Just wanted to take a moment to say how super satisfying the colour grading in this video is.

@alexmccull 3 года назад

This is hands down the best photo video I've ever seen on RU-vid, this is the type of photography lessons I've been looking for, really appreciate the work dude.

@joelwolski 3 года назад

Dude, you just won RU-vid. I have watched SO many hours of photography content and all of it combined did not contain anything as complete and coherent as what you've just presented here. I'm only 5 videos into your channel and you've become my newest photography hero.

@nikkop 3 года назад

man, you've articulated a good way to approach developing one's vision so well. thank you for this! 🙌🏻

@patkay 3 года назад

anytime! my pleasure :)

@dericmedley8800 Год назад

the reason this only has one comment other than mine in a year is because it said everything needed to be said, no more no less

@corbinkitchner3435 3 года назад

The most helpful photography video on RU-vid! I see so many beginners focus on camera/gear, Hacks and tips and tricks to get better and forget about story! Well said dude. I find I’m very particular with my photography and video work now, I will normally have a vision in my mind of what the story/emotion I want to convey and it makes shooting so much easier as you said because your shooting with intention and not just pointing your camera at something that looks “nice”

@cbpersel Год назад

Excellent. I would add another important element to a photographer's vision and development. As you state, one is "pattern recognition" but there is another I would call "content recognition". Two examples of this are people's expressions and people's activities. This vision is particularly important to a certain segment of the street photography genre. With these photographers, much of the pattern recognition you've outlined is either ignored or of secondary importance to the interesting, unusual, mysterious, candid, etc. expressions and activities of the people in the photograph. That said .. there are street photographers that straddle that line between fine art photography (where pattern recognition is important) and street photography (where human expressions and actions are important). They skillfully combine them both. Thanks again for the great video.

@paull1074 3 года назад

This is perhaps the most informative thing on photography I have seen on youtube. Thank you for posting this. It re-framed (pun intended!) how to look at composition and vision in a way that made me re-think my old habits. Please keep it up! :)

@tkestowicz 3 года назад

Your exlainations are phenomenal! You're incredibly good teacher. My understanding of photography grew after watching this video, thank you!

@EmAstonish 3 года назад

This video should be mandatory viewing for every photography student. Very crisp and clear. Great example image and well articulated. Thanks for your thoughts and insights.

@lunawang6800 Год назад

Yes yes, way better than others

@arufactor 3 года назад

Subbed instantly. I am so glad I found this channel because it feels like I finally found someone who is not only good at photography but is also so approachable. Love the simplification of things and a reference to language in most of your videos is an add-on for me as a lit graduate. I'm a freelance photographer and I'm sure your channel will help me hone my skills! Keep up :)

@joshhu02 2 года назад

I've finally found someone who explained my subconscious thought process. Way back, my photography teacher said I had an eye for what is a beautiful photo but I think this is what she really meant. Most educational photo video I've ever watched thanks for this.

@Sauceyr Год назад

Wow, what a great video - your content is so profound! Concise, informative, authentic, actionable - keep it up!

@lizetteroni5410 2 года назад

@lorrettaclarke709 3 года назад

This is one of the best photography videos I have seen - thanks Pat, cant wait to see more worthwhile tips from you.

@sjenkin88 2 года назад

Bro…. I’m pausing the video at about the 3-minute point. I think this is maybe the second or third video of yours that’s I’ve watch. The content is spot on, genuinely helpful information which will actually benefit many photographers on many different levels. Top work. Thank you. Oh and for reference, I found you bc you created a video explain exactly what the ‘collaboration’ tool does in LR. Pretty much one of the best editing videos I’ve watched on RU-vid.

@osikawiafe3176 3 года назад

This is what I have been looking for years thanks so much, bro love to see more

@CamboMeng 2 года назад

Jam packed with great advice for aspiring photographers… you sold the VISION!

@geglover90 2 года назад

Absolutely incredible! I’ve watched hundreds of photography videos the last five weeks and this is easily the best. Extremely clear. Thank you for describing the core of what matters!

@LeonKolenda 3 года назад

This video has given me more confidence then ever before to create what I call Artography. I'm a older Photographer, and my work in my mind has always been criticized by myself too much. This video tells me I have a visual mind, and what I have been doing, and succeeding, and failing at. It's confirmation for me. Very well articulated, this is colligate level teaching! I subscribed. Well done! Looking forward to more on this.

@joshmoxey. 2 года назад

Incredible video, man. Had to subscribe after. Really love the idea of no shortcuts but a promised trajectory over time if you put in the work to developing your vision, and how you think about photographic elements as having pre-defined meaning. Also really appreciated the breakdown of your own beautiful photo as an example is worth a million dollars to my brain.

@tevo639 3 года назад

thank you so much for the detailed explanation on how to develop that vision! this was a different approach than expected but in a good way! need to practice all these patterns asap ✌️

This way of introducing the concept of visual language is amazing. So many things clicked in this video, thanks a bunch

@elogenishi.534 2 года назад

This is great. I believe this could have been titled a "composition" video, but the way you've articulated it around "vision" makes the same principles apply to different arts (I can see this applying to music and guitar playing for example). The way you took a step back from camera settings, then from composition techniques, to visual language is genius and beautiful. Thanks.

@ajay762 2 года назад

The intro is so me! Thats the reason why I’ve got into photography 🙌🏽

@jboggan6794 Год назад

It's a blessing to have stumbled across your channel. THANK YOU!!!!!!

@joshmartonosi5624 Год назад

I've been watching photography videos for years on RU-vid, and this might be the best one on the topic of composition! Bravo! You are an excellent teacher.

@johndurrant9929 3 года назад

Very instructional Pat. Thank you. I will try to apply some of that tomorrow!

@incubus505 3 года назад

Man, the words you used to explain your point of view on this subject where so enjoyable to listen. Thanks for taht! It's hard to find this kind of quality where you can feel a real human being on the other side 🙌

@eva.maaike Год назад

I love your honesty and depth of truth so much. It is helping me so much to get out of my creative bubble and just start sharing my work so I can actually grow and learn from what I make. Thank you for sharing 🙏

@suhangyin8872 3 года назад

This is really helpful. I have watched multiple videos talking about the rules, I searched all skills of photography, but I am still confusion of how to take a great photo. Today as watching your video I realized all skills other RU-vidr gave is a “body” and how to strengthen it. And your video gives the “heart” or “soul” of the body really thank you,.

@perrymacimages 3 года назад

Absolutely Awesome! Thank you so much for sharing. I believe my photography will change from this moment forward. I believe I will finally begin to visually express myself, instead of technically taking pictures. Subbed immediately.

@mishkalarsoncreations Год назад

Great perspective - I joined VERO because I’m back in the photography game and figured it wound be a good way to have some focus and learn. But I’ve hardly gone on it. It’s just another thing I have to think about doing. So it’s pushed me to analyze the platforms I’m on, why, and whether or not I will continue on all of them. Thanks for always being true and transparent.

@spxffy5926 3 года назад

This is what I was looking for! This is not only a way to get better at photography but to find your style! (Which is very important IMO) VERY HELPFUL

@TodobienconCali_star 2 года назад

Something about your vibe on learning different and new techniques has had me hooked! I subscribed after viewing the video of 4 simple ways. Super eye opener. thank you!!!

@pixienix 3 года назад

wow you're such an eloquent speaker, I really appreciate it 🙏🏻 it makes sense though bc you're able to not only grasp but also articulate the visual communication you talk about 🙌🏻

@BCBTC2012 3 года назад

Thank you so much for the video. After watching it, I found I can find some of those patterns and glad Im on the right way

@KrzyAZ 3 года назад

Tell it like it is! This is the first video of yours that I have watched. You were able to explain to me some of the things I "didn't know that I didn't know". Thanks for that. I'm going to spend some time watchiing the rest of your content. Subscribed.

@MrMolotov69 3 года назад

Ideas and vision always trumps technical perfection

@andresm645 3 года назад

Such a good video. I love how you explain some of the theory and "abstract" part of it, but you also go on and give practical advice on how to improve on it. A lot of advice on these things tend to stop with the first part, leaving the viewer without any real guidance on how to begin the journey.

@patkay 3 года назад

glad you think so! i spent a lot of time thinking about photography and also how to teach it as well, so this means a lot. thanks!

@alainbadan9345 3 года назад

Something fresh, fast and that speaks to me. I'm with this permanent reflection to go one level further (break my skill ceiling), it's difficult in practice to assemble a lot of languages, but it's important to know your alphabet to compose your vocabulary. The exercise of concentrating on a subject is a very good start, what you say goes in the right direction for me, I like the calm and rhythm of your speech. Greetings from Switzerland (the other Japan without the sea).

@stride82288 2 года назад

@aronlengyel 3 года назад

Fantastic educational video! This got to be one of the best video on photography that I have watched on RU-vid. A must-watch, I think. Thank you so much for sharing it!

@jeffmanser2345 3 года назад

This is absolutely one of the most helpful and insightful videos I’ve come across as I try to figure out how to improve as a photographer. I knew I couldn’t speak the language of photography and was relegated to words like “nice”, “beautiful”, and “great shot”, when asked to comment on others’ images in our camera club meetings. Your video really helped my understanding of what I could do to learn to speak photography. Please consider doing other videos where you take us through an image as you did in this video. Thanks so much for the great insights!

@vblakely 3 года назад

Wow! I have learned many approaches to photography with rules and breaking rules, vision and niche, but this is the first time I heard this type of approach for developing vision. The way explained it really got me thinking more. Also I like your recommendation of trying each pattern for a week and learn them. Thank you. Excellent content! 👍
