Discover the secrets to mastering street photography―from city streets to country roads and the alleyways in between―from an acclaimed international photographer, teacher, and best-selling author.
Street photography enables us to experience the world through a new lens. In "Understanding Street Photography", readers will learn the techniques behind images taken around the globe, from the vibrant streets of Varanasi, India, to the crowded walkways of the Charles Bridge in Prague, and so many other corners of the world.
In this master class, street photography is defined as images that convey evidence of human interaction, whether that's a striking cityscape, an image of rush-hour foot traffic, the remains of a half-eaten sandwich, or a pedestrian portrait. Along the way, Peterson shares 120 "mini diaries": the story behind each image; the thought process; the arrangement of the composition; the psychology of the colours; and the lens, aperture, shutter speed, and ISO for readers to replicate his work.
Professional and aspiring photographers alike will learn how to produce posed and candid compositions, capture light and movement, and work with shadows, weather, and architecture, and hone your craft.
Through lessons, exercises, and anecdotes, Peterson shares his best tips for capturing the unpredictable world of urban life in motion.
