From the Eyes of a Street Photographer

These words are powerful:

“Photography can be taught, but the remaining 90% appears only at the expense of sweat, blood, and tears of the photographer. Theory and photographic techniques are necessary, but they are not the most important. Photography is not the rules that sometimes seem to restrain creativity. The more we see pictures of the great masters the more we find images that break those rules. The camera is only a navigational instrument of the soul.”

This insight was shared by the talented street photographer, Vasco Trancoso.
