Spyros Papaspyropoulos on a Street Hunt for www.streethunters.net
Introduction
Dear Readers,
This time around instead of writing a blog post about Street Photography, I will show you a video that I recorded. This video is the first official Street Hunters “Street Hunt”! In other words it is just me walking around, talking a lot and shooting photos!
As you will see in the first minute of the video, I have purchased a small Hot Shoe to Tripod adapter or accessory. So, using that thing I have managed to connect my old beat up Flip Camera to the hot shoe of my NEX-6. That way anything my camera sees, the Flip Cam sees and records while I am on the move.
Watching this video you will get a hands on Street Hunt experience as seen through my eyes and processed through my senses. You will see what I decide to photograph, listen for what reasons I take my photos and how my images finally turn up. The photos that have been made during this Street Photography walk are not all high quality photos that I would easily share in Social Media, but they are part of the experience of this Street Hunt so I am sharing them happily with you. Some of these photos, at least two that I can think of, will be shared as photos in future posts of mine for Street Hunters.
One thing I must tell you about this video, is that it is shaky. The Flip Cam doesn’t offer video stability so there are a few parts in the video that might be wobbly. I have already purchased a new action cam with steadyshot to record all future videos with.
NOTE: If the video doesn’t work in the website directly, please visit the Street Hunters YouTube channel to watch.
I enjoyed your video, especially the point to which you have scolded like a sparrow in the tube. Beautiful, to experience the Hunter Street in action, and how he picks his motif.
Thank you very much Klaus! I plan to make even more and better videos in the future. In my next videos I will try and share more tips. Cheers for watching!
Would have loved to have seen the end set up with the flip cam on the camera…. great video..
Thank you very much Gordo! New video about to be published today!
