The red liquid coming out of your steak is not blood, but a mixture of water and a protein called myoglobin. Myoglobin is found in muscle tissue and gives meat its red colour. When heated, it releases water, which mixes with the myoglobin, giving the appearance of blood, but it is completely safe and normal - and most definitely not blood!
Yeah of course, I'm just saying when we rented a room to stay in Cinque Terre, I think we stayed in Vernazza (the location in this photo). We didn't stay in any of the other 4 villages but we did photograph a bunch of them. -Patrick
Appreciate you! Picture something like a flexible tripod attached to a broken off branch which I somehow managed to get to stick between some branches on the tree. It wasn’t very stable-literally it was dangling in the wind 😂
If you put the iPhone on a tripod, it senses no movement and allows exposure of 30 seconds. That plus light painting and computational photography enables Milky Way shots like this one.
Finding something to place the phone on is kind of easy, the tripod is often the best way. But how come, there are no startrails? I can expose 20 sec the most. Longer exposures lead to startrails. With 30 sec I get no sharp circles anymore. At least in my cases or in my areas I take photos.
Shooting RAW on phones is pretty commonplace these days. That big cloud shot would have been pretty easy to get. As long as there's good light, great pics from phones or matchbooks - for that matter - are routinely done.
This was so cool... I'm still sad the portrait competition with Peter Hurley left me with a bad taste. Please redo that one with those same entries. Love you guys
For the Northern Lights it also depends how strong they are at the time. Where I work there are nights where they are very bright and sharp. I actually have to turn off night mode or it just gets too intense. 5 minutes later you cant see them at all
On Android phones, you can hold down the VOLUME UP button on the side of the phone to shoot in burst mode, but I believe this is not available when shooting RAW. iPhone has the same feature for shooting burst mode, but not sure if it applies to RAW or not, as I am an Android user.
Finally, alter seeing the video and listening your advices there is one picture which stayed in my mind: the one with cine like color grading the man walking and the taxi waiting in Tokyo…😊
Thanks Lee for cheering us up with the meat market processing info, yum yum 🤒. This doesn't happen often but I agree with Lee about the Leopard image👍 but I lean a little more in favor of Patrick on the last image. It's great when you two have varied opinions on an image, because I can see both points of view, which means images can be subjective, who knew 😲😍 Great stuff guys👍👍
Man, listening to these two complain about how ‘bad’ these really good photos were was mind boggling. I’ve been a professional for 10 years, but I’m assuming a lot of the entries were submitted by people without a ton of professional experience. I’m reminded of a quote by Theodore Roosevelt: “it’s not the critic who counts-not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat…”
For your info, the red liquid coming out of steaks isn't colorant 🤣, it's water containing myoglobin. It's a protein similar to hemoglobin (found in the blood). It stores oxygen molecules in the muscles.
Yeah, I knew it wasn't full blown blood. It's gotta be related to blood though, but it's not like you are drinking the blood from the animal...although what difference does it make, it's still a dead animal! -P
That first photo looked to have some weirdness to it, maybe ai. The stream kinda turns weird into the feet. The buildings on the side brick doesn't match. Window seal disappears.
9:50, lad just put some isopropyl alcohol on a cotton bud (q-tip?) and rub it into the charging port Then use something reaaally tiny like a sim-pin or paperclip to dig out all the dirt and lint from the phone. Voila! Now u got a good-as-new charging port P.s. the lint is from all the years of you jamming the phone into your pockets and packing in all the dirt into the speaker and ports. Its not a bad issue, its just a common one
I do super appreciate these breakdowns... sometimes my favorite part is when you override the submission with a simple color correction, or crop... seems to me it allows us as the viewers to see the other potential in our own work. Also side note: I don't always agree with your takeaway, but for me that's the whole point of this exercise. TBH I wouldn't know what to submit to you guys anyways.. as I try to avoid privileged locations. Travel is for the rich, and rich, I am not! I try to shoot things that thousands of people have walked past only for ME to see the beauty in some drab punk rock sticker in a windowsill crested from phantom light.
There are beautiful places in all of our back yards. It’s your job to 1) find them and 2) capture them at the best time of day/lighting. I get tired of the same old locations myself. -P
That ugly high rise right next to the Manhattan Bridge has been there for a few years. The archways are located in Brooklyn Bridge park and have been there for many years
Yep, I gave up out of frustration. Maybe with Chat GPT it would be easier but I had all this stuff syncing across different devices and facetime not working (because you have to enable the macbook to access it's own camera and that's not the default for the facetime app, like wtf). Everything was such a nuisance and I was getting literally no work done and spending hours just trying to figure out how to do simple tasks like get two monitors to work, minimize a window, stop syncing my iphone to my laptop, understanind folder structures, etc. I almost had an anxiety attack every day so I had to stop. -P
There are only so many themes you can make that allow a lot of people to participate. We thought about Halloween but how many great photos are there from a genre that specific? -P
@@FStoppers fashion, aerial, macro, sports, nature, drone...? Tons of good categories, I love your critiques but it's the same categories over and over. You don't need hundreds of submissions every month, even 50 great images in a genre that's a bit different would be better, in my opinion.
It would be hilarious for them to do a reverse engineer shot challenge. Like how Bon Appétit does for food. Patrick "Ok I dont know whats going on here... is that a horse?" "Sir, that is a space ship."
Yeah they do! I have some friends who intentionally have non smart phones that limit their online usage. It’s weird but it’s kind of like non alcoholic beer. -P
Great content. Why does your studio shot video look so bad? It’s washed out and lacking contrast. All the b roll ads and still photos look great, so you obviously know what you’re doing.

"I think we stayed in this village."
Patrick, bro, that's the exact same viewpoint Elia shot in the tutorial, only more zoomed in.
Yeah of course, I'm just saying when we rented a room to stay in Cinque Terre, I think we stayed in Vernazza (the location in this photo). We didn't stay in any of the other 4 villages but we did photograph a bunch of them. -Patrick
@@FStoppers Oh, gotcha!
They should consider changing the prizes. I don't think these photographers have anything to learn from their courses.
😅
That last shot was better than a 2, but definitely not shot on a standard tripod.
Appreciate you! Picture something like a flexible tripod attached to a broken off branch which I somehow managed to get to stick between some branches on the tree. It wasn’t very stable-literally it was dangling in the wind 😂
@@zenharth nice good job man, was a good picture imo

10:37 It's some sort of crane, to load and unload the truck bed.

The Yoshinova one looks like the Hopper painting, the Nighthawks vibe

30:30 feels like if Tron was shot during the '50s or '60s
Great Video!

He said he wouldn't put that on his wall, but I would!
Congrats to the 3rd photo!
A friend that does portraits keeps a 5gl bucket on a rope to grab water from the lake or river to get refections.

We literally call it critique the community. People know what their submission are subject to if we critique them. -P

@@FStoppers indeed, in the end it's all cells, muscle, blood, skin, fat. It's the big recycling chain, taking from one to give to another.
Guys, don't you know how iphones work? the images are manufactured by combining multiple exposures.. 'Highly processed' is the default output.
2:58 am I the only one who thinks this looks like he peed in an alley 😂.
That first photo looked to have some weirdness to it, maybe ai. The stream kinda turns weird into the feet. The buildings on the side brick doesn't match. Window seal disappears.
A print on your wall you say? 🤣
a ladder could be a "makeshift tripod"
Hey siri take a screenshot
9:50, lad just put some isopropyl alcohol on a cotton bud (q-tip?) and rub it into the charging port
Then use something reaaally tiny like a sim-pin or paperclip to dig out all the dirt and lint from the phone. Voila! Now u got a good-as-new charging port

The red you see from cooking the meat is myoglobin, It's not blood. (Your steak is probably not colored)

Welp I'm a Vegetarian now
Btw, wasn't Patrick suppose to be using a Mac for a limited time and then report how he did?
Yep, I gave up out of frustration.

I buy my meat fresh from a local farm, so yes, for me, the red liquid is blood.
The next category is... Landscapes? Same old, same old.

2:50 to skip random stuff
Its so funny how wrong patricks guesses are on whats going on in the shots lol
It would be hilarious for them to do a reverse engineer shot challenge. Like how Bon Appétit does for food. Patrick "Ok I dont know whats going on here... is that a horse?" "Sir, that is a space ship."
Lining up with all the other "photographers" for "iconic" images is so lame. Get your own ideas, sheeple.
Do we still need to call them smart phones? Do non smart phones still exist?
Yeah they do! I have some friends who intentionally have non smart phones that limit their online usage. It’s weird but it’s kind of like non alcoholic beer. -P
@@FStoppers that’s a great analogy!
That is a crane on truck. And I agree, looks ugly.
It is called rolling coal.
