Pop #Street #Photography, The challenges 

The main challenge is that when photographing with figures you are the one who has to create the photo opportunity, anticipate and act quickly. Unlike in “plain” street photography when you see a scene worth capturing you can simply press the shutter, in pop street photography you still have to incorporate those funny little figures somewhere in that specific shot and by the time you figured it out that wonderful scene simply vanished. This is one of the reasons why I find it necessary to use a small camera like the #fujifilm x100s instead of my main camera body. Different tastes lead to different approaches, so experimentation is essential in this case. Although easier said then done, I try to keep things as simple as possible.
