Is street photography creepy?

[gsgary]

Exclusive often has more to do with who you know than what you are capable of. I won't say that's the case about this Magnum thingy. Never heard of it but if the shots that were showed in that video are an example of the type of work that Magnum finds exceptional, I wouldn't give much credit to their 'excusiveness' equaling quality.

Just my .02

If this is what some of you consider 'good' street photography and an example of someone not being a creep, it's no wonder we seem to disagree.

IMO, nothing more than a rude, creepy guy taking snapshots.

He's that bad he was invited to join one of the most exclusive photography agency in the world

Your into photography and never heard of Magnum

I had never heard of it either, but then again I'm interested in actual photography and not the rest of the unimportant dribble...

Yea i know it all mate. I know all about Magnum and the day (lunch) it was founded. Question is DO YOU?

Standards may have declined but i think also the relevance of Magnum. I like viewing their archives but there's this 'coat tails' vibe to it nowadays. Like a rock band that doesn't contain any of the founding musicians and is just cashing a brand. Magnum was Capa, a generation or so after and that was that.

I just lost a TON of respect for the Magnum organization....I had no idea they were taking juicebags in...it's almost inconceivable to me that that guy is a Magnum photographer, but then again, standards have gotten lower over the years...really? He is with Magnum???? zOMG....they better go after Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears next-- because I have heard that each of them can handle a camera,and by that I mean point it forward,away from their face, and mash the shutter button...

Magnum was not just Capa there were 3 others or don't you know their names
