Flash on the Street with Johan Jehlbo

He spent over 10 years of documenting the rural markets of southern Sweden where honed his street photography skills. This project culminated in the publication of his book “Stranger Than Fiction,” which documents the evolution of these events from a “sins nest” to what are now tame venues for family outings. In the process the project reveals the evolution of Johan’s own style. Along the way this work raises ethical considerations, such as photographing children and obtaining consent at public events.
