Working With Layers in Street Photography, Part One – John Lewell Photography

In street photography, layers are successive planes of interest and action, occupying the foreground, middle ground and background, each one holding information that captures the viewer’s attention. Together, these layers form a complete, “symphonic” image, taken in a single capture. I use the term symphonic in much the same way as EM Forster used it in Aspects of the Novell. The symphonic novel represents the pinnacle of a writer’s achievement, being the most difficult form to create successfully but also the most rewarding for the reader. For example, the symphonic novel will have multiple themes, each of which brings contrast…Continue Reading
