"I love photography. What about desolate places and abandoned buildings. Or castles " EVEN BETTER!!
Took these photos of some graphiti covered ruins at Marine Lake Beach just of Bristol town, I tried adding a few on here, couldn't. Another shot had these cool dude rolling a joint off the top of the ruins.
Any suggestions??!! |

By street you mean candid people stuff? I love taking the camera out and just seeing what I come across. I find you can do it anywhere. Ironically where you live is often the hardest because you are so used to everything around you that seeing it afresh is difficult. My advice is just open your front door and see what is on the other side. |

What do you call 'street photography'? If it's interesting streets than try Brighton's piers, seafront, and unique Lanes, or Manchester's Northern Quarter or Liverpool Docks and vibrant streets. However in London try Shoreditch/Brick Lane with its graffiti and culture, Southbank buildings and people, or any of the great train stations like King's Cross or Paddington (though you have enough iconic stations up north) |

The time of year can give a very different feel. If you take Cambridge, late September or Early October you've got Fresher's Week with lots of excited new students. Get to May and "quiet period" for exams and you'll see students feeling the pressure during the day. Then into June you get the May Balls as they party to celebrate the end of the year and heading out at any time up to around 6am.
The city certainly has a range of architecture to give different backdrops to your photos. |

Honestly, if you have a back garden, go there, or maybe a local park.
Use a macro lens and photograph things that people take for granted.
You get amazing bokeh with a macro and exquisite detail. Late evening natural light is best. Even taking an Led bar light to back illuminate things can give superb results.
People focus on the big picture too much and ignore what's right under their noses. |

Google what's about in your area, I live on the North Welsh Border and there is an abundance of stuff to photograph....
Bridges and landscapes were the topic of my last photography session |
