OVERVIEW
Life on the streets is our everyday view. Most times we take this for granted but when you look through a camera subjects, themes and magic moments will appear. Typically, street photography is about candidly capturing life in public areas. With good instincts and desire to tell a story, street photography can be very rewarding.
