    The self-portrait at 6:00 is perhaps my favourite self-portrait I've ever seen.

      can we all agree that Faizal should print his own photobook. His shots remind me so much of ernst haas and vivian maier

    That shot of the traditional looking lamp through the window and the dark red leather sofa reminds me of an Edward Hopper building interior painting. And to think, it looks like you almost walked right by it before stopping... 📷🎨💪🏻

    Exceptional, as always. Please keep doing what you’re doing. Watching your videos not only help me find new ways to go about composition and subject selection, but camera settings and choices etc. Currently preparing for my first street photography trip to Melbourne Australia and your videos have helped so incredibly much. Thank you

    Hey Faizal, I loved this video - I really enjoy the way you see and capture the world. It's photography, but it's not just street photography, it's so much more observational and creative, and close to the way I try to approach photographing the streets. Great job!

    Wow your photos remind me so much of Saul Leiter. Really been loving what you've been posting on IG and youtube. Also you somehow manage to nail an almost kodachrome look with Fuji that is pretty hard to make without looking cheesy or having an uncannyness to it. Thank you for the inspiration and really enjoying your work recently!

    I was just in NYC over the last weekend with X100V. I was with my friends so I couldn’t take as many photos, but NYC is definitely the place with many inspirations and subjects to capture.
    Really inspired me to play around with my other lens and X-T4 to try other than 35mm.

It's such a gift what you're giving me as a beginner who started out a year ago not knowing jack squat about this craft and now I can take photos with such confidence and with the knowledge that I am getting better day by day. I can see the years of hard work in every photo you take. Thank you :)

    @troesplain ปีที่แล้ว +6

    I really like it how right at time stamp 4:10, you showed what you were doing with the “lowering” your shutter speed so you could get some motion blur. This helps me as I am a beginner photographer that is absorbing as much tips and tricks as I can to do well as I go out to shoot street photography. 👍🏼

    It’s a good day to wake up to a new video! Awesome shots. I recently sold my larger cameras because of how unsafe I’ve felt lately and just went with the two ricohs and the teleconverter. Have you ever felt the same? I’m a 4’11 woman and like to shoot alone 😔 so it’s been kind of rough ever since Covid it seems like.
    Also! Have you ever tried artichoke pizza?! It’s what I look forward to the most when I visit my wife’s family in NYC and then street photography 💁🏻‍♀️📸

    There at the beginning of the video there is that exit from the subway station, man, there you could explore a lot. It would certainly leave excellent photographs, and even inside the station. Here in São Paulo, Brazil, we like to explore train stations, subways and bus terminals, it makes for good pictures.

    Ah, man. I shoot from midtown to lower east side jus about every day... but it's been near zero degrees the last few days. This made me feel homesick! I need to get some thermals or something.
    Awesome video. It really does feel just like this shooting around NYC. People seem intimidated by the idea of it... but it's perfect for photographers. Almost no one gives a damn what you're up to and there's an infinite number of subjects. It's even better with manual/vintage lenses, imho. Zone focus heaven for sure.

    • @FaizalWestcott
      @FaizalWestcott  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks Joseph! I don't really know if I will because I'm not exactly technical when it comes to lenses. For me the main reasoning was I don't think there's any other lens option out there that's native Fujifilm mount that is 18-50 and this compact/light. My only con so far is no aperture ring
