Street photography can be an acquired taste. The idea of wandering concrete jungles and snapping strangers who may or may not approve of having their shot taken isn’t for everyone. However, for some it comes naturally and is a passion, and one such person is Magnum Photographer Bruce Gilden.

Gilden has been roaming the street of New York for decades, terrorising pedestrians with his unorthodox, in-your-face style of street portraiture. No amount of words can do his shooting justice, so sit back, enjoy, and be inspired to shoot on the streets this weekend.
