This is a monologue episode as I have quite a few announcements this week... I also answer a listener question about anxiety on the streets.
Call For Entry
I am excited to be the juror for a new Call For Entry with the Minneapolis Photo Center. To enter, please visit the Mpls Photo Center website
Theme:
The Eyes of A Stranger - Street Portraits
Making a good portrait of a complete stranger is a challenge that all serious photographers must eventually face. It is an acquired skill.
It's one thing to take a picture of a pedestrian or stranger on the sly, and quite another to actually make a portrait of them.
We can choose to engage them or not, but each encounter should result in a positive experience for the subject and the photographer.
The desired end result is a strong photograph that does reveal the brief connection that we shared.
The eyes don't lie. Nor does the camera.
