Wednesday 31st January was our ‘Street Photography’ competition evening.
Winner of the digital section ‘Crepe with cream’ by Lisa Travers
Street photography is a type of photography that features subjects in candid situations within public places. Street photographs are mirror images of society, displaying “unmanipulated” scenes, with usually unaware subjects.”
For those of you who aren’t really sure what counts as street photography please read the following links:
Dougie Wallace – very much in your face, and theirs
Garry Winogrand – the father of street photography
Siegfried Hansen – less about people more about colour, geometry and design
Melissa O’Shaughnessy – a more modern approach to traditional street photography in and around New York
Wikipedia has a good page on street photography, which has a link to a list of street photographers .
The judge for the evening was Brian Law who has visited the club on many occasions.
