    Fred Herzog is my favorite. I randomly found his book at my local library and fell in love. I get what you're saying about the feel of his work. I think the attitude of documentary work is accurate, and something we should all do in film photography. Create those images of what's going on because years later they'll have the richness and value of the past.

    Fred Herzog is one of my favorites. Thanks for another great video. By the way, I just finished shoooting some street photos of my own and wanted to let you know that I've learned so much from your videos, and they're always extremely motivating and have helped me realize that photography can be interesting everywhere.

    Fred Herzog was a local to Vancouver, B.C. and photographed a lot of it from the 50's when he emigrated from Germany (I believe). Sadly, we lost him earlier this year. He only really started publishing about 10 years ago.
    A good choice. I personally find a lot of inspiration from him.

    Great video about getting inspiration from more than just scrolling feeds! I don’t shoot street (I may have a total of 5 images I consider street) I love your work and what I’ve seen from these books. I’m inspired to pick up a couple of landscape “classics” and maybe a couple of wildcards. Thanks!!

    Ya got good taste. My last 4 purchases were the same Herzog and Shore books, plus Leiter’s “All About Saul Leiter” and one by Andreas Gursky. The last four library books I took out were all Meyerowitzs. I currently have on loan his “Restrospective”. Thanks for the video.

    I've been going to my local library. They had a great book on Ansel Adams. There's a heap more to read up on so I'm enjoying the free education. Books are great, especially in this age where screens are dominant.

    Evan, your link for Stephen Shore: Uncommon Places isn't working.
    For those that don't want to buy before you see, don't forget to try your library. I like to check out the books and then order the ones mean the most to me, sometimes takes a bit longer but saves a few $ in the end.

    Maybe controversial opinion ... but perhaps the appreciation of Leiter, and thinking ‘of you posted his work on Instagram it would be considered a banger’ .... is that I think some photographers were aware of his books/style via books.
    They learnt from it, adapted it a bit and uploaded to Instagram. As they did that, it became a fashionable style.
    Don’t get me wrong. I love Leiters work. Beautiful. He was the original.
    But I think a lot of people on Instagram and other social media don’t recognise where this style card from.
    I think Craig (sixstreetunder) is an amazing example of someone who has taken this style, and out a modern twist on it.
