Takin' It To The Street

As soon as I discovered street photography I knew it was a genre I loved. The immediacy of it, the intimacy, the spontanaety. I discovered it some time ago I've admired the photography I've seen since. I thought, "Ok I'm going to go out and do it". It isn't just that easy. It's taken me some time to cross the little barrier of getting photos of people who aren't expecting it. I've studied it, read how other photographers do it. I've tried to memorize their do's and don'ts but in the end I just had to get out the camera and walk up the street. Now here is another thing. I want to give myself experience with black and white photography. It's a different way of doing things so I will be shooting for b&w for a while.  Here are some examples.

 

  

  

  

  

 

I hope you enjoy these. It is new to me and I have to admit I am liking the process. So far.
