Great video! Always love watching your techniques and shots.

[@joeredski]

Thank you very much 👍

[@LittleMissIssues]

Heyyy there Joe!! What a great video you have shared! Not only do I always love your photos and locations, but your ideas and techniques, too! I love all of these and do try to keep these in mind when out and about shooting! I have always loved wild and extreme angles, framing subjects and reflections! I am going to watch this again just to pay close attention to all!! 😊 Best wishes and look forward to your next video!!

[@joeredski]

Thank you very much for your support. I’m glad I have inspired you to get out there and take some shots. All the best. 👍

[@TheSgyro]

Very helpful video.. And beautiful examples.. The framing and extreme angles were my favourites 😁

[@joeredski]

Thank you very much. I really appreciate that. I love those techniques too 😁

[@kjeeb]

Fantastic video! I've learned so much from this. Gonna try and apply these techniques next time I'm shooting!

[@joeredski]

I’m so glad to hear that. Thank you very much and enjoy 👍

[@TCMx3]

I was already thinking the video was pretty good, but I appreciate near the end spending more time on specific images. While I think your examples fit really well and didn't _need_ explanation, it's still nice to have a second to digest and hear you talk about the photographs you made. I'd encourage you to keep talking about the photos themselves, as you make more videos. Given your excellent choice of examples, I'd expect longer discussions to be quite interesting.

[@joeredski]

Thank you very much for your positive and thoughtful feedback. I will keep that it mind for future videos. I appreciate it 👍

[@mrowen5055]

Great content and advice! 🙏

[@joeredski]

Glad it was helpful! Thank you 🙏

[@ajblitzstein7628]

Superb video Joe! Excellent inspiring thoughts…lots of ideas here. Perhaps the user could pick on a favourite theme and try each one at a time per day!

[@joeredski]

Thank you very much for that. That’s the idea. Just take one idea and run with it. I appreciate that feedback man 👍

[@theslowwalkers]

All good ideas to have in mind when you go out and your images demonstrate them all really well.

[@joeredski]

Thank you very much 🙏

[@perrylane]

I am going share this video with some friends from an old camera club that die during the movie pandemic. I love your grading on both images and video . I don't think anyone has explained this elements better .I use them myself but it's always great to be reminded of them again in word and good examples. I don't think I had ever formally heard of juxtaposition but it is clear to me now. Thank you.

[@joeredski]

Thank you very much. I really that feedback. I’m glad that you got something out often the video 🙏

[@julianebel9106]

Great video! It’s really helpful that you always let us know your settings used for the shots, helps me out a lot. Keep it up 😊

[@joeredski]

Thank you very much. I really appreciate that kind of feedback and I’m glad I could help. 👍

[@wearetrackclub]

Great tips, Joe! Really nice examples. Feeling inspired 👏

[@joeredski]

That’s great to hear man. Thank you very much 🙏

[@TGAAL-sx9rm]

stumbled across this page, really helpful and I subscribed so I can learn more, great video

[@joeredski]

Awesome, thank you!🙏

[@steverenard55]

Great ideas - thank you - and some very impressive images.

[@joeredski]

Many thanks!

[@rcsukor]

Great video! Thanks!

[@joeredski]

Thank you 🙏

[@lawrencelunsford6028]

Hello Joe! Great video, awesome images. I've recently started to explore street photography and I will surely borrow some of your ideas the next time I go out. My ancestors came from your part of the world to the US in 1649. My ancestor was Sir Thomas Lunsford and I believe that Lunsford's Cross is in East Sussex and some of my other ancestors may have come from there also. I've only watched a few of your videos, but I'm going to subscribe to see what else you're doing. Thanks for the content and thanks for not letting whatever disability that you have get in the way of what you want to do. Inspirational. :)

[@joeredski]

Thank you very much my friend. I really appreciate the positive feedback. That’s really interesting about your ancestry. Amazing that you know about your family from way back in the 17th Century. I wish I knew that much about mine. Take care man 👍

[@danwoodliefphotography871]

Good tips and enjoyable video. Brighton is a fun place to shoot.

[@joeredski]

Thanks very much. I’m glad that you enjoyed it.. Brighton really is great for photography.

[@jackbeltane]

Love your work

[@joeredski]

Thank you very much.

[@JayMacroPhotos]

Love your photos

[@joeredski]

Thank you very much.

[@juliogon1000]

Juxtaposition would be my favorite.

[@joeredski]

Me too. Thank you.

[@samtan4729]

I would recommend checking out works by Alex Webb and other greats, dissect them and be inspired by them.

[@joeredski]

Thanks. I have one of his books here. He is fantastic.

[@sunnymas2656]

Thank you, for your Video school, how to advance photography to Artwork. (liked + subscribed.) I am a beginner or so called rookie. My ideas: To shoot legs and feet only, in the cities. By photo or video. So the viewer can imagine, how these persons looks. And I want to shoot roads. But fresh build and painted = totally new. But not open to public traffic. Just before it. I have back pain daily. And cannot walk long distances. So I drive with my electric scooter. And they are allowed here in germany, but special rules and laws. I have also one, with a bicycle seat.

[@keef78]

Always showing me some great ideas and helping me get excited about photography again. I'm really really digging the window reflection shots, gorgeously retro and alive. BTW I hope you shared your captures with the street performer, reckon he would of dug it.

[@joeredski]

I’m glad I’m getting you back into photography. Thank you very much 🙏

[@davidskinner274]

Frames and quirky, an extention to juxtaposition.
