Street Photography with just a PHONE? Xiaomi POCO F2 Pro Street Photography POV By Dom Caligan

This is my first video for the new year, and we are doing something new hi everyone and welcome back if you've been following the channel before you know that I've only shared videos using my dedicated camera today, I'll be using a camera that everyone has and that's their smartphone. So I'm using my Poco f2 pro. This won't be a review of the phone, but more on how capable is a phone camera for street photography and for a change in scenery I'll be going around my neighborhood of Marathi stick around until the end, as I discuss my three favorites from this session, and I'll explain. Why tell me so so bye? So oh, so I hope you enjoyed that POV using my Poco f2 pro, and before we start. I just like to say that all of these photos were edited in Lightroom. Now here are my top three favorites in this session.

Now for the first photo, I just like their interaction between the two subjects down below and knowing that the specific area in Marathi used to be packed with people before the pandemic. Their presence just gave the area some needed humanity, and I'd, say friendliness now for the second photo. This was taken further down the overpass. This is by the car park section and the silhouette of the subject. It's further emphasized by leading lines and the murals covering the ceilings and the walls and now for me, I think what really attracted my eyes to this scene is that the subject stands out while being devoid of character, because it's just a silhouette, but through visual cues, like the leading lines and the murals that covers majority of the photo, it just made sure that the subject stands out compared to the rest of the photo.

Now, my last and my favorite for this session, this was taken with a lot of harsh light and leading lines, and I converted this to black and white to further emphasize the high contrast or difference between the light and the shadows visually. It is appealing when used in the appropriate scene and to add to that story wise. I can almost imagine that the subjects are walking aimlessly towards the dark side or the shadow and again, I think the beauty of this kind of photographs is that it gives the viewers their own interpretation comment down below which ones are your favorites and also. Let me know if you've used your phone for street photography in the next video I'll be using the phone in low light conditions, so make sure to subscribe to not miss out. Give this video a like.

If you enjoyed it, and I'll, see you on the next one.
