Your videos have really gone to the next level since you've transitioned from mostly camera reviews to the art of photography. This one was fascinating. Thank you very much. You're the best.

Wow, I really loved this episode Ted. I’m always blown away by the photographers and their work you expose in your videos like these. It truly is inspiring and gets me excited and motivated.

@MeAMuse 2 года назад

Best episode you have had in a long time Ted.... and there have been a lot of great episodes. For me what works here is taking a simple concept (layers), and then keep going a layer deeper.... I am already trying to think of how I would go to the next level in this concept (e.g. times, seasons, weather, movement).

@drmatthewhorkey 2 года назад

I LOOOOOVE the videos that you do on composition theory... this one and the one with the paper cutout exercise.

@lneleven1708 2 года назад

I love the way you educate, it’s clear, concise and from a place of experience. Great video and I have come away from this with a little extra knowledge myself. Thank you

Ted; channeling his days of when he was teaching photography. A great episode and such an important topic.

@allencrider 2 года назад

I really like Meyerson's work. Thanks for showing that. I also am reminded of Stephen Shore's work often showing layering in his large-format compositions.

@MetinSenler 2 года назад

I‘ve been following you for years now. You have been getting better and better and I LOVE your voice over videos, your evolved style and your general work ethic. I hope you give yourself a high five from time to time. I‘ll give you one digitally ✋

Wow, thank you Ted. I haven't heard of Gianni Berengo Gardin before and I definitely look him up. These two masters are incredible in bringing photography to the highest level.

@jerryeisner1 2 года назад

You did a truly awesome tutorial showing and explaining how two master photographers use layering/framing/ and composing to create brilliant and timeless photographic Art. Thank YOU so much!

@henryrogers5500 2 года назад

You have a valuable gift for articulately adlibbing your videos without a script, Ted. I learn so much about photography from watching your videos! Thanks.

@tamilhoward9708 Год назад

A bit late to this party (the video) but this is why I grew to love your channel. So much information and inspiration. We all have plenty of gear but we need to get out there and use it and sharpen our vision. Thanks Ted!

@davidjb9199 Год назад

Glad to see you produce this video. It was for content like this that I subscribed in the first place. Nice job.

@matthew_thefallen 2 года назад

@lomeroger4101 2 года назад

I'm glad we still have channels like this one where we can listen to a real, experienced artist who understands the photography craft. I'm sick of those young boys, holding their “vintage” or latest cameras and vomiting words, repeating pre-made sentences that they never actually studied but just heard from someone without even understanding. We are on the verge of not having anyone else to learn from or just to talk about this artform that shows life from a special and unique perspective. Thank you!

@christopherherrick703 2 года назад

Thx much! I can always count on you to teach a concept and to keep it fresh… it seems all the other RU-vidrs go on and on about gear. I like to know about new gear, but it gets old after a while. You always seem to have something good up your sleeve! Love your stuff!

@WatchesAndPhotography 2 года назад

Ted just makes the gear videos to pay the bills and make content like this for us to enjoy! At least that’s what I tell myself :D

@ottersphotography304 2 года назад

Simply put, the content you create expands my mind and my horizons, and it enriches my work. Thank you for all the content and education you provide us with.

Great video lesson Ted, do you think these Masters are creating their works subconsciously, by experience or by technical understanding of composition? Simply beautiful works here, thanks for introducing them to me.

@NetGawker Год назад

The last image, proof that inspiration can come from anything - Seurat’s work is certainly iconic, never would have thought to attempt a study of it like that.

@philipthomas8032 2 года назад

Excellent video on composition once again. I recognized the technique, and now I know what it's called! Another master of layering (and someone who I would love to see covered on the show in the style of the artist profiles you did some years ago) is Ray Metzker. Some f his street work, and especially the pictus interreptus series, use layering to really great effect.

@webmaster4ZLCB 2 года назад

Wonderful video, thanks for making and sharing.

@jasonphilbrook4332 2 года назад

Stieglitz "the steerage" mixes layering composition, lines composition pretty nicely for an early historical modern photo.

@sevsuk2011 2 года назад

I think Alex Webb is the master of layering, how he 'fills the corners' is genius. 'The Suffering of light' is a masterpiece. Great video Ted.

@error60091 2 года назад

This video describes exactly how I see/analyze street photos and how I am trying to improve my own work... wonder though, what are good ways to go from two layers to three or more, esp if you are not in a street scene or if you are in a street scene but there are little to no people to anchor the comp? I know that photography is as you say "subtractive," but I ask in earnest because a lot of great street shots are so layered.... anyways, thanks for this and look forward to more comp vids

@charliewaterman816 2 года назад

Love the video and topic 👍

@csb65536 2 года назад

This video was recommended by another RU-vid channel. It is a great insight into understanding what layers can add and how to use them. However my question(s) concerning overall composition is much too detailed (probably too long winded) to ask here. But it seems I can recognize when one of my photos “works” and when others don’t. But I don’t know the why’s even after having artists as well as others with an artistic eye agree with my recognition of a good vs not so good photo. To be honest, this video on layers helped me a lot on that specific area. Thank you.

Interesting. Don't recall ever seeing about the "layering" technique. Probably the closest would be depth of field. Will definitely give this a go.

Outstanding video Ted! This is one of my favorite techniques - like you said i enjoy images that are "at the edge of abstraction." Great to see these examples, and the detailed description. Will have to check out those books!

Hi Ted, can you explain in the layering is all parts (fG, mid & bg) in sharp focus of is this just the composition and making sure we have all 3 components in the frame? Thanks and btw, really enjoy your videos.
