Recently listened to an interview with Martin Parr in which he talks about his enduring love and respect for Tony Ray Jones' photos. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to see these great pictures. Some similarities to Bruce Davidson's England and Scotland 1960
Ha - yes I agree! Tony Ray Jones had a huge influence on Martin Parr's development as a photographer. As much as I deeply admire Martin's photography my heart always returns to Tony Ray Jones' enduring images.
Enthralling! Mesmerising. Fascinating. The sfx bring a long forgotten atmosphere to a world long gone. 1965 was the year of my birth and I could very well be in a perambulator (a pram) just out of shot. This is one of those little films that I will turn back to from time to time. Brilliant Kev!
Thanks Stu! I spent more time sourcing the SFX than selecting the photos. A brilliant photographer. Now working on a couple of new ones on Robert Doisneau and Bill Brandt Kx
What a great photographer he was! I don't like that you zoom in an out on his images in this video though. A still image is a still image. You ruin the experience and the way the original photographer presents the moment he took the picture....
Thanks Jan J for your very thoughtful comment. I guess we all have different ways of appreciating the art of photography. There is the overall framing and timing of the picture itself and I know he was very precise with his framing, but sometimes seeing the astonishing detail he captured in every photograph he took makes me appreciate his remarkable gift even more and that is what I have tried to respect.
@@hutonthehill While understanding Jan J's point, however as a photographer for many decades, when checking any shot, composition and detail are the first thing I look for when editing. Street photography is mostly taken on the fly and honestly it's not until (even with digital) you view it on the computer does the whole image come alive and can be be judged as a keeper or otherwise. Congratulations on the audio and shot sequencing. I was 17 in '65 and you & Tony Ray-Jones really took me back there. Many thanks for posting.
