Thank you for breaking down your shots in the scene as well. It was definitely helpful, especially with the way you're directing the viewer's attention with your hand gestures.
I keep telling this one to myself. But immediately countering the point myself as well. I live in Ireland, and I am pretty certain, that whatever I have here to take a street photography might appear super interesting and a "Cheatcode" for anyone living in Japan. While for them, their own architecture is boring and mundane and they might be having issues recognising the truly interesting stuff, just like I have issues recognising it here in Ireland.
@@ZheikoNilethwell said. Somewhere foreign is always inspiring to photograph, but there is also beauty in the mundane that we’re used to, just means we need to try a little harder… or wait for good lighting 😂
your channel is a gem. thank you so much. these explanations of each composition you do help a lot and inspire me to go out and try to shoot something :)
Another excellent video :-) Great source of inspiration ! And agree with you for the last photo, it is much better with this angle ;-) Thank you for your work 🙏🏻
Having got back from a trip to Japan and seeing I ended up in the same place taking similar photos in the same locations on Miyajima is very amusing, great stuff as usual.
Those miyajima deer can be weirdly aggressive for deer. My wife caught a headbutt from one who was trying to get some food from us. The Nara ones too. We went during the pandemic so they were super hungry for the tourist deer cookies, and I have a great photo of one stood up on its back legs with hooves on her. Which naturally I had to take before I helped out. 😂
Very refreshing compositions, even after quite a few years of photography. One of the best advice I heard about making a good photo was by the late John Free, stating the need to have 3 or 4 subjects in relationship in some kind of way. Almost all you shots are well layered and organized. Much appreciated video, thank you.
Just ordered the 35mm 1.4 after searching for a good deal for a long time. Never liked the 25mm in mft but perhaps this one paired with 18 and 90 will be a good match.
Great video. I actually disagree with you on the last photo. I think it’s perfect as it is. You don’t want it symmetrical. I think sometimes it’s easy to over analyse.
Love understanding what you're seeing when you take a photo, always very nice compositions. I know you edit your raw files, but which fuji simulation do you like to use while shooting? Is there one that you feel helps you capture the best colors/compositions?
Fantastic! I stumbled into your great video, just when our daughter left the same place where you shot this. I shared it with her for educational and memory purposes. Thank you for sharing!
