Being in a rural area it's only now that I discovered that there are others drawn to and doing impressionistic photography. I've had a few put on 16x20 canvases and had people go, "I love your painting." They were truly surprised when I said it was a photo and done in the camera. It is nice to know that there is an actual community out there. Thank you, Eva, for taking the time to do this video.

Hi ! Eva, A huge thank you for the inspiration to take my own photography to a different level . I am an Artist who has always loved the French Impressionist painters. I am ver old now, but produced many of my own impressionist paintings during the 1960s. I still paint , mainly in watercolour. After I retired , I took to serious photography, `Street Photography mainly. But about two years ago, I experimented by adapting ,first an old projector lens glued to an M42 adapter. Then I did the same with a tiny Cine camera lens, both very high quality. Both of these old, adapted lenses are used wide open, so focussing can be a challenge, but get it right,especially with flowers, plants and insects, the results are beautifully Impressionist …

Hello Toy Maker, Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm thrilled to hear that I've been able to inspire you to take your photography to a different level. It's wonderful to see your passion for art and the French Impressionist painters. It's truly amazing that you have been creating your own impressionist paintings since the 1960s. The fact that you still paint, mainly in watercolor, shows your dedication and love for the art form. It's fantastic to hear that even after retiring, you ventured into serious photography, particularly street photography. The experimentation you've done by adapting old projector and cine camera lenses sounds fascinating. Exploring different lenses and techniques can often lead to unique and beautiful results. It's fantastic that you've found a way to achieve impressionistic effects in your photography, especially with flowers, plants, and insects. Focusing can indeed be a challenge with wide-open apertures, but when you get it right, the results can be truly breathtaking. I encourage you to keep exploring and pushing the boundaries of your creativity. Your artistic background and willingness to experiment will continue to shape your photography in exciting ways. If you ever want to share your work or have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out. Wishing you continued success and enjoyment in your artistic journey! Warm regards, Eva

I like your video. All I heard on other videos was how blurs were a big mistake, and that photos were ruined. I never thought that. I even enjoyed the over exposed, and under exposed photos. I just enjoy the art part of it.

Hi Eva, Thanks a lot for this very interesting video, I have always liked impressionist painting so I find impressionist photography quite appealing and I would like to learn about it. Which are the differences between Pictorialism, Impressionism (photography) and ICM?

The art of today is total crap, it’s mediocre like it’s never been ever before. Even the Greeks or the Egyptians did better and more interesting refined works than what people do in the 21st century. Up until the 21st century art was flourishing, finding new ways of expressions, bettering itself with knowledge and the many inventions of mediums, then the world wars happened and what came out of it was degenerative generations of people and things, mediocre in all their ways and on all aspects of life. Some lucky folks who lived inbetween and survived after the world wars were spared from mediocrity, I’m thinking about Josef Sudek but I think he’s the last great photographer, everyone else that came after him didn’t live up to the quality of works done previously. When you look at the photographs of Misonne or Demachy as showcased mostly in this video, and see what came after them and what people do today there is nothing to consider. For the first time in history we are seeing total regression, but I think more like total death, and it’s not like it was with the different movements of arts and Impressionism that shocked people at first, only to be loved, understood and embraced later, no, in our generation it’s total mediocrity, there is no beauty, it’s crude, vulgar, lazy, overcooked, snapshots of reality, void of any sort of artistic value. We sure have all the tools, but we can’t make anything good, and don’t start talking about minimalism, it’s just a travesty, it’s deceit at its finest trying to give the illusion of something resembling art but it’s not because of its overcooked geometry which I hate and which is in total opposition with art. People take phuckkin snapshots with a digital camera, push a button to make an inkjet print out of it and call it art these days and it’s just unbearable to witness and see that people embrace such mediocre mentality. You’re better off not doing anything than doing and using such worthless things that seem to exist only to bring more money into the pockets of those that produce such tools. Omg and this icm technique is the most mediocre thing you can do with photography, goddamnit, I see nothing whatsoever in it, it’s overdone, overcooked and totally cringe to me, it’s got 0 value to my eyes, much like the never ending snap shots done today, either it being digital or analog it’s the same, it’s like everything has been done already and that what’s left is just appreciating the works done in the past which bares proper quality and proper beauty. Everybody claims to be a photographer or an artist these days, phuckkin hell, take a look at your work and then take a look at what’s been done before you a 100 years ago, don’t you feel ashamed of yourself really ? Even I have tried and I keep trying but it’s not even worth showing because I see that what I do is mediocre, and what people do these days is as mediocre if not light years more mediocre than what I do myself, and i regret it to be this way how no one living today is an inspiration or giving any sort of spark to life like it was before. It’s just sad to be living in this generation, all we see is garbage throughout the day

It's understandable that you may have a preference for the art of the past, but it's important to remember that art is subjective and can mean different things to different people. While some may find contemporary art to be lacking in certain aspects, others may find it to be innovative and exciting. Additionally, it's important to recognize that art evolves with society and cultural changes, and what may have been considered great art in the past may not necessarily be relevant or interesting to people today. It's also important to avoid making sweeping generalizations about entire generations of people and their creative output. It's okay to have personal preferences, but it's important to approach art with an open mind and to appreciate the different forms of expression that exist in our world today
