Thanks, Peter. Your diptychs look really good and it's a great idea for a zine. With two vertical photos you can fill a double spread nicely. This was an awesome video.
Peter, I have the exact same opinion as Matti. If you are planning to edit some zines, these diptycs with a good choice of format are perfect for it. All the best to you both, my two favourite Finnish photographer friends. Hope to see you both in person one of these days.
Thanks for the video. It's the first time I've heard of this word, and indeed, the concept. I think it's very important not to get your tongue tied when saying it!
I can tell you that it is not easy. With a bit of planning and thinking, it can be easier. Plan your shots and start with making them with a few ideas, and complete a couple of these first. It gets easier that way.
A very interesting and thought provoking video Peter. I have never thought of / heard about this technique / compositional mode before except for the concepts of triptychs in churches ! I found it to be a very stimulating and insightful video with much to think about ..
Great video Peter! While watching this I was reminded of a photographer in the collection of the art museum where I used to work. His name is Alen MacWeeney, and he did some diptychs of the NY subway back in the 70s. I'm not sure if he combined them then or later, but there's a book available from the NY Public Library. I've also been scanning a collection of photos from a commercial photographer from around 1960 that took photos of car wrecks. He shot on medium format and cut his negatives into two frame strips so they would fit the envelopes he used. Sort of a natural diptych. I've also seen people do something similar on Olympus Pen half-frame cameras, print two images using the 35mm negative carrier. Again, great, inspiring, inventive video. Thanks!
The first thing I notice is that these 2-image compositions (finally) allow/authorize you compositions in landscape format (horizontal) that you were neglecting. I mean for the majority of your images (and perhaps more and more), you favor the portrait format (vertical). And looking at your images, video after video, this vertical format is more and more pleasant to me. Here with your images composed by 2 (or 3 for the glass doors) I find the landscape format to which my old habits were familiar but with enhanced effects where the "diptych" result is always greather (sometimes far) than the sum of the 2 images. The mixes H+V are also very interesting, the one at at 14:29 is very great. Many thank for this "masteclass" on that way to present images.
Thank you very much. Yes, I have been drawn to portrait mode for some reason. It feels that the images are bettre that way. That is something I need to think about and maybe make a video about it.
Peter, thank you so much for this video, what a great challenge you gave to yourself. The results were simply magnificent and the idea was simply excellent. About the video itself I am sure your tips are and will be extremely useful to everybody who are willing to follow your inspiration and creativily master a trip telling the story in diptycs. Having said that, I personally have been trying to this while shooting my vintage Canon Demi's halfframe film cameras and its hard and a huge challenge in terms of creativity. Thank you so much for sharing this video, besides the fact it's a big and fresh gasp of creativity, it's also a true teaching of great photography. My biggest congratulations, I loved every image and every tip. All the best to you my friend, hope to see you soon!
A very interesting subject Peter, now I have another idea that I have to keep in mind on my next walk about. I shouldn't have too much difficulty going through my travel photos & putting something together. A winter project.
Bakirkoy was nice neighbourhood. The camera museum is amazing. I have a video about my visit to the museum. It will public inm the near future, possibly next Friday.
Awesome video Peter. At first i thought you were saying D--k pics lol, because i was driving and couldn't see , but hear. Was like "interesting subject" im going try to create these. With my GR3x this should be a fun project this weekend in Washington DC
Is there a diptych format history in the street photo genre? The first original example I saw was on photographer Michael St.Mark / London Dada's archive , around 2008.
I have not come across it presented this way. Most likely it has been done. Diptych is not a nerw idea. Many books that are made have spreads that are kind of diptychs. It cold be something to continue with and see where it leads.
Peter hello and have a nice day. Maybe you can advise. On my Panasonic camera, if I let the camera go into sleep mode, I can charge the flashlight via the usb cable. But it doesn't work on the OM-1, it doesn't charge until I turn off the camera. But I have to keep turning the camera on and off like this. Do you know if it can be set up somewhere so I don't have to buy a charger? The charger is not a solution either, because I will keep opening and closing the door. :) Thanks for the answer.
@@ForsgardPeter Oh I am sorry. I use translator, I am not a pro in English. It should be a battery. I do charge battery via USB cable. Funny thing is, we call a flashlight a battery in my country. ---- Maybe in time I'll find a solution, or I'll buy a charger like everyone else. Thank you for your reply. For now, have a good time. Peter eM.

Brilliant job pairing your photos. Very inspiring and a great tip to go through our back catalogues.
Thank you. Glad you found it inspiring!
You did a awesome job with this. You made it look easy. This could be a fun challenge.

Thanks 🖤 Helped a lot and it was good to see my home town! 🐈⬛
Glad you enjoyed it.

Beautiful images and pairing. Really inspiring. Thank you.
Thanks.
Great subject about Diptic maybe i will have a try
Thanks.
I've been thinking of exactly this as well. It's all about context, harmony and balance. You can also have fun with humourous juxtaposition.
Thanks. Yes I try to add humour to my images if possible.
Inspiring video, I´ll have a try, thx
Thanks! Have fun!

Thank you so much! I wish I can travel to Lisbon again. It is a such a nice city and of course have a photo walk with you!
Very inspiring Peter. I’m going out with a mate to try this.
Thanks. Go for it!
This comes at a great time for me. I wanted to try another dimension of my shooting. THIS is a great way to look at it.
Glad this was helpful.
A very interesting subject Peter, now I have another idea that I have to keep in mind on my next walk about. I shouldn't have too much difficulty going through my travel photos & putting something together. A winter project.
Go for it!
Great video. And I loved seeing my city Istanbul and my town Bakirkoy. :)
Bakirkoy was nice neighbourhood. The camera museum is amazing. I have a video about my visit to the museum. It will public inm the near future, possibly next Friday.
This doesn’t look easy Peter but very interesting. Can I ask how you work your images together in post production?
Mostly the editing was adjusting colors and exposure so that the images match in that.
Really enjoyed this one
Gretat to hear. Thank you.
Super very inspiring video. Thank you Peter.
Christine from FRance
Glad you enjoyed it, and thank you.
Very nice video, thanx!
Thank you too!
Awesome video Peter. At first i thought you were saying D--k pics lol, because i was driving and couldn't see , but hear. Was like "interesting subject" im going try to create these. With my GR3x this should be a fun project this weekend in Washington DC
Well, a d--k pics video would be an interesting one. Maybe I will pass on that one...
@ForsgardPeter hahaha well said

Great! It certainly boosts the individual photos, i e 1 + 1 = 3 and challenges me as a photographer.
It is challenging but also very rewarding.

Unfortunately I cannot say anything about that. You are charging a flashlight via camera? What flashlight is it?

Welcome to İstanbul, i hope you enjoyed here
