This was so much fun to shoot. I've learned so much from the previous FMP practice we did. I decide to do another 24 street photography essay as that the sort  of photography i like doing. I decided to do everyday things are their is no right or wrong. I researched Nick Turpin as my leading artist because his work is insane but original as i never seen shoots likes his. He manged to turn everyday shots into a unique photographic collection. I did struggle but I kept my calm and still carried on and didn't give up. It was a fun experience and i ended up in places that i don't normally go to like Brockley even though my original plan was just to go to Greenwich. The weather wasn't the best as it did rain a lot and on the last day the skies above London had given a lot of sunny weather , it was still cold but the sun helped with a lot of images to cause shadows and highlights without editing all images on Photoshop. I use a range of Photoshop skills to crop , brighten and even made one image like a cartoon effect. I use an range of camera skills like camera shake , POV etc to help change up the images. I also used the range of Shutter speeds (1/25 , 1/60 and 1/250) ISO'S (200 , 400 , 1600 and sometimes 3200) and a Aperture (f/4 , f/16 and f/25) , this was all on the location , the time of day , how busy it was too.

# data[].attributes.body
I really loved this FMP task much more than first one as we had more time to think and complete this piece. I didn't just take pictures of me by standing on the street , so me , moving was my best option. I've chosen these images to represents my target and what my primary idea was all about (Everyday Life). Whether your going to college , work , home or out in general that was my goal to do. I mange to get people doing basic normal things like playing , walking , traveling , on the phone , going to shops , going to a cash machine. But unfortunaly not everyone gets to do that hence why I wanted to have a range where everyone would fit in including homeless people.

# data[].attributes.body
So for this experiment I decided to do some camera shaking as from a technique we learnt a couple of weeks back. I decided to do that to show how busy streets can get at any time of day especially mornings , lunch , afternoons and sometimes evenings. I used a ISO of 400 and Shutter speed of 1/25 which helped capture each someone walking at an normal speed. I decided to do this on a man road as they are the roots to help reach another location or your final destination.

# data[].attributes.body
As their not the right settings for a good night photography , I did spend my time while waiting for my bus to go to my location to sort and correct the right settings. All photos were eye level and as I was walking. However I did try and do some shoot from hip but it never worked due to my height and the weather conditions were terrible.

I choose these Images as the POV (POINT OF VIEW EXPERIMENT) as i tried to do my point of view from the top of the college. It did but also didn't work as things like trees were getting in the way. I could of changed the exposure settings down to balance out the lighting but as it was my first experiment it can help me with my final outcomes and to think before I shoot which will help me to correct the photos to the right shutter speed , ISO and Aperture.

What is street photography ?
Street photography, also sometimes called candid photography , is photography conducted for art or inquiry that features unmediated chance encounters and random incidents within public places  Although there is a difference between street and candid photography, it is usually subtle with most street photography being candid in nature and some being classifiable as street photography. Street photography does not necessitate the presence of a street or even the urban environment. Though people usually feature directly, street photography might be absent of people and can be of an object or environment where the image projects a decidedly human character in facsimile or aesthetic.

If you have a photography plan, it will drive your creativity. This is true of any style of photography, but in this article you'll see different photography project ideas to jump start your street photography.
The best known street photography project of recent times is Humans of New York. The reasons for its success are many. It has a simple relatable concept, well executed photos, and it focused on the work.
A project sets parameters, a clear working space to explore, and then the best work follows.
No idea what street photography project ideas to try? We've got you covered with ten photography project ideas that you can try yourself!

1. Choose a Theme

A theme will give your photos cohesion, which of course will make them work better as a set. The right theme will make each individual photograph stronger.
What kind of themes could you choose? Below are some photography project ideas you can easily be applied to the area where you live.

Transport - Transport is something we all use, so why not make this the theme of your street photography? Subways, buses, even bikes give you options you can explore photographically. Should you choose something like the subway, seek permission first from the relevant authorities.

Markets - Many people congregate in markets, which makes them a great place to practice street photography. Will you concentrate on one specific market, or look to visit all the markets that happen in your area? Perhaps you will look at only one type of market, for example fish, and photograph fish markets in numerous locations.

Location - The previously mentioned humans of New York project had its roots in a location. Why not look at a photography project similar to this, only from where you live? A study of your local area will be a rewarding way of really finding out about where you live, through the people who live there.

2. Use Experimental Compositions

The use of a unique composition in every photo will make your work strong and recognisable. Projects are often about keeping one thing constant, and varying the rest of your content.
The use of a strong composition is one such project you can pursue, and once again here are some photography project ideas for this.

Half face - Street photography is all about people. Why not go with an unusual composition of a half face? This type of photo has a detail element to it, and works well with a varied mixture of different faces.

Minimal - Most street photography shows photos that have a lot of elements in them, in other words they are often busy. How about going in the other direction with street photography that has a minimalist tone? The use of photos against the sky, or against a wall are ways of getting this result.

Body parts - Another photography project idea you could use is photographing a specific body part. The obvious thing for most people to photograph is the face, but how about a project where you only photograph hands?

3. Use Light and Shadows

Using light and shadows is the hallmark of all good photography. When it comes to street photography both people and buildings can cast strong shadows, that can be used effectively for your work.
The photos you create will have strong light contrast, which will really make them pop.
How can you best achieve this? Read on and find out.

A shard of light - This can be used as a type of spotlight on the face of your subject. Look for places that have a gap in the roofing, or an archway that the sun shines into. The background should not be lit up by the sun for this approach to work. Now set your exposure value to around -2 or even -3, and when someone walks into the sunlight take their photo. The result should create a low-key photo, with a black background, and a correctly exposed face.

Cast a shadow - You don't need to be a lord of light to cast a shadow! You just need to visit locations at the correct time of the day. The shadow will be longer just after sunrise, and before sunset, so factor this into your decision on when to photograph. Websites like suncalc can also help you plan when to visit a location, so you are getting the sun in the right direction. You can aim to photograph shadows of people, or perhaps use strong shadows on a wall to frame a person who is walking past that wall.

4. Striking Silhouettes

Once again using the light, silhouettes can look great in your photos. Photos like this are sometimes described as contre-jour, which is French for against the daylight.
This is exactly what these photographs are. To produce them you need to be photographing against a strong light, usually the sky. To get good results with this form of photography you will want to get strong silhouettes, with defined shapes.
When photographing against the sky this will almost certainly require you to photograph from a low angle, and up towards the sky.
The exception is a shiny surface, such as cobblestones when they reflect the light. In this case it's an advantage to photograph from a higher angle.
Silhouettes will work very well for street photography, and you will get great subject isolation by doing this.

5. Contrasting Styles

High contrast makes for great photos, but contrast is not simply restricted to the light. Look for other forms of contrast in the world around you, and you'll have some great street photography.
How can you explore the concept of contrast with your photos? Take a look at the following and decide if you can make that happen where you live.

Colours - The use of colour combinations like red/blue or yellow/purple can lead to some stand out photography. Not every area will allow for this type of photography, but places like the blue city of Johdpurr are great for exploring this type of photography.

Old vs New - Can you find people wearing old traditional clothes right next to people wearing modern ones? This can be an exciting photography project that you can use to explore the culture of your home area.

6. Photography Project Ideas With Numbers, the 365 or 52!

One of the greatest photography project ideas of recent times were the 365 and 52 projects. Those not familiar with them, these are projects where you take daily or weekly photos for one year.
Now of course this can be applied to any form of photography, so why not have some fun and use this for your street photography!

365 days - This is intense, and not for everyone. Taking one photo per day sounds straightforward, yet it can be gruelling. The key is planning ahead, and saving the easy photos for when you're busy or not feeling well.

52 weeks - The less demanding cousin of the 365 project, this is a fun one to play around with. You can make this slightly more interesting by choosing a weekly theme, or perhaps changing the theme once per month.

7. Lighten the Mood

Why so serious? Street photography is about all life, and there are fun moments to be had wherever you photograph.
Juxtaposing a background against your main subject can be one way of adding humour to your photo. The scene needn't even be funny, capturing a scene that shows the warmth of a genuine smile isn't easy but will be a great street photo.
A word of caution here though. Capturing a photo which is funny because it puts someone else in a bad light could lead to confrontation later on if that person sees the photo and is unhappy with the result.

8. Experiment With Slower Shutter Speeds

Your camera is a creative tool, and the ability to control the shutter speed allows for some more dynamic photography project ideas. This entails the application of panning and motion blur to street photography, techniques that will bring your photos to life through movement.
Typically you'll not want to use too long a shutter speed here, experiment with exposures between 1/10th and 1/2 a second in length.

Panning - In this case you're going to follow the movement of a person, or perhaps a cyclist. The idea is to blur out the background, while keeping the object you're following sharp. Depending on how fast the person or object is moving you will set the shutter speed accordingly. Typically panning photos are around 1/20th second.

Motion blur - The alternative way of adding motion to your scene is to keep the background steady, and capture the movement of people with a slower shutter speed. You'll likely need a tripod for this, so you'll have a hard time not standing out. However the results can be very interesting. Don't use an overly long exposure, or the people in your photo won't show up.

9. Look for the Decisive Moment

Well this is the essence of good street photography isn't it? Yes it's possible to get good street photos without this magical x-factor, but the really great photos are about that decisive moment. This is not an easy skill to master, as a lot of it is instinctive.
That said putting yourself in the right position to get that photo will allow you to, and with it the instinct will develop.

Fishing - One way to get the decisive moment is to wait for it to come to you. This is a lot like fishing, as you need to be patient. In fishing you could be waiting hours for one fish to bite, and well this could equally be the case for your decisive moment photo if you choose the location and wait for the action.

Quick on the draw - Alternatively you can model yourself on those western movie shoot outs, where you need to be quick on the draw. Visiting places like markets where decisive moments are frequent is a good place to practice what needs to be a lightning quick reaction.

10. Make It a Portrait

A great project to try when doing street photography is a portrait based one. There are many personalities out there on the street.
You're not really looking at decisive moment so much with this type of photo, but capturing the emotion on the person's face will give you much better results. Should this be a project you want to try, the following are a few tips for making it more successful.

The approach - This project is going to require you to ask permission to take a photo of your subject. Working out who to approach, and how to approach that person will improve your chances. The chances of success are higher with people who are alone. Be polite and professional. Having a business card and explaining your project is a great idea.

Build rapport - Having gained permission your next objective is to get to know the person. Ask about their day, and what they're doing there. The more you know the better your chances of composing a photo that really shows that person's personality.

Look for the light - Having an agreement to take a person's photo means you can control the light, and make a much better portrait. Using the ambient light that's in your scene, and attempting to get some light in the person's eye are both desirable aims.

Which of These Photography Project Ideas Will You Use?

No doubt you've delved into some photography project ideas in the past. Have you ever tried one with a street photography angle? Now is the time to get out and put together a body of work on just one subject.
Here at ExpertPhotography we are keen to see your work, so please share the project you decide to pursue with us in the comments section.

This was a hit or miss.I wanted to get shadows and reflection.I'm so glad it rained when it did as it help with getting people reflection during the day while their off to do everyday things. I mainly got people who was going home , going to and from work ,going out with friends or family and people going to the college from all angles. Some photos I captured different rule of thirds , leading lines , Framing with in a frame and just using natural everyday things like bus stops , fences , pavement etc. Their is mainly dark colors like grays , blacks , browns and green which does help to brighten the day. This shows how dull and cold these days were over the days I was shooting.I tried my best to use natural lighting with no flash needed and if needed to change the camera settings.The lighting is mainly going around as its coming from the sky (the sun). I used the camera setting of 1/250 which was a fast shutter speed , between 800-6400 ISO depending on the time of day and how much light their is.

Introduction

Everyone that shoots Street knows that passion and drive alone are not enough to keep one going for years and years. There are times when the will is not enough because of lack of purpose. This is something that is apparent in many things in life.

Our brains need goals in order to make our life experiences interesting. In Street Photography there comes a point when just hitting the streets and shooting random photos, is not enough no matter how good the photographs. Without purpose the experienced Street Photographer's eyes can't see interesting situations.

Why is that?

All three reasons stated below are mine and mine alone. That means that you might not agree with them or find them somewhat not to your liking. Then again, you might agree with them 100%. What is important to me is to explain to you the reasons why I Street Photographers stop "seeing" as they used to when they initially started practicing the art. So, in my opinion:

The experienced Street Photographer isn't attracted to the cliches any more, so naturally fewer shots are fired aimed towards simple everyday situations that offer nothing new. This makes the daily image count decrease significantly. Sometimes this is misconceived as a lack of inspiration, but it is not. It is just the natural evolution of the Street Photographer who is now in search for more unique images. Photos that stand out and can never be repeated.

The experienced Street Photographer is no longer ecstatic about clicking the shutter button from the minute he/she steps out into the streets. The Street Photographer doesn't shoot without being sure of why he/she is doing so anymore. The period of taking 1000 photographs per photo walk is over. If a shot isn't worth capturing the Street Photographer doesn't bother with it. His/her natural evolution has made him/her count on skill and patience to make images and not so much on just blind luck and a trigger happy finger.

The experienced Street Photographer needs more out of each photo walk. He/she has the need for something bigger, something that will make him/her go out again the next day and the next. Something that grows and evolves, something with a continuum. Something that will help him/her grow his/her body of work in a meaningful way. What the experienced Street Photographer needs is a purpose and for one to have a purpose, one must have projects.

What is this post about?

In this post I will not examine the reasons why projects in Street Photography are an important stepping stone in a Street Photographer's path. What I will be sharing with you is the big fat list of 45 Street Photography project ideas that I have made for myself and which I think you will enjoy too. I have been working on this list for months and I think it is now ready to share but there is always room for more ideas!

List of Street Photography project ideas

All ideas are presented in random order, just as they came to me. I have added some short descriptions to help you understand the nature of each idea.

1. Eat
Photos of people enjoying their food as freely as possible. The sloppier the better.

2. Looking down
Photos of people looking down from balconies and windows.

3. Corners
Photos of interesting corners shot with a wide angle lens, revealing life as it unfolds in the streets on both sides of the corner.

4. People on the job
People doing their everyday jobs.

5. Portraits
Photos of peoples faces mainly. The photos can be posed.

6. Panning
Photos of moving subjects shot at medium to slow shutter speeds with low ISO that give a sense of movement.

7. High speed freeze
The opposite of Panning, shoot people at very high shutter speeds and try and freeze split seconds in time.

8. Hands full
Photos of hands full of anything. For example hands with coins, hands with dirt, hands with a tablet, a smartphone, etc.

9. Project 365 or Project 52
A 365 project is to add 1 Street Photo to your collection every day. A 52 project is the same thing but on a weekly basis.

10. 30 Day Project One Camera & One Lens
For 30 days, use only One Camera & One Lens to make photographs.

11. Smiles with Braces
Capture people wearing braces smiling.

12. Motion Blur crowds
Set up your cameras on tripods (sorry there is no other way around this, unless you have solid, motionless hands) and shoot crowded places with very slow shutter speeds.

13. Behind glass
Make photos of people and situations behind glass. That glass can be coloured, shattered, anything.

14. Shoot the same corner of your town every day for 1 year
Every day shoot a corner of your choice and document the different happenings that occur there and make a collection of photos.

15. 30 days of B&W only
Make black and white photographs for 30 days. No colour allowed. If you shoot digital, shoot B&W jpgs, not RAW because RAW retains colour information. If you shoot film, just use B&W film.

16. 30 days of a specific colour
Pick a colour, any colour and focus on making photos that include it as the main focal point. Do this for 30 days.

17. Project 28 (28 days, 28 photos, 28mm lens)
I read about this somewhere and I liked the idea. For 28 days, shoot 28 photographs using a 28mm lens.

18. Project 35 (35 days, 35 photos, 35mm lens)
For 35 days, shoot 35 photographs using a 35mm lens.

21. Silhouettes
Make a collection of photographs of Silhouettes.

22. Only Shadows
Make a collection of photographs of just human Shadows without any visible people.

Street Essay -  Reflection and Shadows

What is reflection photography?

Reflection photography, also referred to as mirror photography, is when you use reflective surfaces to create an artistic echo of a scene. ... Of course, less traditional resources such as metal, tiles, mirrors and anything with a shiny surface can also be easily incorporated into this type of photography

What is shadow Photography?

When talking about photography the term 'shadow' is used to describe the darkest parts of an image. ... Manipulation of the lighting and exposure of shadow within an image can be used to add or remove darkness from a scene, dramatically altering the overall feel and depth of a photograph.

What’s the difference?

Shadows and reflections are the effects of light. Shadows are formed when objects block a source of light. Night is caused by the Earth blocking the light from the Sun - on the half of the Earth in shadow it is night time. ... Reflections are caused by light bouncing off objects.

Key Words : reflection, refractions , sun light , night light , shadows , lights , night , day

Aurora Borealis are a natural light phenomena that can be seen specially in the Earth Poles. The North Pole ones are called Aurora Borealis or Northern Lights, while the South Pole are Aurora Australis or Southern Lights. They appear because of a collision from the particles that form the sun wind against the magnetic fields of the Earth.
The scene of this video is Iceland, a place with amazing landscapes at any time of the year, but it's in winter when this country attracts the most attention because of the Aurora Borealis or Northern Lights.

Enrique Pacheco has made this video during many personal expeditions and workshops in Iceland from the last three years. Enrique Pacheco is an expert in Iceland landscape and Aurora Borealis shooting, with more than 12 successful trips. If you are interested in travel to Iceland and live this unique experience, Enrique Pacheco offers workshops, in which you'll learn the time-lapse technique, improve your photography skills and enjoy the amazing phenomena of the Aurora Borealis. http://www.enriquepacheco.com/workshop-aurora-borealis-in-iceland

This video has been made with the time-lapse technique, using DSLR cameras to capture consecutive pictures and then put them together. Most of the shots have 10 and 20 seconds of exposition in between, were shot with wide lenses and with the maximum aperture. ISO 1600 and 3200 are the main ones.

The equipment that Enrique Pacheco used was Sony a99 and Zeiss 16-35 f2.8 for most of the shots, sometimes also Sony RX1.

Enrique Pacheco has had the participation of Péter Nánási (www.peternanasi.com) as music composer. Péter has created an amazing music piece, exclusive for this video.
Special gratitude to Péter, as well as to Sony and Kietacam, Enrique Pacheco's sponsors.

Las Auroras Boreales son un fenómeno natural en forma lumínica que puede verse principalmente en los polos de la tierra, llamándose Boreales las que se producen en el polo norte y Australes en el polo sur. Su aparición se debe al choque contra los campos magnéticos de la tierra de las partículas que componen el viento solar.
Islandia es el escenario de este video, es un lugar de paisajes increíbles en cualquier época del año, pero es en invierno cuando este país cobra gran protagonismo gracias a las Auroras Boreales.

Enrique Pacheco ha realizado este video durante las numerosas expediciones personales y workshops que ha desarrollado en Islandia en los últimos tres años. Enrique Pacheco es un experto en el paisaje Islandés y en la captura de Auroras Boreales, con más de 12 viajes con éxito. Si estás interesado en viajar a Islandia y vivir esta experiencia, Enrique ofrece talleres, en los que además de aprender la técnica time-lapse y mejorar tus dotes de fotografía, podrás disfrutar del impresionante fenómeno de las Auroras Boreales. http://www.enriquepacheco.com/workshop-aurora-borealis-in-iceland

Este video ha sido realizado con la técnica de time-lapse, es decir, utilizando cámaras DSLR para la captura de fotografías fijas consecutivas. En la mayoría de los planos las tomas tienen entre 10 y 20s de exposición, y fueron tomadas con ópticas angulares y a máxima apertura. Utilizando casi siempre ISO 1600 o 3200.

El equipo utilizado ha sido Sony a99 y Zeiss 16-35 f2.8 en la mayoría de las tomas, así como Sony RX1 para algunos planos.
Para este video Enrique Pacheco ha contado con la participación especial de Péter Nánási (www.peternanasi.com) como compositor. Peter ha creado una magnífica pieza musical, exclusiva para este video.

During the month of May, I shot Milky Way timelapse in central South Dakota, when I had the time, and the weather cooperated. The biggest challenge was cloudy nights and the wind. There were very few nights, when I could shoot, that were perfectly clear, and often the wind was blowing 25mph +. That made it hard to get the shots I wanted. I kept most of the shots low to the ground, so the wind wouldn't catch the setup and cause camera shake, or blow it over.  I used a Stage Zero Dolly on the dolly shots and a "Milapse" mount on the panning ones. 

This was all shot at night.  If you see stars and it looks like daylight, it is actually moon light.  20+ second exposures make it look like daylight.

Canon 60D and T2i
Tokina 11-16
Sigma 20mm F1.8
Tamron 17-50

Dynamic Perception Stage Zero Dolly http://www.dynamicperception.com

Shot in RAW format, the Milky Way shots were 30 seconds exposure F2.8 or F1.8 with 2 second interval between shots, for 3-4 hours run time. ISO 1600

Available for licensing in 4K Ultra HD resolution

Ten seconds of the video is about 2 hours 20 minutes in real time.

Simon Wilkinson from http://www.thebluemask.com created the soundtrack "Exodus" for the video

Movement time lapse

When the person with the camera also moves with the camera ( every 5 steps you take you take a picture and so on)

What it is ? It is a very analog movement. Camera shoots, motor moves, camera shoots, motor moves, etc. In contrast, with a constant motion time lapse, the motor is slowly moving the camera the entire time. It does not stop and wait for the camera. ... That simply isn't enough movement to have a significant effect.

# data[].attributes.body
So this way back I did 10 steps at upper chest point. I did the same camera settings as previous movement. Unfortunately my last few images I accidentally deleted as I was sorting my files out. I made it to fast so next time we do This I will make sure that the speed is slower

# data[].attributes.body
I did 2 steps between each shot. I decided to walk with two other photographers (at different heights each as we all different sizes). It's very different to the original time lapses that we did ad we are walking with the camera rather than just standing their with a tripod for hours. I do prefer this types of lapses as you get to have different lengths and point of views as unlike a tripod where your limited to hour much you move. I used a ISO of 400 and aperture of 1/60 to capture the outside light

# data[].attributes.body
As we was the first group to reach Battersea bridge we decided to climb up the wall and set up the tripod and capture another time-lapse but this time of the public and transport etc. The way I set up the the camera and tripod I found it possible to also capture the water and the birds. It was fun. I used different camera settings to previous (iso 1200 , aperture at 1/60). I purposely left my one at a fast speeds to capture the city and the people

# data[].attributes.body
I’m really pleased with how this has turned out because it really helps capture the difference timings of the day. Each photo I kept the camera settings the same as if I changed the settings at any point it would effect the final outcome. The camera settings were high ISO (3200) Shutter speed (1/320) and aperture (f/18). I did post different times speed of the final outcome (23.9) and (12 ) seconds. I stood more facing the sun to get the reflection on the water
