Street photography - digital camera
Hey all !
Another story of the ethics of street photography. Is it ethical to film strangers in public without their permission? It depends on how you feel. I think these photos are important for cultural, artistic, and historical purposes, and I think I’m a good person doing good deeds, but sometimes I still feel weird when shooting in public. It may sound strange, but it is true and worth it.
About twenty years ago, street photography really began to fade and attract attention. Of course, the first wave of consumer-oriented digital cameras appeared in the late 1990s, which is certainly no coincidence. Like the invention of the Leica film (35 mm), the digital camera has inspired a whole new generation of street shooters with its high mobility.
Street Life is more than any other street photography. As in life, the ethics around it are changing a bit. Finally, you have to decide on your ethical and personal approach to street photography. Always remember that, according to legendary photographer Ansel Adams, there are at least two people in every photo: the photographer and the viewer.
