street photography

Street Photography is a documentary photography based on capturing interesting and funny situations the photographer sees. The photographer 'sees and reacts', thus capturing a moment.

Street Photography has evolved since stating with August Sander to become a form satire, rather than pure documentary.
Matt Stuart is an established street photographer, much of his work very clever as well as humorous.









On our shoot we went to 2 locations, the first being the area between Millennium Square and Victoria Gardens; the second Briggate high street and the street next to it.
The ISO was set to about 200, shutter speed 1/125 and aperture F.11

 the picture all appears to be in height order, a wholly unintentional, but works wonderfully

 taken from the hip, interesting enough, i suppose

 man on bike 2

the other photographer, it was very windy, this picture makes her look a little like Frodo Baggins

 a ticket warden no where near any cars

 the foliage in the foreground makes the subject look like she's being stalked

 In and around Millennium Square I was able to photograph several people, on bikes, walking around etc, although some of the best were of my photography partner (in the picture above. We used the zoom quite often as we didn't want to get very close to the people we were photographing.

 I saw this interesting old couple surrounded by young people and shops aimed mostly at young people and thought the couple a little ironic.

 The main use of Leeds City Centre

 this interesting little dark alley way led to several nice photographs being taken, though not strictly what we were supposed to be photographing. 

 he looked lost, made for some photography in my opinion

 I dont like this photograph the large blue column at the side jarrs with the rest of the picture

covering her head from the rain, the woman in the fore ground is the main interest in this picture.
