- I don’t think we talk enough about failure in Street Photography, I've had a tough time with this recently and thought I'd share my journey with failure.

Mate you make amazing photos! They have a story to tell, in them something is happening.
I feel you, my failure was London. Left my career in film industry to move to London years ago. A disaster. Yet, this city made me wiser than I have ever been and taught me how to accept failure and forget it; how to get another chance to be what I want, what I need.
Love your work. Keep shooting please.
Hey Dude, Thanks so much for this message! really needed, will have more to share soon
I've started listening to music to get me in the zone. I find it even helps me to get in the zone...
Brilliant video, that really was a cracking shot looking back down the bus at everyone looking towards you.👍😁
Hey thanks so much!
We've all been there Rich. From failure come success, as in your bus photo. Which looks great printed and mounted. Something us photographers rarely do
Hey Chris thanks so much ✌️
Great video and storytelling! I really enjoyed it. Keep em comin'
Cheers Dude
The best technique I’ve ever seen of a photographer using a camera is Aaron Berger on walkie talkie on TH-cam.
He uses the Ricoh like a conductors baton.
Go out, have a beer and a sit down, focus on things, women in hats, reflections, make a stranger laugh, grab a portrait and have another beer.
That’s all I do, keep smiling and moving.
When you get home it doesn’t matter if you don’t get any photos. I normally have 2 decent photos out of 500.
So incredibly inspiring. Thank you thank you thank you!
Thanks so much my Friend!
This is proper motivation, when you realise that failure is a massive part of photography..
We often quit at this point however, this is the moment to keep going or quit altogether.
Thanks so much my friend
Failure is only a byproduct of comparison. Winogrand is Winogrand. Webb is Webb. You are you. Shooting your own style negates this. Thus, there is no failure because this is your own work and expression. Not immediatly looking at the days images nor rush developing of film allows me to just go and shoot and trust my own instinct and creativity. 2-3 months before looking at images is my workflow. Helps me put more work into be a photographer. Immediate gratification is not working toward a body of work. It's a marathon to enjoy the run. Not a sprint. Cheers and best of luck.
I loved your storytelling on this one. thank you this video 😍
Thanks so much
Lovely bit of story-telling there mate 👋👋👌
Cheers mate ✌️
Excellent video. I’ve felt this many times! And even over the last few weeks. I think I’m getting it back and enjoying the process now. It was good to hear other people feel the same and your tips were great!
Thanks Dan
Man! I loved your storytelling on this one. I actually gave up my street photography per se. I mean, I still doing it but I kinda realized that Its not my style and I struggle with my own pace so I just started to just tell stories whatever I am without focusing in just a style. Failing is the only way of learning. Have a great day :)
Cheers man
I really loved this video as a maker and creator it really spoke to me.
I’ve learned so much from my mistakes and failures over the years. Fantastic visuals and great storytelling and when you put the picture on the wall at the end of the video I had a lump in my throat well done. Looking forward to the next one
Thanks so much Steve means an awful lot
All very well said, great video! 🤙
Thank you ✌️
Solid video that pal. That project of not looking at your work for a whole year was very interesting. That may have been the spark of inspiration I needed for today. Cheers.
Thank you ✌️📸
Great video! 100% agree. We'll see so many great pictures, that it's frustrating, when i look at mine... but that's the way of learning. Only this can force you. Thank you so much for these honestly words. 👍🏻
Thanks so much for the support as always
Wow! I love your work. This one in particular. Thank you
Thank you! Cheers!
Puedes darme información de la cámara , y la instantánea me encanta . Gracias
Great inspiration to put aside your failures and keep on going to the other side of the hill.
Thanks so much 🙏
Philosophical question, is a failure truly a failure if you learn from it? Went through a lot of photographs from a trip to the UK during the last weeks and noticed that what used to be happy accidents appeared more and more in my photographs. Now people started to appear like ghosts in shadows, getting exactly where i wanted them in the frame. The more you fail the better you'll get if you learn from mistakes :)

Over 99% of photography is failure. It is simply naive to just go out and expect to create a dozen masterpieces. This is why Ansel Adams said that twelve photographs that matters in any one year, was a good score for any photographer. I guess the demands of modern day social media dictate otherwise.
Thanks so much!
Is it irony or coincidence that there is a grammatical error in the title of a video about failure?
