Street Photography in NYC is a dream for many mobile photographers.

We are pleased to welcome Steven, aka @beatkerouac from New York | USA in our Mobile Photography Gallery.

Steven has not been taking photographs for a long time but his gallery on Instagram is already full of interesting shots.

He tells us about this photograph, especially about the editing process.

“I am a people watcher; I have been since I can remember. Living in New York City gives me a chance to see so many amazing people, all with such different characteristics. I have been shooting candid street photography for about 8 months now. I love shooting on my Iphone 4 but even more I love the editing process.”

MY PICTURE

“This picture was taken in late January on a mild winter day, early in the morning after a rain shower. I had just gotten an app called Night Modes, which is an app to take better, clearer low light pictures at night. Back when this was taken I shot mostly from the hip and struggled to get usable photos under cloudy conditions, so I took this app out for a test run and this photo was one of the “keepers.”

MY TECHNICAL STUFF

“The editing process started off by bringing the photo into Snapseed, I would begin by opening the Selective Adust tool and I would adjust certain parts of the images I wanted to stand out. After that process I would bring it into the Tune Image section and tweak the image just a little more before bringing it onto the Crop section to find the frame I like. Finally, I brought the photo into VSCO Cam to use the Highlights, Saturation, Contrast and Fade tools before bringing it into the presets section and choosing the one that I like. My editing style has changed since then, now I use Snapseed and finish with Tiffen Photo fx to fine tune the image.”

MY INFLUENCES

“First I look to the the great photographers of NYC in the 80′s. Richard Sandler and Bruce Davidson are two names that come to mind. They both captured the essence of what it was like on the streets of NEw York City during the 80′s. Also, the Instagram community has been a great inspiration with many people taking to the streets, a lot solely with their smartphones. Their are so many great photographers on IG that are able to capture particular moments and raw emotion, that is truly inspirational!!”

We are pleased to welcome Stéphane, aka @frommywindows from Paris | FRANCE in our Mobile Photography Gallery.

Have a look at Stéphane’s stream on Instagram . You will discover his black and white textured photographs taken on the streets.

As usual, we asked Stéphane to tell us about the picture below as well as about his technique and influences.

“I always wonder what my photos will tell of their time when they will be seen (if they are!) in … 50 years?”

MY PICTURE

“This picture was taken in a public park in Paris called “Jardin des Batignolles” which is surrounded by construction sites. I was immediately attracted by the cranes situated in the background behind the skatepark : they graphically evoke in an almost elegant way the urban environment. The boy, with his hoodie and his cap, did the rest.”

MY TECHNICAL STUFF

“All the pictures I post on Instagram are taken with my iPhone, using Hipstamatic in 90% of cases. I use Snapseed for contrasts and lights in post-processing, but I never crop my pictures. I just sometimes remove the little white or black frame automatically generated by some Hipstamatic’s films. I also use “Cameramatic” to add texture. This particular picture was taken with the “Leme Cam” app (with the combo “Tilt Shift” camera and “Dark Forest” lens) even though I don’t use it a lot.”

MY INFLUENCES

“My very first “photographic revelation” was Robert Franck. Then it was Henri Cartier-Bresson who I had the chance to meet and with whom I discussed several times. I have also always been sensitive to the so-called ”Documentary photography” and the “Humanist photography”. This is why I always wonder what my photos will tell of their time when they will be seen (if they are!) in … 50 years? Recently, Ernst Haas and Saul Leiter made me seriously thinking in taking some colors pictures…”

We are pleased to welcome Sabine, aka @der_frau from Karlsruhe | GERMANY in our Mobile Photography Gallery.

Minimalism on the streets might sum up her style.

Sabine tells us about this photograph as well as about her technique and influences.

“I’m inspired from all the people on Instagram, the different point of view on their subject, the different kind of edits.”

Sabine

Instagram: @der_frau

MY PICTURE

“This picture was taken with the iPhone camera on an early sunny day in my hometown Karlsruhe/Germany. In this case it was a quick shot from the hip, not well considered. So too much light and the blurred person almost made me delete this picture, but the colors and the mood of the woman let me started with the edit.”

MY TECHNICAL STUFF

“I always start with Snapseed for cropping and the first steps like contrast, sharpen and so on. Then, for this picture, I used Kitcam for the color (superfade) and softness (ovaltilt) and at least Scratchcam for the texture. At the end Snapseed again.”

MY INFLUENCES

“I started on IG by chance with pictures of architecture, landscapes, flowers, then I came to minimalism. Finding a gallery with street let me started to make streetphotography.

I’m inspired from all the people on IG, the different point of view on their subject, the different kind of edits! I certainly have my favorit photographers there, and I always try to learn to make it better, not always successful.”

The 24 hour Project: Backstage in Jakarta

cecile_e — Thu, 11 Apr 2013 10:25:01 +0000

On March 23rd 2013 for the second consequential year The 24 Hour Project initiated by Renzo | @aliveinnyc and Sam | @whittiersam brought “together” photographers from all over the world to represent 35+ cities on the 5 continents.

Photographers were invited to document their city for 24 hour starting at midnight on Friday 22nd.
If this year the theme was Etni[city], photographers had as last year, no precise rule to follow except to post a photo per hour – taken the previous elapsed hour – on a photo social sharing network such as Instagram, EyeEm or Backspaces.

Meanwhile an amazing curation work was done by two great ladies Anna | @annacox and Gotham | @gk_too. Both kept posting photos tagged #24HR13 from all over the world in order to document the adventure on the 3 photo networks + Twitter almost in real time.

If for a photographer the project lasted 24 hours, for those 2 it was a story of no less than 38 hours. It started with the Australian photographers and ended up with the American west coast ones…

The largest gathering for the event undoubtedly occurred in Jakarta.
18 guys belonging to 2 different street photography groups -ISTRIE, Indonesian Street Mobile Photography and Streetbanditos- have met up to hit Jakarta streets together for 24 hours.

Prass | @prassprasetio, one of the photographers, made a video of their adventure. They clearly had an exhausting day but with so much fun: look at it, I bet you will smile if not laugh out loud.

Who would not love to share a photowalk with this amazing team?

@brhau from San Francisco

Pierre Le Govic — Mon, 01 Apr 2013 14:25:40 +0000

We are pleased to welcome Benjamin Rhau, aka @brhau from San Francisco | USA in our Mobile Photography Gallery.

Either black and white or color, Benjamin captures precious moments on the streets of San Francisco.

Benjamin tells us about this photograph as well as about both his technique and influences.

“My primary medium is writing, so I was really not a visual person at all until I started shooting on the iPhone almost 2 years ago.”

Benjamin Rhau

Instagram & EyeEm: @brhau

MY PICTURE

“People who live in San Francisco can appreciate that it’s usually quite cold and foggy by the beach. We get a few warm days in October, so we were out by the ocean with that beautiful, golden hour light. As I walked with my family, I noticed this man up ahead, who had so much story in his posture and presence. I managed to get one shot, and originally thought I would crop the girls out of the frame. When I checked my roll, I liked the contrast, having them in the shot.”

MY TECHNICAL STUFF

“This was taken on an iPhone 4S with ProCamera. With that app, I tend to manually lock exposure and focus. I didn’t do much processing. I sharpened it slightly in Filterstorm and then cropped it. Sometimes, I like to give the picture a little bit of room in the context of the IG feed, so I added some white space on the borders by adjusting the canvas size in Squaready.”

MY INFLUENCES

“You know, my primary medium is writing, so I was really not a visual person at all until I started shooting on the iPhone almost 2 years ago. But I am very interested in graphic novels, and how people tell stories with minimal line. Adrian Tomine and Charles Burns come to mind. Also, I am a bit of a film nut, stemming from my interest in graphic illustration– a couple of my favorite DP’s are Christopher Doyle and Roger Deakins. I believe they are also both still photographers, but I just know them from the films.”

Black and White Candid Photography by @oriettags

Pierre Le Govic — Wed, 06 Mar 2013 23:16:43 +0000

We are pleased to welcome Orietta, aka @oriettags from Madrid | SPAIN in our Mobile Photography Gallery.

Even if she lives in Madrid, Orietta is half american and half italian. She mainly shoots black and white street candids.

Today, Orietta tells us about this incredible picture as well as about both her technique and influences in the field of photography.

“I have always been influenced and very interested in the Bauhaus both in graphic design and in photography.”

MY PICTURE

“I took this photo at Fiumicino Airport (Rome) while waiting for my airplane to be called. I saw this quite big advertising light box for Chanel Nº5. As a graphic designer I was attracted by the simple bold black typography on one of it’s white plain sides. I was very lucky because a man with a cap and a cane stopped right in front of it. I took a couple of shots and decided that the one without the 5 would be less predictable and therefore maybe more interesting as a whole.”

MY TECHNICAL STUFF

“I shot this with an iPhone 4 using ProCamera. Then processed it with Snapseed to add some contrast and crop a touch of the man’s legs and a bit of the right side, in order that the silhouette would fill the whole of that angle. I wanted to divide the image into two clearly differentiated fields. ”

MY INFLUENCES

“I have always been influenced and very interested in the Bauhaus both in graphic design and in photography.”
