Course Description

Since its inception, photography has always been linked to the reality and details of people's daily lives. It has become much more important and common with its technical developments as it is one of the most widely used, close and intimate forms of visual arts for people with different backgrounds.
Street photography is a pattern of photography that frees the photographer from the narrowness of the closed space into the public space that is full of motion and rapid rhythm, and gives him/her the opportunity to capture the intimate moments of people, place, shadow and light.
In the street, the photographer unleashes his/her talent to choose the crucial moment within a space whose elements can not be fully controlled. This course aims to acquire the practical skills by roaming the streets and selecting different subjects to document.
