In "Street Photography: The Art of Capturing the Candid Moment," Gordon Lewis helps readers understand and conquer the challenging yet rewarding world of street photography. The book includes discussions of why photographers are drawn to street photography, the different styles of street photography, and what makes a great street photographer. Lewis then explores how the choice of location can change a photographer's approach to image capture: from city streets to fairs to beaches, he discusses the impact different environments have on the process of street photography. Another crucial element to becoming a good street photographer is learning to travel light, with minimal equipment. Lewis provides practical advice on everything from cameras and lenses to camera bags and clothing. He also delves into the techniques and approaches that will help novices master the art.
