Hi Simon, my name is Artur, 16 years old, and I am also a fellow Canadian photographer. I found your channel a little over a month ago and I haven’t watched photography videos with such great advice and quality. I have been photographing for 4 years now and your channel has helped my photography tremendously. After watching your videos I feel more confident that I am able to do the things that have seemed like a stumbling block in the past, such as composition and post processing. You’re the first UA-camr I am actually going to subscribe to. Thanks for the great content and keep it up
Same I'm from Canada's west coast and this video brought me back to a photo I took a month ago with this exact problem down a tunnel. Your video on the milky way got me hooked on nightscape photography and I'm learning all the time. Thanks for the videos!
Hi Simon, my name is Dan, I have 12 years old and I’m living and Uruguay. I wanted to say that I very like your channel and I’m subscribed. I’m using and the canon 90d and with the canon 300mm f4. Maybe you can give me some tips to photograph wildlife?
Get a bad camera and make the most of it before upgrading. Have days where you practice only using black and white. That will force you to work purely on your skills andyou will get further much sooner tjan you otherwise would. Have a good journey! ❤ @@Danalmog-dq8sy
What I like about his videos, is that unlike other channels, he's not starting with the idea that you should first buy more stuff to get better results. He's working within the confines of the equipment and making the best of those available features. Many other channels fall into the GAS category; Gear Acquisition Syndrome. I my experience you get better results by first mastering what you have, and then if you do somehow outgrow it, buy new stuff judiciously.
Finding that line between over-editted and under-editted can be tricky for beginners. 100% agree that it's a personal taste and there is no "right" answer. Have confidence, and never apologize for having your own style. Andy Warhol and Rembrandt and Monet are all completely different, but they're all wonderful in their own way.
100% agree. I often have to remind myself that I have full control over my photo taking and editing process, my photos are my style and not my friends or my teachers, and I can make it look how I’d like it to look! Ofc there are some “rules” that make photos generally just look better. Like have a well exposed photo or using composition properly, but those rules can be creatively broken in a way that creates an inspiring photo!
Even when I am familiar with the topic, I still learn things that I never really even thought about from your concise instructional videos. You really make the complex simple. Thank you, Simon!
I did it. I finally bought camera and lense according to your recommendations. I went out and took my very first bird picture. I know it's not perfect, but i love it. It's a cute little sparrow sitting in the bush right infront of my house. This feels so good. Thank you Simon for your videos and advices!
Once again Simon, you have demonstrated methods to improve one's photography via understanding what your specific gear and software is capable of, then using those features. You don't need to go out and spend thousands on new gear. Just know what you have and take advantage of it. Bravo!
I have been taking photographs since 1988, but your videos always teach me something new, kudos. I'd say unequivocally the best photography masterclass on UA-cam, thank you.
Hi Simon, I'm a beginner photographer and I just wanted to say THANK YOU! You create educational content like no other and all your videos have helped me so much! I appreciate you sharing your knowledge in such an eloquent and wholesome way. If you ever come to Australia, please please hold a workshop - I'd very much like to learn more from you!
Simon, I also stumbled across your page just a few days ago, and have already watched dozens of your videos. I greatly appreciate your calm and sensible demeanor. One thing I always appreciate is the fact that you teach what works well, what may not work well, what you prefer, then always invite people to do what they find most beneficial or comfortable for them. I have a hard time listening to someone that teaches in absolutes, so this is very refreshing. I purchased my first SLR (Canon 450D / xSi) 16 or 17 years ago, and moved on to a 70D after a few years, grabbed a few lenses, and then eventually jumped the Canon ship to a Sony A6400 at launch. I'm not sure what I was looking for, but the Sony hardware was certainly impressive, yet I sorely missed the ergonomics and ease of controls of the Canon. It made photography a little more of a chore. I'm happy to say I'm getting back into Canon with an R8 and RF 24-105 F4, and have been soaking up a lot of your content. Thank you so much for sharing your passion and talent! I'm actually excited, and not scared, to try editing my own photos for the first time ever!
This is the proper way to do it. I've seen many HDR pictures with unnatural tones, you spot them a mile away. This captures the scene as the "eye" (actually there's a lot of processing in the visual part of the brain) captures it.
I always shoot a 3-image RAW bracket 1.5-2 stops, except moving subjects. Saves me from checking exposure, providing 3 to work with in Lightroom. When there's a wide range of exposure in an image, I can export 2 or 3 layers to photoshop and mask the auto-aligned layer as needed. Blown highlights are much more difficult to recover than shadows, so underexposure is preferred.
Wonderful video, straight to the point. I watched 11:54 skipping 0 seconds. I’m so glad and grateful that I found your channel too early in the second month of learning photography
Bracketing for night photos - the bane of exposing for night photos which include city lights is OVER not UNDER exposure. That said, I dial in one stop under exposure compensation along with a three stop bracketing. This will give me one image as the meter reads, one image at 1-stop under and one image at 2-stops under. Usually one of these will be the best but, you can always combine the three shots into an HDR image. This is great for shooting city scapes and christmas lights at night.
Thank you for this, Simon! While watching UA-cam videos, I've often heard the term "exposure bracketing," but I never knew when or how to use it. Ive got a big trip next week and this technique will be useful. Additionally, that transform tool you mentioned is something I've been searching for forever. These wide-angle lenses can cause some crazy distortion, and correcting them is arduous. My family and friends appreciate my photos (I think), and I appreciate you for helping me make them better/more tolerable.Thanks for all you do.
Every time I watch one of your videos I learn something new, even if the title makes me think it won't be the case... this time it's the transformation tool that I didn't even know existed. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience with us.
Hi Simon.. thanks for once again being kind enough to share your knowledge and skills for the benefit of the thousands of photographers out there who just want to make great pictures for themselves,their friends and there families - much appreciated…👍
i am following you since 80k (from belgium) you sure are a great teacher! 500k and still going, now it needs to be 1 mil! i realy hope you will make that! i will root for you!
Haven't watched yet, but just came to say the new thumbnail is worth it. Your face is worth more to me than a side by side comparison. I saw the old thumbnail and scrolled past. I didn't realize it was you until I check my subscriptions feed and saw the same video there.
Every video is a lesson packed full of great advice and always presented in a way that everyone can understand. You remove the fear of photography and replace it with confidence.
I wasn’t going to watch this one because I’ve used exposure bracketing before, including Lr merging and editing, to good effect. However, I watched anyway because you just never know! And, who’d of thought, I didn’t realise that using the timer on my camera would make the camera take the 3 shots. So, as I’ve said before, I always learn something from your videos. You’re so generous giving up your time and knowledge to help us become better photographers.
Simon, you are truly an exceptional educator. This topic had been intimidating to me, but your clear instruction has made me eager to try it. Seems this is a situation where the majority of the difficult lies not in getting the shot(s), but in mastering the complex editing software.
This is so awesome!! I knew the tiniest details about what exposure bracketing was, and this makes it seem so easy!! I can’t wait to give it a try my self!!
Your positivity in teaching is very welcomed-- I have been using bracketing for quite some time and almost always use it on my sunrises and sunsets. My only request is some videos of you in the field taking pics. I know those generally are harder to do but I appreciate when you are in the field.
Hi Simon, I really want to thank you for all your help with my photography. I started shooting with my Panasonic Lumix Fz35 about three months ago, but I've learned so much things thanks to your advice. Your tips were a total game-changer!
i was seeing this video (partially) right before i was going out for trying to shoot a sunset. and boy was i blowing away with the results. litterally didnt know this stuff and i am so glad i do now
I've been using LRC and only really used it to do basic processing of images and managing my archive - I HAD NO IDEA it could do all of this. You my fine sir are AMAZING!
Great stuff Simon. And the _live_ shots of editing are a nice touch. Earlier camera models with bracketing generally offer fewer brackets than today. Canon would have 3. Nikon of the same age would have more, 5 or 7. Today most all have at least 3 but as many as 7 is common. Although, as pointed out, more than 3 may not be needed. I've never used more than 3. Even some mobile phone cameras offer bracketing. The terrific Open Camera by Mark Harman for Android offers a dynamic range optimization mode, high dynamic range mode, exposure bracketing, & focus bracketing, saving in raw, plus much more.
Simon, you have it in you! Answering my questions and addressing my doubts even before I think about. BTW, your free backlit photography helped my improvement in that kind of image, what I really like
I'm currently on holiday in Norway and thanks to your videos I have take a more and especially better quality images. I think that I'm getting my settings and composition quite nice, now the only thing that's left is the editing part. Thanks for everything 😊
A couple of notes, I know a lot of landscape photographers swear by ISO 100, but I've noticed with my R6 that ISO 100 tends to have more noise than 400 or 800 that is more difficult to remove via AI denoise. I believe it's because at 100 you get more read noise than gain noise. Also, for Canon shooters, switch to manual and set your aperture and shutter speed appropriately, then switch ISO to auto and now it will bracket by changing ISO, which is great for handheld landscape.
Would 100% watch a livestream of Simon editing more of his photos. Great info, very educational, and not to mention cathartic looking at a photo you thought was headed for trash be turned into not just salvageable but very nice!
I have been quite busy lately trying to get our house sold in the Michigan area. I just happen to catch this video as Im beginning to get my thoughts together for fall. What great timing! I havent perfected the process yet but seeing how simple you make the post processing is just super info to have. Now if I can remember how to do the camera settings. Thank you sir - and have a great fall shooting season.
Select sky is a great idea!! I always used the general adjustments and as result most of my bracketed images look terrible. The mental switch to use the masks is a bit hard but so useful. Thanks for the great tips!! Cheers
You are a col dude! Always providing simplified, easily understandable versions of photography questions I want answers to. Thank you for being you and sharing. Plus I enjoy hearing you say your name.
Simon Simon!! What great topics you are covering!! And I can express how much I adore your advises. I started following your tips and I feel that your every next video is coming in a logical progression as a next chapter! I think I can now solely focus on one reliable mentor!!! Thanks for existing!! ❤
Always a pleasure watching these videos. I may know how to do most of it already, but its always the small stuff you add that help. (Like the sky selection for the sun, would have never thought of it!)
Another great video, Simon! I will refer to this one as needed in the future when I need to use exposure bracketing. I also use Canon and Lightroom which makes this video particularly useful for me. Thanks a bunch!
man I was suffering for this issue for almost one year bought ND filter tried bla bla bla ,,, man thank you soooooooooo much man you save me , God bless you man .. Subscribing
I have been struggling with successful creating an HDR image. This video is extremely helping and has helped me address many of the challenges I have been having. Thank you!
@@MatthewDairon Over the years I have had to use it less. Because newer gear has such great data, I cancel the Merge and work with the best of the 3 or 5 shots. The bracket settings do matter. Too wide and too few maybe all garbage.

I've been doing photography for 20+ years (just amateur fun, nothing professional... yet?), but i still like watching your videos, it's always nice to learn a few tips and tricks. Although i'm already familiar with most of these things, there's always room to improve. Thank you for sharing your knowledge! :)
Great tips thanks! The transform too I have tried a few times without luck as I obviously did not use it properly. You did that part so fast I didn't quite catch how it was done. Maybe a video on this subject. I had that happen recently attempt at transform but successful! Thanks for sharing great tips! You are one of the best photography instructors.
I have been wanting to know how to do this for a while! I love your videos Simon! You teach everything in such a simple and easy to understand way. Thank you so much for charing your knowledge!!!
Thanks! I definitely going to try this soon! Normally when I want to take a landscape with a lot of dynamic range I just use my phone with automatic HDR, but the quality of the photos is not comparable to what comes out of my proper camera :)
Another great video. I had a shot today that needed exposure bracketing and I wasn't happy with the result so I came here and found this video. I was pleased to see the 16mm RF lens getting such good results. I had the same lens, but I think the copy I had wasn't very good. I was constantly having issues with it and decided to let go of it since I also had the 15-35 2.8. However, I loved the compact size and weight for travel. Making a mental note to try another copy of the 16mm RF when I see one. Cheers!
I have to say that thumbnail is pretty good! And, of course, the video brings new knowledge and it is easy to follow for beginners like myself, thank you!
Another awesome and super useful tutorial! This is one element I really want to add to some of my Milky Way photography, so this gives me something new to experiment with. I haven't seen if you have any videos yet on focus stacking (ideally in Starry Landscape Stacker), but I'd love to see something like that from you!
Excellent advice on something that I am currently struggling with. I've known about exposure bracketing, but would just pick the best of the three; now I can't wait to try stacking them. I also was changing the exposure manually, not knowing that the camera could do it for me!
I use this technique while shooting industrial images. A lot of times the inside of the factory will be dark but have big dock doors open flooding in a bunch of light near the door.
Just finished watching this tutorial-absolutely loved it! Your explanations were super clear and easy to follow. Can’t wait to try it out myself. Thanks for sharing! 😊New subscriber
Hi Simon ! I'm from St-Eustache in Quebec and we were in Nova Scotia last week for our vacation. I photograph the same lighthouse (and a few others 😝) in almost the same composition. We were thinking of you while in the Yartmouth area because there was a lot of d'Entremont. I would have love to meet you in person. We loved our vacation and Nova Scotia is such a beautiful and relaxing place. ♥ Your videos are always so interesting. Thanks for all the tips and tricks.

is refreshing.

Thanks! I definitely going to try this soon! Normally when I want to take a landscape with a lot of dynamic range I just use my phone with automatic HDR, but the quality of the photos is not comparable to what comes out of my proper camera :)
Have fun!
You are a magician with Lightroom! Thank you so much for sharing these tips, I'm learning a great deal watching your videos 😀
You are so welcome!
Saved and favorited this video. Thank you Professor d'Entremont!
Glad it was helpful!
An excellent detail in this tutorial Simon. Thanks.
Another great video. I had a shot today that needed exposure bracketing and I wasn't happy with the result so I came here and found this video. I was pleased to see the 16mm RF lens getting such good results. I had the same lens, but I think the copy I had wasn't very good. I was constantly having issues with it and decided to let go of it since I also had the 15-35 2.8. However, I loved the compact size and weight for travel. Making a mental note to try another copy of the 16mm RF when I see one. Cheers!
Another outstanding video...clear information without belaboring the topic. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
This was an excellent video, thank you! ❤
You are so welcome!
Thank you very mutch for your explanation. I struggle alot with HDR or Bracketing, now i have someting to try my self. Have a great time 🙋♂
Wow, this is just what I needed right now. I love your whole vibe here.
I’m always so excited when I see a new Simon video ❤️🧡
I have to say that thumbnail is pretty good! And, of course, the video brings new knowledge and it is easy to follow for beginners like myself, thank you!
Such a great tutorial. The creative tasks are endless. This will keep me busy for life! 😃❤
Great vid Simon. Those last tips on processing were awesome. Thanks
Simon with another legendary video. Merci.
Another awesome and super useful tutorial! This is one element I really want to add to some of my Milky Way photography, so this gives me something new to experiment with. I haven't seen if you have any videos yet on focus stacking (ideally in Starry Landscape Stacker), but I'd love to see something like that from you!
It’s on my to-do list!
@@simon_dentremont I will be watching for it!
Excellent advice on something that I am currently struggling with. I've known about exposure bracketing, but would just pick the best of the three; now I can't wait to try stacking them. I also was changing the exposure manually, not knowing that the camera could do it for me!
Glad it was helpful!
I have learned a lot from very day I started to follow and hopefully to learn more ,thank you
Great to hear!
Super video, thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Glad you found it helpful!
I use this technique while shooting industrial images. A lot of times the inside of the factory will be dark but have big dock doors open flooding in a bunch of light near the door.
Excellent video Simon!!!
Excellent video I love that you showed how to use editing in photos, I am excited to try this!
Great tool for the toolbox that completely transforms a photo and expertly explained to boot!

Hello Simon! Thank you again for your amazing tips that always helps a lot 💪🏼👏🏻
My pleasure!
Hi Simon ! I'm from St-Eustache in Quebec and we were in Nova Scotia last week for our vacation. I photograph the same lighthouse (and a few others 😝) in almost the same composition. We were thinking of you while in the Yartmouth area because there was a lot of d'Entremont. I would have love to meet you in person. We loved our vacation and Nova Scotia is such a beautiful and relaxing place. ♥ Your videos are always so interesting. Thanks for all the tips and tricks.
