Here are a number of really useful Street Photography resources used to support our in-person street photographers workshops and our regular (RPS) Royal Photographic Society Zoom based 6 x week workshop.
I’m Simon Ellingworth, have 9 International Photography Awards, I’m the TradeSecrets.live and the Royal Photographic Society’s lead Street Photography Educator.
All images are mine and shot during live workshops.
