Introduction

The 3rd London Street Photography Festival will be taking place on the 23-25th of August 2019 at “Stour Space” and “The Old Baths” in East London. For all of you that haven’t heard of the LSPF before, it is a non-profit international event that is based in London and showcases Street Photography. The goal of the Festival is to build a community and to establish and develop a platform for networking, learning and development through exhibitions, workshops, lectures, competition and associated events. In addition the LSPF aims to be closely connected to the community and young people and provide them with the world-class resources and experience in one of the most dynamic and popular genres of photography.

The PHOS Street Photography Days festival started in November 2017 in Athens, Greece. Since then it has been hosted in Bucharest Romania in April of 2018 and in Athens again in November 2018. Now it is time for another Balkan capital to host Phos and that capital is Sofia.

So get ready for another 3-4 exciting days full of street photography exhibitions, talks, contests, photowalks and workshops! But when is PHOS Sofia taking place and where?

Street Hunters 2019 - There is nothing permanent except change

Introduction

Dear Readers,

If you are a regular on this website, you might have noticed that it has been a while since I have personally reached out to you with a blog post. Since the beginning of the new year, I have only published a few Camera bags, that you have so generously shared with us and some Throwback Tuesday posts. The last few months have been very busy for me. I have had my hands full at work and at the same time my personal life became more demanding. As a result, I had to sacrifice time from Streethunters.net. Fortunately things are now back to normal, and I am once again ready to pour my energy and my passion into Street Photography.

The purpose of today’s post

The purpose of today’s post is to make an important announcement and to share with you what to expect from the Streethunters.net website and its Social Media channels in 2019.

Athens Street Photography Workshop 22nd of December 2018

Introduction

Dear Streethunters.net Readers,

Have you reached a point in your Street Photography where you feel you need that extra push in order to get the results you need but you just can’t seem to get there? Have you found that you are repeating yourself and can’t produce results that get you excited any more? Don’t worry. This happens to all of us. All you need is someone to get you back on track and help you find yourself as a new and improved street photographer. A street photographer that has evolved into the better version of himself.

Through this course, I will be sharing with you what I have learned through my years as a street photographer and I will help guide you on your true path while trying to inspire you to see street photography from a different perspective. I will teach you advanced composition & lighting techniques, how to be yourself when shooting and taking advantage of your own personal skills and more.

Singles Contest PHOS

Introduction

Last November, in Athens, the Phos Athens Street Photography festival took place. Streethunters.net was one of the organisers along with the Bulb collective and iFocus magazine. It was a massive success! We had a smashing time, got to meet many friends and make new ones. We shared experiences, we took long photo walks and lived and breathed for street photography for 3 full days. It was a blast! You can read about it in more detail in our blog post Phos Athens Street Photography Festival – The next day.

Phos Athens Single Photo Contest

Send in more camera bags to streethunters.net

Introduction

Dear Streethunters.net Readers, for more than 4 years, we have been sharing with you the contents of your camera bags. Just so you know, we take great pride in showing off your camera bags dear Readers! At this point in time we have published 158 street photography Camera Bags already but lately things have slowed down. 

Why the camera bags have stopped

Since we published camera bag 158 on July 16th there have been no new submissions and as such the “What’s in your Camera Bag?” weekly posts have stopped being published. Unlike our other posts, the “What’s in your Camera Bag” posts depend 100% on you and your level of participation.

Dear Streethunters.net Readers,
