Lukasz is the Bob Ross of photography. Instead of a nice little tree sitting down into a lake scene, it's a salaryman between two buildings.
Hahahah, I love that! Now I need a happy little fro. :)
In a sea of generic ‘top things to do’ videos, this was a fantastic video with very useful and helpful tips. Love your work and just ordered your Tokyo Unseen book.
Thank you so much!! I'm glad you find these ideas useful! And I really appreciate your picking up my book!! Thank you! :)
What an awesome tutorial. Thank you for this.
My pleasure!! :)
I got the book! It's great. I'm looking forward to the sequel Tokyo (bicycles) Unseen 😄
Thank you!! Haha, I would like to do a bicycle book some day! :)
Great video! Love to hear more about your process.
Thank you! :)
Two problems now... wanna get back to Tokyo and Ricoh GR3 ga hoshii desu!!! 🙂 great video, thanks for the helpful explanation.
Gotta save up the pennies! :)
Hurray - Thank you for the video!
Thanks for watching! :)
Loved the chat about heuristics when we had out workshop in Shibuya in March! Happy to discover more in this video!
Yes!! Actually, when we did we had already shot this haha, so it was fresh on my mind. :)
Great video Lukasz!
Thank you!! :)
Amazing stuff as always. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching! :)
always a delight when you guys come out with a video like this! helps a lot of us to shoot more mindfully by articulating these heuristics that would otherwise just be at the back of our minds. 🫶
Thank you for saying so!! Someone asked us to do a top5 heuristics video like... a year ago haha. We finally got it done! :)
Nice. Some things I had not considered before.
I'm happy to hear that! Thank you! :)
Great tips Lucatz!
Glad to hear it! :)
Excellent video. thank you so much.

This day looks far less windy than the night we were out on a workshop with Lukasz.
Yeah, it's not always so windy, but that was fun! :)
@@EYExplore It WAS fun.
Great video, and congrats on the book!
Thank you very much!!
Good stuff!
Thank you! :)
I gave some of these tips a whirl today, will tag you on IG when i upload it
Thank you!! :)
Shiodome always has something cool to see and shoot. Great video! :)
Yes, it really does. It's so elegant in its simplicity. :)
Cool video, cool spot. I stayed in Shiodome and loved the buildings. Thanks Lukasz

Really usefull thanks!. fyi great on my Quest 3 virtual fullscreen on UA-cam. Laurie NZ.
Thank you!! Wow, I wanna try one of the AR/VR headsets. :)
Of all the thousands of staircases in Tokyo I swear this must be your favourite. I've seen this particular staircase before in a previous video.......Oh! You just showed it as I was typing this reply LOL. AWESOME video!
Hahaha yeah, I have too many photos of it and it's hard to choose the 'best' one but the one I showed is in my book, so I guess it's my fave. And I like using it in videos to illustrate concepts because it's just so good for that! It's a little visual classroom. :)
Wonderful video, the tips you gave and demonstrated, produced superb looking shots and the way you explained them and gave examples, showed that, with practice, it can be quite simple. I was lucky enough to be given your book for Christmas and as a lover of your work, it was even better than I imagined. I showed a non-photography interested friend a picture from the book and she then sat and went through the whole book and ended up showing me the pictures she liked.
Thank you so much! Glad you found this video instructive! And I'm happy you and you friends enjoy my book as well, thank you very much! :)
This is a masterclass!
Thank you for the high praise! :)
Very informative sir thank you ❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
Glad you thought so! :)
5 stars! Thank you!
Thank you very much! :)
I recommend this workshop.
Thank you so much!! :)
Love your video, make me want to take some photos in Tokyo. Thanks! :D
That's great to hear! Thank you! :)
Most important heuristic is “WTF?” WHAT is your photo OF? What is your photo a photo ABOUT? That was how I read the title of your video. It works. It matters.
Good video. Very clear explanations.
Thanks!! :)
One heuristic that comes to my mind is naturally dividing the frame. Either with light or objects. For example one person in dark clothing walking in the light and other person walking in the shadows through a speck of light while the harsh shadow cutoff goes right through the middle (as a leading line) Or when walking a busy crossing is having a scene on the left, one person in the middle very close from behind dividing the frame, and a scene on the right.
Yes! That's another good one!
been here because of your interview with Jasong Wong
Awesome!! Thank you!! :)
In your example of the skyscrapers, I liked the one you discarded, which does not have an attractive angle. If you look at it well and convert it to black and white, it is a very powerful image.
In the end it all depends on the eyes that see the photos.
This is absolutely true. These are just tools, but when you employ them is up to you. Sometimes that do not work and take away from a scene. :)
Like being part of a workshop ❤ Awesome 👍
Yes!! Glad that comes across! :)
Very insightful! I’d love to see a video on how you choose the time of day and weather to shoot particular scenes or moods :).
Ah, well, I rarely really choose consciously. It's more like, I have free time, I go shoot. So, I'm very flexible and open to anything really. :)
@@EYExplore ah, I see ;). Thanks for the reply!
Enjoyable post, Lukasz. Classic methods dressed in posh lexicon😊. Less is more, aka perimeter check. Diagonal lines convey tension. Dutch tilt. Through things, aka “frame the fill”. Edge alignment a new twist. Cool venue, not many people around. What time of day were you filming? Starbucks must feel slighted😊.
Yeah, the concepts are not something that comes out of nowhere, but I learned them through different means. For example, I never considered the diagonal framing to have anything to do with a Dutch angle. The reason is that, I'm trying to use the angle to create some kind of alignment with the frame and the geometry in the image, creating a kind of harmony. Whereas I always felt Dutch angles give me a sense of unease and confusion, usually used to bolster that kind of narrative in films. I guess, this is where the last point comes in: the geometric considerations should play into the narrative of the image. Maybe I'm just splitting hairs hahah. :)
Anyway, I think it was a bit early, say 10am?
One of my favorite EYExplore videos, an instant classic! I saved it to my “Photography” playlist to rewatch for practice.
Oh great, thank you so much! :)
You know I have a macro lens with a z50. I like taking shots of plants that are a little farther away and try to frame the shot with blurred leaves and flowers to add a sort of fluffy colorful tint and texture to the photo. At the same time it leads the eye toward the object that is clear. It also sort of creates this sense of looking at it secretly. At least that’s what my brain tells me😅. So I guess using the branches, leaves, and flowers to blur around the main object would be a heuristic.
That is definitely a heuristic! I like employing it too for portraits when I do take those. :)
Laowa 10mm f2.8 Zero D lens ?. An IDEAL location to review this lens I am saving up for. fyi. Laurie NZ.
So wide! :)
@@EYExplore Yes! I thought they might be interested in loaning you one if you were interested etc, for a review.
The huge revelation from this video is that Axel has four legs!
Hahahahahah, yeah he's a centaur!! (We had a sneaky Charles along with us on this shoot.)
Thank you for your great passionate videos. I recently became aware of this channel. I have your great book Tokyo Unseen. Very nice. Keep it up.
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoy the channel and thank you for getting the book! I really appreciate that! :)
who you callin a heuristic? me?!!?
Haha, I'm not a ristic, YOU-a-ristic! :)
Thank you for showing us your hammer
Haha, any time! :)
@@EYExplore 😂 Really appreciate a new GR video tho jokes aside
@@moncilu Thanks! :)
