When I first read about Miroslav Tichý story, I was amaze to see an artist that did not care to get caught on the latest gear or technology, but only his art, the art of taking photos. Miroslav was a street photographer that took close to a hundred photos a day from people (mostly women) around his home town. He lived under very poor conditions creating his cameras from scrap and developing the negatives on a bucket. In 2004 Roman Buxbaum created a short documentary about Miroslav where they spend some time going through his dusty photographs while interview him. The Documentary was very poorly done with a very little insight on his past and present life. Here are some images of Miroslav cameras, photographs and a link to the documentary.
