One of my favourite photographers, Matt Stuart, talking about the Leica M and one of his favourite photos.

Thanks to Matt Stuart from In-Public for sharing this short 8-minute film about the resurgence of film photography.

A photo safari in London – this is Matt Stuart’s hunting ground. He prowls the streets of the British capital, stalking his prey, searching for the perfect moment. Senses on alert, he waits patiently, then emerges from undercover with his camera poised to shoot. He does not give up till he has bagged his prize – unique images full of colour, humour and the scent of the big city.
Matt Stuart gives lots of advice while explaining some of his pictures during a gallery opening.
Hm… Matt Stuart is giving a workshop in Cologne in June. 🤔 Tempting! But I don’t think I want to spend the money right now. Plus, I feel like my problem is currently less of how to do shoot street photography, but to do it at all. Should really go out more regularly again. Would be nice to see him work and pick his brain, though…
And speaking of Matt Stuart: This is a well done one minute video showing him shooting. You may pick up a few techniques: like “scratch-your-nose-to-pretend-your-werent-shooting”, “pretend-to-shoot-something-else-at-first-then-quickly-recompose”, “be-quick” or “take-multiple-shots-of-a-scene”.
