    Jeez Louise. This is great. Very inspiring approach-wise.
    I preferred the photo without the person in it at sunset but both are fantastic.
    Cheers.

    I like the photo with the birds and the bridge...it is stunning. You have a couple of things going on. The cool tones of the fog against the warm, international orange colored bridge cables as well as the birds within the fog providing a contrast with all of the cars on the bridge itself. It is fantastic!

    8:18 I prefer the horizontal composition because it is not cluttered unlike the vertical composition. The sunlight on the birds make them pop from the background. Amazing photos and video as usual!

  • @dw.in.michigan

    Birds and the bridge is better. All the night shots are spectacular. The one wide-angle still reminds me of that movie the 13th Warrior - "the glow verm [worm]".
    Great images. Thanks for sharing your vision and expertise.

    Fog and San Francisco are putty in your hands! Epic is not too strong a word in this case. And you are a timelapse master! While I do like adding people occasionally for scale and for the sense of being there, I really love the simple birds and bridge in the comparison shots. The photographer right in front of the tower in the later shot was perfect. I hope he got to see it somehow! You gotta love birds in the shots! Were those pelicans in the last ones?

    Great video thanks Michael. Yes, playing around with an interesting, constantly changing scene is great fun. You produced some wonderful results. I prefer the"simple shot with the birds". I have to say that place is a wonderful vantage point... Also if you're going for a macro lens, the Laowa lenses are great, really sharp and go to 2x BUT they aren't weather sealed at all. I don't know why they don't put at least a rubber gasket on the flange and a few seals inside, cheap to do. Personally as someone that has shot a lot of macro for decades, I'm often caught in bad weather or in wet, rainy forests and am always glad to have weather sealed kit..... That last image with the tail-light trails and fog on the bridge is fantastic.

    I love both images but I'd probably display the Bridge and Birds photo in more of a home or nature focused environment, and I love the image of the Bridge and the Person but can imagine it being displayed as a huge print in a commercial environment or an adventure store or something similar. Probably more than you wanted to know, but I love them both.

    • @MichaelShainblum
      @MichaelShainblum  День тому

      No, thank you so much for your thoughts on it, I think you are totally right, the person definitely gives more of a commercial appeal, where the birds and the bridge can be more of a fine art shot!

  • @richardpesce5325

  • @lightsandtones
    @lightsandtones 4 години тому

    I like both images. The one with the birds can be printed and hung on a wall, the other one with the person would tell the story really well in a photo book.
    A question if I may... What software do you use to create the timelapse from the images?
    And it's also a video idea if you could show some tips about it. I would be definitely interested.🙂

    Shot with humans and bridge is more relatable than birds via clever device screen could be totally different using another viewing platform or in person.

    What is your process for predicting low level fog? I take it there's plenty of it up in your neck of the woods, but would love some insight on websites or apps you use for pin pointing these conditions. Thanks!! You're such an inspiration!!

    1) Your first timelapse was for like 10 seconds, according to your camera screen it took you 36 minutes, was it longer then that?
    2) do you have a workshop on how to do timelapse coming soon?
    3) and thank you for all of your videos, they inspire me to do better!!

    • @MichaelShainblum
      @MichaelShainblum  День тому +1

      Hey there, I have a few timelapse videos on the channel you can check out. For that one the timing was off because it was set to like 2000 shots previously. I changed it to only do about 400 shots and it took about 6 mins to do the full timelapse.
