Hello and welcome to my channel. I am Adrian and on this channel you will find photography videos from awesome locations. Let's discover the world one video at a time!
@@adriancaleanu For sure, most wide angle landscape photography is quite "empty" as most haven't learned to incorporate the foreground to create depth, you only see some distant shapes very remotely that doesn't create an interesting image. The image just comes across as flat, even dull. Every time you are struck by awe by the immense landscape most reach for a wide angle to try and capture it all, what you envision in your head as a super wide canvas but actually with your own eyes view in small portions one at the time, that your brain ties together to create the vastness you remember filling the entire horizon. But maybe if you could make a print that covers a whole facade or at least a wall it would make sense. Otherwise that image would become more interesting if you took a little portion of it, as you can with a telephoto lens.
Thanks a lot! When the location is photogenic, is much easier to shoot a lot of good photos. You don't have to work that hard to find good compositions. As you saw in the video, there was a lot of drama all around haha. Lake reflections, sunset, those awesome clouds and the moody fog in the end. A lot of things to photograph. And between these photos, you just talk to the camera and say what you have to say - about the location, what's the plan for the shoot, things that you find interesting at that particular location. It's like having a conversation with someone but that someone is the camera. I think I had in total about 2 h to shoot the photos and the video before total darkness. It's enough time to get photos and enough footage for a 15 min video.
Tío el video estuvo fantastico,me alegra de que estuvieras bien en ese pais o en algun otro ahora estoy en peru Man, the video was fantastic, I'm glad you were fine in that country or in some other country, now I'm in Peru✨✨
Yes agree that it is a two way street but still I believe that knowing your gear as a photographer and specifically its limitations and working around them is more important than. You can capture a story with old gear and with new tech gear, the outcome maybe different but not always better. You can have the best gear but if you don’t know how to use it, you will still just take a mediocre photo or video. Experience trumps gear in my opinion, not that gear doesn’t matter, just not to a point that many people think. GAS is a real thing and i am a victim of it just like anyone but i find the more i restrict my self with gear the more i grow creatively. And as for Megapixels i think from 2 to 16 mp was a bigger jump then from 16 to 40 for the use case of 95% of today’s images
I agree - 2 to 16 is a bigger jump than 16 to 40. Do I want a 40 mb camera Of course. Do I need it? No. Old gear is great until you out grow it. Because if you want to try something that your gear it's not capable of, then it's time for an upgrade. In my opinion and experience, experience trumps the gear you already have. It helped you get the experience that you needed, but now if you want to unlock a new level of experience, you need something better. That's how I evolved as a photographer. Thanks for the comment! Cheers! :)
Thanks David! Yeah, I bet it was very different back then. Heck, the skyline changes from year to year now with all the new construction projects going around GVA.
