This multi picture approach is what I like most about sequencing a photo book. Over the years those books have become my real medium. The pictures on my hard drives have become mere means on that way.
Thank you for these tips. What you say here makes me think . About multiple photos of a subject. You're quite right . But sometimes you lose your way. Thank for the tips wish you ole the best .🙏
I also love taking multiple photos around a popular location, but of other people! Used to get some cracking candid shots especially in places like Bangkok or KL.
3 sounds quite right! 6 - not so much. 5 is better (rule of odds) … 😁 Since I'm into large format pinhole photography, a single shot of one locations is often all I can manage (before my wife gets too bored). But sometimes I just return to a location for a better shot, or for alternative shots. Going for three shots that would work together is an interesting take, I'll keep it in mind!
Thank you so much for this advice. It's just what I needed. I was feeling stale in my photography but went into central London and took 3 good multiple shots each of Westminster Abbey and The Palace of Westminster.
And again very thoughtful insight, very well explained and thought through. And complemented by great examples. Answering your question: always doing many shots in one location but - so far - just played around and missing the concept of storytelling. I‘ll change that in the future. Great advice.
Hi Craig, I think your photos are striking and especially the ones in the fog. Like your philosophy to photography like when you say you embrace Eyesores and you don't do PRETTY, or SUNSETS. My preference when shooting is a set of photos where i can put them in a photo Album. Like the Rod Stewart Album and the Adam Ant Album you had a while ago. Thanks for sharing this video. 😃
marvelous words I will take to heart as my next project. By the way I feel your delivery and speaking style is compelling and dynamic leading me to enjoy all your videos
I'm a single capture kind of cat. But then i like my IG grid to be pure randomness. In subject, focal length, colours subjects. The only consistency being my eye and that i restrict myself to square format.
@@e6Vlogs This perhaps is a to each their own situation. Some of the best shots I've taken were just wild what ifs that I probably would not have even tried with film due to the expense. OTOH, if you were shooting photos where I am you may have very well taken that "great shot" matching mine because you have a more practiced eye.
@@e6Vlogs But I really am a firm believer in getting things as close to spot on in camera as possible. Having that mindset improves one's skill, IMO, and a minute or two of thought on scene can save a lot of editing time later. Plus, it reduces the amount of cropping one needs to do saving pixels so one can get a larger print if large prints are one's cup of tea.
Not to take the wind out of your sails, but you’re not first. e6subscribers get to see these videos before anyone else, so you’re never really first! 😄
Best shot, something you put out on social media and nobody 'likes' it. Result, you know you've got something original !
Brilliant 🙂
So true! 😂

Interesting and thought provoking!

Rockin Out at the end there...Love it !! And Thanks for another inspiring video...

3 is the Magic number. Just ask De La Soul..
Lovely photography as ever. A question. If you present a series should it be in the same format, all colour, all b/w ? IShould it be consistent?
Entirely up to you. Personally, I like to mix things up.
"stand in the tripod holes of previous visitors" - Love tit :-)
"GAP THE MIND"..... is that the way you approach a new photo location? Or maybe you just have a dyslexic housekeeper!
Sorry, that wasn't the Brooklyn bridge.
Correct. Well done for spotting that. You now go on to round two. What’s my favourite type of cheese?

First!!! (Puerile, I know, but I had to do it. I just had to...)
Lol. I would too but never had a chance. Never been 1st.

Single shot here. Move on. More to see. Life's too short. Working a scene makes it feel like.. well, work really
