I feel that to get successful, and by that I mean meaningfully interesting street imagery, one needs to be in love with life itself. Like a brilliant novelist, or any top notch artist, the one thing that stands out most of all is the detailing in their work. Take Charles Dickens for instance: if you read, as opposed to watching on film, any of his stories, you would be amazed by his wonderfully descriptive dialogue and feel you were right inside his not so picturesque early19th century landscapes that he delivers out of his own experiences and observances of life itself to absolute perfection. You can almost smell the London, or Chatham, he describes so well. As they say, the Devil is in the detail.
