Lately, I’ve been spending a lot of time looking at street photography books, of which I will write later. As part of my looking for new inspiration I found this video about Todd Hido’s work, which I love. It is an interesting mix of landscape and what I would call ‘random street photography’.
There is an element of randomness, imperfection to the compositions which I love. They are a relief to the tightly controlled compositions I tend to strive for.
I always think we should strive for the highest quality inspiration we can find. If you want your photography to move up a level, you won’t get that from looking at work that is on the same level as your own.
