Recently, I took a street photography workshop with Guido Klumpe ( https://www.guido-klumpe.de/ ). He is mostly known for his minimalistic approach with colors and shapes — you should check out his work! Here's one of my own attempts from the workshop.
A weird part about minimalism is you get excited about getting rid of stuff that the average consumerism-minded person gets excited about acquiring.
