Busy working my way through the back-episodes of the pod, which I'm enjoying very much, and just discovered the YT channel too! Jim's work is so important and so well told here. Most of us are only a serious accident, a long-term illness or a financial disaster away from being marginalised, institutionalised and neglected as these good people are that Jim has so respectfully introduced us to. Looking forward to Jim's second book when it's released. Hoping for kinder times for all.
Thanks you Jørgen. He remains one of my favourite documentary eyes, not just for his photographs, but for his involvement in the subject, physically and personally.
I've watched many of your videos in the last few days. The way you tell(narrate, if you will), and allow others to tell their stories. What a fantastic thing.
Superb documentary, great subject and handled with compassion. Jim photographs with respect and humility because he is also a carer, one of the thousands of unsung hero’s
Thanks Greg, I'm thrilled, truly, that you like them. Jim is a super photographer. It took me a little while to convince him to do this, but I'm so glad he did. Would love to go back and make a podcast with him.
@@photowalk.podcast I am genuinely staggered that this has 61 likes and maybe that's why you changed your content? I would get up early, go to bed late and pack the kids off to bed just to have the privilege of watching this, but please stop making me blub.
@@gregstevenson7401 Blub? Oh you mean the funeral film? I haven't consciously changed as such, it's just that I don't have the time to make as many of the interview style ones as I'd like. I certainly intend to do more though.
Thought provocking documentary. After watching this for the first time a few months ago i bought his book 'Small Town Inertia'. The Side Gallery in Newcastle will be showing the photos in an exhibition very soon, an important collection to show. Thanks for taking the time to document it.
Thanks Sue. I am, and you have made me feel a tad guilty here, yet to go to one of Jim's exhibitions. Small Town Inertia is such an inspiring project and I was delighted he said yes to this film.
Yet again, superbly done with incredibly moving images. The sign of a good photographic documentary, for me, is if it inspires my own photography. Love watching these during my lunch. Now a subscriber too.
Thanks again for the thoughtful comment. It's a real mixed bunch on here... personal films, wedding stuff, and docs like this. More in the pipeline, bear with the eclectic nature of the channel! :-)
You are producing some excellent work which to me is very emotional and honest.Here you have the photographers story interlaced with the subjects story and enhanced by your own audio additions.I have come into contact with you from your podcast on Steve Shipman another fine but tragic piece.Great Doc work.I'm not really qualified to critique anything but this is superb work.(I think i watch more camera reviews than required lol).Regards KH.
Fine story. Fine imagery! But... that music becomes very irritating and is masking part of the narrative and that story being told is far more important. Just my 2 Cts...
As a director and editor of documentaries myself I would take the level of that piano down if there is narration (more balanced with it), if that music is found necessary at all, to get at least the focus more on the narration. Nice series! Keep it up.

This is so real, so honest, true photography with empathy
He John, is quite the photographer, with empathy for those he photographs.
I appreciate how beautifully you put this together, with great respect, sensitivity and showing the feelings of Jim and those he photographs.
Thank you Caitlin. Appreciate your comment and thoughts. Jim is an incredible craftsman behind a lens.
Brilliant docu!

"A plumber doesn't need a medal for fixing the sink well." What a humble, inspiring man.
Now THAT Will, I agree with. I feel privileged to have interviewed him. Thanks for dropping by, appreciate it.

Thanks Jake, that's very kind of you to say. Meeting these photographers is enough for me to simply want to listen!
Superb documentary, great subject and handled with compassion. Jim photographs with respect and humility because he is also a carer, one of the thousands of unsung hero’s
You've hit the nail on the head here. This is exactly why his work is so strong.
Quite simply the best series on RUclips. Yet another fascinating and humbling interview. Brilliant.

This was incredible. Thank you
Thanks for drawing our attention to this Neale.

Thanks Rocky. He is quite the artist!
Mr. Today youtube recommends one of your videos, and are truly amazing, thanks for sharing
Very kind, thanks for the comment.

Stunning Documentary Photography
Hi Neale, recently came across your channel and really loving it! Great story telling!
Thanks you Dylan. Kind of you to drop by and comment. Neale

Hi. I'm up late editing, so saw this come through. Thank you for such a considered comment. Hope we cross paths more often.
Lovely Neale
Very interesting indeed.

Thanks for the feedback Hans, taken on board.
