Thanks for the comment, Martin! Namibia sounds like an amazing place for black-and-white photography, especially with the intense light and unique desert landscapes. I have to admit, I’m not familiar with the Fuji APSC primes or the Silver Efex plugin you mentioned, but they sound like powerful tools for the kind of work you’re planning. I’d love to hear how they perform and see the results from your trip-sounds like a fantastic opportunity to capture something really special!

@@oppositeofh8 Wow, thank you! It means a lot to hear that the video inspired you. I’m excited that you’re heading out to shoot-those challenges are all about growth, and I know you’ll create something amazing. Keep it up!

Really appreciate that! I’m glad this advice hit home-helping new photographers is exactly what I aim for.

You’re most welcome-I’m glad you found it helpful!

@@PhotoswithArt Thanks so much for watching and for the kind words! Really glad you found it helpful. I’ve got more coming soon-hope you’ll stick around!

@@SPDskills You’re most welcome. Thank you for watching

Thank you, Jeremy! I really appreciate that. Hearing that you’re learning and finding the videos helpful means a lot-it’s what keeps me going. I’ll keep putting in the work to bring you more content you’ll enjoy. Much respect!

In my opinion when you’re just starting and don’t yet have a portfolio, it’s worth considering offering a few free sessions to build experience and showcase your work. Free sessions allow you to experiment, develop confidence, and create a diverse portfolio that will help attract paying clients in the future. Once you’ve gained some experience and have a few examples of your work, you can transition into charging modest rates. Many beginner photographers start with a range of $50-$150 per session, which helps cover basic costs (like time, editing, and equipment) while remaining affordable for potential clients. This approach balances building your skills and establishing the value of your work as you grow.

Thank you for watching and I’m glad to hear you’re experimenting with the techniques. While Auto ISO can be convenient in certain situations, for night photography, I usually shoot in manual ISO for better control over noise and exposure. Keep practicing, and feel free to revisit the video anytime-let me know if you have any other questions or need more tips!

Thank you for the kind words Dorrie. I’m really glad my tutorial was able to help out. My primary goal is to provide clear and cohesive advice, so it means a lot to hear you found it straightforward and valuable. I’ll try to stay consistent with that. Welcome to the channel, and I look forward to sharing more tips and techniques with you!

@@providencephotographydfw I will definitely stay tuned! Happy Holidays! 😃

Welcome aboard! I hope you find the content useful.

Thanks for watching!

Thank you, Mike. I really appreciate your kind words-it means a lot to hear that the tutorial hit the mark for you. I’m glad you found it helpful!

Thank you for sharing this-it really means a lot to know the video was helpful to you. Working overnight and not having much time to shoot during the day is definitely a challenge, so I’m glad the tips resonated and gave you something you can use.

@@hymanlevy2265 Thank you for your kind words! Glad you enjoyed it-there’s plenty more exciting content on the way, so stay tuned!

I appreciate the comment. No, it doesn’t. It’s a common misconception-one I held myself until recently. A few weeks ago, @mariuszh4611 clarified that increasing ISO doesn’t allow more light to reach the sensor; instead, it amplifies the signal from the light already captured. This distinction was an important one for me to learn, and I’m glad to share it here to help clarify for anyone who might have the same question or misconception.

Hi Martin, thank you for the feedback. I’m glad the content was clear and useful for you. I currently use a Nikon Z7II, and Nikon Z6.

I really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts. It’s always great to connect with others who are passionate about photography. The Z6ii is a fantastic tool-wishing you all the best as you keep exploring and creating!

Thank you for the feedback! I completely understand where you’re coming from. This is a known issue with that particular video, and unfortunately, it’s not something I can correct at this point. However, I’ve since made adjustments to the background music in all videos created after this one, ensuring it stays balanced and doesn’t overpower the dialogue. I appreciate your understanding and your input-it’s always helpful!

Thanks for the heads-up, bro! Safety is always a priority, no matter where you’re shooting, but I try to stay prepared and aware wherever I go. Dallas has some amazing spots, and being cautious just comes with the territory of chasing those perfect shots.

@@anthonywright5141 Thank you! Glad you found the content helpful.

That sounds like a cool project! Shooting at night with flashlights can definitely create an awesome vibe. A few quick tips: use a tripod to keep your shots steady, especially for long exposures. Play with the flashlight to create shadows or partially light your subject for a mysterious effect. Long exposures can make cool light trails if the flashlight moves. Keep your ISO high enough to capture enough light but not so high that noise becomes a problem. You might want to bring a small portable light to fill in shadows if needed without overpowering the flashlight. Experiment with low angles or shooting through bushes for that “in the wilderness” look. In editing, you could use cooler tones or muted greens to give it that nighttime hunting vibe. Would love to see how it turns out-sounds like a fun shoot!

@@oo0RECON0oo Thank you and thanks for watching

No problem!

Glad you enjoyed it!

@@providencephotographydfw I'm going to watch it again and take notes especially using red light in the dark, that's a great tip

@@Western-Ranger. Glad you’re finding the info useful. I learned about the red light tip just before a night sky/Milky Way session. Came in really handy.

@@paultrunfull3324 Very much appreciated. That’s pretty much my goal …. to remain consistent, concise, and to ensure that what i’m delivering is correct! Thank you for taking the time to watch.

That’s a great solution! Shooting in both JPEG and RAW gives you so much versatility. You get the convenience of ready-to-use JPEGs with your preferred B&W look, while the RAW files act as a safety net in case you want to experiment with editing later or need a color version. It’s definitely the best of both worlds and keeps your options open!

Thank you so much for the kind feedback! I’m glad you found the tutorial clear and to the point.

Thank you for the thoughtful feedback! It’s great to hear that the clarity and structure resonated with you. I’m excited to explore more topics and bring even more valuable content in the future!

Glad you liked it!

@@adventure6639 Thank you! Much appreciated. It means a lot coming from someone with over 20 years of night photography under their belt. Thanks again for watching and supporting!

Thank you!! And welcome aboard.

Wow!! Incredible comment. Thanks for sharing, Carl! Your explanation of ISO really helped expand my understanding, especially the analogy to gain in microbiology-that’s such a clear way to think about it. I also found the point about ISO in the film days fascinating, with the crystals absorbing photons and higher ISO films actually being more sensitive. That adds a lot of historical context to how ISO works today. I appreciate your thoughtful and detailed comment-it’s always great to learn something new!

@@ZulMOHAMAD.PHOTOGRAPHY Thank you!!

Thank you for the kind words! I always aim to present material the way I’d want to hear it myself, so it’s great to know it resonates. Your example with the Sony 6700 is spot on and incredibly useful for crop-sensor users. Cheers to you in Vancouver, Canada!

Much appreciated!!
