    Tom, you have touched very sensitive topic. I agree and I don't. Basically we accepted black and white photos for decades but they have nothing to do with reality. 🙂 Because photography is a form of art it's very subjective. If we just think about Picasso and his famous distorted portraits. They were a conclusion of something. And I think we can use this approach to photography as well. At the end the photos we re creating are a conclusion or interpretation of our mood, circumstances, creative possibilities and so on. I would say they are a reflection of the message we want to convey. We just don't have to label them as "reality".

    Hello Tom, this is Bernd from Germany. This is a short but helpfull video concerning autumn photography. Great! There´s one additional remark concerning tip 1: Go out and photograph when there´s mist or after rain showers. Specially beech trees (pine trees too) get black and more seperated from the foliage. By a circulare polarizer you can reduce the reflections on the leaves.

  • @peterandhiscat
    @peterandhiscat 21 день назад

    This is good, but I think your channel is at its best when it's telling people not to get hung up on camera settings (or equipment) just think about composition, location, theme etc There's far too much on RUclips already about gear and technical issues, and far too little about composition and the artistic aspects of good photography. Your channel helps fill that gap and I'd say that that's your special superpower :) People can take great photos just leaving the camera on auto if their composition and subject matter is good, but they can't take great photos if their composition or subject matter is bad, no matter how clever their camera settings are!

    • @peterandhiscat
      @peterandhiscat 21 день назад

      PS except for extreme conditions, e.g. your video on setting up for a night shoot, which rightly gives advice on manual settings!

    @awatercolourist 22 дня назад

    Hello all! I don’t entirely agree with point 8. My mobile camera has this horrible tendency to desaturate colours quite a bit and darken the image when using the telephoto lens. Increasing the saturation and/or vibrancy as well as the brightness is necessary to get more accurate colours.

    • @yorkshirephotowalks
      @yorkshirephotowalks 14 дней назад

      Yes, I think you're right due to the lens limitations sometimes phone photos do need a bit of extra help.

    • @peterandhiscat
      @peterandhiscat 21 день назад

      I was rather surprised by this comment, so I checked it - it's wrong. ISO film speed is indeed based on "an ISO standard The ISO (International Organization of Standards) 12232:2019 standard" - so says Wikipedia!

    One wee secret. Watch the light on a composition.....360 degree circle. Don't be afraid to pause, look back on the walk.

    • @robertspeicher5047
      @robertspeicher5047 24 дня назад

      An added note. Some times. Shrink the composition. Try to create a desire of " wanting to enter your work. I had an experience , one early spring day. I was scouting, no camera, for future sites. Came upon a small " woods" . No grass ..just bare ground. The circle of trees, branches so enclosed, sunlight did not get in. The leaves had just emerged. Enough to shut out the sun's rays but acted like color lenses. I was standing in a bright emerald green light. All I could do was just enjoy the light. It was kind of like an " OZ " moment. Went back many times over the spring seasons. That moment never happened again.

    It reminds me of a program I saw on the TV. It was an auction of contemporary art. The one that surprised me was of a plain white background with a black brush stroke of no particular meaning, it sold for 80, 000,000 that's eighty million dollars. I'm not sure what is happening to the world but as I get older the more insane it appears to get. I could produce the same thing for ten pounds, canvas included but I would blush at the thought of calling it art.

    Thank you for the video. I'm a newbie to photography and just bought my first camera ever. It's a Nicon D850. It was expensive even second hand, but I've just retired and need something to occupy my time. I haven't yet bought a lens for my camera and was wondering if you could advise me on which lens I should purchase first. My interest is landscape but some portrait as well. Thank you for any advice you can give me. I've subscribed and liked. 😁👌

    • @yorkshirephotowalks
      @yorkshirephotowalks 24 дня назад

      Thank you for the comment, like & subscription. I am a big advocate of prime (fixed focal length) lenses. I think every photographer should own a 50mm prime (f1.8 or wider), they can be very versatile and provide excellent image quality. I would advise against getting zoom lenses that cover wide angles to telephotos as you compromise on quality. In terms of zoom lenses, something like a 24-70mm would also be a good option, giving width for landscapes and a tighter crop for portraits. This is a topic I must do a video on, so stay tuned! I hope this advice helps for now.
