Behind The Lens

Location
This photography was taken in The Metropolitan Museum of Art in the Sol LeWitt wall installation, a big black and white pattern in a long wall, a perfect scenario for a Street Photography hunt session.
Time
Probably at any time of day, any day in one of the most famous museums in the world full of art and full of patterns, perfect for looking for anonymous people who merge with the scene
Lighting
I do not seek or use any resource related to light, I only seek the reality of the scene and at the right time. I seek perfection in composition rather than any other technical resource.
Equipment
For street photography I only use a FUJIFILM X-Pro2, and a Fujifilm Fujinon XF 10-24 mm f:4 lens.
Inspiration
One of my Street Photography resources is to think in black and white, as it is the type of photography that I like to do. Finding a pattern in black and white is like a canvas on which to be able to photograph people who form a fortuitous part of that b&w pattern. That black and white Sol LeWitt structure was perfect for the search for that effect.
Editing
Strong contrast levels for the black and white highlight.
In my camera bag
Just a camera and just a lens, plus a few batteries. The less equipment the easier it is to carry, the more unnoticed and less intrusive with people. For Street Photography you must be another tourist, not a photographer.
Feedback
The best photos in Street Photography are when you see it before it happens. A pattern in the architecture of the city, a wall, something that highlights a pattern can be a good canvas, you just have to wait for the right person, who fits the pattern, walks by. The problem is that the perfect match could never happen. Therefore, luck plays an important role. You will search for the photo over and over again, until you get it, there is an obsessive effect until you finally get it.
