Street Photography

By admin | Published 1 February 2008

Blink and you have missed a handful.

If you watch a person carefully for any amount of time you can deduct whether they are happy, sad, paranoid, nervous and a slew of other emotions. What you won’t see is the many emotions and expressions in between. A person eating a hamburger looks like a person eating a hamburger. However, take a dozen pictures of that person and you will see a dozen unique expressions you would never have expected.

The above best explains in one paragraph why I love street photography. You discover people you don’t know in ways that no one else sees.

    True enough. I love unguarded moments where the subject does not know his / her photos are being taken. It captures the essence of the moment. No awkward smiles or contrived poses.
