I challenge Eric to come and do street photography in the Czech Republic. People here are assholes, they’re mean and they HATE tourists, photographers and attention. You take their picture and they start shouting and chasing you, trying to make you delete the picture. If somebody asks me nicely, I may delete the picture unless I like it a lot, if they bitch, see your face on Razzi.

This video was going well until they changed dress and resorted to buffonry. Still watching though.

As photographers I don’t think they oped their eyes up enough to what was around them and the photographic opportunities that where present. Mucking around can be really good in some situations but can also be distracting. I understand the entertainment factor but I felt it unnecessary. I just feel the show should focus more on true photography and discussing what you’ve captured, that kind of thing. It also would have been nice to see a bit more variety in both subject and technique.

top modern photographer?? Are you kidding me? He picked up a camera a couple of years ago and you think he is one of the top photographers? Wow! He is a good sales person and he is selling a concept and people are stupid enough to buy it. What kind of people takes workshops in street photography? Serious? He is a good sales person, and as many people he can snap some pictures now and then…but nothing more. I have been shooting street photography longer than he have lived!

Kai is a talented photographer, Eric is just a film and megapixel snapper, that shoots down everything that moves…

Eric Kim is a twat. He was clearly trying to impress by getting right up in people’s space in this video. “I’m on digi rev, better out-do Kai in the bravery stakes” … asshole. He is also incredibly annoying, cannot stand him, don’t give a shit who likes him either.

according to your (cretinous) logic, i can also say (just for you to understand, i’ll be using your retarded line of thought):
unless your father loves to suck a lot of cock, you surely do act like a faggot.

what an annoying little fuckface that eric is.
ZERO talent, “photography” that ANYONE can do by just beeing an asshole and shoot people in the face. No concept behind it, no intricate composition, no message whatsoever, just plain shitty meaningless snapshots.
Don’t tell that that’s “documenting the street” because there is much more behind that idea.
Fuck that bitch, and DigitalRevCom in this case too for paying attention and promoting useless crap like him.

Hello there, have you heard of “photo SFX art” (do a Google search for it)? There you will find a good free video demonstrating how you can make awesome pictures. It helped Matt to create photographs that have that wow-effect after you look at them. I hope it will help you too.
