OLDIES BUT GOLDIESDear Yardies,
For this week feature, the Filmie Team has decided to put some light on streets photos taken with old cameras.
The story of street photography starts in the late 1900’s. By that time, photos of street life and architecture were rather documentary than candid captures or decisive moments. Eugene Agtet then introduced street scenes presenting human characters as the main subjects of his photos.
Since then, our vision of street photography has evolved, and our material has changed. Films went from large formats to smallest ones, from black and white to colors. Our manual cameras have also become automatic as measuring the exposition was possible, to finally enter the digital age.

Getting behind the subject. Literally!
I honestly cannot imagine a street photographer, amateur or professional,
who hasn't done it - photographed a person from behind, that is.
I know I have. Many times! And I never get tired of it.
So what is it about these particular styles of street photography like, silhouettes, posters, and beggars, that we always keep going back to them?
Do share your thoughts.

Part of my new blog update Industrial Ghosts with 24 new images.

"There are no people in these images. Or are they? If you look carefully, you’ll see the traces of human life that once was thriving inside these wrecked walls. You’ll see dreams, sweat, blood, expectations, hopes…"

Very nice! A note from your blog came to my email just as I was watching a doco on TV about a team of photographers who travel the world looking for abandoned building like this. I've only done this once and took no photos but it was quite eerie and the smelll was terrible, but a lot of fun. These places are like graveyards, fascinating, well done :D

We've got some good stuff here abandoned since 500B.C. :lol:
