Respect for this one Fred!! Most people don't even make eye contact with strangers on the subway. Here you are making a whole video hahaha. That takes courage, and the photos were well worth it!

This is wonderful Frederik. Forget about incorporating flash. Your video shows that the best 'equipment' for street photography is openness and empathy. I'm not sure how much they can be learnt but the take-away for me is to embrace the interactions rather than fearing them (easier said than done). You can't capture what you don't love!

I had fallen out of love with photography for many different reasons. Then completely accidentally, I stumbled across a video of you being interviewed - not sure how, as I was looking at New Orleans Jazz music videos at the time - anyhow, there is something about your unassuming approach that had me hooked and this, only the second of your videos I have watched, has been equally rewarding. Thanks for renewing my interest, I might even get my cameras out again.

Well I am way late to this party as you did this video over 2 years ago but I love this and the connection you have with the people in the subway through the shots. I have always loved how people are sort of suspended and put on pause when they rush onto the train.... wait still and almost motionless and then burst into action again as the doors open and they race off. You seem to have captured them so well in that suspended moment. I do not know Bruce Davidson's work and will be investigating more. Thank you for doing this video and the others in the 'Take Photos Like' series. I am loving the inspiration I am getting from them.

Excellent video, I'm a Mexico City citizen, and let me tell you something, it's actually impressive how they let you take pictures inside the subway. Police guards from the subway here in Mexico City can be really aggressive if they see you holding a camera, or a camcorder. I remember this one time I was in the subway, I was testing a 50mm lens I had bought for my DSLR, I wasn't even taking pictures, I was just mounting the lens to my DSLR body, in a matter of seconds a police guard noticed me holding the camera, all of a sudden there were 2 of them, they told me that any kind of photography was forbidden inside the subway, and they asked me to delete every picture I had taken, I told them I wasn't taking pictures, my camera didn't even have an SD card inside. They let me go at the end, but it clearly seemed they were actually annoyed.

It is equal to the Chilean subway, same cars, same stations, same lighting (maybe a little better illuminated) But here in Chile they do not let you take photos in the subway, you have to do it in secret or escaping from the guards that many times, are more annoying than thieves.
