We live in strange times but... there you go

And on the other end, some of the most wanky, pretentious and racist photographers I've met have been studio portrait photographers.

I know they are crazy peeps, but man, if I had to hang out with any photographer I would always want to hang out with the photojournalists. The most courageous, damaged underdogs and I love them all.

I'm so far down the rabbit hole, its like a dot at this point. I wonder how many people see what I'm trying to do here? Does this resonate at all?

There's an alt-right prick who follows me on IG and photos like this really wind him up. Meanwhile he shares the most wallpaper camera club photos Ha!

Exactly. Who is this for?

I was sent this photo (left) by Erik for inspo. I found the close proximity and tight crop of someone ignoring you on their phone very bizarre. I did the phone shot (right) for Erik he wanted but made it a wider, more voyeuristic, where he's on his own. To me that excuses the staring at the phone

He's my dear friend Stefans son, who passed away last year. He loves the photos and I showed him the video before posting it. He's massive Iman fan, but I think I made a good case in the video.

Thanks Gav. I'm expecting a torrential of skint teenagers coming to defend the millionaire in the comments any minute now

Something weird about these male influencers, in both their looks, taste (lack thereof)), interests ... it's a very narrow sad kind of life.
And it's usually fake, actually unreal, & for me that's ... tragic.

They should look into who did this to you

Mexican particle wave!

Thank you, it's so difficult on YouTube even the regular video with all the blurred photos still got demonetized and lots of warnings on it. No doubt that will limit its reach. Anyway, thank you for being a channel member it's pretty much the only reason I keep doing it.

Yeah, well, I'm really sorry. On the plus side stuff has a habit of coming back on people in the end, doesn't it? 😎

It really sucks Jim. when I got fried on YouTube I ended up paying some dude in Pakistan £50 on Fiverr and giving him all my Google passwords. It did get sorted, but also that was a pretty crazy thing to do! ha! I've got your book and I will film a review this week

I really feel for Jim, he’s just launched an amazing photo book and he’s lost access to his social media. Anyone know how to get his profiles unlocked? He seems to have leaped through all the hoops like getting his birth certificate, passport etc

Yeah it's alright. I mean if I really wanted a bigger following for my YouTube channel I'd be interviewing other YouTubers but I just refuse to do that. Hey man, I'm sure it's just one of those things because I've done this for three years now that I've ruminated on it.

Its a courtesy thing. I re-share a post if someone shares my photos or books. That took them 30 seconds to do. I spend hours making a video about someones work and they can't press a button? lol I have a plan going forward though!

I do a little feature on the show about 'photographers that I love'.

They never get many views, I do them for the love.

It takes about 3-4 hours to record and edit the 5 minute video.

Only one photographer so far has bothered to share the video on their social media... and he was American.

Ha I know right! It seemed to be the be safer option than putting it out on YouTube to avoid the trolls. I'm running out of options ;)

I was going to cut to a clip of the Reservoir Dogs "Madonna speech" but I didn't want to risk the channel strike for copyright.

"How many Dicks is that?"

"A lot"

One of my fave writers John Higgs has a book on Leary. I need to read it. He's a fantastic writer. Loved his KLF book and William Blake book too.
