Last week I visited Cleveleys Beach to take a few Landscape pictures with the intention of adding them to my website and sell them. Cleveleys is part of the Fylde Coast, North West UK coastline 10-minutes away from Blackpool.
I wanted to include Mary's Shell in the image. Mary's Shell is a public art piece.
The sea level was favourable as the tide was fully in which is exactly what I wanted. A full tide renders the lower part of the shell in the sea, just perfect. The weather wasn't particularly brilliant but as long as there are the clouds in the sky there is always a picture to be had!
I have also included my post-processing workflow to the video too. This way you can see how I create pictures that sell from start to finish.
COMMENTS always welcome
THANK YOU

Absolutely beautiful photography 📸
Thank you for this video. You are truly an inspiration.
Very kind, thank you
You are a wizard Harry!
Thank you
Gary, difficult subject.........but you explained better than anyone else..........thanks
You are a maverick! thank you for the wonderful titorial.
Thank you 👍👍
Two things have blown me away regarding this video. 1. The quality, info and craftsmanship/artmanship (not a word I know but I just claimed it) of producing the end product. Truly amazing! 2. Why there are so many not likes? What is there not to like. It's a great class. Nice job Gary. I'm a fan.
Awesome work! And you make it look so simple!👍👍👍
Cheers Walter
This tutorial is absolute gold....
Very kind, thank you
So good, that it is worth the subscription.
Thank you 👍
Very nicely done. 👍👍👍
Excellent description of fine art photography. It is exactly what I love to do and still learning how to do.
Thank you
FINALLY a channel from an experienced guy who does realistic videos that isnt too much click bait ( I would love to see how to sell your images. What channels you put them on etc, and how you price them. You mentioned you put them on your website, but how do you get people over there?)
No fancy pansy guys with over enthusiastic "WHATS UP GUYS!!!" bunch of nonsense.
Thank you John, very kind of you to say. I'll be making a follow up video with the some of the questions you raised
@@GaryGough that's nice of you. I subscribed!
I recently got myself a Sony a7iii and a lens for cheapo.
I used to have an old nikon d60, and I have to say it's way more fun now. The images I get is just amazing compared to the old nikon. So much information from the full frame.
Still have tons of practice I need, but I would love to able to sell a lucky shot if I make one. Even it's a dollar or 10 I don't mind. But the feeling that someone would pay something for my photos would be amazing :)
Keep up the high quality videos.
So far I like them a lot.
Nice to see full processing Gary very informative
Thank you Brian, very kind 👍
You do some brilliant videos Gary, this has to be one of your best ever.
Thank you Steve, very kind 👍🏻
Good Art has 'Aesthetic' which elevates the soul. Bad art is everything else.
Gary you are the first person who has been able to describe 'fine art photography' and I think you summed it up perfectly. I have only just discovered you and I am already a fan.
One of the best editing videos on YT, hands down.
Nice job Gary. Well explained.
Very kind Lee, thank you 👍👍
What a great video Gary. Thx a lot.
Cheers
Excellent!!! Love the color version of this show!!!! Thanks!!
Cheers Burt 👍
Hello Gary, Thank you so much for gently share your process and sensibility with us. I am a Brazilian guy who is now coming to your channel. I will subscribe to your channel and learn more from you. When I improve my English I hope to attend a workshop there in Scotland. Problably in 2023. Thanks again.
Excellent tutorial, love the image
Thank you xx
You are a great teacher, thank you!
Love your work Gary and I agree with the fine art statement as it gives a person whatever creative latitude they need to make a piece of art.
Thank you Keith 👍👍👍👍
Excellent stuff as usual, Gary.. Enjoyed your tutorial in PS, so keep em coming. Im going to have to try this out..
Thank you Roger 👍👍
That's one of the best PS tutorials I have seen.
What a beautiful image. I love the color version.
For as long as I have been shooting photos, I’m starting to learn photography... you are a teacher.
Thank you Howard
Your work is beautiful! Thank you ever so much for sharing your tips!!!

I really love this channel. Thank you, sir.
Just found your site!! I shall be back. Loved watching you work and the picture is first class. In colour it's a picture,in black & white it's art!
Thoroughly enjoyable! I love your tips. Oh and yes, I agree with your definition of fine art photos. Thanks
thank you 👍
Stunning, Gary.
Even at my age I can learn something new everyday, Thanks Gary.
You're welcome Charles. I think we're all learning, aren't we? 😁😁 👍👍
I firmly believe that there is little point to life if we aren't still learning and experiencing. Life would seem unbearable without it.
So true 👍👍
I've learned so much from you. Thanks!
Excellent!! Thank you!
Very kind again 👍👍
I enjoyed this video Gary and yes, I agree. It is a Fine Art image and quite beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you Marie
Nice Presentation, valuable lessons. Thanks, Gray
Gary, It is always good to learn some new ways on how to process an image. Thanks, John
You're welcome John 👍🏻👍🏻
Hi Gary, Thanks for this video. I have a definition of fine art photography,and it is this: If you see a photograph and you just have to buy it to hang it on your wall because it creates an impact in your soul and you know you will enjoy it everytime your eyes fall on it then you have found something which causes the viewer to linger and take the time to comprehend it, it then, is fine art.
Love your work
Kind of you to say, thank you
Very good video Gary! Thank you!
You're welcome Tom 👍👍
Great video Gary. Great composition and post production :-)
Thank you Colin, very kind
Loved your way to explain!
Very nice art! And very nice instruction as well! You've given me some great ideas in both areas. Keep your insights coming!

Hi Gary Ranjo is here I really love your art photo it is great, thanks for all the amazing videos I’m learning quite a lot from you, photoshop is my weakest point. Thanks
Thank you. Keep at it, that's the secret
I’m mate trying my best I even signed up in Sunderland college to lean more about photography and photoshop.
Really enjoyed that... love seeing how others edit. well done
Thank you Alastair 👍
Thank you Gary for sharing your process. I enjoy watching videos like this as its both about a beautiful piece of fine art, and it demonstrates the process of achieving it. I’m with you on your definition of fine art, it’s all about a vision for an image and what a photographer can do to achieve the vision! Thank you for producing great videos and sharing them as you do. Cheers!
I can just say one word 'WoW'
Very, very kind, thank you 👍👍
Thanks Gary. Some super simple Photoshop tricks that I would have never thought of? Maybe in 20 years time I'll be up to standard! Great vid.
Thank you Darcy 👍👍
I like the images, especially in colour. Thanks for the detailed lesson on the pp, very helpful.
Thank you kindly Brenda 👍👍👍👍
Very beautiful! And very educational!
Thank you Cathy 👍👍
Excellent Gary, some good tips there 👍
Thank you 👍👍
great vlog and tips Gary, the one with the marquee tool was something new to learn! thanks for that!
Thank you Patrick 👍👍
Thanks for all those valuable tips. I did not use any shortcuts untill now but will most likely start to learn and incorporate them into my workflow.
Very kind of you to say, thank you
All I can say is that your tutorials- "follow along"; is really wonderful. Thanks so much. I just had to subscribe in order to support you and help me. Cheers.
Very kind, thank you
Excellent work
Thank you 👍
Great to see your work flow and techniques, thank you for sharing!!
You're welcome, thank you
Great video. It reinforced much of what I already knew but the use of the marquee to move one part of the image to another as an alternative to cloning and healing is a revelation as well as the transform tool used at the bottom edge instead of cropping out unwanted distractions and thus allowing you to maintain the chosen dimensions of the image is a revelation. Thank you for an informative lesson.
Gladys Perrier you’re welcome. Thank you
Thank you so much Gary, I came across your RUclips by accident but so pleased I did. Extremely helpful even more so as I’m getting bored with my photography at the moment, and I’m definitely interested in Fine Art Photography. Got to learn those shortcuts - brilliant. I have subscribed and will now go to your website. Thank you. Kim
You nailed it with this video, Gary, thanks !
Great video Gary, lots to learn from!
fabulous
Thank you very much 👍👍
I always get a good tip or three from your videos. Thanks again from Texas, Gary.
and thank you again Jeffrey 👍👍👍👍
Really great video - inspiring and informative
Wonderful tutorial. This is my first view of your tutorials. It was very helpful. It can be so easy to overdo edits in post-processing. This photo looks great in B&W or the blue color. Love the smooth sea. Very nice. Can't wait to see more. Thank you!
Its easy for everyone to believe that everything has been shot or taken before you. So what the need to take the shot again. But photography is about that. Mimicking a shot of another picture or photographer to help find your place in the art, in the field, in the world of photography, the aim is to give you the ability to take it to the next level, in evolution of photography, evolution of yourself, its your photo, of that shot that someone thought of, that bring you to their same wave length.
all eyes are different, but are still just eyes.
all pictures are different but are still just pictures.
A camera's role is to act as bridges between the eyes, the pictures and the minds. fine art achieve this goal.
Well said
Great video. Improved my perspective.
Great photography and some good tips on post processing, keep it coming Gary!
Thank you 👍👍
Great video, very informative it will help me in post processing for sure
Gary, I concur with your definition and others that have commented provide some good nuances to the definition of Fine Art. Thanks for sharing your creativity and insight from the camera through post-processing. I appreciate it.
Very very informative Gary, I was hooked! Lovely images and very natural flow tutorial, thank you! Loved both images but the colour one was incredible.
Cheers Darren, very kind 👍
Very nice video Gary!
A real artistic image
Enjoyed the process and it produced a great photo, definitely fine art.
Thank you John 👍👍
Very interesting video. I agree with your definition of fine art fotography. Thank you for sharing your workflow, I find it very inspiring.
Very kind, thank you
You are much easier to follow! Thank you
Thank you 👍
Best explanation of photography as art that I've heard. Only ever sold a few prints but get what you're saying. The downside is that it looks like I'll have to bite the bullet and learn Ps instead of relying on Lr. Already on my Mac but have tried to ignore it until now!
Firstly thank you... secondly, go on! get it fired up. You won't regret it :)
Wow. Very nice 😻
Thank you
I was beginning to think I was the only UK youtuber advocating Photoshop Gary - excellent 👍👍👍
Not at all Andy. I can still remember when LR was the product you bought if you couldn't afford or justify the cost. In fact, when people ask me why I use PS and not LR I always reply because I'm a professional. Hope that doesn't offend :)
Gary - been doing this for a living for 40 years now so I'm in the same mid as you! But I use Lightroom because I teach folk, so I have to! But Lr is the same as ACR in my eyes - do a few small global things then move the image to Ps for the localised stuff. Photoshop is the king for image processing - it's nice to know I'm not alone!!!!
It's really awesome tutorial....
"Art is anything you can get away with" - Andy Warhol
So true 👍
People like Andy Warhol never say those things when they are just starting out though, they wait until they have a large bank balance before saying controversial things.
Damien Hurst is living proof of that
Pretty sure it was Marshall McLuhan who said that....
Just wonderful, I been tryin to find out about "sell nature photos" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Cellaatty Unimaginable Command - (do a search on google )?
It is an awesome exclusive guide for discovering how to earn money from your photos without the headache. Ive heard some decent things about it and my mate got cool success with it.
Definitely worthy. I think you fine art is lovely!
A very interesting and useful video about Fine Art photography Gary. The post-processing steps are very well explained.
Thank you José, very kind 👍👍
Great tutorial and fantastic image (the colour one for me). Thanks Gary!
Cheers Barry 👍👍
I really enjoyed your video. I've been going through some of my past images, and now I have a better idea of what to do with them. Thank you.
Awesome shots ! And the editing process seems super easy ! Will certainly be watching more !
