venice is for street photography

[@briannielsen727]

Beautiful - the sound design is lovely relaxed and immersive to me

[@o0YumRamen0o]

I'd like to see this format of street videography and stills from all your trips to Europe and Japan, and more. Love it

[@Latinocr]

Roman, I love your channel sooo much. I've seen so many long-ass videos with maybe 5 photos in them. You seem to have found just the right balance. No annoying videos about photography without photos, but no video-slideshows either. This video is the perfect example. A video where the photographer doesn't try to influence how the photos are received by chattering incessantly due to his insecurities as a visual artist as if his tongue is going to give his photos a gravitas his skill couldn't. You are not a photographer you are a rebel and a legend. Keep up the good work.

[@CharlesDunkley]

My favorite video of yours to date. Thank you for beginning to take us around Venice. I'm looking forward to the next installment.

[@Chris-qy3dp]

I love everything about this video. The editing, the photos the music. Thank you.

[@darrenleigh201]

Agreed👍🏼

[@eddielee5874]

Love your photography, Roman, especially the composition of your photos. Very inspirational.

[@katelevesque]

So, so good!

[@carbonejack]

Great video. Beautiful images.

[@robbieallcock]

Absolute class this👌 Loved everything about it.

[@TL-sl5hr]

Love these type of videos! Hope to see more of this format.

[@TheOriginalAndrewLaverick]

I really enjoyed the vibe and content of this video. Some great compositions.

[@victorcarmelo8606]

This was so enjoyable and brought back the several visits I had in this enchanting place. For such a colourful city, monochrome can be so special here, thanks for sharing.

[@daviddornblaser4512]

Very Nice! Thank you.

[@illkoncept]

Love this style of video! Great work Roman.

[@jonathanpaul7246]

Two things I personally took away from this video: I need to start 'respecting' video more. The attention you place on composing your video snippets into "moving pictures" has me realizing maybe I COULD get behind hybridizing my approach more, especially when documenting my travels. And secondly, and this didn't hit me until around 2/3s of the way through this video, you were in Venice for 30 DAYS! I need to give myself some more leeway when I'm frustrated about coming away with maybe only 1 picture I'm happy with after a weekend trip. Also, I just finished my first read-through of your book. Great stuff, exactly what I was hoping for from my purchase.

[@johndoherty1336]

felt very much like a holiday/tourist video which worked well, if I remember correctly this is where you are moving towards, enjoyable and promoted the area very well

[@don7117]

What a wonderful video. A masterclass in composition, use of light, post processing. Heading to Europe next month and this is a great inspiration.

[@johnvr1]

Nice to see more of Venice than the touristic parts.

[@kalistratov_photos]

Thank you for the video! I think the major challenges in Venice are 1. Crowds or tourists 2. Lack of local life (except for the outskirts) 3. Limited space BUT these are also the advantages in good hands

[@luismartins3262]

Easily one of your better videos. Glad to see you didn't shy away from using B&W at times, in a place that screams color. I am not a regular here on YT videos, but would like to see Tokyo (especially) in this same format. Better yet, any place you go to for an extended period of time, although I understand that this would probably eat up a lot of your time. Liked and subscribed.

[@elwick_photo]

Think Venice is my favourite place in europe, no cars, no bikes no scooters only walkers, its such a weird change. Its weirdly peaceful. The light just lands perfectly down the narrow streets and the whole place is beautiful, whether its flooded, full of tourists or a dark abandoned alley. I couldve spent months wandering around. Lovely work, really takes me back.

[@vermis8344]

It might sound superficial, but I needed this after staring out the window at a drizzly, greyer-than-the-usual-grey UK day!

[@chrisjwright_]

Love this style, great work Roman! It's videos like this that inspired me to create my recent Porto video.

[@irutgers]

I love love Venice! So many opportunities. ❤ your video

[@snapsbyfox]

Thanks!!

[@williama-d6]

the video tells a bit of a story, I like the way you did it

[@sanjayhegde3998]

Brilliant! What lens was used to capture the photos in the first 2 minutes?

[@alrozanski8352]

Roman, superb video. I have learned a lot from you regarding street photography. Keep up the good work. you sure go to some beautiful places.

[@Victorbattaglia_music]

Yes!! I’m from a town close to Venice and YES Venice is definitely for street photography ❤

[@VickyAllum]

Love this video Roman and the way you have captured everyday life in the back streets and canals of Venice ,love the photos you have shot too.

[@ValentinaOtoniRibeiro]

Beautiful work as always! congrats❤

[@adunford2664]

Yes it’s a great place to photograph. Full of character.

[@michael2968]

im in venice in febraury for carnevale, can't wait, it has been 10 years since last visit!

[@willsmc10]

Man, this took me right back to college… I was lucky enough to study abroad in Venezia on 3 separate trips from 2008-10 🇮🇹🍝🍕

[@alexandergiesser]

I was literally just there a month ago and went to the same places off the beaten path. It was so weird to see "normal" life in such a dense city full of tourists. Great job!

[@davidforsdike27]

Love Venice… great video of a lovely city… what lenses did you use? 👍🏻

[@willardkennedy6021]

Wow, just wow!!!

[@rickcooper248]

Very nice piece of work.

[@nerdisthenew]

Fantastic work. 🎉

[@mikefoster6018]

I don't know about Roman foxes, but I know they did invent aqua-ducks! But yeah, great videos. Cool stuff. And cool name!

[@heinekhalwin8735]

This is basically a video zine ! Love it :D

[@danidero]

...in love of your photography ! Ehat lens did you used here ? I saw only 40 mm , but what brand ?

[@Perski2844]

Great vlog and photos. Some of them are a bit like Saul Leiter style. Thx :)

[@geneboyd523]

Like them a lot

[@rraschka2112]

Just spent 7 hours doing fall yardwork, pondering life decisions.... This video hit at just the right time. Thank you.

[@mallingwater984]

Just got back from Venice last week, weather not as good as yours (when did you go?) Been twice this year and love it, will be going again next year and taking many photos with Leica Q3 and M10 (I did have Fuji,s) Venice is great away from the crowds and very easy to get lost in Oh and the food and wine are pretty good too,love it. I’d love to spend 30 days in Venice but I don’t have enough sd cards. Keep up the great videos.

[@therealbonj]

Get a seagate backup plus ssd 😅

[@ChrisBrogan]

0:32 Why do we love the things we do? I also would've shot that scuffed old phone box 1:02 Her foot up makes that shot PERFECT and storytelling-ish. (That's not a word, Roman) 1:27 One towel. But still? We chase it. 3:56 Uh, a bit abrupt. But hey. Made me pay attention. 4:39 Looking up. Nice. (I'll stop doing this, but loved it all). Roman, do you feel that making these short films is AS much a part of you now as the snaps themselves? One more, loved 17:42

[@snapsbyfox]

thanks! I’m not sure tbh… im very much a photo first person still

[@ChrisBrogan]

@@snapsbyfox - I love your photos, so that's not the thing. I just was thinking, "You sure tell a good story these days."

[@ChasingBarrels]

Masterful video. The photos are 🔥 more of the same please :)

[@mikkelguy]

Roman, can you please explain why the option to program custom settings was removed from the X-H2S? I previously had the XT5, where I could quickly switch between film simulations using the left pad, which was really convenient. However, this isn't possible with the X-H2S due to the seven custom dials. Why not keep both options? It feels counterintuitive, especially for a hybrid camera that is designed for both photography and videography. For me, three of those dials are dedicated to video, which leaves me with only four options for film simulations. Do you have any clever tricks for managing this? :D

[@geneboyd523]

Stills the best
