Unknown Street
=Achillies875
reports, 1d 20m ago
reports, 1d 20m agoEvery day, I roam the Street Photography gallery here on deviantART, and add the photos that define street to my Street collection. Often, I see a few photographers who always catch my eye, and I enjoy very much. This is a feature to those unknown street photographers that are at the top of their game, and are the definition of modern street photography.

Tips for Photographers
*lullacrie
reports, March 1, 2007
reports, March 1, 2007I've been interested in Photography for a while now, but only started taking it seriously in the last 6 months. So I've put together a little something for those wanting to know more about photography and its practice.
Don't set your expectations too high, even if you are a professional. You cannot expect to get fantastic results if you are new to photography.
Invest in a good camera. If you can purchase a camera that can be changed to Manual Mode. This gives you freedom over the Shutter Speed, Depth of Field and ISO. Automatic Settings are handy for snap shots but if you want to take a professional approach take time to learn how the Manual settings function. You will get better results from your photos and be able to achieve the correct lighting and focus that you hope for.
Learn how to use editing software. This can be a photographer's best friend. You won't realise how useful it is until you also learn all the functions of the editing software (such as Adobe Photoshop). There are so many parts to it, but magazines such as Better Photoshop and Digital Photographer provide step-by-step tutorials so you will get the hang of it over time. I've been using Adobe Photoshop (6, 7 and CS2) over a period of about 4 years now, and I am quite comfortable with it (finally) but again don't expect it to be a piece of cake. If you want to learn how to use a program like this, then expect to be studying it hardcore. Remember that even some for the best photographers use Photoshop and all your favourite magazines and advertisements are Nazi's for the program.
Although it is good to Invest in a Photography Course (they do these at TAFE which are very practical and also at Uni) you have to keep an open mind at all times. I have done NO study at all in Photography, so although a course puts a nice little dent on your resume it is not necessary to have completed one in order to take a photograph and have it look good.
Practice Practice Practice. Yes we have all heard that before. But become best mates with your camera. Experiment with anything you can find. Take as many photos as you can, at different angles with different lighting, filters and changing the settings (if using Manual Mode). Even try using household objects. Try new things with clothing and make-up to create your own unique style. Keep every photo you take. You never know whether you will need it later on.
Take time to browse through art and surround yourself with beautiful photography. This can be a huge inspiration and influence. Just make sure you don't purposely steal someone else's idea. If you see something you like, print it or cut it out and keep them all in a folder/notebook. You can refer back to them later if you are feeling uninspired.
Lastly, don't give up on your dream. If photography is what you want to do, then don't let anything stand in the way of that.
Thanks for reading.
Happy Snapping.
