Art of Photography: Martin Evening

This is Martin Evening's session at Art of Photography Conference 2021, going into depth about 'The Hits and Misses of a Creative Career'.
An interesting insight to how he developed and learned as a photographer throughout his own successful creative career.
Martin looks back over his creative career as a commercial photographer and artist and analyses the triggers that help photographers be more consistently successful when creating images.

Very sad to hear that Martin is no longer with us, I still use Photoshop CS5 and I bought Martin's book on the subject a good few years ago now but it has helped me so much for which I am so grateful.
You will be sadly missed but never forgotten. RIP Martin

I hadn't heard that Martin had died. Looking at my book self, my most recent edition of PFP is for CS6, and that's not because I lost interest, but because my poor eyesight was making it increasingly difficult to read the fine print. For many years, Martin was my go to source for in depth information about Photoshop and I will forever value the knowledge I gained from Martin's books and videos. One tip I remember is variation of the Patch Tool that allows you to scale down an object when placing it. The example Martin used was with a fishing boat - I wonder if anyone else remembers that video? We have lost far too many great people to cancer (Iain Banks who wrote the Culture books comes to mind). Martin lives on in his outstanding body of work and I feel privileged to learn so much from his books and videos.
