Street Photography: Life in Barcelona

Street photographs are mirror images of society, the subjects are usually unaware that they are being photographed, creating a spontaneous response to life as it happens in front of your eyes. Street photography is unplanned. You really never know what you’re going to get on any given day. A street photo should tell a story, or causes you wonder what is happening at the moment.



Barcelona is a street photographer's dream. Public markets offer a treasure trove of photos, so you will see images from La Boqueria Market and Mercat de Santa Caterina. Las Ramblas is always crowded and is an excellent source of candid photos. This book is a collection of black and white images of people caught in the act of going about their daily lives.
