[...] Looking back at the many captures when we returned to Singapore, I remembered discarding all except one. It didn’t occur to me to document my selection process, till I chanced upon duChemin’s post (video podcast: My Process – NYC Busker). [...]

Thank you for this David. It’s reassuring to see the bad frames along with the good and know that when I’ve shot 50 frames and only see one or two I’m happy with that I’m not hopeless.
But even more importantly, seeing another creative person’s process is something I never get enough of and I appreciate you taking the time to share yours. I found it really helpful. Thanks!

That video was super enjoyable, thanks so much for walking us through your process. It was helpful for me and reminded me of some things I’ve let fall by the wayside a bit lately.

Love it. Love it.

Thanks for sharing your creative process. I have often wondered what goes through a professional photographer’s head to get to the shot they’re happy with. And now I know!
Looking forward to your creative live class.

David,
Thanks for posting the video.I must admit that the first try at viewing, I was bored and walked away. But when I came back and watch further I totally understood your narrative and your approach to the shot.
Thanks, Buddy Lee

I like the substitution of the word intention for the word vision – maybe not as powerful a word but clarity of intention is a good thing – for life not just photography

Hi David. First, I want to thank you so much for your generosity for posting this video and your Within the Frame podcasts, they have been a great help. There was a question I’ve been wanting to ask since I watched the final podcast, but wasn’t exactly sure on how to phrase it. Now with this wonderful video, the same question is still rattling around my head. It deals with your subjects in these situations. At what point do you approach the people? Do you shoot first, and then approach them? Do you approach them first and then shoot? Do you start to shoot and then approach them, and then shoot more? Or do you just shoot and don’t approach them at all. I’m guessing because you are using these people in your videos, that you must have gotten some form of permission/release. And for those shots, say of the old man walking into the shadows never to be seen again, what do you generally do with those shots? Are they kept for your own personal collection, or are they usable in the public domain ie self published books or website.

Again, thank you for everything and have a great time on your trip.

Leigh
