The Holy Tip of Street Photography Revealed

If you have been following the last three images on street photography secretes,tips,and silver bullets to the stars. This image on street photography is the last in the series.

A good street photographer has to look beyond pictures that everyone will vote on that would render up high numbers like a nude image. In order to shoot you have to stay healthy. In looking for that answer, I found the fountain of youth, the great equalizer for a balanced healthy street adventure. In case you miss it, be cause your eyes see so much. Lets just say its not the Coca Cola machine but the the face this local has his very own bottle of coca cola in a bottle with a straw. He knows not to use a glass as a westerner would do. So when in the streets remember great photography which is unlike all the rest you see begins with knowing to hydrate yourself with Coca Cola and make any' little oops nonexistent'.

About outdoor water purifiers at 100 euros and above. Just get a Coca Cola, and know you can bang away hunting down the next unseen images with any fear for needing a water closet. :)

In conclusion, try to understand something about people as you shoot street. Otherwise its just a portrait, or people crossing the street at a light change.

cheers

    Good info and coke promo. The timing of the face adds to the image.

    It is a toss up which is the moe interesting, your pictures or thw script beneath them. Always worth reading and often words of wisdom.
    I find it amazing that there should be a cloth on that table... a straw in that coke bottle for him to drink. I hate to see people drinking from bottles and yet it is the norm today.
    Thank you for haring your thoughts and your excellet set of street photographs. Very thought provoking.

    I think the translation is not exactly great, but I understand what you want to tell us. I myself was already abroad and it is dangerous to drink from a bottle - usually anyway.
    A very meaningful and beautiful Street Photo.
    best regards
