That was a trip back in time. How much has changed in photography during the past 2 decades. Excellent documentary, interviews, camera work and showing Magnum’s still photo prints. That 2-day annual meeting was truly the who’s who of top photojournalists. I like the idea of evolving to “personal documentaries” however I see some top photographers today making it too personal and finding only scenes that support their way of thinking while ignoring the scenes that might make one think twice. Integrity is all we have left as everyone can take great pictures now and tell stories. Maintain an ethical approach without exception or deception.

Yes! Personal documentairy becomes a decease for documentary photography. Only implement you own opinion in a still photo.. the art is to document something with a neutral view. Thats how you can inform a viewer without to much you own opinion in it.

I don't know why when I take photos to pedestrians, they usually look upset and annoyed even felt invaded. They would stop me to shot them even threaten me to call the police. Do you have the experience?

Indeed they were and still likely are. I had the misfortune of running into one while working as an AP stringer in the UK during the 80s. Very unpleasant with a massive ego, more like a GOD complex. I will admit however, I wish I had that level of talent and skill.

@ThePhotographyHobbyist 6 жыл бұрын

What struck me is how haphazard it all seems (watching the photogs walk around snapping photos). I'm sure there is lots of intent and certain skills involved enough though it appears haphazard, but I do get the distinct impression there's a lot of 'spray and pray' going on and lots of 'I'll just try this and maybe one of them will work' going on. Maybe that's the nature of that type of work. I don't know, because I tend to shy away from photographing strangers and I'm almost always in single shot, not continuous and swinging the camera around hoping I'll get one that works. You may need continuous for fast speed or to catch a certain expression, but even then it feels a little bit like cheating if you don't know when to press the shutter and capture the expression you want.

@andrewrussell2845 6 жыл бұрын

That's just the thing. They DO know when to press the shutter and it most certainly isn't spray and pray, although with that kind of photography, you will always take a few shots to ensure that you come away with something worthwhile. It's not landscape photography.

@Monkey_D_Cluffy 6 жыл бұрын

I once heard that robert frank would have maybe 1 he said if he was lucky as a keeper on 1 single roll of film. Winogrand would shoot hundreds of rolls in a matter of a few weeks. This is the point i feel about any photography. If you shoot a singular image how do you know if you will even get the right shot? Or wait you just got into photography huh?

@Magneira 4 жыл бұрын

Yes, this is not landscape photography and they are not photographing some big event like a war or a president speaking. So, by nature, if they are photographing everyday life, things will be random and chaotic, the skill comes to know where to look, when to press the shutter and specially what to show and what not to show, so curating those photos is a work of art in itself.

@medes5597 Жыл бұрын

@-ca--hen you would have found Cartier-Bresson stupid. He took 300,000+ photos in his lifetime. He exhibited and printed less than 1% of them. He used to go through 6 rolls of film on his morning walk. It's the dirty secret of street photography - it's all about curation.

Perhaps a good way of controlling what would be independent free thinking photographers......wouldn't want a narrative straying, rather reinforce the agenda and promote the over represented.
