Valérie Jardin: Streetfotografie – Übungen und Tipps für bessere Bilder
„If you have 50 keepers at the end of the day – the bar is too low.“
Street Photography ist eines der faszinierendsten und zugleich anspruchsvollsten Genres in der Fotografie. In ihrem Buch "Streetfotografie: 75 Übungen für bessere Bilder" gibt Valérie Jardin Tipps, wie wir unseren Blick und unsere Fähigkeiten durch tägliche Praxis schärfen können.
In 2021 Valérie Jardin decided to put an end to her podcasting career. After years behind the microphone she felt that it was time to say goodbye to "Hit the Streets". Scheduling guests, researching topics and recording interviews had become a chore. "Usually the audience is pretty quiet – until you disappear", she says and adds: "It would have been nice to hear more from the audience."
Leaving one thing freed up more time to do more of what she loves most: teaching and roaming the streets. "I love to get lost on purpose. I love to be surprised. I'm completely open to opportunities on the streets. It's really the beauty of the everyday."
