FELIX LUPAFELIX LUPAAboutBorn in 1972 in the Ukraine, in the former Soviet Union. A second generation photographer, freelance since 1995, working with Israel's leading newspapers.Specialized in reportage, documentary and street photography, Felix Lupa has worked in social projects for magazines and Television and has taken part in many national and international exhibitions. Lately dedicated to street photography, his approach to the genre is to serve 'as "public eye", conveying to us messages of the street's wisdom.

So before feasting your eyes on the scrumptious assortment of Street delights presented for yourviewing pleasure, please take a while to ponder and of course,share your thoughts in the comment box below on our...Question For The Day:There are many different aspects to Street Photography.
William Klein and the motion blurTwo masters of photography sign the entry of photography in contemporary art. Robert Frank's book "The Americans", and William Klein "New York" initiate a revolution: photography is seen as a break with the old school and their clean and perfect images (Cartier-Bresson, Doisneau, etc.): deframing, fuzzy, grain, movement and camera shake, strong contrasts.It adopts the lesson of Capa: "If your pictures are not good, it's because you're not close enough". Klein has imposed a style and a look to the "instinctive" photo. The reality is experienced with subjectivity as it is shown. Sometimes disturbing, sometimes violent. William Klein has said that blur is part of photography's own language. This picture below wouldn't have made the edit for a lot of street photographers working in 1961, or today, but he recognises that this is photography doing what only photography can do. It's part of the 'medium specificity' of the camera to signify movement in this way. In another of his
