In this episode of Street Life, Mark  and John are thrilled to welcome guest Rammy Narula, a Bangkok-based street photographer known for his innovative approach and philosophical insights into the art. Rammy shares his journey into photography, which began as a way to cope with personal challenges. He discusses his evolution from various photography styles to finding his passion in street photography, emphasising the spontaneity and simplicity it offers.

Rammy also opens up about his writing process, revealing how he uses writing as a tool for self-reflection and connection with others. He shares his thoughts on the importance of community and feedback in photography, contrasting the past with today’s social media landscape.

We delve into Rammy's notable project, "Platform 10", which showcases his dedication to capturing life on a single train platform in Bangkok. He recounts the challenges and triumphs of this project, including how it led to the publication of his photo book.

Throughout the episode, we explore themes of creativity, self-acceptance, and the impact of external validation on our artistic pursuits. Rammy's insights remind us that while we may seek approval, the true value lies in creating work that resonates with ourselves and others.

There's a particular kind of alchemy that happens when a photographer hits the pavement, turning fleeting glances and mundane moments into something permanent and profound. Street Life digs into that process, hosted by the insightful duo of John St and Mark Davidson. Every other week, they pull up a chair with a fascinating array of image-makers who find their muse in the public square. You'll hear from revered figures whose work has defined the genre for decades, sitting right alongside new voices who are pushing the boundaries of what street photography can be. The conversations are less about technical gear talk and more about the human experience behind the viewfinder-the stories of patience, chance, and connection that lead to a single, compelling frame. This podcast thrives on the personal narratives and the shared obsession that drives photographers to wander cities with a camera. It’s an invitation to understand not just how these artists see, but why they look where they do, offering a deeper appreciation for the vibrant, unscripted theater of everyday life. Tune in for a regular dose of inspiration that might just make you see your own surroundings in a completely new light.
