This new book will show you ways to be more incognito on the streets while also preserving the anonymity of your subjects.” Links to Marco Larousse: Web: www.MarcoLarousse.com Twitter: @HamburgCam Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/marco.larousse/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MarcoLarousse1 Links to PPN: Web: www.PhotoPodcasts.com Twitter: @Photopodcasts Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/photopodcasts/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWaUn2M1BBoecISFEOJGRCg Please support our show by using our B&H affiliate link (click here) that will not cost you a penny more than when you are buying at B&H without our link.
