Street Photography Tip

This striking photograph captures a young man enjoying a smoke break, set against a textured wall on the right that serves as a strong compositional anchor, guiding the viewer's gaze directly to him. To enhance the visual impact while maintaining focus on the subject, I recommend incorporating elements such as bold flowers, distinctive walls, or even people in the foreground, slightly blurred to add depth. In the unedited image presented below, I deliberately included an arrangement of robust trees, lush plants, and a prominent pole, all rendered softly to create a compelling foreground that enriches the overall composition, ensuring the subject remains at the forefront of attention.
