Thanks for mentioning Fred Herzog. I wasn’t familiar with him. I walked through my little village today looking for color. I don’t think it’s there anymore. Signs are regulated, small and bland. People dress in blues and browns. Buildings are neutral colors.

Herzog, a TRUE Master

And if you had been around Vancouver in the 1970s and later, you could have attended his slide shows - usually in places like publicly accessible halls - where for a small admission charge he would project his work for your enjoyment.
The work you see now displays a skewed version of his total work. He travelled widely, and the slide shows featured much more than the street photography we now see.
For his day job, he worked as a photographer and technician at the University of British Columbia.

I see Herzog says he shot from the hip without raising his camera. Anybody know what camera he used? I’d guess a rangefinder from that, but Could certainly be wrong.

Not sure what he used back in the day, but he is shooting with a Canon Sure Shot WP-1 in this video. Interesting choice.

He also talks about shooting from the hip...
