Project 3 – Exercise – Street photography

Find a street that particulary interests you – it may be local or further afield. Shoot 20 colour images and 30 black and white images in a street photography style.

In your learning log, comment on the differences between the two formats.

What difference does colour make? which set do you prefer and why?

Colour

Black and white

I love black and white photography, however, I think there is a time and a place for it. I think it only works on certain images. I like black and white images where there is a lot of detail or a lot of emotion. I like to use colour photography when the colour is an important part of the story or image.
