Video Profile: Peter Black on Documenting the Streets of New Zealand

Here’s a short 10-minute profile by The Learning Connexion on photographer Peter Black, a man who has been documenting the streets of New Zealand for the past 40 years. He’s known for the simple way in which he documents commonplace scenes. “I’m trying to document New Zealand,” he says.

Black started doing street photography with black and white film, but lately he has been transitioning his work into digital color photography. You can find a collection of his images over on his website.


P.S. If you enjoyed this video, the same school shot a profile of astrophotographer Mark Gee last year.
