5B4: Manhattan Out by Raymond Depardon
Using his Leica like a shotgun fired from chest level, the wide angle of his lens gathered information wholesale as he navigated the crowds attempting to work without notice.

Tim Hussin interview – Part A
For one, I physically get close to my subjects. I tend to shoot more wide-angle photos. I really try to develop a rapport with the people I’m around when I’m shooting.
