Excellent ideas. A few of my rules: 1. Avoid the ordinary. So much street photography is just pictures of people doing nothing much at all. I seek the unusual. 2. Capture the front of people, not so much their backs as they walk away. Taking photos of people's backs can be a giveaway that you are too afraid to get caught. 3. Look for interactions between people. That's so much more interesting than an image of one person just sitting there. Hopefully that will be helpful.

Thank you for an excellent video. When you present the framework of street photography in this structural way it strikes me that street photography is the opposite of landscape photography.

I agree. Those ywo genres are quite different.

This video is putting into words what I do. I don't do a lot of street photography but went I get a chance I love it and have have often been asked why I tooka particular photo and my answer is always because I saw some5and liked it and so took the photo

cca 8:50 - exact same in my case, would not be possible without prewarm 😉

Great video as always, Peter. I noticed that you and a couple of other photographers that I follow on Fb, all shoot with their camera in the portrait position, and rarely in landscape. Any advantage to this ? Just curious.
@ForsgardPeterКүн бұрын
I find the composition to be better that way. It is a thing that I need to look into and give so thought.

Peter, would you say it is best to have a "small" camera for street photography?
@jimmywestphoto2 күн бұрын
A silent one is very nice to have. Electronic shutter for minimum sounds and yes, small camera bodies also help, both for minimalism - it doesn't attract as much attention and also easier to carrying around.
@ForsgardPeterКүн бұрын
Yes, I think so. There are so many advantages using a small camera in street photography.

Peter...Hello...Liverpool Kev here again...must be getting a bit chilly in Helsinki?.......Hope all well with you obviously...I love being in in touch with both you and Matti as you know...This is an interesting question...You may be familiar with James Popsys..UK based like me ......great guy ..knows his stuff far more than me...I think he's great...but not sure what to make of hm going to Svalbard near Arctic Circle and taking a photo of a fire extinguisher haha...is it me?...is it being Emperor's clothes?...I am really not sure......I can understand that over used ..'Typical tourist shots' may become boring...but a fire extinguisher to quote an example that if I choose I may to take a quarter of a mile from my house I struggle to understand this...even if I both like and respect the photographer?...Take care as ever...Liverpool Kev

Isn’t publishing on line, photographs made in public, where the individual can be identified, without their permission, against the Austrian privacy laws (General Data Protection Regulation)?
@ForsgardPeterКүн бұрын
Street photography is considered to be part of free speech. Publishing content in the context of art is ok. All photos are made in a public space. Technically the GDPR is not applied here since I am not making a data set where the persons are named. Some argue though that an image of a person is under the GDPR. It is a bit of a grey area.
@MSACoachMikeКүн бұрын
@@ForsgardPeter I’ve heard conflicting opinions about the Austrian regulation. Elsewhere in the world, if in a public space out in the open, the expectation of privacy is nil, so photography is legal. The Austrian law gets complicated for closed circuit TV and dash cams where the whole idea is to be able to see who did what in the event that information is needed. Thanks for your reply. 😊

It is always a possibility that something bad can happen. I have done quite a lot of street photography and only twice has there been a problem. I actually have filmed a video about one incident that just happened a few days ago. I will publish it in the near future.

What do you do with your street photos? Do you sell them, use for marketing your photography?
@ForsgardPeter2 күн бұрын
The last time I did a lot of Street photography (2006-2012) I had exhibitions in Helsinki. Now I am planning a book and Zines. I also market my professional work with these to show diversity in my work.
