You captured the hustle and bustle of a day in the city, Roger I felt like I was back in Toronto in the 1960s ... except for all the people who were either on their phones or looking at their phones. I wonder what future generations will think about us, the culture who were attached to and lived their daily lives in their phones. 😂👍👍

Thank you, Wayne. I too look at the ‘now’ culture and wonder the same thing. In many ways the reason why I take photographs and make documentary style films is to capture the ‘now’ and fondly look back on in future years. I am absolutely fascinated with photographs from the 70’s, I truly wish that I was interested in photography back then.

Right on. Just what I needed to finish off my Sunday. I really like the way you mix photos and video in these. I tend to work through Melbourne - I see a lot of this, but your eyes show a lot of what I zip past - very much appreciate this.

Very kind mate, thank you. I usually see this in Sydney and take it for granted, obviously, however when it is on film I find it strangely different and intriguing.

This..Magnificent. You are one hell of an artist mate.

Some of those moving shots, if you had people dresses in 40's suits would make it all look so authentically 1940's. I love this. Watching again on a bigger screen. I love the tank top image.

Yes, agree with the 40’s remark. I find it intriguing just watching people go about their day, and exactly as we all do, oblivious to what we look like.

@@rogerbrooksfilms I look great. Like a great lump of a bloke anyway.

Gives me such a NYC in the '70's vibe. We had been in a fiscal crisis for a few years and it seemed like the City was in black and white. Thanks for this video.

Thank you very much. I love the NYC 70's vibe. You should check out Jill Freedman's monochrome images from that time, she spent many nights tagging along in NYC police cars racing to scenes.

Great work Roger 😎👏🏻👏🏻

Haha, sorry mate. I’m always deciding on sequence timing, and often dislike shifting photographs quickly… it’s a work in progress. With me the music usually dictates the timing.

Couldn’t believe how lucky I was to have the other plane flying in sequence in the distance, and then the shadow of ours.
