  • Street photography is one way to focus on our humanity - but it's not the camera lens that matters: it's the act of paying attention.
    Martin Bond is a professional photographer and the man behind 'A Cambridge Diary', an eight year series of daily photographs dedicated to recording the everyday lives of Cambridge people. Martin’s images have featured frequently as the front cover of Cambridge Magazine, at the Cambridge Literary Festival, in Cambridge University publications and even BBC’s ‘Have I got News For You'.
    This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

    Merci Martin d'avoir ainsi partagé ton expérience en tant que photographe de rue et de l'utilisation des médias sociaux. Tes réflexions et ton positionnement sont précieux et stimulants pour ma propre expérience. J'aime photographier la vie ordinaire de la rue et j'essaie de la pratiquer aussi souvent que possible depuis plusieurs années.

    Martin; thank you for such an informative talk in such an empathetic and humane way. Your pictures are fantastic and the one with the gardener talking to the little girl actually brought tears to my eyes and not in a sad way. I've been taking pictures continuously for the last fifty four years but my love of photography is still looking at other peoples work rather than my own and now I have another photographer to follow which I am greatly looking forward to. Please never stop what you're doing!

    TH-cam placed your talk on its suggested queue - and I am glad it did as I enjoyed seeing it. Thanks for sharing! From a fellow street photographer that gets energized by looking for, capturing, and sharing moments worth saving.

    A thought-provoking and emotive talk touching with prescience, on the public health risk of social isolation. Top marks Martin 👏

    This is a great talk, and in the context of lockdown UK, 2 years on from the talk date, becomes more meaningful.

    Wow just came across this video again. Thought it was something i missed. But love the way you explain simply, why we love to do what when shooting streets.

    Thank you, Martin, for such a thoughtful and ultimately moving talk. Thank you also for restoring my faith in the genre called Street Photography.

    This was a great talk on a topic that interest me. I’ve always liked street photography because it shows us as we are in our daily life. However, not everyone really understands what this photography genre is about, and I am sure that there are a few that have less than ethical motives. Overall, though, I find that street photographers are genuine people that just love to capture the human nature in all of us; they have a deep curiosity and find beauty in what the rest of us think are just mundane human activities.
