    Mike: Yes, I will never forget that picture.
    29:38
    Lee: have you seen that image before?
    29:43
    Mike: Maybe I have, but I can't remember 😂

    Lee, the gradient you see in the second photo was part of the original. The black and white edit sort of exaggerated the contrast :) Thanks for the critique

    Mike Kelley surely isn’t as strict with his critiques as he used to be; allowing surprising aspects to get a pass when normally, he wouldn’t let it slide at all. Perhaps Mike has softened his opinion on photos in an attempt to enjoy more images instead of only noticing their flaws. Anyway, great upload!

    Out of curiosity, I actually googled the cruise and can confirm the PI Pool was taken with a drone, because there is no balcony near the area. Is a great shot!

    I agree with Mike's choice for number 1, personally I like the LA freeway image, I know it's a road and a simple composition, but the tone and the old car really give the image a futuristic feeling👽🛰 Great photo review guys very entertaining 👍👍

      What strikes me even more than the boats is that in the reflection of the cabins, one of them is in a much paler shade of red then the others. Looks like the photographer adjusted the "real" cabin's color to make them look more uniform, but didn't do so for its reflection.

    So interesting. As an european architectural photographer myself, I agree with so much of what Mike thinks of the photos.. So its really interesting seeing when and why Lee doesn't like the photos. Gets me out of my bubble. I don't agree with Lee mostly but still interesting :D

  • @nikolai_art
    @nikolai_art 6 месяцев назад +4

    Watching this you'd think Lee Morris is the greatest photographer to ever walk the earth. But, it's just his hubris, that doesn't let him give credit to anyone else really. Downright embarrassing how he basically thinks he'd have taken a better picture at every single location. The "bad cosplay" comment was the lowlight of the video. Mike seems like a nice guy though, and was spot on with most of his assessments. Probably because he's a pro, and knows what it takes to create those shots. While hobbyists often have the mindset of "I will do better".

      Mike i knew from a couple years back who put emphasis on every little tiny detail, down to the way a pillow in the very corner of an image was arranged just a few inches off would have never picked such a generally sloppy set of images. then at 29:40 he goes and throws out a 5, world class, UNFORGETTABLE image, which at best is a 3. then ironically he proceeds with saying he doesn't remember if he's seen it or not when lee asks him : D i totally agree with mike on multiple points, especially the "irritant" point which was a problem for lee but man i was surprised with mike's approach here. has he become a dad recently or something? :D 95% of the edge is gone. all in good spirit of course, im just teasing but i really was genuinely surprised after checking in again after years. i wish mike and lee all the best, i love this combination
