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.

What Karl said says Karl as well
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.
That was the smoothest ad setup I have ever seen. Masterworks owes you a bonus.
Ted; channeling his days of when he was teaching photography.
A great episode and such an important topic.
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).
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!
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
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 ✋
I LOOOOOVE the videos that you do on composition theory... this one and the one with the paper cutout exercise.
Thank you for producing this amazing video, I love the educational / art orientated content on your channel
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.
Thank you Ted Forbes for always showcasing concepts that can help everyone into Photography expand our view of things!
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.
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!
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.
Love your videos on composition! I've learned all my composition techniques from you and my photos have got way better
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!
Thanks for getting back to the Art of Photography.
12:06 - “We’re gonna get a little outside here.” Slipping in some jazz jargon. Love it!
Just discovered "art of photo" channel,awesome, worked at Polaroid for 38 years, took a bunch of technical photos, technically proficient, artistically "dumb" love this channel . On the road to getting smarter, Long,l long road, never ends. respect your musical BKG, Love your presentations. mostly landscape, live 5 minutes from Lake Ontario, many many water images, silhouettes, mount5ains, waterfalls, etc. will try to watch from the beginning, interesting how we change!!
These analytical videos of the masters are what brought me to your channel and make me realize the depth of this art.
Very motivating. I have done some of this in the past without knowing it. With your explanation it makes me eager to find and create more.
Thx much! I can always count on you to teach a concept and to keep it fresh… it seems all the other RUclipsrs 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!
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
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.
beautiful works! thank you so much for sharing!
Glad to see you produce this video. It was for content like this that I subscribed in the first place. Nice job.
I find I focus so much on getting the technical aspects right, I overlook composition. This was really helpful.
I love these videos. This is why i subscribed and why i share your videos with my photographer friends! Cheers from Italy ☺
I'm really enjoying your in-depth videos. Keep up the great work!
Thanks Ted! Such an inspiring vid. Layering is difficult and powerful comp technique!
Watching this I developed a new approach to how and why of compositional photography. Thanks for your time!
This is a great format, great topic and you are, of course, a great speaker! Cheers,Ted.
Thanks for the helpful and informative (and inspirational) video. Great content as always.
i was aware of layering, however, the images you chose to illustrate the potential have illuminated and expanded my awareness of layering. Thank you for putting this out. 💪👍
Thanks for continuing to honor the name of your channel. It baffles me that this kind of videos don’t do as well with the algorithm. Thanks for exposing us to these concepts 🖖🏽
Stieglitz "the steerage" mixes layering composition, lines composition pretty nicely for an early historical modern photo.
Fantastic video Ted! Thank you so much for this!
I really enjoy content like this that helps a photographer better understand compositional techniques. Thank you.
Just wonderful. I always try to frame but this is the next logical step. Great examples, thankyou.
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.
Absolute fantastic insight on a touchy subject. Congrats.
Ted, love the video. Thanks again for your information and inspiration! Cheers Dan
I don’t have the vocabulary to explain why I think some photos are pleasing to look at, but videos like this allows me to better understand why some photos look nice.
Great video as always, thank yo for sharing this artist's masterpieces
A joy to watch as always, instructional and inspiring
Thank you for sharing you knowledge and insight. Really enjoy the channel and your take on photography.
I have learned so much from not just this video but MANY of your videos. It's not just the education that you provide, but also the passion that you place on full display is so inspirational. You are truly one of God's gifts Mr. Forbes. Thank you...for everything.
Brilliant episode with great examples. Well done!
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.
Thank you for this inspirational video that you have so artfully created. Helps me understand how to appreciate and create better images. Thank you for introducing these masters of photography to those like me.
Man, this episode is amazing. The technique presented, the explanation, the examples used and get to know these photographers! Bonus knowing the sponsor, pretty cool idea!
It’s a scam.
Very inspiring! Thank you for that. I discovered some shots I did using this technique, but did not know what to call it. And I am inspired to go out and shoot some more. :)
This is an awesome and informative video. And, man ... the works of those photographers are amazing
Fascinating video, great concepts. Thanks so much!
Love this video! I’m slowly trying to work on and improve my photography, I think slowing down and using techniques such as these is definitely the way to go for me!
It’s a scam.
Thank you for this.
Some incredible shots on this sort of.. showcase.
I love Photography. :)
Thank you for loving it too..and sharing your love for it, with us.
Cheers from Portugal
Oh yeah, your content seems to have stepped up a notch or even three! Really enjoyed this Ted. thanks.
Another top video! Thank you so much.
Great episode! Inspirational! Thank you
I have learned about so many amazing photographers from you. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing the work of these geniuses 🙏🏽👌🏽
FINALLY!!!!! THANK YOU!! Gianni is one of the absolute masters and hardly anyone mentions him!! THANK YOU!! (Vaporetto - steam boat - is one of his masterpieces shots!). He was much appreciated by H.C. Bresson.
Brilliant! So many ideas in this one
Composition and technique videos are what makes this channel great. I don't care about technical reviews, please do more compositional videos. Great stuff, Ted!
I loved this episode!! Thank You!
Thanks for all Ted !!! 👏👏👏
Really cool Video! Thx for that. Awesome Examples & explanation
Thank you for a very informative and entertaining video - after 50-years journeying from Rolleicord to Nikon Z6, I learnt much from your video - once again, thank you.
Inspiring! defo going to be picking up the camera more. Keep up your great work!
Another great video with meaningful and important knowledge. Thanks alot 🙏
Wonderful episode ! …Thankyou
Watched it a second time today. 😊
Wonderful video, thanks for making and sharing.
Arthur is amazing. So fortunate to have studied with him several times now.
This is so refreshing. Great video.
Beautiful photos. Thanks for sharing
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.
Back to old school Ted. I like it!
Loved this episode, love the idea of almost abstract
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.
Gardin inspires, intimidates, entertains me. I want to shoot like him, but not like him, if you get what I mean. Same with Yusuf Karsh. Thank you for this.
just by looking at the book and the picture that you pointing to us it's really teach me a lot already
thank you very very much for this education bunch of my shoot base by learning from your youtube channel
outstanding , as usual!
Most important video. Thank you, sir.
I immediately ordered Meyerson's book after viewing this video. Thanks!
Well said Ted! Thank you !
13:21 blew me away!!! You never sould guess, this is a photograph! Thanks Ted for intruducing us to the masters.
Thanks Ted. Very interesting video. One of your best. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺 Steve
This is great, thank you.
Great video. Loved it!
Great episode, thanks!
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!
Scam!
@@kevinarmstrong3415 indeed.
Awesome episode, Ted!
Really enjoy these types of episodes … learning ‘The Art of Photography’ by example ;-)
Yeah, Gestalt referred to this as Figure to ground and it really dictates that all layers of the image are equally important. Galen Rowell wrote about how people will often ignore the setting when taking their pictures and focus solely on the subject.
Great video! Very inspiring!
This video was recommended by another RUclips 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.
Very interesting! Thank you
I understand how "on the edge" photos make use of the imagination. That's fine. But I am always "at ease" with my book of Adams' landscapes.
Been a while but as always worth the wait 👍
thank you! very interesting! 🙂
