DEVELOP YOUR STREET MINDSET
There’s only one way to be good that this—and that’s full immersion: you need to live, think, and act like a street photographer! And it’s not as challenging as it sounds.
There are several traits shared by successful street photographers: some of these are inherent within us, and some are acquired with patience and practice. None of these are outside anyone’s reach and, over time, they will become part of your street mindset. It’s the photographer’s version of being “streetwise.”
