I remember once my mentor said to me when shooting on the streets don't ask permission,If you ask permission first, then you end up with street portraits,
which are different from what I’d call street photography. I started out
asking the public if I could take their picture, and it turns out
people tend to say yes! That gave me the confidence to shoot more
daringly, which I find to be a lot more interesting. ......but at first i was really scared to have my self on the city streets taking pictures of day walkers. but with time i learn t the above. on the above picture it was a Sunday chilled day and i used a prime lens; a lens of fixed focal length......In film and photography, a prime lens is either a photographic lens whose focal length is fixed, as opposed to a zoom lens, or it is the primary lens in a combination lens system. lets learn more tomorrow..am out.....picture of the day by Jessy kigen. #slickphoto#R2R My story there life's.
