Movement

One thing that has appealed to me whilst looking through Thomas Struth's photographs is the use of movement in his shots, through choosing a specific shutter speed to incorporate the slight movement of passers by really makes me focus on the story the surrounding buildings have to say. I like the way that this technique emphasises that the surrounding building is dead still and in focus which makes you able to read into the history of the architecture. 

A great video that I watched on a set of contacts that Struth produced was useful to see how he thought and how he came to take the photographs that he has.
