Today I picked up my camera with a new enthusiasm after watching your talk last night, Lester. The early morning alarm didn't make me hide under the bed covers & the tripod never felt so light. The panic of getting to the location was replaced by the simple joy of being there instead. The view through the lens never felt so good. Many thanks.
Thanks for sharing, Lester. Love your easy going style, and the sense that life, and indeed photography, is all one great adventure that we can enjoy if we put our minds to it. ... Muchos gracias!
I was on a trip in Giant Mountains, Czech Republic, near the end of one hike, there were those giant steep stairs made of chunks of rock, each step was over a foot tall, and when the group I was with made it down, I turned around and wanted to take a shot of the stairs, but without a person for scale, they just looked mediocre, like normal stairs, it was impossible to tell how big they were from a photo. I didn't want to wait for strangers to come and I didn't want to make anyone from my friends to go up the stairs again just for that one photo, so I missed that shot. Just got remimded of it while watching the video. great and sensible advice, some of which I have already figured out the hard way, but I really appreciate videos like this! Very helpful and informative!
B&H videos are some of the best resources out there. Guys thank you so much for taking the time to share these with us, beside running what is probably my favorite camera shop online. Seriously.
Great presentation,well informative video,excellent with great humor,fantastic photos filled with great advice and when i travel i will now look at new ways to plan my photos and getting to the location early B and H keep coming up with the best videos with amazing tips.thank you.
Very beautiful and well informative video! I am so happy to have found this video as I am going to pursue photography at the end of this month. This video opened my mind up to some really great things that I have never given much thought to before. Thank you so much!
TIP: if you have Lightroom for post production.. you can "Photo merge" two or more photos together & create wide angle shots ( Panoramas ) making any focal length lens into a wide angle...
Amen on the three Ps. For me. the Nikkor 14-24 f.2.8 and the 24-120 f.4 cover almost everything I shoot. That may not work for everyone, but it does for me.I'm still using a D800 body; Kodachrome 25 was my go to film.
Great video and filled with info. Will watch it again to pick up more, but is it just me or did a lot of the photos seemed tilted to the left? Was it the projector in B&H or ...?
Great video. I studied at Daytona Beach Photographic College. Well, studied most of the time, have to take advantage of being in Daytona for 2 years. LOL
Hi, thanks for your question - though, without context it’s hard to remember what you’re referring to. If you’d like, please contact Lester Lefkowitz at Lester@LesterLefkowitz.com. Thank you!
Looking at the world through a screen might be like looking at the world through a straw if that straw could be expanded by pinching and zooming but I'm not aware of such a straw.
42:45 - That's the sunset, not the sunrise. Camera is facing East for that picture of Toronto. Also, that picture must be ancient, there's no CN Tower!
Great video! But, not even close at how "Casa Batlló" is pronounced. And let's hope, that by the next time that you visit Barcelona, you could add another country to your list. ;)
Anakin Yang : Bear in mind that depending on what screen you are watching on hues will look different, especially if your screen is not calibrated properly. Perhaps they are all greener than usual but I am not getting that on my iPad or my laptop. Might be your screen dude.

Thank you B&H. I continue to learn so much from your sponsored videos and talks. Old and new.

Great presentation. Really enjoyed this compared to the presentations that bombard you with technical data.
Great video and filled with info. Will watch it again to pick up more, but is it just me or did a lot of the photos seemed tilted to the left? Was it the projector in B&H or ...?
Love it, enjoy how you shoot your stuff
This guy is great, love his humor.
Nikon's 1st pro digital camera body was about 14 mp, and the price tag, body only, was $30,000! That's not a typo/
Very nice presentation, and the photographs are lovely. I love the warming effects on them. great work!
Another clue for electrified fences: The posts have insulators on them. A yellow one in this photo.
good advice,guidance and inspiration
Great video. I studied at Daytona Beach Photographic College. Well, studied most of the time, have to take advantage of being in Daytona for 2 years. LOL

Nice, straight forward talk. Nice work! :-)
Really good video :D it gave me tons of ideas
Great tips! Most of the shots need WB correction.
Victor Might be your screen, they look ok to me.
Please, be aware that the East side of the river by St. Louis is a dangerous place. Very rough and dangerous.

Why do all your photos look green ?
+Anakin Yang Why is your last name not Skywalker?

Wait a moment... Did he say 16 countries he travalled to ? Only 16 ?! Maybe he wanted to say 60...
I think you mean whether... a wether is a castrated sheep. Just sayin'
didn't like it
SaZooCaballero Fair enough. I look forward to your B&H presentation #justsaying
Yeah I don't like white chocolate either, leaves a gummy taste in my mouth. I tell everybody all the time just so they know.
