Fan Ho -Master of Light and Shadow
Вставка
- Опубліковано 31 тра 2024
- THIS VIDEO: The way that Fan Ho’s photography emerged in the west was similar to the discovery of a time capsule - a photographic record - that had been …in inverted commas, discovered. Almost all of his famous images were produced before he was 28 years old and that means he largely faded from the photography scene by the early 1960s. At that time, he had achieved some international recognition, but his work hadn’t been exhibited widely. He said that he had fame, but no fortune…and needed to support his young family - so he shifted into the world of film making- first as an actor, and then later as a director.

Yes yes yes. Thank you
You remind me of the best art teachers I never had❤.
What a cool thing to say, thanks
Beautiful portrait of Fan Ho and his work. Well done, and thanks.
Best narrative on Fan Ho. brilliant
An articulate and inspiring analysis. Fan Ho deserves his place among the very greatest photographers. Too bad he had to waste so much time making trash films in order to stay afloat. One can only imagine the depth and breadth of his oeuvre had he been free to pursue his photographic work throughout his life. Thank you for making this video; I enjoyed it immensely.
Thanks Owen yes, this money earning thing is a distraction
Thank you for presenting this work. I loved these photos.
Thanks Carole
Thank you for an excellent analysis of a great photographer and his work. He should be better known than he is.
Excellent!
One of the channels in UA-cam with substance.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge and time.
🙏❤️
I agree! Thanks! I appreciate the research you did
Much appreciated
Thank you Graeme for another thoughtful view into the art of a fantastic photographer. Your descriptions of Fan Ho's use of light and contrast, and dimmer the mid tones will help everyone get a better understanding of his work. 🙏
one of my favorite, is use of light and shadow to tell a story in a single image is fanamonal
Thank you for introducing me to the photographic art of Fan Ho and a careful explanation of what were his intentions. I am grateful.
Thank you for another fantastic view into a photographer's journey. I was not that much aware of Fan Ho's work until now.
Thanks for presenting this thoughtful and enjoyable story of Fan Ho! Useful info here for me to consider on my own monochrome photographic exploration. 📷🙂
Thanks Grenville
Thank you Graeme, I've always been inspired by Fan HO's work.
I'd be happy to have taken just one of these photographs.This is youtube at its best.
Many thanks
Great photo selection and great insight into a remarkable photographer and his work. Thank you!
Thank you so much for this inspiring analysis. I am a very big fan of Fan Ho. Love his work so much. ❤❤❤❤
Breathtaking work. Great video. So glad you revealed that one of his most famous photos was constructed. It is easy to get a sense of inferiority if we can't get shots like that in camera. Knowing that image was posed and manipulated in the darkroom doesn't make it any less powerful, any more than finding out Bresson's most famous image was a crop.
Given things like AI, these misdemeanors seem trivial.
Thank you for continuing to make fresh, thoughtful content. Great to see new work and hear your thoughts.
Delightful video, fabulous photographs!
With each one of your videos we learn so much, even for the ones who have worked with photography for many years. High time you get a teaching job somewhere at a great location … !! 😉
Mmm yes, may be a good idea.
Beautiful and stunning images, thanks for sharing this, absolutely love it.
Many thanks
Great artist. I wonder how he managed to get the people to ignore or fail to recognize that he was photographing them, and a lot of times from down low. That would attract my attention right away.
Probably because he has a quiet presence
Beautifully presented! Love his work.
Very interesting analysis of probably my favourite photographer. Never knew the shadow was burnt in post! 😊
Me neither until I did my research.
Thank you, that was fascinating. As a painter, I love photographs like some of these that give beautiful images that wouldn’t work in a painting. Although now I’ve said that I’m on the point of arguing with myself… So thank you again - very thought provoking! I like your voice, too.
Thank you Jane
Very interesting video and presentation of an artist that I was unfamiliar with--many thanks!
What another lovely one G ! Well done !! xx
Отличные работы, прекрасное видео. Спасибо!
Beautiful music…❤
I know a market palce which would be a perfect bacjground to such images. Thanks for sharing this and providing more inspiration.
What a beautiful and sensitive video. Thank you.
Thanks Michael
Very nice presentation, thank you.
Just when you need it, there it is.
Glad that I could help
Thank you! An inspiration
Thanks a lot for this video.
Fantastic video!! Thanks!
Thought provoking
Excellent
wow
Thanks for this video. Its more insightful than a lot of much longer ones. I'm glad you pointed out just how much darkroom work he did to 'create' a dramatic image. I just wonder if people would still be copying him (usually badly) if they saw the original negs. I guess its all about the composition, you can fix the contrast after.
Watching the movies might ruin his reputation 😖
A celebration video like this only promotes one's work and spreads awareness. I believe the technical aspect described is not ruining his reputation. Great photographers have used techniques to enhance their work since the great innovation of the darkroom. These techniques are lifelong craft skills that are shaped and improved over decades of practice rather than software manipulations. Nevertheless, an interesting conversation to have "where to draw the line"
@@lowe_h_seger I'm not criticising the darkroom skills, probably moreso the lack of knowledge of the digital generation that the same 'manipulation' has been going on since the dawn of photography. There's a whole bunch of people that 'believe' the final image was what was caught on the negative, which is often not the case.
Ansel Adams would be another good example.
Neither am I saying that the only memorable images where created by manipulation 'in post'; just for the sake of clarity.
As to 'where to draw the line', for me it is all about the intent of the photographer but also just as much in the subjective judgement and opinion of the viewer.
@@iainmc9859 Thank you for your reply and I totally agree with you.
My thought is that if one is open about what one is doing, then why not. It becomes a problem when one presents work as one thing, but behind the scenes, there are a whole number of other things going on.
Is it common the photographer quits early in life? I was more active up to 50-year-old. Then the work to keep up the level of photography was increasing in cost and hours until I had to decide to continue with my ordinary work or try to get professional. For years after that I kept it on a low level and did not get any new equipment. Lately I have upgraded my equipment, except PS, and a 15mm lens, and now I slowly staring to be more rigorous in my photography again but my ordinary work still take most of my free time so there are little time to make good photographs.
Hi Thomas It is a constant compromise for all of us, trying to find dedicated time for one's own photography.
this is a great video, except for that music. i thought i had another tab open. I don't know where in the book of u tube it says there must be music. so distracting to the interesting biographical, aesthetic, and interpretational points you are making.
aka "fixing a shadow" ...
Indeed one of the very best;-)) @philosimot
