It was a great pleasure for me to have accompanied Bob Holmes when he visit Henry Cartier-Bresson exhibition in Porto, my hometown.

"Story-telling" that's it - decisive moments - that's it - attention to detail to get those takes a good eye and patience and of course, knowledge of these, are what gives them their power to inform, inspire, and illuminate. I enjoy listening to you both, no matter how awkird this interview was. Thank you to you both.

Bob Holmes has so much knowledge, I always learn something from him. When he talks about slowing down and paying attention to detail, this really resonates with me. I think I'm very slow when I shoot and I observe and wait for the right moment and "gesture" as I shoot film (usually MF) and I only take one shot for each scene. I look around at a lot of street photographers here, they run through the scene and blast through hundreds of frames and pick out a few good ones later. I am "intentional" which for me is much more important. BTW, I live in Japan...

@marcsilber 4 года назад

Fantastic!

@Oenaiwolf 4 года назад

I’ll go shoot for a day in the streets of London and come me away with maybe 10 frames and only post 1 or 2 online. You can check out my instagram @street.harrison I apply what bob says for my portraits and weddings: @harrison.galgut @portraits.harrison

@holmesandjohnson 4 года назад

I strongly believe photographs should be taken with intent. Nevertheless, if you find a really good situation, keep shooting until you have the shot. Memory is cheap!

The more I see the works from Bob and other masters, the more I realize you don't really need a big scene in front of your eyes or great gear to get a good image. Your better tool is yourself. If you can't see, you can't show. Hope one day I become half good just at seeing things. Meanwhile I'll keep watching RU-vid videos.

@marcsilber 4 года назад

He does bring it to the basics of seeing and working with light. Stay tuned for his master class.

@Korschmin 4 года назад

"Do not need great gear..."? His gear are fantastic are you OK? $4K camera and $3K lens ... with $1K filter on it. You need your eyes check? ;-)

@sebastianfernandez_delanz 4 года назад

@@Korschmin Great gear makes your work easier and yourself more efficient as a photographer. Of course you need that to achieve as best results as possible when it comes to professional work, when your time and chances might be limited and you need a good tool for that. What I mean is: regardless of your equipment, if you are lacking of the main tool, which in this case is your own eye, whatever quality the outcome is, you could have a technically perfect shot, but not a great photo. By the way: I'm getting bankrupt myself by buying new stuff every now and then since I got into this fantastic world of photography. Gear matters, but it will not make the photo for you.

@marcsilber 4 года назад

@@sebastianfernandez_delanz so true!

@holmesandjohnson 4 года назад

@@Korschmin My gear now cost under $3000 total. I agree it's still expensive but I shoot a lot and need reliability. I could make the identical photographs on equipment that is less than half the price. It really is all about seeing.

@L.Spencer 4 года назад

Do you arrange with the people beforehand that you want to photograph them? (Like the barber and the pizza makers.) Do you get model releases when you're taking pictures like that? Those shots look spontaneous to me, but I don't seem to be able to take pictures like that in public. It seems like you are taking very calculated, often staged shots but in a way that doesn't look programmed, they always look unique and often spontaneous.

@holmesandjohnson 4 года назад

I very, very rarely set up photographs of people. In the bakery, they obviously knew I was there but I stayed long enough for them to get used to my presence. I love working with wide lenses and becoming part of the action. The barber, on the other hand, was a grab shot. The only time I ask for model releases is if the client demands them.

@marcsilber 4 года назад

Yep Z6. He loves it!

@ThePhotographyHobbyist 4 года назад

Advancing Your Photography I think they are underrated. I have the Z7 and I love it. Before this I had the Sony a7R3 and while that was a great camera, I like the Z7 even more. I finally feel like I don’t need to switch cameras for quite a while.

@holmesandjohnson 4 года назад

I love the Z6 and the Z lenses are outstanding. Just ordered the 70-200.

@ThePhotographyHobbyist 4 года назад

Bob Holmes I only have the 24-70 f4 for the Z7 but it’s outstanding so I can imagine how good the f/2.8 versions are.

@holmesandjohnson 4 года назад

@@ThePhotographyHobbyist That's what I have too. The 2.8 is too big and heavy for me - and too expensive!
