We are pleased to have Charalampos Kydonakis (aka Dirty Harrry), Rethymnon (Crete) Street Photographer as our #7 featured guest.

We were lucky to have Craig Semetko, Los Angeles Street Photographer as our #4 featured street photographer.
You can check out the interview under “Inspiration” here in this blog. We were also able to get a look at his gear.
For all of you who chuckle at the fact that many street photographers I’ve interviewed use cameras other than a Leica, well laugh no more!
Craig Semetko is clearly a pure Leica man. He uses a Leica M9 for his main camera and his back-up is a Leica M6.

John Goldsmith, Vancouver Street Photographer is our #3 featured street photographer.

John is the first guest who actually carries a camera bag, although he is working on simplifying his photography life. Perhaps when we revisit him next time, he might not have a bag anymore. So let’s enjoy what he carries now.
