An interesting quote from Joel Meyerowitz, apropos shooting street photography in Paris in the 1960s:
"JM - Those days were heaven. If you were fast and learned how to be invisible - like Bresson - you could do, it seemed, anything and no one was aware. Not like today where everyone is primed to think about 'fame', or celebrity, and wants to own their 'brand' so they're more aware and hostile to being seen. Then the camera wasn't as common as the ball point pen, as it is now, so carrying one didn't make you suspicious, or lecherous seeming as it does today when everyone is afraid their likeness or their child will appear on the internet as some strange trophy."
Joel Meyerowitz, from an interview with Nick Turpin in 2009
