## Resource

In this episode, we sit down with Don Hudson, a master of street and documentary photography with over 40 years of experience. Don is the author of Eyeshot's sold out edition “Can I Get a Witness?” that collects his most iconic images—a raw and authentic journey into the heart of the American Midwest in the ’70s and ’80s. During the interview, Don shares anecdotes about creating this project and discusses how his photographs narrate the culture and daily life of that era. The conversation touches on many exciting and current themes: from consent and ethics in photographing strangers on the street, to the differences between analog and digital photography, up to the impact of AI (Artificial Intelligence) on modern photography. We discuss the cultural impact of street photography—how images can bear witness to social changes and influence our perception of reality. Don offers his sincere perspective on how photography, both analog and digital, can serve as a witness of our times and on the photographer’s role in society.
