[@marco_o_]

Jared, what software is been used to edit photos? Big fan and leaning a lot from your photography knowledge.

[@LetArtsLive]

Some photographers think that you should get the shot from the camera not the effects afterwards. Is that what these people are doing they're not using after effects? Whatever you call that? Some people that went to college think I'm no good cuz I didn't so I'm not a photographer I'm not an artist because they're way above me. I don't think they are.

[@LetArtsLive]

One image I got took weeks to get it's not from a really good camera it's from a Kodak z650 But the lens was good. I was trying to get a picture of Monarch butterflies and my boys and I were camping in the woods. And Daniel who has passed he caught Monarch in his hands. He's said Daddy I caught one. And when he opened his hands I got the shot and it flew away. And people said it's photoshopped but it's not. I believe if I'm feeling good and happy then my pictures look good and happy. I don't think you need a super expensive camera to get a decent image do you? I'd like to see a professional tell the difference between the most expensive cannon in the 90d. I don't think they could am I wrong?

[@deejaydc89]

I was the one who submitted my wife holding our newborn baby. The crazy thing about that photo is that we kept the gender a surprise since we had a boy and girl already. We wanted another girl but all the signs pointed to boy. We got in the hospital too late for pain management so she did it all natural and I caught the exact moment she looked down through all the pain and said, it's a girl!

[@froknowsphoto]

wow, that's pretty amazing, thanks for sharing!!!

[@akirafan28]

Congrats! 😊

[@deejaydc89]

Thanks guys!

[@BokushingusKendoTV]

Powerful! Congratulations and thank you for sharing!

[@outtathyme5679]

Love that photo! Great emotion. Congrats

[@Hogtopia]

1, 5 and 7 were my favorites. 1 has a story, 5, is a peek into the person's quiet time and 7 has a sense of our desire to lear a universe that is sooo big and full of adventure.

[@AlexTaraPhoto]

1 - The innocence of the kid - the way he is hiding and the photographer captured the curiosity of the kid in one split moment.

[@cayden7725]

"There were boobs coming up next but I'm here on a rabbit." This is why I'm subscribed. You're too funny Jared, great review.

[@Impulse1919]

I didn't set the world on fire but didn't get my photo torn apart either. As an early stage photographer that's a win in my book! Thanks for letting me submit my photo! Keep it up Jared!

[@tennisplaya24]

Thanks Jared, I submitted the landscape on Lake Michigan with the lines you liked. So much appreciate the feedback man, and thanks for doing what you do!!!

[@Laurpec]

5. I’m a sucker for amazing lighting and I just love the way everything comes together.

[@kingajaniszewski5231]

No. 5 (woman reading with dog on the steps etc) I think they nailed the colours/tone and it's got context. The framing is spot on. It is the one that stood out for me when you went through the "top 7"

[@Lazarus52980]

Did anyone else freak out a bit on the mama and baby bear photo when they saw it was taken with a 70-200?!? Photo was cool, but no way it was worth the risk (unless that was in a zoo or something)

[@Pilot7826]

I submitted the photo at 17:11. Thanks for the positive critique, Jared! 🤙🏻 Much appreciated.

[@user-pe8ir4iy1e]

it's a good picture because it's almost like those two cats were discussing some business behind those cars when you found them and the main cat lookin at you like mind your own business!!

[@DRIVECLUBistimelessPS4]

@@user-pe8ir4iy1e well that's basically your own projection, i don't see that scenario at all :D

[@BorisUrumov]

#5 with the columbs is probably my fav out ALL of them. The light is just perfect for that composition and makes it look almost painterly

[@OmarNassar1000]

i took the pic of the girl at the protest 28:50 , just for context, it wasn’t set up at all, i got the picture on accident and really liked it personally. appreciate the feedback!

[@gillpeakperformance4945]

They're all beautiful, but #2 with the jets stands out to me as the best of the best. Truly a work of art

[@TyShotMe]

That was Nipsey on the mic RIP ❤️🙏🏾

[@TonyMedinaVlogs]

RIP NIP

[@IsaacInfurneaux]

Thanks for checking out my shot man. That image was shared by Drake in response to Nipsey’s passing and went viral across the globe.

[@DayHunch]

@@IsaacInfurneaux 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@INSULINRAGE]

28:43 whyd you skip me? Roast that bear after the nude lady rant 😂

[@nickwrotenphotography879]

haha

[@danielschmaderer]

The bear was a nice shot.

[@sabinebean6453]

#4 Hands down!!! It captures the magic of the Northern Lights in the most accurate AND best way! Love it!

[@CameraStudio]

I would really like if you had a theme for these episodes. For example landscape, portrait, architecture, etc. That could help to have a better comparison between a "good" and "bad" picture.

[@MrLittelmerciles]

5 of the girl on the steps is definitely my favorite. I feel like everything is right with it and if I took that shot that I wouldn't have asked for anything more

[@MikeMena]

VOTE #1

[@Lens_Adventures]

Thank you for you kind comments on my photo (39:05) and I am really happy with how you reacted :D

[@SuperScottdaniel]

The Jared giveth, and the Jerad taketh away ;-) Thanks for the shout-out!!!

[@paulmcmahonphotography1020]

For me, photo 1 was outstanding. I told a story of that child in the setting/world, it told us something about his emotion or feeling in the moment, perhaps being nervous just peeking out from behind the door to have a look. It had a great crop/framing and technically accurate also

[@USPSA77]

Thanks Jared, I submitted the picture of the Miami Dade Fire Rescue helicopter, dropping the firefighter. Took your advice...and absolutely FANTASTIC!! Got the rotor blur....thank you!!!!

[@KimoPollock]

Maybe more blur, but I think if you could have completely stopped to rotor completely, that would be tits, but real hard photo to do.

[@mattybass]

People complaining that the 'story is missing' behind some of their photos... isn't the photo supposed to tell the story without words? Isn't that sort of the whole point of a good photograph?

[@daniellenicoleshepherd5181]

Number 6 is my favorite. It has a story. I enjoy world-building and attention to detail in any art form for me: images, fashion, film, poetry- there just needs to be more, or I get bored. but number 6 held my attention the longest.

[@AnthonyGugliotta]

1 for the Story 2 for the Timing 7 for the Effort and Location

[@aquilinodeb]

I love number 4...The Norther Lights it's just amazing how he captured it, it's the perfect...Something id always love to go see and witness in person

[@aquilinodeb]

Northern * sorry NY fat fingers 😂

[@kappye7337]

I submitted the fox you thought was shot at sunset but was actually sunrise. Started taking pics over the pandemic.

[@Foxintox]

5 and 6 are my favorites , I just love pictures in which you can uncover some hidden details and subtilities in the composition .

[@ThatDudeWithTheCube]

I think #1 is the best ;)

[@andrewmontague9682]

5 minutes into a video and Jared hasn't applied Skittles to anything?!? What is going on?? 5:11 Nope there it is... 😂

[@thepauldineen]

5 Woman, dog, building (library?). Classic. Looks like everything included and their locations were intentional. Balanced. Looks like it was slowly and deliberately painted. The opposite of a quick snapshot or of a bit of timing luck when doing spray and pray. Many other good photos here, but this is the one that I want to look over for much longer.

[@cac2244]

5, the girl and dog in stairs... only because you discarded the cats...best for me.

[@rrennnerr]

44:26 I thought that image in the thumbnail look familiar! Scioto mile in Columbus, Ohio.

[@rudyrodriguezjr.]

1 and 5... a tie! 1) the boy and the door 5) The dog and girl reading. Thanks for showing mine!!! ( the hair cut )

[@ldefranchi]

5! all the way! love these videos Jared, keep them coming! thanks!

[@nivedmurali8523]

I love the kid looking from behind the door and the girl reading book, one of them, great work

[@user-pe8ir4iy1e]

yup me too. exactly those 2

[@sirBumpyCase]

I would like to personally shout out the guy who submitted the pier with the lighthouse. I did some math and the exact photo location was 43.056111°N, 86.249722°W. Likely taken in march when the water levels in lake Michigan are the lowest. I instantly recognized the Grand Haven Lighthouse because I lived only 4 miles from it. What a small world.

[@auitynagabhooshanam3460]

I never would've understand photography if I haven't seen this video. It's just changed my perspective. Thanks:)

[@pbergn]

7 - The boy behind the broken door. It is compositional, sharp, color is correct and tells the story.

[@deanharvey972]

They're all good, TOP 3...1. The steps and columns grabs ya, 2. Boy peeking around the door, and 3. Gorilla...Heck, I liked them all!

[@TheJubess]

5. But that's from the pics you chose. You've skipped by some that I would like to look a little longer at, because there were so many pretty ones. Makes you wanna go out and shoot. It's 1:30 am though

[@reggydofe]

Jared just made me buy the Sigma art 85mm with his comment about samyang lenses, my brain didnt need to hear you vocalise what its been thinking for a long time. Thanks amazon 6 month interest free...

[@shinma989]

Lol, I can relate

[@00Skyfox]

My favorite is the photo of the fox at sunrise. Sure, I may be a little biased because that was an adorable fox, but the colors and composition were gorgeous.

[@DRIVECLUBistimelessPS4]

well looking at your name and avatar, no surprise :D

[@danivar86]

I like 5 the most but 6 and 7 also stand out to me. Great selections and suggested edits in this video.

[@stevend5508]

number 5 for me, The steps and the columns

[@Double2KK]

Nu. 4 was my favorite, but 1, 5 and 6 were very strong favorites. I got the feeling that Jared's favorite photo was number 6.

[@hossmacian]

I submitted the Civil War soldiers. You’re right, the black and white hits better, but I still like the color but it’s all good. You liked it. You really liked it. I feel all Sally Field right now 😂

[@Double2KK]

Andy, your photo was a Top 5 favorite of mine but only in black and white.

[@techhead976]

Bummed out my photo got clicked over because the one before it was getting too long of a critique… 😒

[@aaron_barreiro]

My favorite was the one with dog/guy in between the pillars!

[@MonstersSeeMeToo]

5!!! Girl with dog in the archway with the sunbeam!

[@allencrider]

I just love looking at photographs.

[@nature_body_adventure]

Number 5 and 6 are my favourites. I would go with 5 this time.

[@chrishart8251]

Thanks for picking my aurora photo! Great video!

[@DanuteP]

Thought I recognized your name. 😂

[@davidclark1906]

Thanks for the feedback! I appreciate it.

[@Danieljmjones]

Thank you for picking my cityscape photo. I personally like 4!

[@joshuaprietophoto]

liked after you sang "you've got another thing coming"

[@bluewaterbuddy]

Your videos are very good. I have no idea what kind of drugs that you are on or which drugs you have quit. But I want to start using the drugs you use and stop using the drugs you have quit!

[@howardshubs7157]

I really liked the snowy mountains. My image of the woman JUST made it to the "semi-finals" but then got cut from the list. I can live with that since I see what it was competing against.

[@robjphotos]

I like the little boy peaking around the door. I was too late submitting my photo. The one I was going to submit had a watermark and I knew you'd frown at that.

[@pattyprior2171]

#1 & #5 - love them both can't choose

[@cruztheblueoceanjdog]

The boy behind the door, my personal favorite

[@yanncadic9581]

5 !!! it Blows my mind !! Congrats, there were many nice pictures.

[@NoBodyKnowsWhoIAm]

6, hands down. It doesn't just draws you in, it also tells a story using colors, lightning, composition....it's just eh best of the 7 for me.

[@hramakrishnaiah413]

A little Boy peeping by Ryan Little is the winner for me.

[@shutteredmoments9300]

Cat by the car was my favourite.

[@MasterColeX2]

Lol I like how your like don't get up set if I skip. While on mine. But then called it beautiful a second later. Made my day. Also the camera and specs on the photo are Canon rebel t7 with a 75-300mm at 300mm f5.6 1/125 iso 200. If anyone is wondering.

[@TheHawaiianc]

( @45:51 ) I'll do it in order 1,5,2,7,4,6.. I'm not to keen on b&w's because you want show as raw of image as possible and color part of that if has be B&W then there's something off and you trying get rid of it by going B&W that's why... oh Jared I think people using auto in light room I notice exposer tad strong in Lr also I don't like how they crank up the shadows and lower highlights I mean why? If you want bring up shadows bring up through highlight it has almost same affect it just your more in control of light source.. if it still to dark just bring up shadows after playing with highlights and exposer. Reason you bring out the detail that shadow trying make it pop like kids face and feet in photo one..

[@carteranderson5537]

I have to go with 4, the magic of the Northern Lights gets me every time. While many of those capture your attention, I feel that the Aurora Borealis is the one where I would find myself in front of as if I was imagining being there. Good job to everyone 👍

[@CrustyBiker]

I love number 3, it's the one I would most like as a picture on my wall, and it's also a picture anyone could take if they were passing by at that particular time of day, most of the other stunning ones grab a lot points from location or stunning natural occurrences 🤷‍♂️

[@terrylstarks]

I’d say #5 was the winner, but you are right, they all were great images!!! Thanks

[@akravats94]

If I skip yours don’t get upset literally the moment your photo comes up 😭

[@followingthefoglemans]

I think 1 and 5 are spot on. I would pick 1 because It is more my style.

[@jeffrielley920]

Number 1 wins it for me. The snowy mountains photo is fine, but it's too busy at the bottom.

[@ElleryHiggins]

Hey, that's Columbus, OH shot from Main St. Bridge at 18:00 !! I've taken that shot, but at night! :)

[@cayden7725]

The R5 footage mixed in with 720p webcam is too hilarious 💀

[@heshamalshowaikh6420]

1 and 6 are my favorites but number no. 6 has to be the winner here

[@highlandmary33]

Spot on! Toss the Artsy McFartsies out of judging!

[@darrylnickles6091]

I liked the green aurora, and the Art Museum photos.

[@PzaLza]

1 is incredible

[@michaelodonnell1371]

The child behind the door is my favorite

[@jacklydon]

I like your instinct for composition.

[@Gmenpg]

I rarely ever agree with Jared’s edits lol

[@michaelmonti362]

This was such an informative video. Hope this can be a monthly occurrence! Really enjoyed watching you process all these phots and share your thoughts!

[@marcmillah]

Man, tough call - gotta go with 5 (Steps and columns). Love the light and composition.

[@Fifthimagez]

I’ll have to watch this after work

[@mclaughkevin]

The Dan Maxon photo at 10:48 is at Dead Horse Canyon State Park in Utah.

[@chrisathanasiadisphoto]

#5 but in black and white and cropped to take the right side of the photo out and only show columns.

[@Danieljmjones]

Ha also noticed my pic got used for the thumbnail, thank you!

[@michapiotrstankiewicz1504]

Good to see my favourite of your content back! Looking forward for next video.

[@DevtenAAT]

#4 the stunning Aurora

[@rabrhee]

5 for me by a mile, it hit me every time you flicked past it. 1 for second place.

[@Valleography]

Shoot i knew my photo didnt upload and didn't want to try again for fear of it getting deleted for repeated uploads. Next time :-) Thanks for allowing us to submit photos and get a quick critique. Always good to see what others are doing and how we can get better. thanks!

[@Rayormysden]

Mine too😄

[@jmp622]

Photo 1 is my vote for winner

[@corycampbell5160]

I wasn’t sure what shot to send, but the “SQUIRREL!!” feedback is about what I expected. Lol.

[@davidtharp7921]

The latest update to Lightroom CC made it super easy to install presets. Click the plus (+) button next to the presets folder in Lightroom while in the develop module. Next, find the folder names FroPresets either on your desktop or in your downloads folder and select all the presets. Once installed, completely close out of Lightroom and then reopen it and the presets should all be there as long as you’re on a RAW file. I just purchased this program what happened open file I got five files is Files the packages one of you can't read second one is the readme file there is no + in the bundle I just purchased what's going on I am not happy

[@jermynmiranda2017]

I’ll get your attention one day with my photo. Thanks for reviewing

[@JohnStremble]

All fantastic shots, but I think #7 is my favourite of the bunch!

[@amandak7777]

Number 5 for me is the winner, love the composition
