Great Picture Hunt and Street Photo, response by Manu Bhandari

I found LaBelle's guidelines for making good photos very helpful. As with other fields of journalism, curiosity is vital in photography too. When you are curious, you go sniffing around for something interesting to come up. Picture hunt also means story hunt. I also found LaBelle's sentence that said good photojournalists are not in love with photography but with people and with life quite poignant.
Also, I was amazed to see how Snider has managed to add so capture life in the everyday happenings on the streets. He has also experimented combining two photos to tell a story. That was interesting. I would love to walk down the streets with a camera capturing life beautifully like he did.
