Just received my book and all I can say is it is FANTASTIC. I love how Brian goes into such detail about each project, not only giving the 'How's' but also the 'Why's. Great book for anyone looking for new and different approaches and ideas for street photography.

Brilliantly Creative
Whilst getting more into my photography hobby and journey I decided to challenge myself and get this book. What a choice I made as it’s brilliant! I chose the street photography book and with the 52 challenges it has got my mind racing to think of how I can get the best out of them. The pages are very insightful and great photos to give a good perspective. The book itself is very high quality and the seemingly hard wearing too so one I can take out in the field in my camera bag. I can’t wait to keep using it and try more of these books in the series.
