Any father would love to be remembered and celebrated in the spirit you bring to his memory.

[@paulreidphotography]

Thanks so much mate! I really do always appreciate your kind words here and on instagram

[@brentmiller3250]

First time viewer her … please let me extend my sincere sympathy. My God grant you comfort.

[@asadlier]

Without even seeing even a minute of this video I felt your love for your Dad. May he rest in peace. And he will stay alive, in your photograpy. Stay strong. Lots of love.

[@bobjarman4508]

Sorry for your loss Paul. This set of images is a great tribute to your dad. To me, one of the best sets you have posted.

[@paulreidphotography]

Thanks so much!!!! I appreciate it

[@GrenvilleMelonseedSkiff496]

Very sorry to learn of your loss … losing a parent is about as tough as it gets. You’ve honoured the memory of him with this fine video and photos. Hold fast!

[@paulreidphotography]

Thanks so much! I really appreciate your kind words.

[@stevenelson5160]

Understand what you mean by photography being therapeutic. It is for me as well. Glad to see you are celebrating his memory and at the same time I am sorry for your loss. I am sure he would be proud of the images you are creating. Thank you for sharing these with the world.

[@paulreidphotography]

Thanks so much! I really appreciate your kind words.

[@marcp.1752]

Sorry for your fathers loss, Paul. I've lost my father into 2021...but it's lovely, that you've had a father with photography background. I am self-taught, since i was a kid, shooting Film since 84.

[@paulreidphotography]

Amazing!! I went digital before a return to film recently. I aim to shoot a lot more

[@marcp.1752]

@@paulreidphotography So do i. Film gives me freedom, not to chimp with anything digital via LCD display, shows you down, motivates you quite more than digital...and is by all means, more emotional, and a haptic medium. You do worry worlds more about your composition, about the quality of light...than with digital - because every frame counts, every frame costs. It's too precious, to waste.

[@iaincphotography6051]

That is a belting shot of your Dad, put a copy of it up and every time you pass it give him a smile. Enjoying your work, take care.

[@paulreidphotography]

Thanks so much!! That was a shot from the film days! First time round.

[@deb2936]

The lessons learned from a father continue to shape us even after he's gone. Fathers often teach valuable life lessons about resilience, integrity, and compassion. These teachings become a part of who we are and guide us through the challenges we face. You, dear Paul, are the reason I purchased a Leica Q2 Monochrom. These moments serve as reminders to continue spreading kindness and making a positive impact wherever you go.

[@paulreidphotography]

Thanks so much for your very wise words! And thanks for your kindness. I’m so glad that you are enjoying the Q2 Monochrom! And thanks for watching the videos

[@robinbhairam7508]

Sorry for your loss Paul, very sad for you. I spent 30 years in a high octane, high pressured job. A few years after retirement I still couldn’t fully switch off, so I took up photography as a hobby to decompress from the traumas I had witnessed. I now nearly always have a camera with me and I get so much joy, calm, and reflective time when I’m snapping … Best wishes mate … hope you find some peace and comfort soon … 😊 📷

[@paulreidphotography]

Thanks so much for your very kind words and I’m glad you use photography in this way

[@x100ed]

What a lovely video. I am so sorry for your loss Paul, and I hope that you continue to heal, you spoke so lovingly about your dad, I know that he will be missed.

You honor your father in the beautiful photography you produce, Paul.

[@paulreidphotography]

Thanks so much for your kind words and I always appreciate your comments

[@lensman5762]

So sorry for your loss. There is absolutely no need for an apology. Photography helped me through the Covid and in its aftermath. Although I was working, the strange shift patterns, very long hours even during Saturdays and Sundays were difficult. Not being able to see my granddaughter was the worst part. You take care.

[@paulreidphotography]

Thanks so much! Yeah my dad went into a care home right before Covid and the separation really pushed him over the edge. He was never right since. He’s free now though.

[@vincentj3093]

Sorry for your loss. I lost both of my parents so I feel for you.This is the first time seeing one of your videos. Your work is outstanding. I’m 67 and still taking photos. B&W is my favorite. My daughter is a high school photography teacher so I usually have her critique my work. I have several cameras and all are digital. Always loved film and it took me awhile to switch over to digital. I have Covid again for the 3rd time since 2020 so I’ll have plenty of free time to watch your videos. Thank you.

[@peetje28021970]

Take care Paul, losing your dad as a man is a hard thing to experience. Keep celebrating the photography.

I’m old film guy from the 70’s but as most, I’ve put it aside for digital. I forgot how beautiful the tonal quality is on film compared to digital conversions. I may have to run a few rolls through my old Nikkormat. Thank you and my condolences.

[@paulreidphotography]

Thanks so much!! I do love film a lot! It’s very exciting for me even though this is the second time round with film.

[@midisax]

Very sorry for your loss. My father and older brother got me into photography. They are both gone now, but my photography lives on.

[@MrSimonj1970]

I used to shoot Tri-X for years, and always deved it in D76 - these look like a different film altogether! Very nice tones and noticeably finer grain. Good stuff! Sorry about your dad.

[@paulreidphotography]

Thanks so much! Yeah I was surprised how good tri x looks

[@jimrinaldi8357]

Paul, I am sorry for for the loss of your father. Mine has been gone over 20 years now and I still feel the lessons that he taught me. You never totally get over the loss, but as you say, you celebrate the life and it brings happiness. Back in the day, I shot a lot of Tri-X and used Rodinal, but never in the way you described. Now that I live in this digital age, I am rediscovering black and white and quite like the effects that I can get in Lightroom. Photography is a great therapy and I use it for that when I am feeling down or have issues. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences in this way. I m not into street photography myself but I enjoy images such as yours that carry a message or a feeling. It is refreshing to see the lessons of photography and what it can do for us, rather than just more stuff about equipment. Thank you from a new subscriber.

[@thatcreole9913]

Heart goes out to you Paul. Take your time.

[@paulreidphotography]

Thanks so much!!

[@burneshollyman2621]

I am sorry for your loss but he must have been proud. He (and your mother) did great work. Your interactive street portrait approach (vs. shooting people from behind and sneaking and shooting superficial "street" pictures) has totally revolutionized how I take pictures. This last weekend I made some amazing images and friendships with my subject using your technique. You are a beautiful human being and an amazing photographer. Your father left a deep and very rich legacy in an amazing human being. Well done Dad!

[@paulreidphotography]

Thanks so much for your very kind words. It means a lot. I’m so glad you are enjoying the approach to street photography and enjoying the interactions.

[@shaddring]

Great job Paul. John Fielder was always my favorite landscape photographer. You are my favorite people/street photographer. So sorry about the loss of your dad. Hang in there! Glad you kept taking pictures.

My thoughts are with you , I lost my son 27 years ago he was my inspiration but I still can’t hack it . I love monochrome but cannot get out. So very happy to see your images and listen to your views thank you.

[@paulreidphotography]

I’m so sorry to hear this!! If I lost one of my children it would be much worse than a father. All I can do is send love your way and pray for you. Try to use your love for monochrome as much as you can.

[@paulreidphotography]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching

[@phdman2014]

God bless you. I’m so sorry for your loss. I’ll keep you in my prayers. One of the reasons I fell in love with photography is how calming it is for me. It’s just me, my camera, and the composition, and everything else just fades away for a bit. It is very therapeutic, which helps me to be a better me.

[@paulreidphotography]

That’s fantastic!! I’m so glad you also find photography a source of calm!!

[@chrisloomis1489]

Paul : this is very good , your a blessing , share and live smile laugh , and at times weep ... but remember : Smile for Da'd , he lives in your eyes ... in every photograph . Also : I shared this video with my Elder brother , our Dad only had an ARGUS when we were little, raising children costs money so he only had his reliable ARGUS , that flew in B - 29 Bombers .. in KOREA with him.

Dear Paul, my deepest condolences! It will always be the case that real processing can only be achieved with ourselves. Retreating and unplugging for a certain amount of time is healing and important. However, I'm really happy to see you and your photography doing well here. Thank you very much for this sentimental, soulful, and extremely important video! We should all know which therapy is right for us. Photography can reconcile us with ourselves from yesterday to tomorrow. Isn't that wonderful...!? Take care of yourself, and may the good forces be with you! Best regards, Dirk

[@jaxytvids]

Great images, Paul. My dad passed away unexpectedly in '92. I still remember everything about the morning I got the call. As others have said, I think you're definitely a living legacy. I totally relate to the therapy part as well. After 22 years, I left my job to start a new one. I wish I could say it was a good decision. This job is more stress than I've ever dealt with and it's the only job that's made me physically ill just thinking of the next workday. I live for the weekends just because I know I can take my camera out. It's the only time I never think about work and it's probably saved me more than I know.

[@paulreidphotography]

Thanks so much!!! And thanks for sharing your situation! I hope a door opens for you that means no more stress!!

Condolences for your loss Paul. You've done the man proud. Like you my dad introduced me to photography when I was an early teen, that day to this and til the day I checkout it's all I've ever wanted to do. Photography is my lifelong passion it's my day job in newspapers, my hobby, my go too when I'm down and my go to when I'm up, nothing else excites me like having a camera in hand, obviously if Amanda Holden gives me a bell that would probably excite me a tad too, but only if I could take pictures of the date etc. . Photography is the greatest gift dad ever gave to me, I love him to bits. The lads is 82 in September he still enjoys getting out with a camera. Lovely shots Paul as always. Best wishes to you and yours mate. RIP to your dad.

[@el0blaino]

Terribly sorry to hear about your father, Paul. Wishing you strength and warmth. I very much appreciate your reminder to take your time - I tend to rush so many good moments in life, only afterwards realizing that it's my own anxiety that the other person couldn't possibly be alright with me doing whatever it is I was doing ... it's fine to be mindful of others' time, but too much of that voice and it's really more about self-doubt and such, in my case anyway. Your images are lovely as always. That first series of the woman with the beret and her companion with the fedora was incredible. I particularly enjoyed where the two of them are diagonally posed. Such rich light! Likewise for those straight-on portraits from your workshops. These are the sort of pictures that mystify me - it's the same earth with the same sun and so on, yet here you are able to capture these wonderfully portraits! I can't reliably get anything like that degree of depth and richness - mine are fine and all but they often have a bit of a flat quality. But you've inspired me to try to figure out how to trick light into working more in my favor. Wish I were in Scotland and able to join one of your workshops. I spent a few months there many years ago and if I ever make it back perhaps I'll have the pleasure. Until that time, looking forward to your next video.

[@b.slocumb7763]

Gorgeous rich blacks in those pics! I wonder how different photos might turn out if you used the same film and process but took the photos in a bright sunny place (like the desert southwest of the US). I always got great photos when I lived in Boston, MA, but haven’t done enough black and white in New Mexico to see if I can tackle the sharp contrast of the sun and shadows. Color film comes out nicely, but black and white will always be my favorite. And I have recently amassed a big collection of vintage cameras that I need to test out, so need to get back outside and get to it!

[@paulreidphotography]

Film in itself has therapeutic qualities I think. Thanks so much!! I hope you have success with your film photography
