No. This documentary was extremely racially biased in how it omits non-whites while centered predominantly in the most multiracial city on planet earth. This is not the streets and reeks of a colonial lens.
@@WORDONTHESTREETphoto You obviously wouldn't think of making a documentary solely featuring men. You purposely included a segment where a participant expounds on his sexual orientation so that 'diverse lifestyles' are included. You even included a gentleman of a certain age to negate ageism- Bravo! All to your credit- well done! All of which makes it ever the more obvious how you fell so glaringly short when it comes to addressing one of the most prevailing shortcomings plaguing all the Western art world (and with your own personal background it should be obvious)- the passive and/or purposeful exclusion of qualified artists of color! I've made it a point to explain that I don't think you did so purposely, but your end product woefully screams that missing puzzle piece- and is unfortunately flawed because of it. Again, there are clearly qualified candidates out there in one of the most multi-ethnic cities on the planet that you could have included- had you simply made the effort! To only feature all those diverse peoples in front of the lens is, in the 21st century no less, the very definition of the "colonial lens."
one critique that I absolutely hate about Winogrand, and I have heard it from so many art critics: "oh he shot a lot of rolls, spray and pray kinda guy" This critique on his body of work is so irrelevant and asinine, it pisses me off. It's what the photographer decides to display as his final work--that's what matters. Especially in the analog word. he's not shooting every second on the minute, every minute on the hour. That's like criticizing Picasso or Leonardo de Vinci for painting a lot. Sorry for getting animated about it. Winogrand is a huge inspiration of mine. Anyways, fantastic video. This needs to be viral !
@@yeohi A camera is always a camera. It doesn't matter if you're spraying and praying digital or spraying and praying film. Anyway, you don't ever pray because you're a woko.
Great documentary. Street photography is the genre in which the gulf between great and dross is the largest. Truly impactful street photography is really hard to achieve, and when you see it, you really know. That's partly because there's so much derivative, repetitive, cliched stuff out there. How many millions of 'street' photos are a picture of the back of someone's head walking in front of the photographer or a grab shot of someone holding a mobile phone or a Starbucks coffee? Street photography is the discipline that looks the easiest but is actually the most difficult. Which means that the great work really stands out.
This documentary has truly opened my eyes to street photography in a different and inspiring way. As someone still learning about this art, I found it incredibly insightful and valuable. I recently joined a Facebook group called Street Photography, and while the community has talented photographers, I’ve noticed some members can have very high, rigid standards-many of the photographers featured in this documentary might not even ‘pass’ by their criteria. Watching this has reminded me that street photography is about creativity and storytelling, not just following strict rules. I’m glad I watched this-it’s a step in the right direction for my learning journey. Thank you for this video! I just subscribed!
Awesome you put this great film here. I gladly paid for it a few years back. Hope we can like this and push it out to the people. Love how I don't know most of the people you interviewed.
I love how everyone that loves photography kinda gets into it in a unique way. People fall into it and fall in love. BMX is what hooked me into taking photos with film in the 90's. I'm too broke to shoot film anymore but miss it. My mother gave me my first camera when I was 8 or so and still have that camera but ya. Digital slave now. I got a proof to publish a book but cancelled it. I just want the one copy for myself. Catherine Cole was my favorite photographer. My mother.
I've been meaning to watch this for SO LONG! So excited to see it on my home page here on YT. will definitely share. This is beautifully done and hopefully there's more to come
What a tremendous accomplishment to have created this wonderful documentary. I need to watch it again at least once, but expect that I will learn more with every viewing. Making my first trip to NY in under 3 weeks & this has really lit the fire. Thank you so much!
Thanks! I’m attending a Phil Penman workshop & done loads of research. Much appreciate the photographers you’ve featured in this, a good few were previously unknown to me & I need to follow up learning about them.
My lord man i appreciate the sharing i remember sawing the preview..great documentary and interviews with a pool of awesome people..have a great day and kudos on yout great job
I think this is the most important, well balanced, nuanced doco on street photography. Loved the free flowing conversation, the diversity of thought- true diversity- and the range of ideas. Bravo, loved this - even the parts I disagreed with!
Thank you so much for sharing this documentary for us skint street photographers to watch for free. It makes me cry seeing the selfless nature of street photographers just going out in the pursuit of art and what they love not knowing what they may get in return.
Thank you for this inspiring documentary 😊 As streetphotographer in a small city, your film gives me the courage and a new sense of creative freedom to keep on shooting
Interesting. We all see the street stuff in big cities where the anonymous crowd is there for the taking. But what are the constraints or advantages in a small town where everybody knows your name?
@@BeeMichael For me, it's mostly fear of personal embarrassment. "What if someone I know sees me?" I am slowly working on overcoming this fear (because it's only holding me back from achieving more) but it's slow work.
This was so well done and very interesting and educational. I have been to NYC several times and have shot thousands of photos. It is a very interesting place and so fast paced compared to what I am used to down here in the South Central area of Texas.
@@WORDONTHESTREETphoto I did already on my other channel. Its Steves Vids here 😄. I just started this one as I thought it about time I had a photo channel. 😁
This is wonderful and inspiring! The only nit I have to pick is that some people were interviewed but no info on who they were. What are their names? It might be fun to follow them.
@@WORDONTHESTREETphoto I got to say that as a novice photographer this vid makes it looks as thought they’re just pointing and shooting and the pics come out vivid and great detail. When I try to do that with my Nikon D5300 things come out blurry and smeared.
Nice one, i think i will make one about the local street photographers here in Lisbon, one day , or maybe E.U There plenty of great photographers around that could be mentioned
I loved this documentary, thank you for introducing new to me photographers. Also I liked the balance of energy of the street and quiet interview scenes. May I ask though, why you decided not to mention Harold Feinstein in the history of NY street photography? I'm really interested.
Thanks for watching. There’s many to add and weren’t added. The historian part is a balance of addition to the genre of street photography and not just nyc street alone.
Hey Tim I watched the Premiere.... along with Samuel Streetlife... and ive returned again this morning for another session. Wow.... you made a superb documentary. Quite amazing 👏 😎📷❤🙏
@@WORDONTHESTREETphoto hey Tim... I thought you would be Zzzzzzz'ing . 😄 It was cool that Samuel was at the Premiere too. When you say share as you wish, are you meaning re-upload of your documentary with credits, or sharing the link. I've not many subscribers here to share the link to.
It is exciting to experience the experiences others, thank you Between the possibilities of street photography in the USA and Germany, there is not just a large water, but galaxies. Here you are viewed like a leper if you keep your camera in the crowd, because you could be a little frontal to be seen, gruesome.
Please Share with as many street photography fanatics as possible thanks you!

Spray and pray is also a technique
@@teohycA technique for digital cameras. Mostly useless with old film cameras.
