((Глянул я фоточки, из пальтА сделанные. Вполне забавно. Но, на любителя.
Вот думаю, это какая же была чувствительность пленки, чтобы в метро в 1938 снимать?
Одна из его ранних "халтурок" примечательна.

"В 1938 Эванс также сделал первые фотографии в нью-йоркском метро камерой, скрытой в его пальто[9]. Они были бы собраны в книгу, вышедшую в 1966 под названием «Многие Зовут.»
In 1938, Evans also took his first photographs in the New York City Subway with a camera hidden in his coat. These were collected in book form in 1966 under the title Many Are Called. In 1938 and 1939, Evans worked with and mentored Helen Levitt.

"Критика
Несмотря на широкое признание, художественный принцип Эванса часто подвергался критике. Его обвиняли в тенденциозности изображения Великой Депрессии и излишней драматизации жизни фермеров, которых Эванс снимал в рамках проекта фотодепартамента Администрации по защите фермерских хозяйств.
В своей книге «О фотографии» Сьюзан Зонтаг[10] обращала внимание на то, что кадры Эванса не были спонтанны: он многократно переснимал своих героев, фактически предлагая им позировать перед камерой[11]. Это ставит под сомнение статус его фотографий как документа.
He was born in St. Louis, Missouri to Jessie (née Crane) and Walker Evans.[3] His father was an advertising director. Walker was raised in an affluent environment; he spent his youth in Toledo, Ohio; Chicago; and New York City. He attended the Loomis Institute and Mercersburg Academy,[4] then graduated from Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts in 1922. He studied French literature for a year at Williams College, spending much of his time in the school's library, before dropping out.
He returned to New York and worked as a night attendant in the map room of the Public Library.[5] After spending a year in Paris in 1926, he returned to the United States to join a literary and art crowd in New York City.

For that, he covered his 35-millimeter camera in such a way that the chrome, shiny parts were black and well hidden under his topcoat. Now, only the lens peeked out from between two buttons.
The photographer rigged the shutter with a cable release. He then attached the chord to his sleeve. The button landed into the palm of his hand. His palm remained in his pocket so that it would stay undetected. To go further unnoticed by the passengers, he thought someone must accompany him. For that, he asked his friend and fellow photographer Helen Levitt to join him on his subway rides.

Only more than 20 years later, in 1966, his now-iconic book was published. In that year, The Museum of Modern Art in New York decided to exhibit exemplary photographs by Evans and Agee.
