The FIRST of a series of 2minute videos on YouTube showcasing some of my street photography.


Street photographer BONGO captures life on the streets of Seattle, 1/250 of a second at a time. Focusing on candid expressions and gestures, "In a Blistered Blink" is a series of 2-minute videos featuring Bongo's street photos from 2005 to 2008.
If you have a chance I'd be honored if you watch it. Let me know what you think of the production, how I could improve on it, etc...
 
This is so well done, Bongo. I like how you featured single people as well as groups of people and I was fascinated by the interaction between the people in the groups. The photos feel honest; not staged and give an honest impression of life on the streets in your city. How did most people react to having their photos taken? I look forward to the next installment in this series!
 
Thank you Donna. No one reacted to me taking their photos because it was all candid; they never knew they were being photographed, which is the whole point of Street Photography. Some photos show people looking at me - they saw me, but didn't realize the camera - on my hip - was taking their photo. I never say a word, no conversations, no interactions - just keep on walking.

The "In a Blistered Blink" series will have about 12 installments. I'm putting the finishing touches on 4 of them now.
 
Cool! You literally shoot from the hip. In an age where so many are obsessed with taking selfies it's nice to see real, unrehearsed expressions.
