Wandering on the streets or walk
through the streets is the best way to observe the moments and
capture them with your camera in a most effective way. However, it
seems simple, but it is not in reality. After all, wandering around
the streets with a camera or heading towards someone may become the
reason of annoyance or you may look suspicious to the crowd. Hence,
you need a basic understanding of becoming the beautifying your
street pictures without being a in the notice.
Here, we are trying to articulate three
common mistakes every new street photographer does, and removing
those mistakes, they can create a huge walkthrough gallery by capturing the moments of life on the streets in a more brilliant way.
Take a look at those mistakes:
Plan a Lot before Going to Shoot and
During Shoot
If you are the beginner in the street
photography and not much familiar with the tricks and methods, then
we make you clear that there are no big tricks to capture the best
moments. Street photography just needs an observer to look at the
activities and moments happening on the streets. If you are thinking
a lot before taking a picture for the quality, then you may miss the
moment, which can create a classic story or classical presentation of
a specific moment. If you are planning a lot while ready to click the
shutter, then can be your another failure to miss some beautiful
moment.
Don’t think big and enjoy every
moment you find on streets. Capture the interesting moments without
thinking too much. It is a type of photography which doesn’t need a
lot of deep thinking, just a love for wandering and observe the
things happening near you. At the time of shooting, don’t waste too
much time in settings. Editing can be handled later.
Travel with Heavy Camera Bags:
Carrying a lot of camera accessories,
such as large lenses including the bulky camera can cause problems
while wandering around the streets. It can create discomfort while
capturing pictures. And, you can also come into the notice of the
people. You should always opt for the camera which you can carry
easily and take it to anywhere. Apart from this, big lenses should be
avoided. Several compact cameras with medium sized lenses do well for eccentric street photography. So, always carry your essentials and basic camera
accessories with you while travelling for click the emotions and
humanity over the streets.
Hold the Camera Wrong:
Most novice photographers make a
mistake while shooting on the streets. They often hold the camera to
the level of eye, which causes people to look at them suspiciously.
Due to this, you can also miss the moment for which you waited long.
You can shoot brilliantly looking through the viewfinder, or can also
choose hip shooting. You can take your camera to eye level for a
moment, and then take it below and look through the view finder for
snapping the picture.
So, avoiding these three common
mistakes, one can easily become a good street photographer and can
capture great moments in the camera.
