6) 「观察身边环境与自身,并不是为个人利益,而是与生俱来的探求,并且是我拍摄的理由与动力。」– Lee Friedlander “I suspect it is for one’s self-interest that one looks at one’ssurroundings and one’s self. This search is personally born and is indeed myreason and motive for making photographs.”
透过街头摄影,人们可以更加了解自己的转变,或许你以前喜欢布列松式作品,着重构图、几何、决定性瞬间;抑或变得喜欢 Bruce Gilden 式,与陌生人正面拍摄 / 冲突 / 实验影像,都会看到你自己的变化。 7)「我喜爱所拍摄的人,他们是我的朋友。虽然我不知道他们是谁,但透过影像我与他们同在。」– Bruce Gilden “I love the people I photograph. I mean, they’re my friends. I’ve nevermet most of them or I don’t know them at all, yet through my images I live withthem.”
虽然很多人讨厌 Bruce Gilden 的硬派街拍风格,但他本人却是很真诚踏实之人,并把自己拍摄的路人,视为自己的朋友,以此方式作为亲近的形态。 8)「摄影是一个很短暂的创作时机,你双眼要注意构图或是情感表现,凭着你的直觉按下快门,这就是摄影师创作的瞬间。当你错过这一瞬间,它就永远消失了。」– Henri Cartier-Bresson “There is a creative fraction of a second when you are taking a picture. Youreye must see a composition or an expression that life itself offers you, andyou must know with intuition when to click the camera. That is the moment thephotographer is creative. Oop! The Moment! Once you miss it, it is goneforever.”
街头摄影师经常追逐「决定性瞬间」,集合本能、直觉、准备、运气与技术的瞬间,而或许准备就是一切的基础及重点,要把相机带在身,要多拍摄、多学习、多观察。
