this is absolutely the best KZbin channel about photography. In my whole life I haven't learned as much as watching your Alex videos

[@kimpark6944]

Amen, Alex has a great way of teaching

[@kearneyjnbaptiste1579]

I've never once had a reason to regret subscribing to this channel, I pray u live forever

[@danieldarks3721]

These are a joy to watch and I always get something to add to my photography store. Because you break the subject of photography into looking at just 1 aspect it helps me take in far more than a longer video covering everything all at once. Please keep doing these.

This channal's a gold mine holy sh*t, really bridged a lot of gaps from what i learned from art school.

[@ThePhotographicEye]

Awesome, thank you

[@rajbhasin3779]

Thanks for opening our vision.

[@SOLIDSNAKE.]

I love how you add the year it was taken

[@bazanderson8283]

This is really inspiring, showing an alternative perspective and other photographers that are new to me, me who has of late been in an uninspired hole I was struggling to get out of, this is a welcome "spark" of motivation. Thanks for this 🙏

[@ubeauty100]

Yes . You have confirmed so much for me. Mood Re emotion is the connection to our souls. Thank you once again brilliant

[@patienttreater]

It's great to have a photography channel im YT that deals with the purest form of the art instead of gear porn.

[@markgoostree6334]

Yes. Talk about the photograph. The why, and not the gear. We needed this kind of perspective ... or at least I did.

[@tedbrown7908]

Alex, that was a great video on the subject of Mood. I went out with an old 18-55mm lens that I've had for a dozen years. My goal was for B+W photo's. It made me look at the mood of the subject in a minimal type of way. I find most of my photo's are filled with to much of everything but the main subject. I need to be more focused on a controlled isolation of photography.

[@AK-hk2pd]

Another candidate for the kitbag of tips, thank you 😊

[@martinlawrence8427]

Great video Alex…that feels like a lightbulb moment for me!

[@jameslee2736]

Alex, Really like your videos but I have one request ... please use more of your portrait phones to convey your messages. I think they are great and always help me understand what you are saying.

[@jpvvandermerwe87]

Another stellar clip. Thank you very much - keep 'em coming.

[@xavierserranomusic]

Wow! So inspiring! Thanks once again for your videos.

[@ManyDoors777]

What a great video. Thank you for this!

[@ThePhotographicEye]

Thanks for watching

[@fredhannum4015]

I was watching you're videos and remembered a video that affected me deeply. The video was like a great B/W photo, I don't know how to link but please search for "Ukrainian female fighter no helmet, no armor, no problem" and see the mood, the slo-mo and the music that creates a truly memorable image. I first saw this a long time ago and it stuck with me but when I searched for it , I first found the original footage ( normal speed,no music) . You can find both but my question is how to create that emotion and memory in a photo, without video or sound ?

[@anton0000001]

Thank you Alex. I really enjoyed that

[@iaincphotography6051]

Another interesting chat Alex, good to see some shots from Pete Turner. The night shots taken on the street by Eren Sarigul are a good example of capturing mood with colour also.

[@tduke91]

I must confess I never think about Mood or other emotions when I am out and about but will take you advice on board next time I am out 😀

[@ThePhotographicEye]

Give it a try,

[@croitor2009]

Arigatonee Senseiii!!!

[@aes53]

A great video Alex, tying together lessons from Pete Turner to Desiree Dolron to Alex Webb with a stop at Ralph Gibson and Duane Michaels is a bit of a tour de force. You’re striking a pose😁

[@BalloonInTheBalloon]

This is a wonderful channel.

[@johnclay7644]

3 useful steps.

Thank you. All the best. 👍📷😎

[@charithsenanayake]

Great. Check out the photographs of Lionel Wendt, a Sri Lankan artist.

[@abadjoseph]

Thanks for the content! Any chance for a link to the "Squint Method" you mentioned?

[@veivoli]

@Joseph Abad Ah, I think he was pointing to the card that links to his video on this. Or you could go to his channel and look through his videos. Kids these days... 🙂

[@abadjoseph]

@@veivoli Thanks?

[@aes53]

Thanks!

[@ThePhotographicEye]

Thank you!

[@jalalzahrphoto]

I love your videos. They are fantastic and I am learning a lot! Thank you! But you need to address the actual video/audio quality. It’s difficult to hear you and your video can surely be improved.

[@jhoang861]

i’m always looking for shadows. shadow is my bestfriend.

[@alunrees3056]

I find it so hard to define how looking at a photo makes me feel, my mind simply accepts it’s just an image of something that exists somewhere else. Perhaps if I’m broken some how.

[@Goat.Herder]

I agree. Sometimes a scene might make me briefly reminisce about something similar from a past experience but the majority of the time I see it as just an image with shapes.

[@peterreber7671]

I think it is hard because we assume that the photographer had such an intention to begin with and we almost uniformly should be able to deduce what it was. The question should not be 'what did the creator put into this' but 'what can I, what do I put into this' and that can be unique and totally different from what the photographer intended. If I can put myself into the process in that way then I am never broken, I am always whole and complete.

[@alunrees3056]

@@peterreber7671 that’s a fair way to think about it. It is entirely subjective.

[@peterreber7671]

@@alunrees3056 I think of it a little like a Rohrschach test with more world related images. 🙂

[@alunrees3056]

Thanks @@peterreber7671 . I’ll give that a go. I’m so used to trying to document specific details with my work, I forget there is a means to convey a story.

[@donnlowel2387]

There’s only one thing you can do this is, if you can’t feel the mood in your photos no one will.

[@nanshingteo6304]

These days, I believe, many people just end up white-balancing away any sense of mood in the quest for "accurate colours"...

[@mmlips]

I tend to do that myself

[@nanshingteo6304]

@@mmlips Me too, to be perfectly honest. I can't help myself 😂

[@hrorm]

Brilliant video. I loved all the photos. Thanks for teaching us stuff :)

[@RRRCCCDDD]

Love your content but I feel you need to change your microphone. Your voice sounds a bit muffled

[@ChrisW.Fuji_Canon]

🙏😍😍🙏

[@santiagoinfante8458]

I hope it didn't explode

[@glen-draketoolworks7186]

I was fine until you asked me to do three things at once, listen to your voice, listen to your music, and look at photographs,...............oh.......and feel something while I play rocks-paper-scissors.
