Photography

[close] This group is for artists and art enthusiasts, who want to learn about an artist's journey, art theory and art history.

[close] A discussion around street photography with great books as the reference point. Street photography speaks to the human condition, and every one of us have a different view of what it is, and can be. I'm hoping that every street photographer will, in seeing the work of others, find a refreshing new view for their critical eye. These great books that are historical references, I believe, can make us better at our craft. For me, street photography covers a broad spectrum of photography, that also embraces architectural landscape, photojournalism, and humanist photography. We each envision different styles of street in our own mind. I'm hoping that each of us can offer their own ideas around the subject 'street photography'. Once a small group is established, I'm hoping that we can occasionally review some of these books together.

[close] For fans of the photographer Fonville Winans. Winans famously photographed Louisiana's Depression-era Cajuns, and in doing so documented a hardscrabble way of life that is forever gone. He was also an innovator in wedding photography and has several patents for photography equipment. He became internationally famous at the end of his life, during the early 1990s.

[close] This group is an extension of our Original group Art Lovers https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/13335-art-lovers I urge any new members here to join us in our original group for much more Art Loving fun! Here is just the additional information that wouldn't fit within the original group, namely the Picture of the Day. We may have other folders here that we once had there and we would like to revisit, but namely this group is for our Picture of the Day which is run so well by one of our valued members, Dirk, who does a superb job at this folder. Enjoy your time here and please join us there at the above website!
