Interesting guy, I specially liked his early shots from Britain. He makes a very good point about all these privacy laws enacted in the west that makes it almost impossible to do street photography. The period we're living in is going to be a black hole, nobody will know what daily life was like in the 21st century.

And those laws are even worst here in Quebec as almost all street photography is essentially banned. One of our local street photographers has had to resort to finding clever ways to hide people's faces to avoid getting another lawsuit (check out Gilbert Duclos). You can clearly see the before 1987 and after 1987 in his series.
