Comment from : @stevendolinsky

This is without a doubt the best photography channel right now ( for me ) ; (ok maybe with Jamie Windsor ) Not sure how you will be able to keep on this level 3 times a week , 😂 but thinking about it , with your photographic culture and passion for it , I am certain that you will be keep bringing more interesting content all the best

Ple review the youtube page ''George Eastman Museum'' The have wonderful material(The Daguerreotype - Photographic Processes Series)
Comment from : @manot8273

dang near every shot you show the main subject is right in the middle mccurry's stuff is certainly very good but we are not going to learn a lot here except one other thing you didn't mention "pay attention to the background" and, of course the edges
Comment from : @mikepenney5726

Another brilliant video, thanks🌟

Comment from : @martin701

feel lucky to found this video on Youtube I watch dozens of them who teach just technical photography bt this is far away keep posting
Comment from : @malithchathuranga1403

There is no one as good as Curry
Comment from : @prs26

What makes this video so good is your teaching ability Sorry not a Sm fan
Comment from : @darkoroom7114

Danke!
Comment from : @bwaide

Love how practical, yet open to flexibility, your videos can be
Comment from : @kenallen9142

this is simply amazing video! one of the best on composition ive seen on youtube believe me, composition is one of the things i study the most thank you so much as always, you are just great!
Comment from : @lucasilva9665

Despite the good advice to fill the frame, among the portraits here I found the ones showing something of the context/surroundings more interesting than the straight-on head-shots (fascinating though they also are, of course) brI've been looking for a "portrait" lens, but now I think I'll stick with something a bit wider Alex and Mr McCurry just saved me a few hundred euros!
Comment from : @johnvienna3422

Very nicely done Excellent presentation of the right shots to illustrate your pointsbrMcCurry had a major exhibition in Graz last year The photos were backlit, like slides, and suspended in the dark The smallest were a couple of metres across; the largest must have been maybe six I strongly recommend this exhibition
Comment from : @johnvienna3422

Your passion for photos and reverence towards past photographers just oozes out of you when you speak about what makes them special I greatly appreciate your channel and wish you much growth the second half of this year
Comment from : @nickguzman1734

Another great video
Comment from : @ISO1200MAGAZINE

Muy bueno gracias
Comment from : @josecarlosmora9318

Another winner Alex! The best photography video I have seen in a while! This might be my favorite video of yours so far I look forward to more Watching the minimalist one next
Comment from : @brokenalgorithms4741

Another excellent video I like the relaxing background sounds and the change made to your own voice, either via the microphone or speaking style Calm, confident and inspirational I would love to have a deeper study of any of these techniques A full video on just framing or just the fall of light on the image This video deserves 100k views
Comment from : @davidbrighten2572

How would you feel if you learned musician you grew up loving actually wasn’t the one performing That is how I feel about McCurry when you learn he stages his images but plays them off as photojournalism It makes you look at an image like his crowdsurfing Holi photo and realize he did document that moment he produced it but played it off as photojournalism
Comment from : @JonathanAdamsPhoto

I really needed this,thank you
Comment from : @AK-hk2pd

Thumbs up
Comment from : @nh-ss5pw

Color is also very important in Steve McCurrys photos
Comment from : @harmkaterberg111

Thank you for this quality content I enjoyed your tone and ambient music
Comment from : @thisisfrankie

I love Steve McCurry’s work One of my fav’s along with Josef Koudelka 🥂
Comment from : @daniellejudd3359

Great video and undeniably striking pictures, but for me Steve McCurry's work is tainted by the issues around manipulation of images
Comment from : @MrLukeod

Unpopular opinion: those pictures are cool because he took them in amazing places many years ago, I'd take those too being able to travel without a damn pandemic and now a war
Comment from : @v_stands_for_value124

What a fabulous collection of images thanks for sharing Steve McCurry was doing a talk at Fort di Bard in the Aosta Valley Italy a few years ago when I was volunteering in the region but sadly I was unable to visit, I’d love to attend a talk of his one day
Comment from : @JeevesTCW

Thank you once again … wonderful
Comment from : @ubeauty100

Thank you 👍📷😎
Comment from : @Rob1340

Interesting how he frames his subjects to make them stand out even if 'violates' some textbook rule It seems his rule is what will make the viewer focus on his subject and what he wants to say visually about the subject
Comment from : @chocolatecatdad

Thanks for sharing your experience with great comments and suggestions always enjoy your videos and trying to improve my skills at 78 yrs of age cheers from Australia 😀
Comment from : @robertdavis1255

You have good videos, this is probably one of the best
Comment from : @petermary70

Sir, you deserve way more subscribers than what u have now brI've watched few of your videos and with this one about the Great Steve McCurry, you've got my subscriptionbrSetve McCurry is my favourite photographer when is about portraits I'm trying to emulate him but there is always something I miss, but keep on trying and learn is the way <3
Comment from : @CtTano

If you produce a pleasing image, it's almost guaranteed that your composition will fall under one, if not more of these "guides" often called "Rules"brYou may not know of any of them, but people have already figured out what makes an image pleasing, and those "rules" are that understanding on display
Comment from : @michaelhull1813

So much great information and inspiring to seek and look for creative photography, not just snaps 🙂
Comment from : @jamesmoros1274

Very inspiring video Thank you 🙏🏼
Comment from : @ivanrsb

Steve McCurry is nothing short from a lying conman This is man who has been caught editing and manipulating his photographs as well as setting up his photographs while he claimed said photographs were candid And we he got caught editing his photographs, he blamed his editing team, pathetic clown 🤡
Comment from : @user-ti9zc1xv2b

I was fortunate enough to meet Mr McCurry As a person he is as well composed as his photographs Down to earth and a perfect gentleman
Comment from : @SteveSSBB

I am a big fan of Steve McCurry’s work I heartily recommend his book ‘On Reading’ I also recommend Robert Frank’s “The Americans”
Comment from : @sbai4319

Many thanks!! If I may say so, IMO this is one of your best videos I think Steve McCurry is a genius and your analysis and exposition of his compositional techniques is not only fascinating but really useful for us photography mortals!
Comment from : @tonygreenwoodN10

Alex, This video is a perfect example of why your channel has become my favorite: It's informative, inspiring, and focused specifically on how to become a better photographer--Thank You!! Cheers, and keep up the great content!

As always, these “rules” are meant to be broken

Thanks!
Comment from : @harrylaser1

Bravo Excellent analysis and explanation Thank you
Comment from : @aquilifergroup

Great video! I am amazed at how you keep up with such pace and still your videos are so insightful and refreshing!
Comment from : @mihaiul

I’m no doubt at least a decade older than you, so I’ve probably been making photographs ten years longer than you I feel like a kid in school studying a topic I love from a teacher who inspires When I hear you say, “I know you can do it…,” I grab a camera and head out the door
