Paul Baldando, a youtuber has a very intrging series on his youtube channel called "Walkie Talkie" . Paul walks around with Now York (now other cities) street photographers while they take photos and explain their process. I find it absolutely fascinating the different approaches and common threads of brutal honesty, Leica rangefinders, and developing the courage to engage with others. This is a deep look at the photo roamers that are behind some of the most relevant street mages of our time. Street photgraphy has been called the purest form of photograhy for its ability to capture reality without messing with it and narrowing down on the decisive moment. Indeed there is a palpible feeling of the pure form of photography when you watch these videos. There is such deeper meening for many of the artists and photgraphy is often discussed as something they need to do, many walking many miles a day coming back with sometimes only a couple keepers. I can say from my own experience that walking around with a camera has become one of my greatest joys and challenges in life. Its nice to see others on that path and endevoring to "see" life unfold in front of them and bring that sense of being human to others. Visit the youtube channel at http://www.youtube.com/@PaulieB
