The Next Step
You need to be slightly street wise when you are working the streets as a photographer, you are working in a public place and the law states you are allowed to take photographs in a public place but unfortunately not everyone you come across will see it this way and some people get upset if they catch you taking their photograph
So if you come across this, Just apologise and show them you're deleting the image and move on to the next subject
By getting closer you will capture more emotion and more detail. The field of view changes so that your viewer feels that they are closer to the action. I've found that the perfect lens for this is the 50mm prim lens
Shooting from the hip is a very good technique to use when working in street photography, you simply hold your camera down by your hip in front of you and pointing it at you subject, take the shot at the same as you are looking in a different direction!
With some practice you will find this technique quite easy to do
Some of the settings I use
I always shoot in RAW and work in Manual Mode
My classic technique for street photography consists of using a 50mm prime lens on a full-frame camera body, setting the ISO to a moderate high speed 400 or 800
Setting the lens to auto focusing
Set the shutter speed to around 1/125 sec or higher, depending on available light
The higher the ISO setting will mean the smaller the aperture used, around f/11 works well
The smaller the aperture, the less critical it is to focus precisely on your subject, remember you're not looking through the viewfinder it's a case of point and shoot
