  • The lesson "everything and anything is photographable" might seem pretty straightforward at first.
    It encourages us to be open-minded and curious about the world around us. It challenges us to look beyond the obvious and to see the potential for art and beauty in the everyday. It help us develop a deeper appreciation for the world and our place in it.
    When we embrace this lesson, we start to pay attention to the world around us in a different way. We become more aware of the small details, the subtle changes in light and color, and the unique characteristics of the places and people we encounter. We start to see the patterns and rhythms of our own lives.
    In this way, photography can be a form of meditation, a way to slow down and pay attention to our surroundings. By being present in the moment we can develop a greater sense of mindfulness and appreciation for the world we live in.

    I've now watched 3 of your videos and have subscribed to your channel. I could listen to you talk all day. One of the things I especially like is that you are talking about the philosophy of photography, not f-stops, and expensive "must have'" equipment, etc. Keep up the great work.

      I'm glad you're liking the channel, Frank! I'm hoping to keep bringing more of the philosophical of Photography to UA-cam :)

    Stephen Shore new to me. Requested Uncommon Places from the library. Thanks for the rec.

      I'm glad I introduced you to him. Let me know what you think about the book.

    This is a wonderful episode. If one is going to find beauty in the everyday and the mundane, one has to slow down and notice and really see - a true skill! I'm eager to see what the public library has available by Stephen Shore so I can decide what I might like to add to my library. Last year I discovered a photographer named Martin Buday who published a book called, "Prophetic Kingdom." He most certainly was influenced by shore. Thanks, and I'm looking forward to more episodes.

      I hadn't heard of Martin Buday! Thanks for the tip and I'm glad you enjoyed the video :)

    My ideas about Shore's photographs were similar to yours, but before I watched your video I didn't really understand the implications of his work. So now I have a much better understanding not only of Shore's work but of photography in general. Thanks for the enlightenment, Sergio. And...
    ..this also expands on your previous video about Martin Parr.

      I'm glad the video helped you somehow! :) And yes, both videos have a unifying thread for sure hehe

    Great job on the video Sergio! Very interesting subject and indeed a beautiful insight on how to experience more beauty in our everyday lives.

    Good work Sergio! I subscribed and hope to see many more episodes like this -informative and enjoyable. I too am a photographer of the mundane and the ordinary, but mostly because that’s what I have to work with , and not by choice 😊. I am happy with how it’s progressing, and I find it meditative. Because like you said, extraction and recognition of the beauty in daily life is essential for sustaining it.

    over-rated really.

      Sure. That's also a valid opinion.

    • @keiga4370
      @keiga4370 8 місяців тому

      take away the name, the label, the brand, mix these images with that of an unknown photographer, and see if you can still really see something in his photos.

      @@keiga4370 I still do, the same when I see photos of other "lesser known" photographers. I'm a big fan of boring photography :)
