Street Pictures
Snider's photos reveal a photographer whose eyes are always searching for a great shot, and whose camera is always ready to take one. In his introduction, he mentioned that he had to surmount his fear of taking someone's picture without their permission. From the expressions on some of his subjects' faces, it's clear that they weren't too pleased being targeted by a lens. I think these photos were his weakest. Unless the subject is a controversial figure who doesn't want their photo taken, I think a glowering face looking straight into the camera kind of erodes a picture's authenticity.
