Jared, I get it these may not do great, but honestly these are my favorite because I learn the most. Photo critiques and videos of you showcasing photos you have taken (the mlb series at the end of last season was AMAZING) are by far my favorite.
Daniela, thank you for your courage to be critiqued and thank you also for showing how you see the world. Jared, thank you for reviewing and giving hints on all aspects of photography. This is so helpful.
Jared. I agree with others here. These videos might not get the most views, but they teach so much that other photographers just gloss over. Keep up the great work!
@@froknowsphoto18 months ago I was just starting out and your critiques helped me out a lot. I now have people wanting to sell my photographs, and for me to make calendar’s. I attribute your critiques to my swift ascent.
@@froknowsphoto I wonder if this type of content would do better on a different channel. I feel like Gear Reviews/News/Rumors/Comparisons and Photo Technique/Critiques/Tips, while having some overlap, would have different core audiences. I'm no RUclips algorithm expert, but I've seen others have success spinning off 2nd and 3rd channels for different subsets of topics.
Fro is easily the most entertaining, QUICK, and knowledgeable YT Creative Techie Arts man, beast, or lady. I spent a summer living on The Upper East Side and freakin' loved it. Coffee white? Coffee with? Wha' heck? Yet I grew to love the quick efficiency and teamwork of the NY Coffee System. And so many other aspects. I've watched Jared for the great content and to feel some NY again. The guy has just killed it in this game too. Mad respect for that. I couldnt make it through the whole thing and I might buy some filters someday. Over the decades of pondering Great Names For New Pets, the name "Skittles" for a Kitteh has held promise. And then I shall endeavor to photograph Kitteh Skittles and filter him with Skittles too! What a plan! Go Fro, Go!
At 21:55 I thought i know them stones....... they are called the Externsteine near Paderborn, Germany (25 min from there) where I´m from. Never thought that i will see something from around my area here. Nice surprise. Great episode. Thank you fro sharing this Jared.
I have to echo what everyone else has said in that, the critique videos are really the content I have come to enjoy the most. I think they provide the most food for thought and education. I've spent hours just studying those. I've been planning on purchasing a mentorship for some time as I think the rush of hearing your critique on your own work would be great for any photographer. I already find I hear your voice in my head frequently when getting ready to press the shutter.
Lots of love for these types of videos Jared! I know they don’t reach as far as gear reviews and stuff, but these things sprinkled in are for the betterment of the photography community and much needed instead of “the latest and greatest” gear. Keep it up! I’ve learned a lot for myself and Daniela is doing good stuff!
I like these, it’s easy for us to post and just get told by the same people that always give the same praise that we’re doing well. Sometimes it’s good to get told where we can improve technically or just how someone else might take the image differently and help us see beyond what we look for
These critiques are really useful. I often am wondering if a shot I'm taking is a snapshot or if it pops. And how to fit images together in my portfolio. More please.
These are by far my favourite videos. Gear videos are nice, but the critique videos are about the craft and the art of photography and they are so inspiring.
Excellent video Jared. I watched in awe as you moved one slider and went from ok to great. I shoot raw and edit every picture I post but I have to get better at it. I'm afraid sometimes to move a slider more than just a bit because I think it will look over processed. Please keep doing these and maybe I'll get my own 15(35) minute critique someday.
This prompted me to I looked at my collection online. I looked at my earlier stuff and knew some needed to be removed. Not necessarily for some reasons in the videos, but just taking an honest look.
I love these videos. I've learned quite a bit. Definitely helped me fix some of the issues I've been having. I noticed the fringing on the pictures and I know I get this a lot with my 50mm 1.2 I got it used. Should I get it serviced or is that normal? It's my first prime lens with such a low aperture.
In the boat of glass holding me back. Is the new Nikon z glass at 4 enough of an improvement to justify replacing old 3rd party f mount? Or hold out till i can afford 2.8
Thanks for sharing this with us Jared I understand if these are great for the almighty algorithm but for aspirating photographers like me these are amazing
I do agree the Canon 75-300mm is not good at 300mm. I have the same lens and looking for a better option without breaking the bank what are your recommendations?
So....Jared, I don't like changing lenses either because I hate to get dust on my sensor, fingerprints on my lenses and worrying about shielding the insides of my camera from the elements. Why not do a video explaining the best way to work with changing and MAINTAINING lenses? I think that would be a great idea! ALSO...I like your critiques!
Once you get comfortable with changing lenses you should get very little dust and no finger prints. Ive shot sports in dusty windy environments and I’m get to get any amount of dust or finger prints on the lenses. Just takes practice.. but I’m constantly swapping lenses for each shot.
There’s no way to prevent sensor dust. Just use the stuff you paid for, and buy sensor cleaning kits, a rocket blower and a lens brush. Also a little tip for lens cleaning: buy a big bottle of whoosh. I’ve been cleaning my lenses with it for about 6 months now. It’s technically screen cleaner but it works great for finger prints on glass. It’s like $20 for a 17 oz bottle that will last years.
IMO the three ways to get better at photography is first understand exposure (theory), second understand your camera and lenses (not just how to use them, but also the various aspects -- strengths and weaknesses -- of your cameras and lenses because this will help you better utilize them), and third, practice (a lot). Those are the three biggest things. A fourth might be to have your work received or critiqued by a professional or established photographer so you can get input into your own images (which I think you've done here) as we tend to defend our images ourselves and some may not be as harsh on themselves as they should, and will make excuses for otherwise potentially bad photographs. It's a hard truth to go through a review with someone over your images, but if you can look at the positives of a portfolio review, rarely are others out there to make you feel bad, but they want you to become a better photographer, and sometimes that means giving you the harsh reality of where you stand with your current work and where you can improve.
I have the EF75 - 300 and I can confirm it is pretty terrible at 300 but it's the best I have so I still use it. There is really no way to crop it without making it look worse than it already is.
Daniela has a good eye for seeing the content, but she is probably a beginner and was shooting everything in “P” mode. Jared, can you check that in the jpegs or were the metadata stripped?

How can I get you to critique some of my photos in this way? Really enjoy these critiques!
I can find myself in the "I don't like changing lenses" statement. Neither do I, and I know, there is not one lens to rule them all. So what I do is bring 2 bodies with 2 different lenses, chosen for the circumstances I think I will be in.... and that usually works great. My go-to lenses are a Sigma 18-35 f/1.8, in case of architecture shots such as in Granada's Alhambra I use the Tokina 14-20 f/2, and for wildlife I either take a Sigma 105 f/2.8 macro or the Sigma 150-600 f/5-6.3 C lens. And I use 2 Canon 90D crop-sensor bodies. If you're wondering why I don't use Canon (L)-glass: I had a 70-200 f/4 L and a 24-105 f/4 L... which both did a lousy job in combination with my 90D's. Really terrible. So I went for Sigma and I stick with these for they are amazing with the 90D. The Canon glass was terrific when I used them with the 2013 70D, I admit... but they're absolutely no good with the 2019 90D. 2 bodies, 2 lenses will cover most of the situations I encounter on a trip. And if you're doing something else the next day, it's better to swap lenses in your accomodation the night before than in the field. Just my 2 cents. Excellent critique though... and I really saw some nice photo's too ! Keep 'm coming, Jared. Thanks !
Maybe she should get a 70-200f4 budget version of the f2.8, lighter too, and def a major stepup from that 75-300 such a terrible lens when going into post
Gotta disgaree re: changing lenses. The world's greatest photographers usually confine themselves to a single lens. Did Cartier-Bresson ever shoot anything that wasn't 35mm? Forget changing your lens; move your feet.
I came for the review yet left having to pick up my jaw from the floor after seeing how the angle tool in crop fixes the alignment automatically...I've been doing this manually for years...years.
I've seen so many other photographers provide advice on RUclips but this video is not advice. Period. Once or twice did I hear a normal critique on actual photography skills. The majority of the time, all you talk about is the gear being used and that has a much more minimal effect on a photographer's work than their own skill with exposure and composition. If you want to provide sound advice to the photography community, stop talking about fringing, aberration, and the fact that they are caused by the lens and start talking about the storytelling and composition aspect of a photographer's submission. That would be much more helpful. Telling someone that their shot "doesn't really work" because their camera is old and the shot is "mushy" completely eliminates the validity of your advice.
i disagree. knowing your gear and what it’s capable of is just as important than knowing how to compose and expose. maybe the power shot wasn’t meant to be a mile above the ground. maybe if the photog had known that they would have focused their creative energy into shooting something their camera is more capable of. i thought the birds eye city scape was great and the “mush” looked good creatively and he did comment on the composition. ur beefin for no reason
@@damiandorn4609 not true. I can shoot better photos with my phone vs some people who shoot sub par photos with expensive cameras. Why? Because light and composition is far more important.
@@AndiGomez-yu2dxare you of the belief that your ability to take good photos on your phone is in no part attributed to your knowledge of the equipment. I knkw that with my phone. i will likely not get a crisp image in low light situations even with a long exposure and a tripod. newer photographers are not always aware of what their cameras strengths are and sometimes not even know a problem is a problem when they encounter it for the first time. obviously a creative eye and problem solving are keystones of being a photographer but so is the gear you use. end of the day no one is getting paid photo gigs or giant prints with a cell phone
My guess is this person uses auto iso, that’s why they keep over exposing their photos with high iso. Also I myself as a beginner photographer found my photos kept being over exposed and washed out in bright day light, found a CPL filter solved these problems. Shooting in bright day light or directly at the sun during sunset you really need a CPL filter to retain all the details.
ruclips.net/video/70nVj5616TM/видео.html Skipperkroen :-) this is Nyhavn, Copenhagen. Probably the most photographed place for tourists visiting Copenhagen
How can you not change lenses! That's just ridiculous. She is a hobbyists. Jared, I think you should only do ppl who want to be professional. You should ask that question and eliminate those ppl from these types of videos..
I kinda agree from a personal point of view (although you can just look at the photos and don't have to ask the question), but having some videos with more basic information can be helpful for people at the beginning of their journey. So balancing it out is fine.
@@froknowsphoto I think he refers to which critiques you upload, not that you critique them in general. There are obviously different target audiences depending on how much experience the photographer got as this changes how detailed your critique is. In this example, the critique was more on a basic level (which is fine as we all started somewhere and I am sure it helped the photographer and others watching this with similar experiences) and there are other videos where you pointed out much finer details because the photographer was already more experienced and didn't make those "general mistakes" (e.g. shutter / ISO, straight lines, grading, etc.).
@@froknowsphoto Maybe send them a more professional lens(a used 50mm primes doesn't cost much) and do a quick before/after video? With a real lens and the pointers from this video, there should be some improvement right?
It’s because people who have done this for a long time aren’t going to pay for this. This is definitely geared toward beginners. People have got to start somewhere. When I first started I only had 2 lenses. Now I have more than I can count. Some people just need that push. I just don’t get what you’re trying to get at by excluding beginners. Not to mention gear isn’t what makes a great photographer (although it makes it easier to get better)
Jared, I get it these may not do great, but honestly these are my favorite because I learn the most. Photo critiques and videos of you showcasing photos you have taken (the mlb series at the end of last season was AMAZING) are by far my favorite.

Do you have a Sepia preset in your Fro-Packs? If not, why not?
Because sepia is trash. No offense but it’s one of the lamest looks. Nothing says noob more than using a sepia preset.
Yo, what…no kicking snow? One of my fav digs of all time! 😂
I learned a lot from editing!

yes…Yes…YEs…YES…YES!!
