CONCLUSION

Get Lost on Purpose

Once you’ve completed all of the assignments, give yourself a pat on the back and hit the streets without a goal. This is my favorite way of photographing life: Getting lost on purpose with my camera. All of the techniques you’ve learned and practiced through this book will give you the tools necessary to become a better photographer. You will never see a shadow or silhouette the same way again. You will chase shafts of light and dog walkers, knowing how to approach each situation with the ability to create a memorable image. I hope our paths cross on the streets of the world someday soon.

Now it’s time to grab your camera, and hit the streets!
