About Me and My Photography Experience:: Freelance Photographer.

If you can smell the street by looking at the photo, it's a street photograph Bruce Gilden

Photojournalist currently based on Mexico City. Born in Rome (Italy) in 1975, essentially a Street Photographer.
He was introduced to photography in the analog era, but things got serious in the digital age. Now he applies the philosophy and approach of analog to his digital shots.
His style is marked by raw street photography images with the obsession of the decisive moment, but always with a documentary eye.
In Mexico is involved with a large personal project called “Mexicans” tended to describe the Mexican man in daily life.

Strong advocate of sharing photographic knowledge he has published several books on photographic technique and culture and he’s giving street photography workshops.

Alex Coghe replied to Amy Wingfield's discussion 'Starter lenses?' in the group Canon User Group

35mm or 50mm. Primary lens. Quality, speed, an investment for the future. The fact that it is a fixed lens is an advantage also for a beginner: it forces you to focus on the composition. In addition your rebel becomes lighter.

Cheers from New Orleans, Kristin

At 9:45am on November 30, 2009, Licia Gaia Sortino said…: ciao, allora, in nome del tricolore, ne approfitto e ti scrivo in italiano!! se ne hai voglia, dai un'occhiata alle foto del mio sito, così poi mi dai un parere, sono ben accetti tutti i giudizi, positivi e non! grazie. ciao.
P.S. quando sono andata in Messico ancora non ero abbastanza appassionata in materia di fotografia, ma ripensandoci adesso, Mexico City sarebbe stato davvero un bel soggetto, dall'aeroporto in mezzo alle favelas alla cattedrale!!

At 1:28pm on November 29, 2009, Przemek Stachura said…: hi..Thank you for adding me to your list. like your pics. I'm hope you will show us some photos from mexico city soon. can't wait. I can imagine it is a great place for street photography.

At 8:46am on November 28, 2009, ed wuelph said…: Hello Alessio.
I was there a few years ago for a few days to do some sightseeing, so can't tell you which areas to stay away from. But my opinion it is not dangerous to photogragh street scenes.... it may not be a good idea at night, or in certain areas where you may be isolated, same as any big city.

Take care with your camera/gear is what I would advise you. Carry your backpack strapped to your chest rather than on your back wherever you go, especially on the subway and in crowded busy situations...... and don't plan to do too much of anything your first day because of the altitude. Take some aspirin to help your head adjust to the altitude, and eat some yogurt to help your gut adjust to the foods... have a great time!!

At 5:47am on November 28, 2009, ed wuelph said…: Mexico DF is in an amazing city.... very active and crowded with people/vehicles. Have you been before??

At 10:01pm on November 27, 2009, Earl E. Gibson said…: Hello Alessio and Welcome to PictureSocial. Hope you find it an enjoyable place that you can learn and maybe teach others. We do have a wide range of User Groups. If you are interested, you can find them under the "Groups" tab at the top of the page. Hope to see you there.

At 7:39am on November 27, 2009, ed wuelph said…: you have taken some very good street photos and it is interesting to notice so much graffiti in your city. It is not somthing I see much of... thanks for sharing!!

CONTEST STREET PHOTOGRAPHY

Posted on February 9, 2010 at 11:31pm 0 Comments 0 Likes

SPC ha in atto un contest, ovviamente non poteva che essere sulla street photography, genere in cui la community è specializzata. Penso che faccia piacere riportarlo anche in questa community e che non dia fastidio la sua pubblicazione in questa sezione:

Dunque eccoci al primo contest di SPC. Abbiamo deciso di non tenere conto ancora delle vostre indicazioni per questo primo contest perchè le risposte e i voti pervenuti sono ancora troppo pochi ma è giunto il momento di partire coi… Continue

Thanks for the comments. This is the Ten Thousand Buddhas Monastery (Man Fat Sze), there are so many statues, I can not remember against which wall this one was taken or what is the meaning of the sign. Well worth the climb of 431 steps…
