Abstract
THE STREET PHOTOGRAPHY IN THE ERA WHERE EVERYONE CAN BE A PHOTOGRAPHER WITH THE TECHNICAL OPPORTUNITIES
As a genre of photography, street photography exists since the invention of photography and with today’s technical opportunities anyone can perform like a street photographer. This condition, however, brings two important questions along. Has everyone interested in imaging become a street photographer as a result of the rapid improvements in photograph technology due to the advances in digital technologies? How should the concept of street photography and street photographer be defined today? To address these questions sub-aims are identified and data is collected through document analysis and literature review methods of qualitative research design. The findings are briefly discussed in the results section of this paper.
