Street photography captures the essence and beauty of everyday life. And two Facebook groups, Street Photography Cartier-Bresson Inspired and The World Wide Street Photography Club, invite people from all around the globe to showcase the best shots they’ve taken.
As the name suggests, the Street Photography Cartier-Bresson Inspired group is a homage to the work of the legendary Henri Cartier-Bresson, who is widely considered the father of modern photojournalism. The group’s members post images that reflect his signature style of capturing candid moments that appear both spontaneous and precise. The World Wide Street Photography Club, on the other hand, is a more diverse group, with folks sharing their personal approach to the art form.

Both groups, however, do an excellent job of painting our surroundings in a different light. So check out these stunning images we collected for you!

We got in touch with the administrators and moderators of the group Street Photography Cartier-Bresson Inspired and its founder, digital content creator Peter Pickering agreed to tell us more about the inner workings of how such a community looks from the inside.
“Maintaining the group’s quality and standards is a top priority for [our] team, and as the group has grown in size, the cleaning and moderation duties have become more challenging,” Pickering told Bored Panda.
“However, the team is committed to keeping the group clean and engaging for its members, and they work tirelessly to remove any content that violates the group’s rules or aesthetic standards.”

The most common issue that the admins and mods have to take care of is the members (of whom there already are a whopping 294K) posting images that don’t meet the group’s guidelines or rules, such as:
- Not meeting our definition of street photography;
- Lacking visual impact and clichés;
- Technically lacking;
- Color instead of black and white;
- Borders;
- Logos and watermarks;
- Over-processing.
