The Best Way To Get Assaulted With Street Photography

Recently Petapixel featured a rather amusing video of photographer Fabio Pires out of London. Fabio is a street photographer who shoots spontaneous photos off the cuff. Unlike the video we featured of Clay Enos's street setup, Fabio's approach is more in your face, candid, and potentially more risky. In Fabio's opinion, the best shots come from strange and interesting people who aren't expecting to have their photo taken. I dunno, maybe in England this isn't frowned upon as much as it is in the United States?

can still watch it here http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMzAyMDYzNTY4.html it's viewable in the UK

Weird how you guys in the USA can't see it on the China site, I'm in Mexico and can see it without any problems. 

Mr Pires seriously needs to change his career path away from photography.

I don't like his style if you can even call it a style of photography? :S

If he scared me putting his D90 up in my face when I'm coming around the corner he can get a punch in the face as a reaction.

Not sure if this is the same video. This works for those of us in the US

Aside from the fact that it's just overtly intrusive, aggressive, and completely devoid of subtlety or finesse, the end product is just complete and utter sh*t.

Jessops have a lot to answer for, putting cameras in the hands of cretins.

haha

+1 that!
