Re: Approach to photographing people in the street
I do wonder what these governments will outlaw next. Tag someone giving opinions contrary to government dictate and you have hate speech. Now, government greatly restricting what you can photograph in public spaces. I find it a bit ironic that a Vienna Fascist gathering was mentioned above. Here is a word with a million definitions, but at the core is an authoritarian government. Perhaps, you should worry what restrictions come next.
For me, I think I might just photograph apples and cabbage.
After traveling in South Korea, I thought that close focusing lenses might provide another perspective that I’ve been missing and it has an additional benefit of blurring the background. I shoot mostly wide lenses, but on my next trip I’ll be switching to a bit longer lens that allows for more isolation. Just a couple of thoughts and to that end I’ve purchased new lenses that focus close and of longer telephoto.
