Street photography is a sub-category of documentary photography and it shows us the daily life of people in public places. In street photography photographer has no effect on the scene, the photographer only waits for the best moment, like a fisherman. Street photographs are usually in black and white, but i certainly do not accept this as a rule. Main reason of street photography usually being black and white is street photography created between 1890s and 1900s. So in my opinion it is not a rule you can also take pictures in color.

Street photography holds up a mirror to the public and people. The subjects of street photography are the normal people that you see everyday around you. Considering this it is more sincere than glamour or fashion photography that takes the most beautiful women and most handsome men as the subjects. Street photography also tends to capture the details and unexpected events of the life. Focuses on conditions and feelings of the people in the street. My picture “Frozen in Time” can be an example for street photography.

That is all for today. Part 2 will be published tomorrow.
