Jugando con los planos y con la espontaneidad que la calle aporta, Heiko Waetcher es uno de estos fotógrafos que aprovecha cualquier momento para ir ampliando su book de imágenes. Sólo necesita salir de casa.

“I like that you never quite know what you’re going to get. It’s a game of chance to a certain extent. Street photography teaches you to be alert because you never know when inspiration will strike. Also, you learn to look at your surroundings in a different way. When I stared out I had this fascination with what things look like photographed. I think that curiosity is important to hang on to. With more experience you can learn to visualize a shot in your head when you are looking at a scene and sense something is there, even before you pull out the camera. So what I love most is that fleeting moment, when you are in the right place, at the right time and in the right mood, and a scene unfolds before your eyes that you know needs to be captured. Everything stops around you and your entire focus is on getting the shot. I believe Henry Cartier-Bresson coined this ‘the decisive moment’ ” dice Waetcher.
