Even the Streetphotography has different styles. I’m using most of these different styles as a mixture. Because I don’t want to be reduced to one style. The diversity of the motifs is a challenge for me, with which I’d like to play.<\/p>\n

Especially I don’t like to decide between black and white or color. Some motifs are better in BnW, some are better in color. The visual effect is the master!<\/p>\n

Now following some styles, which I use in my Streetphotography work, so the viewer could get a overview of my work.<\/p>\n

Black and White geometry:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
(Lines, 2017)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

In this case I use geometrical patterns of different architecture together with persons in relation to this geometry. In most cases the contrast is the main effect.<\/p>\n

I use this style not often.<\/p>\n

Posters and Persons:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
(Listening to the music, 2018)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

In this case I use the relation of persons and their habit or gesture in contrast to a nearby commercial poster. In most cases a funny situation is the result. This style means waiting in front of the poster for a while.<\/p>\n

I use this style very often.<\/p>\n

Motion blur:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
(Fashion guardians, 2018)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

In this case I use the motion blur because of long shutter speed, to build a contrast between the moving persons as a blurry silhouette to fixed background (posters, other people etc.)<\/p>\n

I also use this style often.<\/p>\n

Chiaro-scuro:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
(Ghost, 2018)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

In this case I use the constrasts between backgrounds and situation in the front. In most cases these pictures are black and white, rarely I use color contrast. To this category belong also the silhouette images.<\/p>\n

I use this style also often.<\/p>\n

Situations:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
(Mini-scooter, 2018)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

In this case a contrast by the motifs exists, resulting in a funny situation. I know, that this style is very popular by streetphotographers, but I use this style only, if the situation is worth to be photographed.<\/p>\n

Reflections:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
(Crosswalk, 2018)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

In this case I use shop windows, mirrors or other reflecting surfaces to get mirror effects of the situation.<\/p>\n

I like this style and use it often.<\/p>\n

Special case – Street Portraits:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Street-Portraits are a difficult issue. If you make pictures of faces from a close distance, you are in most cases in a situation, that the person starts with posing. Especially in the case, the person gave the permission to be photographed before. Some streetphotographers use flashlight in this cases to illuminate the face.<\/p>\n

In my personal opinion, posing-pictures are no Streetphotography, but Portraitphotography. The only difference is, that you shoot the portrait on the street and not in the photo studio.<\/p>\n

Streetportraits are imho only those images, which were taken without permission of the photographed person and which have a face-centered division. It is a pity, that these kind of streetportraits are an issue according to the german laws.<\/p>\n

Therefore I will show now only a profile photo, which makes an identification of the shown person difficult (in my opinion…).<\/p>\n
