    I really think this is one of the most valuable series of videos on TH-cam.
    It's really amazing to see the workflow of a fellow photographer and being able to get a glance at other places.
    I empathize with your friend's story. I had something similar happen to me (minus the beating), but me (and my brother) got followed by about 20 people. Mind you, we were walking near a train station, and we didn't take any pictures because we knew that part of the city as dangerous.
    It was fortunate to have law enforcement nearby.
    But in some years of taking pictures in the street, this is the only inconvenient scene happened to me.
    One of the most valuable skills for street photography is "reading the room". After some time, you get a sense of when and where you can click your shutter, so you subconsciously avoid these kind of situations.
    Really love the framing in the photo of the old lady on the staircase, its simplicity really strikes, need to look closely at the pictures on your instagram!

    Great video! The most fun ive ever had with street photography was many years ago in Havana, Cuba and Cuba in general. The people were absolutely wonderful. One time I heard a voice say, "¡Un americano con una cámara!" And had people wanting to pose for photographs. I was surprised at the number of people who were fluent in English. And the occasional street musicians were great. Oddly enough, I felt safer in Havana than any big american city

    what i experienced in Georgia on the markets is, that people are more worried about the fake brands they sell and beiing photographed with it.

    How's this for a coincidence -- I was almost finished watching this video (after watching your video with Tim Jamieson -- great video!) when I literally got a Notification that Patrick Lancaster and an Italian journalist were attacked in Tbilisi. Luckily, they're okay. There's heavy Wall Street interference there at the moment, so there is real danger.

    When you use the digital fujifilm, how do you feel with auto focus, is it quick and does it truck properly moving subjects?

    I had bad feeling about street & portrait photography in Georgia actually, people reacted angrily/rudely. I hope it was just a matter of bad luck, but I decided to shift my photography to "street landscapes" instead, which is a shame as I love people. Anyway, I'm glad you had a good one!

      Interesting, I dont think it's the easiest place, but neither the worst. You can see in the video, both angry and happy people lol. From 1 to 10 in scale of how hard it is to take photos: it's probably a 6 or 7. Not the easiest, not the hardest. If I knew the language, it'd be easier.

    Wow that is pretty intense what you just described! Street photography was my first passion, but I switched to landscape for tranquility. I just finished my Argentina vacation recap, it would be great if you can check it out.

    • @eortizfoto
      @eortizfoto  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Lovely video bud!
      there are some tricks you can do to be a bit more stable, like always having three points holding your camera. You'd be surprised how much more stable are things when you put your eye in the viewfinder.
      Argentina is awesome!
      Take care and keep those videos coming.

      @eortizfoto  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That’s different context tho. In the streets I’m not going around asking people if they wanna be on a photo or not. Yet, it’s not right to attack someone.

    • @desibellsbeats
      @desibellsbeats 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@eortizfoto I do think that attacking someone did go a bit far but I do understand why they got angry when a street photographer was taking photos while there are kids playing. Too many weirdos out there or organized crime. They simply didn't understand his purpose of him taking that picture.
