A teacher once told me the best way to learn photography is to start out in black and white. All the color schemes disappear and the only thing left to focus on is the light and shadows. Excellent advice Roman! Just discovered your account and I've been binging your videos since :) Great content!

@reboundk1ng Год назад

Thank you for this comment. Will give it a shot at black and white

@akosipolsu 9 месяцев назад

100% agree.

@ModernElegancePhoto 5 месяцев назад

I've mostly always shot in bnw the past few months, it seems more lifelike to me for some reason, so much can be conveyed without the distraction of the color

@dangreenuk 2 года назад

One of the most simple yet informative video i’ve seen explaining light. You’ve done a great job explaining this and I think more people need to understand it

@snapsbyfox 2 года назад

Glad you enjoyed it!

@tonygreenwoodN10 2 года назад

This is possibly one of the best 10 minute videos on photography I have seen. Of course, it's bleedin' obvious when you think about it...but sometimes we (or certainly, I) need the bleedin' obvious pointed out! Thank you Roman!

@teodorsk.7124 2 года назад

Same here! Great vid.

@judylindo6874 2 года назад

"A good photograph is knowing where to stand" - Ansel Adams Not sure if he was necessarily speaking of the light, but I'm guessing that was part of it. As always enjoyed, and I know you guys don't celebrate Thanksgiving... but happy thanksgiving anyway!

@snapsbyfox 2 года назад

thank you Judy! likewise I hope you had a good one

@guineabable08 2 года назад

I really like the way you explained everything without coming off super arrogant/egotistical like some of these other photography youtubers

Your most fulfilling video so far Roman! And it feels like very well prepared :)

@andreym7012 2 года назад

This subject can be brought up over and over again :) Always relevant, yet usually neglected. Thank you Roman, as always!

@DenisThibeault_inci 2 года назад

Insightful video, a matter that I observed when I see other people's photographs but one that I often forget except when I make night street photography. I will definitely pay more attention on future outings during the day. Thank you.

@jishin75 2 года назад

This is a gem. Well explained and easy to grab. Nice job.

@mfmonline 2 года назад

@stacyjowilliams4502 2 года назад

@eddyinet 2 года назад

This was a great one 👌🏽 Just have to say I’ve really been enjoying your channel… keep up the great content 🙏👍🏽

@idlikeabetternickname 2 года назад

The way you present things is the best. I've watched all the "mainstream" photographers on YT and they couldn't explain this particular topic to me. All of the had at least one tut video on this subject. Good job dude.

@citronmeringue8166 2 года назад

Awesome video Roman, thank you! I'm actually always so oblivious in regards to light I never even pay attention to where its source is - now the whole way it works is much more clear. Very excited to try this in practice and also the idea of contrasty images looking sharper is such an epiphany tbh.

@stephencampbell7395 2 года назад

Great video. Thank you. You have inadvertently challenged me to be more conscious of the light, its quality and its direction.

@tonesnaps 2 года назад

This is the video of the year. Thank you so much for explaining this! It’s going to make mw better.

@Fraser_TV 2 года назад

Loved this video - really well put together

@vinni113 2 года назад

This is an unbelievably fantastic video. Very simply explained with great examples. Top stuff!

@orsygodri1155 2 года назад

This is absolutely amazing. Since I've been following your photography I started noticing how light can actually help frame a subject and bring a boring composition to life. Great stuff as always Roman! Thank you.

@Beaver314 2 года назад

One of the most helpful and informative videos on the subject I've seen in a while

@marthamidon.9292 Год назад

Thanks Roman for these tips, it helps a lot. (we never stop learning about photography).

@efferoconsultingabprojects3500 2 года назад

Spot on Roman! Subscribed. When I can carve out time to do photography I tend to find myself in the forest. And 99% of the keepers are images captured toward the light. Keep up the good work!

@MisAnkic Год назад

Amazing video! Well explained and directed to the point.

@addsy6396 2 года назад

Thank you! This really helps so much. I guess, I’ve always been drawn to capture images with a certain tonal quality but never quite understood what it was that made them that way. It was normally dumb luck when I came across scenes that looked appealing. This kind of puts the power back in my hands to make the images happen rather than stumble upon them

@ivanbarker 2 года назад

Love your videos Roman. Been watching you for roughly a year now since I first started taking photography more seriously. Interesting, extremely informative and unique compared to a lot of other photography RU-vidrs. Also love the simple, slightly minimalistic style (Maybe that's just my interpretation, but I like it). Big fan, will be following your journey for as long as you do RU-vid. Keep it up!

@rogeralien 10 месяцев назад

@victorcarmelo8606 2 года назад

Another wonderful video about making sense of the most important part of photography, light. No hip language, no gimmicks, just plain logic and common sense yet still very interesting and entertaining too. Well done young man. Thanks.

@rickmears7670 2 года назад

Very well said with clear examples! I often close one eye to flatten 3D scenes when looking about.

@nomad062 Год назад

One of the most useful tutorials I've seen. Thank you!

@jaminescudero1204 2 года назад

this was literally the most informative and simple video on lighting

@holgerschlomer2345 2 года назад

I agree that you can learn a lot about photography by watching films from experienced teams. Thank you for sharing your experience with us here for free. I appreciate it very much. Without people like you I would never have become such a good hobby photographer.

@mattellis6643 2 года назад

Really good explanation! You're teaching people what matters.

@AsianGargamel 2 года назад

I have gone through quite some yt tutorials about photography but I didn't come across this advice. Very helpful, thanks for sharing 😃

@kiaorioncreative Год назад

amazing advice brother. thank you!

@neilmarshment2910 2 года назад

Great video. One of my photographic passions is street photography. I use light all the time and cinematic crops to add drama and life.

@amalieemmynoether992 2 года назад

I knew of the importance of lighting in principal but it never made real sense until this video. Thankyou!

@bobfancy77 2 года назад

Excellent video, thank you. Really articulate and informative.

@nikluth Год назад

Excellent advice. I always try to think of a 90 degree or equilateral triangle when positioning myself, the subject, and light. It's a good starting point and you can adjust from there.

@TonyCYeung 2 года назад

I came across Mr. Fox's video by chance and I am glad I did. Roman speaks clearly and the material he presents are well structured and organized. I surely have greatly benefited from learning from him.

@sexysilversurfer 2 года назад

Interesting bit about the warm colour tone of the low in sky sunlight and the cool tones of the shade, I have seen it but never thought about it as a creative tool.

@neildunlop1574 2 года назад

Probably the best, most concise discussion of light with the most impact that I've ever heard. So simple it hurts but stunningly effective. A real 'ah-ha' moment for me!

@TheArtist441 9 месяцев назад

Absolutely fantastic video. I’ve heard people say that light is the most important thing, but it never clicked, until this video. I’ve been on the hunt for creating the most amount of 3D depth in my photos and your video put the most important piece of the puzzle in for me, in an understandable way!

@christophersmithphotograph2275 2 года назад

This might just be the most important video I've ever come across! Thank you for pointing out the obvious that just isn't so obvious...all very well presented and spot on. You Sir have my attention.

@VladNikiforov 2 года назад

@victorparadise5878 Год назад

@bruh-qi7ue 2 года назад

If these are all your photos that you've showcased... I think you might be the best photographer I've ever checked out, and you are a huge inspiration to my work

@rickguzman9463 2 года назад

As an amateur who's just getting into photography, this succinct advice about side and back lighting is just what I needed to hear. I'm just in the point of my (street photography) learning journey where I'm beginning to pay attention to light sources. Thanks for the helpful video.

@barryobrien1890 2 года назад

Excellent video Roman. I guess that puts to bed the old adage "never shoot a picture into the sun". I really like the advice from photographer Bryan Petersen. - All photographs are just contrast. I have tried to use this and look for contrasting light or color to bring out my subject. I like your practical tips a lot. Thanks for sharing 😃

@hukumongdu Год назад

@user-tg8sc7wm6t 3 месяца назад

Thank you so much, Roman! I'm a beginner in photography, and I need to literally teach my class about it for an assignment! I've been into it for about 2 years, but because I'm in middle school, I haven't had much time, or the camera... until now from my mother, because she used to be a photographer. You helped so much!

@cliffterpher 2 года назад

Thnx for sharing your thoughts and secrets. If I'm able to capture a small part of this I'll be delighted

@snappic2867 2 года назад

Haha Roman - I Watch all your videos and to be honest I thought at the beginning. There can’t be anything new for me. And now I had the same „aha“-Moment like your Workshop member. I think my photos are quite okay. Some are great. Many not so great in comparison to good photographer. But now I think I had understand the difference where the light have to come. Thank you .....Greetz from 🇩🇪

@globally123 2 года назад

Cheers Roman I enjoyed it thanks

@jamesamoh7340 2 года назад

Roman, I swear you’re a genius. After watching the video, I tried a self portrait with side lighting and backlight, and OMG what a difference it made. It’s not a banger but clearly you can see improvement compared to what I was taking before. 🙏 🙏 🙏
