This Shouldn’t Work

Sometimes bad photography actually works.

Case in point is Tatiana Hopper’s new video on William Klein called Why “Bad” Photography Works.

Klein’s images break just about every rule of photography. Where many of us strive for clear images that are well framed and composed and exposed and in focus.

Klein’s images avoid clarity but use wide angle lenses brought in close to subjects creating distortion, motion blue and grain.

But are we up for the challenge?

Can we bring a new insight into our street photography and break away from what others think works when it comes to our image.
