Charlie Waite - Behind the Photograph

[@boatman222345]

Phenomenal images and insightful provoking commentary. Totally enjoyable experience!

[@GilKreslavsky]

It is so refreshing to listen to someone who looks at photography in terms of artistic and emotional response, rather than gear and editing .

[@michaelwoof823]

The greatest speech about photography ever made! Well done Charlie!

[@Peter_Reed_Photography]

Fantastic presentation and after so many years his enthusiasm for photography remains undiminished. Also fully agree with his comments on needing beauty in photography.

[@crowtheri]

Aspirational and a must-see conversation for photographers. Grey hair in the room and casting back to Adams and other forefathers of photography rewards us with a product like this. Fabulous presentation / Q&A. Only my humble opinion, however, we need to hear more from these gentlemen (and ladies), so they share these invaluable physical, emotional and environmental experiences with us and we can absorb and learn to begin shaping our own mental and tehcnical abilities. Awesome!

[@ML-rm3vk]

Ps.your lecture made me smile and made me pick up my analog devices .all the best charly

[@KimberlyGJones]

Absolutely wonderful! As fine as anything I've ever heard in an academic setting.

[@AnotherLisa]

Absolutely loved this man’s energy and work

[@fafnorcal]

I’ve practiced landscape photography for 15 years now and read voraciously about the practice. I have never seen a more cogent manifesto. Thank you Charlie Waite!

[@bossofthemoss450]

Our art form articulated in words that I can only dream of achieving. I hope I can produce at least one image some day that elicits such emotion in the observer(s). Two great icons. Thank you both. 👏👏👏

[@davidmcculloch8490]

I heard Charlie live in Preston a few years ago on this lecture your. Inspirational, is my response in a single word. His patience, preparation and thought behind the image was enlightening. His philosophy of producing an image has endured in my mind and refined my approach to the craft. Charlie is perhaps our greatest ambassador of landscape photography as an art.

[@johanliebenberg6170]

What a great orator! Such a joy to listen to. And such passion for photography! Loved listening to you Charlie - thank you!

[@Batteristafoto]

What an incredibly beautiful talk! Man thank you for this guys!

[@deltafit]

So inspiring. Especially in this day and age where every man and his dog has started to do photography vlogs. Nice to hear from someone like Charlie, and Joe with so much knowledge and experience.

[@Bazzo61]

Every landscape photographer should watch this. Brilliant insight into landscape photography from the great Charlie Waite.

[@williambolton5679]

I bought that Kertesz postcard in Manhattan some decades ago, selecting it from many in a postcard shop. It is an extraordinary image. Such wonderful light!

[@GJSsongsmith]

Fabulous talk Charlie . Really struck a chord with me . It’s how I feel when I’m out in nature trying to capture a special moment . Thank you 🙏

[@JasonRJones]

Enjoyed Charlie Waite immensely, tremendous spirit and passion!

[@andy65ify]

Thank you for sharing this fantastic insight into Mr Charlie Waites beautifully creative thought process, he is a tremendously talented man and immensely inspirational. A joy to listen to.

[@Turbosmurfen73]

Thanks for making these talks available to us foreigners! And what a god talker he is, Mr Waite. I wish I could put the words to photography like hem!

[@markmcmullan3351]

Not only a master photographer but orator also . I seen this talk a few years back and doesn't loose any of it's majic .

[@ML-rm3vk]

Sir thank you brilliant lecture on photography and life.your lecture was like hearing Mr Adams again.a yank and a fan cheers!!!

[@Mont_Blanc_Photography]

What a joy to listen to your talk Charlie and lovely to hear your thoughts and ideas, shared with such humility.

[@RTan-cf7nf]

Thanks Charlie! I remember loving Ansel Adams 15 years ago although almost none of my age group knows him. Now listening to you talking about him makes me remember that love again for that great artist.

[@vproven]

Outstanding presentation. Thank you ever so much.

[@carlreid4161]

Really enjoyed seeing your photography Charlie but most of all your enthusiasm, passion, inspiration calmness and your descriptive language of the landscape will remain with me as I take to the field. Thank you.

[@jameschafe2599]

Awesome work Charlie! "My little Dogies" shows how important it is to be in the right place at the right time, and how composition can be even more important than sharpness.

[@rogerwalton8160]

A real treat for the eye and ear. I've watched this several times and will no doubt watch it again - a masterclass in presentation.

[@otavioleitefotografia]

What a lovely presentation! That's a real photographer!

Inspirational and so so passionate about the craft and art of photography

[@Biscuit761YT]

Wonderful talk, and I am glad to see that I share something with such a great photographer, my office is a mess too ...

[@michelslangen6633]

Really inspiring, thank you for sharing, great images and love the energy and devotion

[@bradholbrooks]

It's nice to hear someone talking about photography instead of a sales pitch.

[@boxlock2009]

I love the square format with certain subjects. Thanks for reinforcing that esthetic!

[@TheDavcoll]

The most articulate talk I have ever heard.

[@1spitfirepilot]

Great presentation, great images, humane, kind and talented photographer.

[@miltonpics]

Wonderful presentation, really enjoyable. Thank you Charlie.

[@armco24244]

A most excellent insight into landscape photography and what should guide us in our pursuit of beauty

[@johnscratchley3288]

Wonderful presentation, thank you so much.

[@izzyleicanut9190]

Absolutely priceless

[@JohnCurgenven]

An inspiring insight once again, thank you Charlie.

[@mitymous1]

Fantastic presentation, and incredible images!

[@christophermason7735]

That was so interesting 😊

[@thomaspopple2291]

This is an amazing presentation filled with gravitas. Thank you!

[@markharris5771]

A brilliant presentation, who could complain about Charlie Waite going over time? Fancy being interviewed by the photographer who is only second to Michael Kenna in British landscape photographers.

[@robertmyers4390]

What an amazing man,,, love him to bits! 😎

[@jpdj2715]

what a digital response, or should I say binary? BTW, do you know the photo sites in sensors are analog?

[@diba4645]

So great!

[@bcrigg9388]

Im not British, but must say “Brilliant”!

[@dryce2346]

Thanks. This made me smile.

[@rickreyn9242]

I'd almost rather hear Charlie talk than look at his images!

[@justinbernard9129]

The man is such an eloquent speaker.

[@ivanosrin2126]

Wonderful presentation

[@jameswalsh9579]

Better than anything on TV !

[@on_landscape]

He's a great public speaker, as well as a master photographer.

[@OscarNtege]

Awesome video,definitely giving me thoughts for my next photography tutorial and photoshoot!👌

[@kiesemedia433]

i loved seeing this video. keep going ✌

[@roseatkinson1990]

Wonderful !

[@TasKarp]

Splendid!!!

[@footsy420]

fantastic presentation. I feel like I've got a good proportion of the technical skills i need but I need this kind of inspiration. I shy away from landscapes because they are hard but a lot of the lessons here apply to many types of photography.

[@adamzimmerman9459]

What an amazing man

[@billymckee01]

Fabulous speaker and lovely guy in real life.

[@fotofillholland]

Thank you.

[@puma0065]

[@BjarteKFrnsdal]

Brilliant!!!

[@plantherain]

Charlie today you are the unintended ‘007 laugh of my life’..

[@neilcole3406]

A true artist!

[@Jeff-jg7jh]

It will take a week for me to watch this.

[@Stone1108]

One word 'Beauty'.

[@Bangus56]

Is this the brother of John Cleese? Good presentation.

[@josephsintum1292]

I wonder what Charlie Waite thinks about mid journey, dall-e 2 and Stable Diffusion, AI generated or modified images

[@stuartbaines2843]

Beautyfully 👌and a Gentleman as well 😀

[@stevenmuncy491]

Sorry I didn't find this sooner.

[@257squadron]

Charlie, start bottling this enthusiasm and selling it!

[@Roar.]

I photographed that same house in Tuscany (58:28)... not the same result, I have to say. :)

Nappalm.. I was thinking do you mean Napalm lol

[@sofiad9775]

I'm not even a photographer......

[@godofhope]

I have his book: „The making of landscape photographs“. You should read it :) It’s funny: on almost every photograph he moans: look at this or look at that; don’t do this! LOL 😂 It could have been done better.... the sheep didn’t stay the way they should ... LOL

[@regannealephotography]

Am I watching the King of England?

[@dadasesa4108]

Commissioned...are you a spy?

[@ddolde]

I want to see pictures not listen to philosophy

[@largeformatlandscape]

Go to his website then

[@schandler52]

Speaker is enthusiastic, passionate and knowledgeable. Images are classic and impactful. HOWEVER, the speaker rambles on, after awhile becomes hypnotic. It took 15 mins just to show the first image. This presentation could have been delivered in 15-20 mins with a seasoned lecturer. Unfortunately I cannot recommend this to others Sorry

[@ML-rm3vk]

Ps.your lecture made me smile and made me pick up my analog devices .all the best charly

[@danfrancis7196]

Wonderful!
