Thanks, Joe. I enjoyed the video. I've also subscribed and followed you on Instagram. BTW, my favourite top is to work the scene. Keep up the great work 👍
Thank you very much, Mike. I appreciate the subscription and the follow. Thanks for letting me know your favourite technique of the bunch. Happy Christmas.
“Chase the moment, not people,” really resonated with me. The shots you included really drove home the point. The first three were all very insightful and really crystallized points that were implicit in some of your other videos. Your reflections on your craft, I’m sure are having an impact on the street photography of many others.
Thank you so much for that great comment, man. I'm glad that one of my tips resonated with you. It's one of my favourites too.I appreciate your support.
Thank you so much for that great feedback man. I try my best to connect the photos to the content. Thank you for letting me know your favourites. I love reflections too 👍
Great tips! I carry the Ricoh GRIII as well. Question regarding one of your earlier videos. Is there a quality difference or benefit to shooting in crop mode versus shooting at the native 28mm and then cropping in post?
Thanks for watching and for the great question!. When you use the crop modes on the Ricoh GRIII, you’re essentially using a smaller portion of the sensor, which reduces the megapixel count of your final image. At the native 28mm, you’re using the full 24-megapixel sensor. But when you switch to 35mm crop mode, it drops to approx 15 megapixels, and for 50mm crop mode, it’s closer to 7. This is because the Ricoh isn’t digitally “zooming” - it’s just cropping into the center portion of the sensor. So, if you want maximum resolution and flexibility for future cropping, it’s better to shoot at 28mm and crop later. But if you prefer to compose your shot in-camera and save time in post-production, crop mode is a really useful tool. I love it for getting you close to the subjects. You don't have to worry about getting in their faces too much.
You’re probably right. It looked like a lot of people were standing by the doors, and at a glance, I assumed they were security. But you’re right, they were likely staff or people encouraging shoppers to come in. Either way, it definitely made it trickier to get those reflection shots I wanted.
Joe, you have the best street photography channel on TH-cam!
Thank you my friend. That means a lot 👍
07:57 lol, most subtle sideswipe quote: "where you only get 1 hour of good light...PER YEAR" 😄
Glad you noticed that one. :)
Really useful video. Thank you.
My pleasure. Thank you.
Another excellent video full of helpful tips. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you.
Great video, great advice. I love your b&w shots
Thank you so much. I’m glad you’re getting something from my content. I really appreciate your compliments, man 👍
They are all great tips, but working the scene is my favorite. I find this holds true when I'm shooting wildlife as well.
Another great video Joe.
Thank you 👍

Great tips Joe. The 2 second peek tip is a good one so will give that a go next time I am out.

Work the scene and let light/color work for you are the most important of your tips - for me and my photography
Thanks for letting me know and thanks for watching the video. Appreciated.
Thanks for the tips Joe good luck and happy Christmas to you
My pleasure. Thank you so much. Have a great Christmas too.
Great. And as always you connect with your own shots describing the concept. Well done! I also like reflections from water puddles.

Really good, Joe.
Thank you so much 👍
Useful to know that you don’t need expensive camera equipment particularly large lenses.
Glad you found that tip helpful.
My favourite tip of the ones you give here is to find a pool of light and then wait until somebody walks into it.
Thank you man. That’s one of my favourites too 👍
I am not an expert, but I often use the fishing technique, look for light, and look for moments.
thanks for letting me know John. You're using the best ones.

"Security" outside every shop in Camden? Can I have some of whatever you're smoking?
lol. I saw quite a few people standing by the doors, obviously I didn’t check every shop 😅
@joeredski more likely to be people trying to get punters to buy stuff
You’re probably right.
It looked like a lot of people were standing by the doors, and at a glance, I assumed they were security. But you’re right, they were likely staff or people encouraging shoppers to come in. Either way, it definitely made it trickier to get those reflection shots I wanted.
First at last…
