Over the past few years I have seen a lot of UA-cam presenters post stuff on unboxing new kit, initial impressions, longer-term reviews, 'how to use' and the like. Some have been fully serious, some very tongue-in-cheek, some street and/or landscape images and some boring, never to be watched again. In the main I have found them all to be great. Up to a point. Then I notice that my interest is no longer there, I no longer enjoy what the presenter is doing. In some cases the presenter has even closed their channel. Possibly other people feel the same, I don't know. However, since I watched my very first Mike Browne video, a LONG time ago now, he has NEVER failed to impress, entertain, teach and fully engage me. Great stuff Mike, I love it all and hope you keep producing for a long time to come. And one day, hopefully, you will be here in London so I can buy you a coffee. Or perhaps I will finally get to your home town or even join one of your workshops.
🙏😊 Thanks @oc2phish07. I will probaly be running a "Cameras Don't Take Pictures" seminar and photo walk in central London again in 2023. Make sure you're on my newsletter list if you don't want to miss it. Link below... MB www.photographycourses.biz/goodstuff
Were you a teacher or a professor before choosing Photography as your profession? You have a much much much fantastic way of explaining things Mike.... Keep them coming ❤
Not as such but having dyslexia I think it's given me a different way to communication information which a lot of people can relate to... Thanks for the comment 😀
Great Video Mike-- I am one that generally likes my photos people free when it is a landscape-- of course family and street photography, that is a different story-- If you are a DSLR shooter like I am-- A good way to get the bracket shots-- 1. Set to 2 second delay - 2. Shoot from live view- that disables the mirror and the camera will automatically take all shots with one button press.
I really liked the star burst image! Sometimes I think people in an image do add something. Sometimes I'd rather not. . . . . Thanks for that video Mike. I do appreciate it.
Thanks. Each shoot is given a file number and keyword set on a spreadsheet which lives on the cloud so i can find everything. Hard drives are carbon copied and stored at separate locations. ... MB🙏😊
Thanks Mike def need to practise, have had a play with setting it up in my camera but havent gone any further. Love those huts and yes I like people in shots, makes it real and gives perspective. Actually I just thought of a situation I really should use it on, something I do a bit of and I've just been fixing it in post. Cant wait to try it now. Thank you again.
As always, great advice and inspiring stuff. What I like about your course is the lessons are in bite size chunks. Only one criticism Mike - it's about time you did a day or two course up in my neck of the woods - North Yorkshire. Come on Mike - the fish and chips are much better up here.
There are two UA-cam channels that now offer free structured in depth photography courses - Leigh and Raymond Photography and Carl Taylor. How does your Masterclass photography course compare and why should I buy it?
Hi @Blacksmith. I have not looked at their courses so I can't comment on how it compares. All I can say is it has hundreds of 5 star Trustpilot reviews, is 100% refund guaranteed if you don't find it valuable (we've never recieved a refund request) and you can try a free sample so you can compare it yourself to see if you like the way I teach. Link to the page below, free sample is just below the 3 buy options. Hope this helps...

I’ve definitely saved this as it’s something I need to learn, thanks for the tips Mike. P.S. I watched a video of yours a couple of years ago that I was sure I’d saved but can’t seem to find it, not even on your channel unless I’ve just missed it, it was a car photography video where you photographed an older car if I remember correctly but it was against a shed so not the best place,m not your car either. It was one where you turned the lens as you pressed the shutter.
These are great shots with the bridge and the Hutt's but one other shop I would have gotten while I was there would be on the other side where the sun was eliminating them and having them a shot kind of it at a shallow angle I wear the color is kind of fading away as they get smaller in the distance
Looks like the same tree and huts from a video years ago with the white car where you taught us to move you and the camera to get rid of trouble spots😙
In the old days of film we called this BLAB working on Professional shoots - Bracket Like A B'#*&^%$ - saved our bacon on several occasions in the studio Photoshop couldn't help you in those days...

@@MikeBrowne Thank you Mike, I have been on the list for some time. I will now look forward eagerly to hearing about a visit.
The way of your teaching is simple but really effective sir. Love it. Thank you
Thank you Dr Nimish 😊
I don’t like photos with large burnout of the sun. Great job with the starburst, that is my fave. Well explained too 👍
Thanks for the feedback Martin 👍
Absolutely brilliant teaching as usual. Personally I prefer the starburst. 👍
Many thanks Phil 🙏😊

Good video Mike. Which camera are you using?
Thanks - Fuji XT2
I’ve definitely saved this as it’s something I need to learn, thanks for the tips Mike.

Was it this one Brian? ua-cam.com/video/X_C3gae9498/v-deo.html
@@MikeBrowne That’s the one, thanks Mike, really do appreciate it

Maybe next time 😉
Looks like the same tree and huts from a video years ago with the white car where you taught us to move you and the camera to get rid of trouble spots😙
ha ha - yep exactly the same spot from a different angle. It's a great location 🙏😊
Starburst image is my favourite, followed by with the person
Thanks Rob 🙏😊
Thanks
