I thoroughly enjoyed David Sniders ‘Street Pictures’ and I thought his words were to the useful and succinct.
The number one fear, for many people, and myself is that whole step forward into street journalism. Finding a balance between capturing reality and the invasion of privacy is extremely difficult. The reason many of David’s photographs are so effective is his ability to make the viewer feel like he has literally just stuck his hand out and grabbed a moment in time. All of the people, young and old, in his pictures seem very comfortable in his presence and you really feel like your part of the photograph.
The choice of black and white is soft and graceful and the tone on each of his pictures is beautiful and even. On many of his photographs your eye is drawn around the entire frame due to his choice of composition. He has shown us different parts of the world in a sensitive and effective manner.
