Long time readers of my blog will recall that in October 2009 I undertook a month long art project to take, and publish, at least one photo a day of a stranger. In each case I first asked the person if they minded if I took their photo. And, much to my surprise, 80% said yes. Well this year I decided not to take a photo a day – too much like hard work! – but instead on Monday I tried taking photos of strangers without them realising. This a form of photography known as Street Candid Photography and something I haven’t done much of so I fancied giving it a try.
One other reason to give this a try is that I wanted to enter the AVForums monthly photo competition. The theme this month is “Shoot a Stranger” (that is “Shoot” as in “take a photo of”, not gun down in cold blood”). So taking a few street candids seemed a perfect way to get a suitable entry.
As I was in London on Monday I headed over to one of the bridges near Big Ben and snapped the busy commuters on their way home. As I was using my Sigma 70-200 f.2.8 lens I was actually standing quite far away from each person I snapped. And I am really pleased with the results:
