Your favorite street photography locations: A Call for Submissions for Our New Book

Photos by Fan Ho Welcome to a special episode of the Street Photography Magazine podcast! We’re thrilled to share an exciting announcement that’s been in the works and is now ready to be unveiled to members of our community of passionate street photographers. Extending to The Print World with a Photo Book About Your Favorite Street Photography Places New Chapter: After years of digital publication, Street Photography Magazine is venturing into the tangible world with a physical book, celebrating the the places you love to shoot. Call for Submissions: Hosts Bob Patterson and Ashley Riffo invite street photographers to submit their work for this landmark project. This isn’t just any call for photos; it’s a call for images of places that hold a special place in the photographers’ hearts. Specificity Over Generalization: The focus is narrow, personal, and intimate. We’re not looking for the sprawling cityscapes or famous landmarks. We want those stories you tell in nooks and crannies that you return to time and time again, those specific locations that have become a part of your visual journey. Inspiration from a Master: The work of Fan Ho, who captured Hong Kong in the 50s and 60s, serves as a perfect example for this project. His repeated visits to the Hong Kong Central Market allowed him to tell deeper, more nuanced stories through his lens—a practice we encourage in our community. Capturing Change and Comfort: By revisiting familiar places, photographers can explore how their special spot evolves over time, becoming more attuned to the subtleties of light, atmosphere, and life that unfold there. Submission Details: Photographers have until February 15th to submit photos, complete with unique titles and the stories behind them. Patience is appreciated, as curating a book is a delicate and time-consuming process. Looking Forward: There’s a palpable sense of excitement as Bob and Ashley anticipate the diverse and profound collection of images that will be submitted, each with its own narrative and emotional resonance. Stay tuned for updates on this project, and remember to visit Street Photography Magazine’s website for the submission form and additional details. Good luck to all our street photographers out there, and we can’t wait to see the places that have captured your hearts and lenses. Until next time, keep making stories that are waiting to be told, on the streets you love. A Selection of Fan Ho’s Photos at the Hong Kong Central Market Links from the show Book Submission Form
