Do you know what shooting skills are?

At the beginning of sweeping the street, I often ignore the importance of observing the background (this should be a common problem for beginners). In the first three months of street photography, I took 50 rolls of film, but I could "see" very few photos. The reason is that when I sweep the street, I often only see the subject in front of me and ignore the background (the messy background ruined countless photos of me). Bruce Gilden also said that he took 600 rolls of film on the street of new york in 1980, but he couldn't take good photos because he couldn't stand out the main body from the background, so he decided to use flash (which is why I decided to start using flash). Although the human eye has a wide field of vision, what we can really see is always the middle part of the field of vision (we can only see the rest through the corner, but we can't see clearly). So I suggest that street photographers pay more attention to the background when sweeping the street. You can also wait for the interesting subject to enter the minefield in interesting or clean places, and then trigger. In this case, the success rate will be higher than blindly observing the subject and ignoring the background.
