    Mel Di Giacomo is amazing, as are his talks and his photos. Thank you so much, B&H, for sharing so that we in Europe (and 10 years later) can appreciate it.

    I met Mel probably 20 years ago at a tennis tournament in Ohio. I talked with him whenever there was a break, and after the tourney, he continued to send me photo post cards of encouragement and inspiring photos. This is a great video. Thanks Mel.

    Fantastic presentation! I truly appreciate hearing from a photographer with such humor and insight to the joys of photography. Many lessons learned plus he gave me things to contemplate about my own outlook on shooting. Wonderful man!

    Haha!!! I didn't sleep a single second .... Don't under estimate how many lessons are in there ... The one I retain at first is the humility you show... One of the keys for being a photographer ... To my opinion.

    One of the best of B&H talks. Really enjoyed it and learned buckets!

    Truly one of the greats. How often did he mention equipment or exposures? He works from the inside out making the camera less than important.
    Any five of his images would make my career in photography. Great inspiration from a true artist.
    Thank you Mr. DiGiacomo.

    Easy answer, Danny me lad. I took it in 1970 during the day. I used a red filter to darken the sky. I mentioned to a mate that I felt the Brits must prohibit people on the site. People were climbing on the rocks, scraping their names in the rocks, dogs defecating and urinating wherever they pleased, etc. Six months later the govt. put up a barrier. The camera was a Nikon, lens 24mm, film Tri X. Hope this helps. It's a unique moment. - Mel DiGiacomo

    Very nice photos and Mel's explanations. Beaches, tennis tournaments, indoors and backyards shots, with some street photography. I think, this video might be better named as "Candid photography with Mel DiGaicomo".

    @mrz1342 9 років тому

    For daily photography indoor and outdoor, are you recommending xt1 with 27mm OR x100 with fix 23mm? (Priorities: portability as well as quality)

    • @BandH
      @BandH  9 років тому

      +mrz 1342 - Both cameras are great options and will deliver excellent image quality. I personally still shoot with the original X100 and love the camera. In terms of compactness and portability the X100 would be the better way to go as long as you don’t care to add any other types of lenses to it. If you have intentions of expanding your perspective later, the XT-1 is the better way to go. - Yossi

    this training was on street photog. like so many others - he has nice pictures but this needs to be more than someone just showing off their photos - how about technique and styles and gear and approach etc. etc. - he did have good sense of humor which is nice - but for training so much more needed - please inform the instructors or presenters to include training not just a presentation - no dialog is needed for a slideshow :) - enjoy B&H sessions but many need to do more training, some do
