“That guy was tryna sell me his bike” 😂🤣 for some reason sounded like the opening narration of Spider-Man 3. Great set!

[@FaizalWestcott]

Hahaha thank you bro!

[@KenanConvey]

I thought the same exact thing hahah

[@KenanConvey]

@@FaizalWestcott some real Peter Parker energy here, faizal

[@WaitAMinute1989]

Wasn't his bike to sell.

[@frame-lines]

Enjoyed this a lot with the voice over Faizal - the lomography looks lovely too.

[@FaizalWestcott]

Thanks guys! 🙏🏼

[@Wisconsin.pikachu]

I'm left eye dominant but right handed because a teacher forced me to change as a kid. I had to learn to use my right eye more when I was learning gun and archery safety when i was young. Now I keep both eyes open when I'm doing photography and can change focus from one eye to the other pretty easy

[@checkmybadself]

Great vid. I enjoy the POV style with speaking over the top explaining what you see and what worked / didn’t work.

[@FaizalWestcott]

Thanks man! I'll keep the voice overs coming

[@alexowain]

@5:30 is a nice shot, you talk about being reluctant to take these behind the back shots. Your picture makes me think of the Revenant and that third person video game perspective it uses so well. Also the back of the mans head gives away so much information - also no mask! :) Good stuff, thanks for this.

[@NathanMaid]

real ones saw the first upload

[@AbhishekSingh-is6vo]

I came here to see a new video but ended up re watching this.

[@TheArgentavis]

Your videos make me see the world differently every time I step outside. ❤️

[@arcadearcaid765]

Incredibly inspiring, beautiful and vocal. First time seeing vid randomly looking up a documentary on 35mm street photography. Messing with an Argus C4 right now. Looking forward to seeing more of your photos. Thank you.

[@luisabandos]

I never thought about this but I also look through the view finder with my left eye

[@alejolancioni7427]

06:05 for me, this is the best one

[@jaycasejaycase]

Love the result of lomo400. Recently grabbed a few rolls n this vid has me stoked to go out & shoot with it now. Salute homie!

[@FaizalWestcott]

Thanks! I need to try 800 next.

[@DaveMontejano]

Saw the first upload and I’m here to watch it all over again.

[@nd2170]

I said this before and I'll probaby say it everytime you upload a video you are such an inspiration, you make me wanna go out and shoot some street photos with my fuji x100f, I even switched from canon to fujifilm because of you. Looking forward to seeing more POVs and keep up the amazing work 🙏🏻❤❤❤❤

[@FaizalWestcott]

Wow thank you! I'm glad you get so much out of these videos!!

[@zBalistiqRain]

Street photography is such a great hobby!!

[@BassLightZ]

Faizal, I love watching what you do! All of your videosj is making me want to go out and shoot some photo! Keep it up mate!

[@jeffreyfletcher1780]

Teddy Bear: "Were you trying to take a photo of me?"

[@vicdu1995]

I love your pictures so much, there's always something to notice in them. I'm so sad you don't get as much hype as some of these other YT photographers that take generic portrait/landscape pictures and get millions of followers

[@emphoenixcat1110]

I just realized that it may take me longer to focus the camera because I’m left eye dominant, but I always look through the viewfinder with my right 😅

[@julienchampagne409]

That would be great if you gives us some info about the settings of your camera regarding the film you're currently shooting with

[@dolcepeter]

Your voice is like Xanax for me :) thanks for being so chill. Talented and a great teacher... but chill

[@outdooradventures4337]

How did you set up the sharpness so fast? Love your pictures.

[@perry.normal]

Its funny -- yesterday I met up with a friend for some street photos in Cincinnati. We were standing on some of the busier corners, taking shots as people walked by, and talking youtube channels. Your channel came up as one of our favorites. Later we were talking Fuji's x-pro/x100 range style cameras and he complained he doesn't like them as much as his XT2 because he is left-eye dominant -- and I had no idea that was even a thing.

[@riahstevenson5476]

I absolutely love your work Faizel! Great video as always. Also love the James link ups lol

[@weliveyou]

faaaaak the upside down metro reflection shots are so cool !!

[@BarrettBaker_photos]

So chill! So relaxing! Thanks for this man :-)

[@_ped_]

did you shoot 100% manual, or did you use AE sometimes? that's one thing I find interesting about the CLE!

[@AlanExtinct]

sorry I have a question, since that film photos resolution should be higher than your video resolution 1920*1080. Have you meet a situation that the film photos are losing quality after exporting the video? or do you have some recommendation of putting film photos in video and not losing its quality? Thanks in advanced!!!

[@dont-want-no-wrench]

always interesting things to see in nyc

[@BennyCFD]

What distance did you have your focus set at so you could point and shoot.................

[@plaggnis69]

What’s a good shutter speed for street photography ?

[@jonkone5608]

Wow that picture at 6:05 was🔥🔥☄️

[@shafiraa432]

your picts are amazing! so glad i found your channel :)

[@fallcoz]

which digital camera is most similar to 35mm for street?

[@감자우-o8x]

Hi there. How could u solve the private issue when u shot at the street?? It’s gonna make some big trouble in my side. TQ.

[@irise_flow]

The green tones go very well with the city mood. Has a vintage vibe. Thanks for still being nice with that guy, bet someone has made fun of his looks before. It's though man.

[@SunnyNatividad]

This brings back memories. Have you visited the Little Island?

[@Havenotats]

LOL "really tried to send it for this photo" 9:20 I know what you mean hahahaha getting really close to people without a 50mm feels kinda hard but its always worth it nice vid Faizal

[@michaelcwlee]

Really like this video, been considering getting a CLE. What apertures do you normally work with for these kinds of street shots?

[@josesitomal]

The girl with the flowers is awesome

[@gungplays8536]

i love watch your video, so satisfying. im 35mm photography enthusiast from makassar, indonesia

[@TheBo5Bo]

What shutter speed was being used with these?

[@zBalistiqRain]

This lomography film looks really great! Kinda fujifilm like with the greenish blacks in my opinion.

[@nicolasmalmsten457]

I loved this video, very inspiring! You just got a new subscriber 😊🇸🇪

[@anthonycvitkovic9866]

It's not a big deal being left eye dominate but I always get judged for how I use my range finder so it's cool to see somebody left eye dominate too

[@randyandreas2744]

More film street photography please!

[@FaizalWestcott]

Noted!!

[@lenaschulz6937]

I looove your photographs!! All the stories those people could tell ✨ Greetings from Germany 🌞

[@hannahargyle5086]

If people do get upset at their picture being taken, how do you respond to their comments?

[@sosaadisfying]

straight fire content

[@jeremyrowlettmedia]

Great POV video! What aperture are mostly using?

[@checkmybadself]

Random question but if you are left eye dominant, does that mean you’re also left handed or are the two things not connected? Have you tried shooting it upside down looking through the OVF with your left eye? Might look a bit strange!

[@FaizalWestcott]

I'm right handed! It's weird

[@spyratekodaks7494]

Why did you remove the dome of the light meter at the start of the video?

[@FaizalWestcott]

The dome is for diffusing light. Usually used for when you're reading direct light coming from behind

[@firstnamelastname9955]

I thought the dome was always used for incident metering and would be removed for reflective? I have a different model of Sekonic light meter and to switch between incident and reflective metering you just push/pull a little plastic dome piece.

[@FaizalWestcott]

@@firstnamelastname9955 you're right, when you point away (reflective) you remove the dome and aim where light is hitting. I guess I always thought the dome was to diffuse the light when doing incident metering

[@Workflow3500]

6:05 is so satisfying :D

[@awadramy1]

Do u manually have to focus? I hope this is not a stupid question lol

[@pauladial3304]

Enjoyed the discussion about being left eye dominant. A lot of musicians and artists are left eye dominant. I am and I’m a pianist, and yes, you can use a rangefinder if you are 🎶😎🎹.

[@KillerTacos54]

Fantastic video mate!

[@hipsterimagestudios6349]

Your buddy shooting on the same body I use! Where my Nikon Fe fam at?

[@andreamorlote]

My left eye is the dominant eye too! I do use the viewfinder but I can relate a lot hahaha

[@DomCaligan]

Reflection shot by the station still the best the second time 😅 why the reupload?

[@karolphotogr]

9:39 you should pay more attention during taking this picture to the dead body covered in flower on the screen. Like this lady, because of flowers in her bag, has something to do with the death... Have you actually realized that scene or it was luck? If those two things were connected in one motive it would be picture of the year. Pay more attention ❤

[@whosyourbrad]

Love it 🔥🔥

[@behradkhezri5230]

what is his camera?

[@KSCasareo]

I'm left eye dominant! But i dont know how that really changes things...

[@marcoserivas]

It's funny that nobody talks about being left eyed dominant, but it's good to know it's more common then I think!

[@camjetspeed]

What song did you use?

[@magazine8731]

Where is the gopro? on your head? or shoulder?

[@FaizalWestcott]

chest

[@bioinfo3]

What exactly does 35mm mean? What is it a measurement of?

[@streetframes413]

Love this bro. I gotta go out and shoot more & upload my next video

[@theblackmanarmedwithacamera]

@12:25 I WOULD'VE BEEN RIGHT UP CLOSE N PERSONAL WITH THAT SHOT! THAT WAS THE BANGER SHOT FOR SURE!! DOPE VIDEO THO...I SUBBED AND I'LL STICK AROUND FOR SOME MORE!👊🏾

[@normandong4479]

Your photos with Lomo 400 color are very sharp with good contrast. You said it was slightly cooler than Kodak Portra 400, but it is hard to tell the difference. If Lomo 400 sells for less, then I would think this is a very good choice. Sometimes a more intimate neighborhood where the buildings and doorways are humanly scaled, such as an older building, can give us more interesting photos of people. Cafes, coffee shops and neighborhood hangouts. Lomo 400 is a nice surprise.

[@joe_tographer]

Needed this today bless up

Cool video.. Greetings from Egypt 🇪🇬

[@judylindo6874]

Who was the person you were walking with, he looks familiar?

[@Christopherwhitefox]

Where that guy confronted you I feel like there’s always like an odd person or group of people hanging by that subway station.

[@FaizalWestcott]

Yeahhh, I had that sense too but it's such a good spot

[@taylorstep1413]

They sell "stuff"

i hate taking pictures of people who have their mask on. For me its a wasted shot. I want to see people's faces and emotions

[@sandybeach18]

The amount of people wearing masks 😢

[@kevinl.3826]

@@inner_systems those photos of people having masks on in a few years will probably be the most iconic photo of New York during pandemic. You just hate them now because you live in this era.

[@1kennylo]

3:55 smh

[@nathanielvelez6678]

I noticed the guy wearing a blue stripe shirt and the guy wearing black hooded jacket, looks like some business is going on.
