The Street Photographer's Manual
July 2014

David Gibson’s book, The Street Photographer’s Manual was recently published by Thames & Hudson.

“The remarkable thing about this book is that 80% of it simply came tumbling out of my head. It is – to be a bit grand – about a love affair with street photography that has endured for over 25 years. Everything goes into this book, the history and kindred spirits together with my singular approach on how you might do it. The book is almost a retrospective of my work but more importantly it includes photographs from many others, such as Saul Leiter, Sergio Larrain, Fan Ho and Elliott Erwitt. It is also a deep appreciation to my In-Public (magazine) colleagues whose work inevitably feature throughout”
