How to shoot overlap in street photography<\/h2>\n

    \n
  1. Replace someone\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s face with a circular object (practice doing this on yourself). Replace your own head with an object. <\/li>\n
  2. Study humorous self portraits, LEE FRIEDLANDER<\/a> is one of my favorites. <\/li>\n
  3. Take many photos of the scene, to perfect the visual pun, the joke, or the surreal nature of the overlap technique in street photography. <\/li>\n
  4. Have fun, make jokes, and don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t take yourself too seriously. Study ELLIOTT ERWITT<\/a> for inspiration. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
