Omg, amazing video! I'm pretty stocked to be featured. Thank you!

[@RainmakerAnton]

Love these breakdowns of what you both find appealing in a photo.

[@frame-lines]

Glad to hear that Anton ❤️

The thing I love about Tim Baker's photo, is that the left-hand section looks like it's just the same window, but actually it's a mirror, and you're seeing what's over your right shoulder. It's a very clever composition.

[@frame-lines]

Oh wow yes ok - don’t think we realised, super clever

Fantastic ep lads. Myself and girlfriend are two wedding photographers. I’ve introduced her to you guys and framelines. Just ordered our first mag earlier. No.8. And we are keen to join in with these assignments. 🤘

Excellent video guys, loved watching it. Allow me to give my opinion on the subject: Like we (and that is we as photography enthusiasts) always do is look back on those few photographers of the past that made a point in street photography. I stopped doing that cause what I see in your video (and work from others in other good videos) the nowadays street photographers are easily on par with those ancient photographers. Like your said with that photo of Steve Gengler (well done Steve) it is something you never ever have seen . The Dinos are dead, long live the new ones ! Thanks for sharing, keep up the good work, your channel is among the best of the best.

[@frame-lines]

Wow love this comment - it means a lot, thank you ❤️ and yes that shot from Steve is something else

Great video guys. @Shane Does the red balloon photo remind you of the Polaroid "Woman on Street" by Jan Hnizdo?

[@miam1074]

many of the images I would not call 'abstract'

[@Jonacci]

If i take a photograph that is in black and white, it’s already an abstraction. A photograph in itself is an abstraction a simplification of the world. So this easily boils down to only some sort of “abstract” aesthetic just for the sake of it. Im not saying it’s wrong…but i think this could be delved more deeply into…example why the abtract movement came about in art history. Like where is the line? What truly is abstract.
