A beginner’s guide to street photography
Street photography can be an entirely different beast: it documents peoples in their daily environment, and it encompasses both living (humans) and non-living (places and objects) elements. Janique Goff Madison, a photography student and nature lover who studies at San Diego State University, offers a quick introduction to this type of photography. Image source: PhotographyLife.com Digital Photography School compares street photography to “daydreaming with a camera.” Why? It’s a candid take on life and the various facets in and around it, from people to buses and trains to their everyday interactions. People don’t actually need to be present for an image to be deemed a street photography; the photo doesn’t even need to be shot in a city or a busy marketplace. It can be taken anywhere and can show any scene, which actually makes “street photography” a clunky term that a number of photographers dislike. When it comes to camera equipment, less is definitely more. Bein
