I have to say that watching this video on Eric Kim and it always makes me think of why street photography is so underrated. It's quite inspirational seeing him get right in the face of most people, and grabbing a capture that might be the one he is looking for.
Quite inspirational.

Spray and Pray....... Here we go again folks...
Came across this today on www.cnet.com.au, then found that it was making a lot of trips around on other photographers, and photograph bloggers websites and twitter feeds..
I have only recently picked the camera back up with the imagination and dedication to resume, or maybe recreate, a life behind the lens. The idea of setting my DSLR in a Program mode and rattling off images with flaming abandon, just fills my with terror.
So I say to "The System" and to it's creator David Jay, there is a MASSIVE difference in opinion in what we do and how it should be taught SIR. Getting people to understand their camera and getting them off those Program Modes is more important than shooting 3-4K at a friends wedding or party and hoping for a couple of good shots.
