    I've learned so much just from watching and listening to Reuben Radding and John Free. Both their approaches to being better photographers is to steeped in first trying to better yourself as a human being and observer of everyday life, even in the most mundane moments.

    This was a wonderful episode with Reuben Radding. Thanks Paulie! I love the "Stay in the don't know", it's exactly where you want to be, quote! So true about your feelings and self doubt. There are so many great nuggets here. Thanks again to you both for this conversation!

    10:30 damn switched up the location and sirens start going off lol. At first it was the planes then you switched it up and the sirens came. Makes sense why you waited for them to pass and cut into his response. By the way, love hearing 2 photographers discussing photography. Thanks for sharing!

    Love this guy's photography. I really think he's one of the top street photographers in the country right now. It's good to know we all struggle with self doubt. This art form can be kinda isolating, so it can be hard to get perspective and know what to do with those "feelings".

    I definitely feel a similar way and have come to some of the same realizations recently when forming bodies of work and coming up with new ideas for projects. I have found so much good insight just from combing through my work from the past few years. I've definitely had my fair share of self-doubt as well. Just keep going. The effort you put in will eventually lead you in new directions.

    Good luck with the book, Reuben! I'm working on just a small zine with (target) 36 images and it's such a challenge! I completely understand how the process is raising fundamental questions about your photography. It's a process every street photographer should go through. Good to see you've got the 6x4 prints to work with - I found this really helpful.
    It's been a privilege to hear your thought process.

    Reuben is a great photographer he has built his experience and now understands the difference between mediocre and professional type of work. Steve McCurry is the greatest of all time he learned from the greats that the best photographers are the best because they understand it’s extremely important to understand the fundamentals, story telling, composition etc. as amateurs we take spontaneous photos and like Reuben said oh okay so you took a picture of someone tying their shoes but what’s the real story and does the rest of the picture have substance to make the photo stronger and more appealing. If you don’t know go check out Steve’s work 🐐

    When putting together a book, do you struggle with the temptation of adding your most recent photos, like just days/weeks/etc. old, along with your photos from the last decade? Does putting together your book prevent from going out on the streets to photograph? Does reviewing your decade old work cause you to question how you're taking contemporary photos, with respect to composition, theme, perspective, story, etc.?

    3:18 I can give you one - very likely - interpretation of what's going on in this picture. And I think my interpretation is likely right, as I am in the same situation as I think the depicted are.
    The young man in this image is probably severely autistic and requires constant care and supervision. I have a son who suffers from severe autism, the mannerism of this young man in the image, the necessity to grab him by the wrist and drag him through the street so he won't wander off, walk into traffic, pick something gross up from the ground to put into his mouth, the way he very subtly raises his index finger on the other hand without pointing at what he's looking at, the way he stares forward, the way he leans backward while being pulled - all of that is so similar to my son. You could have easily taken this exact image seeing me walk down the street with my son.
    You taking this image not realizing you probably took an image of a severely disabled person and the struggle of the person taking care of him is why autism is often called an invisible disability.
    Hopefully this helps to make some more people aware of people on the autism spectrum and their difficulties integrating into society. When you sell the book with this image in it, maybe donate a portion of your proceeds to a charity for autism. Thank you.

The first half of the presentation has nothing to do with sharing on insta-berg, and is truly excellent, on its own. By about the 16-minute mark, the discussion moved onward, to truly excellent discussion of yet another subject, that has nothing to do with insta-berg. The title does not reflect the best parts of this presentation. I am trying to be helpful, when pointing this out…

    I could say that an equivalence to the "don't know" mind is the "Vivian Maier". mind We "dont know" what she thought. However she went around 40+ years not knowing whether her images would receive recognition or not. She may not have even cared. Its a reasonble speculation though that whatever motivated her to continue was almost entirely internally driven. All that we can do is explore internally why we do what we do. Budhism Taoism Meditation are all possible approaches to the same thing of exploring the "dont know". Good luck for the book.

    To add to the discussion, once you upload anything to Instagram (and others) "you grant us (instagram ed.) a license to use it." While they don't claim ownership, by posting you basically grant insta to do practically anything with your photos, including modifying and use for publicity.
