This photo was my submission for the SPNP (Street Photography Now Project). My instruction for this task was “#53 Catch instants. Spontaneity, freshness” I thought this picture suited this instruction as it was something that happened as a surprise event at the Republic Club, I’m not exactly sure who he was, but he was a rapper, and his appearance, clothing and style emphasised the whole street culture reminding me of the project, making me jump in and take a picture at the spur of the moment.
I thought this project was a wonderful experience as it allowed normal everyday people with an artistic hobby to get involved and to get their work shown to different people throughout the world. This also works on people’s imagination as the guidelines for each photo are quite vague. This allows every person to capture an image which they can then respond to theme in their own way making potential masterpieces.
Not only that but this project also brings people with similar hobbies closer together, creating a social event worldwide. The project allows anybody involved to view and leave comments behind, giving people inspiration and feedback. It also gives people motivation to go out and capture unique moments which may only happen in their area, allowing them to share their culture and lifestyles of other people.
Overall I think this project is a very fun and interactive learning experience suitable for anybody who may have a slight interest in photography.
