This was absolutely amazing, for the love of god pleaasseee keep on making informative video’s like this. Your out here creating actual artists and helped me a LOT to the journey of becoming good at anything artistic more than only photographs! Thanks for everything
If you're a photo journalist then by all means, don't edit your photos because they're supposed to show the scene exactly as it is. Otherwise it's up to the individual artist to edit their images the way they like them. Exactly as you said, there probably isn't a photo publicly displayed somewhere that hasn't had some type of editing done to it. Even the purists that have to get everything right in camera and don't do any post processing editing display a processed image if they shot it in jpeg. Whether they want to admit it or not, their camera edited the photo to add sharpening, contrast, noise reduction, etc. So even their "right out of the camera" shot has been edited. Anymore I've gotten to the point where I don't care if someone says my image was edited. In fact I tell them yes it was because that's the way I saw the image and how I wanted it to look. I'm not a photo journalist, I'm a digital artist that happens to use a camera as a tool.
It’s a bit like saying you aren’t editing the photograph by composing it, in which you remove a large part of the world to concentrate on the bit you like. It’s always been an idiots stance when you get ‘I don’t edit’ comments in camera forums.
Ah yes, I know the feeling, and I'm not even a good photographer...but the comment about gear kills me. It's like saying "Wow, your mom has a nice stove, she must be a great cook!!! "
It's very seldom I ever take a photo and think it looks perfect SOC. Editing is not only an essential part of crafting a look but it's probably my favorite part of the process. Although it's a double edged sword because some photographers take editing to the extreme and it's simply not tasteful.
I've just discovered your channel and I'm slowly working my way through your videos, and I'm absolutely shocked at just how few views you're getting given the phenomenal production value. It's almost criminal.
Bro are you kidding me
That intro made me throw my computer out the window. You owe me a new computer. Or atleast keep making videos. Thank you.
man is litteraly the vsauce of photography
TIL green is a primary color
Baffling to me how few views these get considering they’re some of the best production quality on the platform and the storytelling & information is sooo well thought out. You’re an inspiration mate!
Such a masterfully crafted video!
I love what you said at the end. Sometimes the raw image feels less sentimental because it just did not quite capture all the beautiful aspects of it that made you decide to lift up your camera in the first place and if editing will make that happen then sign me up. Always a pleasure watching your videos!
Your videos always have that photography school kind of feeling with such precise research and creativity. Thank you. So much.
What a beautiful freaking video. Not just visually.
Didn’t expect such a great history lesson. Thank you!
Unreal mate, attention to detail is mind blowing. Thanks for sharing and creating!
this has to be one of the best video essays on the topic of editing out there. outstanding writing and wonderful photographs.
This video was phenomenal, just discovered your channel and I can’t wait to check out the rest
really incredible man. i know everyone else has said it already but this deserves way more views
