a c-mount to Nikon 1 lens adapter.   The fun part of the lens is the optics is from Fuji Quicksnap single-use cameras. According to Gizmon, the lenses are put back to back to make the shoot wider than a single lens which I believe is a 32mm F10.   ...and the results...   None of them tell a story but it was fun to get out and give it a try. I like the way the colours turned out. Composition and subject were not much. But I'm okay with that.
