Some reading for the weekend
Photographer and photoblogger Liz Kuball has interviewed Michael David Murphy; famous for his street photography and his photoblog ‘2point8’ a site I like to read now and then.
The interview also includes a video podcast of Joel Meyerowitz in action on the streets of San Francisco.
“Street photography is sport. Not like duck hunting or archery, more like soccer, or basketball, or even boxing. At its root for me, it’s a physical exploration. I may not run all over the place bobbing and weaving, but the success of street photographs has everything to do with getting your body in the right place at the right time ……” who said street photography is not good for you? And I would also say a good justification for a Starbucks at the end of a meet-up.
Enjoy!

Very interesting read. And also the video with Joel Meyerowitz is very interesting to look at; I’m sure quite a few of us will recognize some things in there.
