Thanks @vera365 for hosting Street-24, now it is on to STREET-25!!!
Here is a definition of street photography copied from the original Street Challenge post.
Catching a fleeting moment WHERE THE PRIMARY SUBJECT IS PEOPLE, doing what people do, being what people are and which moves the viewer in some way.
Street photography is often B&W, but not exclusively or necessarily so. Contains a human presence & element even if it is architecturally inclined. Often defined as "Unposed scenes in public places": so, no street portraiture where the subject is posing - although they may catch you & look into the camera! It does not need to be confined to overtly urban areas - could be a beach. Avoid heavy hdr processing, spot-colouring etc...
The challenge runs from Thursday, September 22, 2016 and will last until Tuesday, October 11th, 2016 - entries must be taken within these dates.
Tag your shots street-25 .
If you want to give it a go but find yourself wondering, “should I ask permission before shooting strangers in public places?” then the short answer is "no". But you'll find longer and more helpful answers here:
For those who are a bit intimidated, street shots do not have to be close up, they can be silhouettes, or a person from a distance that shows the scale of the location, or an interesting background.
Give it a go!!!!!!! Looking forward to see lots of entries!
