Street photographers use the general public and public
spaces as their subject matter. Street photography is closely
tied to the spontaneous and unpredictable. It requires more improvisation and intuition
to execute than many other types of photography.
This series will to help you decide who you are as a street photographer, what you want, and how you plan to get
it. How you handle yourself on the
street, your methodologies for taking photographs, and your motives for being
there are unique. We encourage you to experiment with a variety of approaches, equipment, and
settings until you find what works best for you.
