[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Here we are with Mr Jamel Shabazz, a well known photographer from New York City. He is best known for his capturing of the 80's youth decked out in b-boy styles in NYC. He has more to offer though as we learned during an exclusive workshop for youth in Toronto.

I was lucky enough to attend a lecture of his and the WS, which was a lot of fun and very informative.

Jamel says 'look at people's body language, decide if you can ask for the shot', sometimes, 'they can't say no', referring to someone who looks too damn good not to want their photo taken.

Thanks Jamel.

Looks like you have learned a lot from his WS. For me, this is the best shot of your gallery. Well done.

Great work, good colors and details!well done!

Hello nod. The photo pleases me very well. It is outstanding composed. All in all: top. Best regards, Wolfgang.

Hello Nick.
We see so many photos of photographers in action...but here, the note is so short and sweet I had to comment. The photograph is excellent...well frame, good exposure and great colors. The senbtiment contained in the note is excellent....quite right, some people just want to be photographed.
Very nicely done.
Chris.
