Street Photography: Don’t Just Capture It, Make It Art

When you think about Fine Art in Photography, you think the focus is on creativity, not on capturing reality.

Fine art photographs express an idea, emotion, or message which is unique to the artist. Those photographs aren’t necessarily about perfectly depicting a scene.

Fine art photography can be abstract, staged, manipulated, or use special effects, including heavy post-processing, to achieve the desired artistic outcome.

Staging, manipulation, post-processing?

Completely different from the candid nature of Street Photography. Right?

Well, it depends on how you approach it.
