Only one word... Wow... Most photographers at B&H don't teach anything and just self-promote. Dotan gave a LOT of useful knowledge in such a short amount of time... Incredible photos too. Thank you so much Dotan and B&H for sharing.
This is a quiet miracle of a piece, in my opinion. Inspirational, to say the least. We should all get so far in five years, nevermind one. Testament to the benefits of a belief in one's own abilities, respect for the Masters, practicing your craft. Aim high, stay humble. Thank you.
Dotan, your work is incredible.The consistency of your work is astonishing. This is the best B&H video I have seen but I look forward to seeing and hearing more from you in the future. Truly inspiring work and a very down to earth presentation. I’m sure I will come back to this presentation many times. Thanks Dotan, this has made my day!
Most street photographers just show a slideshow of their photos. Not this one: Full of insightful information I can use on my next shoot. How refreshing!
I highly recommend watching one at least every two days. The amount of amazing information that is shared in these event space seminars are amazing. They've personally helped me develop my style and I'm sure they'd do the same for you!
Great work and advice by Dotan. Working for a weekly newspaper was a godsend for me. Sports, concerts, politics, and daily life. A press pass is a ticket to go just about anywhere and shoot anything and diffuses the few confrontations. Grab a paper and see upcoming events go out and shoot.
Congrats Dotan! Nicely done. A very fun look at your progression over the past year or so. Loved hearing your story. I will continue to say it...your patience to capture the moment, is inspiring!
Love it. Great and very good understandable presentation. But the best reason to follow his words are his photographs: each of them is an icon (for me).
Awesome stuff Dotan, I’m in the same boat, I have an outside income but I’m looking to just learn photography as I go, I’m not really interested in the wedding photography or product photography but this is something that really draws me in, I’ve found this very helpful and inspiring.
Street photography isn’t as easy as most people think. This talk gives you a lot of the tools you need to become a better street photographer. Watch it!
Hi. For the initial few minutes I was tempted to give a thumbs down and stop the video - after all, the guy is barely a pro and "what the hell would he be able to teach?". Well, thankfully, I lingered for a bit longer and, man, what a great story! A very humble guy, yet starting in his steps toward being a professional photographer, but with a VERY INTERESTING and CAPTIVATING photographer story. I enphatically recommend that any aspiring photographer - street or not - do take the time to watch this video and learn with this VERY GOOD photographer - and, BTW, I'm not into street or social photography. Thanks to B&H for this oportunity. Thanks to Dotan for the lecture. And thanks I didn't succumb to my own prejudice beforehand! :)
This is an absolutely wonderful presentation. The photographs are amazing and I learned so much. I would however, like to add one piece of information about National Geographic. 21st Century Fox, headed by James Murdoch, owns 73% of what is now "National Geographic Media Properties" . The National Geographic Society (of old) only owns 27%. I mention this so that you will read very carefully what you are signing when you submit photos to the site and to their competitions.
Thanks for the clarification, Pat. Very important information indeed. As I mentioned in the talk, everyone should weigh their own priorities carefully to decide what, when and how much to submit to National Geographic. It ended-up being of big help for me when broadening my focus from street photography to travel photography but everyone should evaluate independently and decide what they're confortable with in their own photography journey.
Very nice content, tho I would penalize any photographer celebrating CUBAN genozide and abusing or ridiculising those old cars that they are not able to change because of the poverty they do suffer thanks to the CASTRO REGIME, lets face it, cuba looks attractive because its iconic to any revolutionary heart that doesn't learn enough about what really happens there, and decide to take the OLD buildings, the OLD CARS.... they will change there when the REGIME GOES not when OBAMA went there to celebrate the DICTATURE.
The largest concentration of useful tips I’ve ever seen in a talk about street photography. Amazing.
Only one word... Wow... Most photographers at B&H don't teach anything and just self-promote. Dotan gave a LOT of useful knowledge in such a short amount of time... Incredible photos too. Thank you so much Dotan and B&H for sharing.
No BS, no self promotion. Just great tips about street photography. Thank you!
Anyone who is interested in street photography or documentary photography should watch this. Full of great tips!
One of the best presentations I've seen here in a long time!! Thanks.
This is a quiet miracle of a piece, in my opinion. Inspirational, to say the least. We should all get so far in five years, nevermind one. Testament to the benefits of a belief in one's own abilities, respect for the Masters, practicing your craft. Aim high, stay humble. Thank you.
Thank you for your kind words, Michael!

Having been a street photographer myself for many years this resonated with me on a very deep level. A must watch!
I now have a new favorite photographer. Amazing images. I could watch this everyday and probably will. Thank you for posting this.
So many golden nuggets of information from Dotan I feel like a millionaire.
No kidding!!! Loving this!

Beautiful, inspiring work and well presented. Thank you!
It’s nice to see a street photography related lecture for once at the event space. And a great one to say the least. Kudos.
Loved the presentation Dotan! We were colleagues at the MPW.68 and i still remember the portraits you've made! Beautiful work!!!

I guess I’m a little late to the party... but what an excellent lecture. Amazing photographer.
Love it. Great and very good understandable presentation. But the best reason to follow his words are his photographs: each of them is an icon (for me).

Got 1h? Watch this!
Very nice content, tho I would penalize any photographer celebrating CUBAN genozide and abusing or ridiculising those old cars that they are not able to change because of the poverty they do suffer thanks to the CASTRO REGIME, lets face it, cuba looks attractive because its iconic to any revolutionary heart that doesn't learn enough about what really happens there, and decide to take the OLD buildings, the OLD CARS.... they will change there when the REGIME GOES not when OBAMA went there to celebrate the DICTATURE.
