Hope you all enjoy this video One of the best compliments I ever had was from someone who said upon looking at one of my photos - 'I was standing right next you and I would never have seen that'brbrOnce again I decided to attack my face with a razor before filming :D

This video is one of the best I’ve seen on YouTube about photography in the last months 👍

We can just photoshop a guy in there
Comment from : @policeluber6720

May I add something I have been experiencing? brbrI'm not sure how to say this but watching your videos, taking photographs, and oddly enough, attempting to create photo-worthy scenes in the game 'Cities Skylines' has shown me that HOW you see the world matters brbrSo I say, you are doing more than showing us how to see a photo's potential, but showing us how to see the beauty that is present and unnoticed I think that when you see the world with this lens, you get to see beauty as if you were color blind and suddenly see a wide range of colors brbrI hope this resonates as it seems moot, but for me, it has changed my life I do not take photographs for others I take them so I can SEE the beauty that was always there and I did not noticebrbrIt is an exercise in finding the beautiful

"and when you're relaxed, you take better photographs" Excellent advice
Comment from : @jennqgoo

Thanks for the knowledge drop!
Comment from : @SOLIDSNAKE

Thank you for this video as it has reassured me that I am not some kind of `photographic freak' haha Most of what you have talked about explains my photography perfectly My friends say I am able to find subjects with some kind of sixth sense from viewpoints they would never consider I once laid flat on my stomach to capture a bent and twisted tin can only to be asked by a passer by if I needed an ambulance! I have only just found your channel and must say I have enjoyed everything I have seen so far which is so refreshing from the norm so thank you again

A Youtuber was saying that a polaroid or instant camera with few controls cannot be used for art photographs I told him he doesn't know shit!
Comment from : @1972myc

This was amazing advise - watched it before, but watched again a few times and took in something new each time
Comment from : @johnman5537

Finally somebody that addresses the essence of photography Thank you !

Hi Alex, I really enjoyed this episode, so thank you very much for aharing your thoughts brbrI looked clicked on the 'Seeing' playlist however the link is broken/doesn't exist Have you created an alternate playlist by chance? (I could not see one in your channel playlist tab)
Comment from : @TheCaptainWalter

Was camping in Dorset last year,at our regular site,and sat outside,as the sun rose in front of usPicked up one of my cameras,and was trying to get an"arty"photoMy wife looked at me,and said,"look at the light on those thistlesI Laid down in the grass,and took backlit pictures, with phone and camerasI use one of those pictures as a screen saver,and the best bit is,it was taken on a 20 year old,5mp Minolta Dimage7Sorry for rambling,but have been a keen photographer for 45 years,and although you think"taken this,taken that"my wife's observation was spot on

The pro stage of photography is probably composition

Im so happy I found this channel
Comment from : @miguelangelvazquezroque3791

I am an armature photographer and I really appreciate your channel
Comment from : @Anglitimmike

I go on three mile walks in cities like Barcelona, Budapest, NYC and Newark, NJ If I walk with my wife, it becomes very purposeful and in spit of carrying two camera bodies and one lens that is 10 to 24 and another 70 to 300 I rarely get any seriously interesting photos If I go out by myself with the same to setups and no purpose, I can revisit things I noticed on the "purposeful" walks but couldn't stop to ponder I do somewhat better
Comment from : @lightbox617

Seek and you will find…that’s what I feel after stumble upon your channel! It’s different and love it!

7:00 I have a "sixth sense" moment with this photo
Comment from : @mrt9019

Simply great! brThank you 🙂
Comment from : @exurban5207

Love the fragments point
Comment from : @bhadriverduzco5923

Did you really frame yourself with that bookshelf to keep the same aspect ratio as the example photos?
Comment from : @anonharingenamn

Hi Alex, br brThanks for this video brIt's an eye opener brThis is because I always think about what I want to photograph and because of this I always get stuck on creativity brStupid of me that I never came up with it myself brBecause of you, I'm going to grab the camera again tomorrow and get out there again brIf I don't come across anything, at least I had a nice walk brThanks again
Comment from : @Photographic_Love

Ha the good old days when we first started photography we would take images of everything and anything brNow I'm lucky if I do 1 click a month Never go out with something in the head but to lap up the atmosphere with diffrent light from day to day to suit the image
Comment from : @justicewilson686

Thank you so much for your videos, they are really helpful and detailed! I have a "technical"question about aspect ratio: I see some photographers make their photos available in different aspect ratios (like 8x10 and 8x12" prints of the same photo) without "cutting" anything out of the photo They have borders around their prints of course but I don't think the solution is to change the border size By any chance you have already made a video about how to remedy to this? Thank you

Thank you for the content, wonderful explained, thank you so much :)
Comment from : @RuhrpottFaxe

I thoroughly enjoyed this - and completely resonate, unusual angles, positions and framing really make us second take, it's fresh and exciting

Thanks a lot!!!!!
Comment from : @karendavtian6651

I’ve found your channel recently and I’m already glued to it That glare in your eyes says everything about your passion for photography! Thank you!
Comment from : @ruisantos8291

Whenever I need inspiration I come to your channel
Comment from : @RazzberryRachel

Why does it keep zooming (by cropping) in and out on the presenter? It’s a bit jarring
Comment from : @AnthonyCarrick

Ironically one of the fastest ways to improve your photography is to stop trying to take "different" or "unique" or "great" photos and just concentrate on things that interest you at that moment in that place at that time
Comment from : @boatman222345

This reminds me of the advice from one of my early teachers "When everyone is focused on one thing, turn around and photograph what's going on behind you"
Comment from : @scryguy1

one of the only good photography channels on youtube Love your videos! The other one is wwwyoutubecom/c/StillLifeArtandthephotographicimage Cheers!

Comment from : @AnandaGarden

What an awesome channel Some people are destined to give us photographs, and others are destined to teach You, my friend, are the latter, and it is no less noble Thank you for this channel
Comment from : @Smaug1

Absolutely wonderful Thank you
Comment from : @dwen5065

This was brilliant I can't calculate how many photography videos I've watched, but this short, clear, honest, and insightful 9 minutes easily takes its place among the most impactful few You've got a new subscriber, and a new person to say 'thanks very much'

“Don’t be lazy and just settle for the obvious” I feel attacked
Comment from : @MarkCranerium

Window reflections can be fun
Comment from : @FlatWaterFilms

Probably one of the best videos on photography that I came across by "accident" Thank you! New sub!
Comment from : @exzemoron

It's because you're not meant to be a photographer
Comment from : @thetechrealist

Beautifully explained😇
Comment from : @106bagishrabha6

A really great exercise in photography, is to choose a fixed focal length lens, and only use that for a day or so… some photos will blow your mind, most will probably fail, but you’ll learn nonetheless
Comment from : @mortenthorpe

Could not finish the video 4 ad blocks in a video of barely 10 minutes is just too much
Comment from : @MrLensink

This was great One of the first photography videos in awhile I didn’t want to click off of before the end
Comment from : @dpwood44

This was an incredibly rewarding video I am grateful
Comment from : @josephblake8418

Thanks for this, very enjoyable channel and content
Comment from : @supranomicon

Just discovered your channel, thank you for talking about the actual art of photography and not about gear, technical settings, etc
Comment from : @JonathanAcierto

How refreshing your videos are I really come away feeling that I have learnt something after watching , thank you
Comment from : @malcolmrendle6622

Love this video Good advice
Comment from : @ginaheaton2203

I shoot weddings and engagement photos and I love going to new places with couples and walking around We often walk back the same way we came in because sometimes what you don’t see was behind you I have my head on a swivel looking about for the stunning environmental photo
Comment from : @mazzith

if only I could like this video multiple times
Comment from : @shrishtilakhera5045

Way, way too many ads in this I find it really irritating and distracting - and detracts from your video
Comment from : @Mymontagemovies

I always say you become a photographer , when you begin to see the world through a lens, and there is no camera in your hand
Comment from : @marklinfleshman

Lucky to have chanced upon this video :)
Comment from : @freesimba5168

Fabulous insight into taking photographs Never thought about a lot of these things Will have so much fun trying out theseideas Thank you
Comment from : @annescarlett5463

Well finally someone pointing out that fancy expensive gear doesn't make you a photographer
Comment from : @KaiTeBryga

I had a friend who once traveled to Jamaica for 4 weeks to visit her inlaws while there she managed to take 2 photos The only one I recall was one of a vine on a telegraph pole, and no, it was not a good photo at all I can go out into my back garden and take so many interesting photos but she goes 1/2 around the world and actually sees nothing
Comment from : @Deb-

Very useful, Original video Thank you I agree that Being in the moment is the key Should be open to the subjects, scene everything at that moment, as this is unique and there is a possibility that we frame this unique shot in our own way
Comment from : @nezbulkanal

Thanks for the inspiration Learning to take photos from a wheelchair By happenstance not choice
Comment from : @cindyvincent6356

I'm not keen to trust anyone who says things like, "unlocked the seven steps" There is just SOOOOO much BS wrapped up in those four words of "Tube-speak"
Comment from : @GrantSR

I like your relaxed slower and concise approach to film and speech The pauses actually add a lot
Comment from : @lography6917

So much value Thank you!
Comment from : @guelbergoes

Your perspective on the perspective, acknowledging in that instant - what you are seeing is unique Keep a camera at the ready brStudy the horizon and the minuscule Find one within the other One process is to see the out of place Excellent piece of work
Comment from : @jonnymo4728

It was a wonderful video I will watch your next videos too
Comment from : @danibaharal

The reason I bought my first camera is because I find these secret photos
Comment from : @jcarrandson

This was refreshing, simple, and obvious, however I seldom think of these "tools" when I go out shooting I usually end up being the photographer at parties taking boring pictures of everyone to later post on Facebook My most dreaded assignment for sure I will have to utilize some of these techniques next time I go out, thanks!

Ok, who are you? This is some of the best advice I’ve gotten as a photographer and as a witness to my present

Comment from : @bobtaylor8746

This video was very eye opening Thank you
Comment from : @crooker2

There's no such thing as a bad scene to photograph, there is only bad lighting, bad timing, and bad framing
Comment from : @peoplez129

Wow! Just discovered this channel and watched a couple of your videos Thank you for bringing such a refreshing and informative amount of content that focuses on the art of photography rather than endless discussions about gear
Comment from : @petercripps5556

Amazing video! Thank you so much! Such valuable tips!
Comment from : @Chris_2023_
