Photographing the Spirits of Carnival with Jason Gardner

I normally lose interest in photography videos after 12-13 minutes or so but your discussions with different photographers are absolutely fascinating and hold my attention. Thanks for producing these and engaging with extremely interesting people. 👍🙂

Great to see you on KZbin. I an subscribed but haven't seen you for a long time. Always nice to see more of this.

Absolutely love this shot! And for me, What I find most captivating of this shot, despite the action and fire and emotion, I'm very intrigued by the street light in the background to the right and how it creates an interesting gradient. I believe Steve referred to it as the temperature of the shot. Honestly, this photo seems like it could be a painting! And I don't even know what I mean by that. There is a lot of captivating elements to it.

Yup. That’s my fave part of this. That light changes the story significantly, and that’s the color temp difference I was speaking to. It adds depth and context to the heat and warmth of the fire. Thanks for watching!

​@BehindTheShot Actually I figured it out why that part of the Photo is intriguing to me. The people being lit under that light look almost cloud-like, almost looking like a nebula, the light a star. So this image actually is now very surreal looking to me because part of it (the right side) looks to be happening in space. Just an overall amazing image that doesn't look real but is!

@hersh23 Good call. I totally see that vibe now.
