more street photography

In Jacqui's lecture last week one photographer who would have fitted right in with many she mentioned is American photographer Walker Evans. His series titled labour anonymous, 1946 shows a series ordinary  workers  photographed unaware at a street corner in Detroit. He also famously took hidden photos called subway portraits of people on the subway unaware.

Beat Streuli also captures people unaware but modern day city dwellers.
