Awesome personality, such a great interview!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much.
Wow. What a exciting episode. Now I know who Alex Harris is as a photographer. Good one, Jeff, thanks.
Thanks Z
Great video. I discovered his work a couple years ago.
Glad you were able to discover him.
Thanks for another thought provoking episode .
You're so welcome
I must say that this is one of the best youtube channels these days. I am looking fwd for the next chapter about 2sec after watching the current one. every time. Thank you .
Thank you, I'm looking forward to it too.
Thanks, Jeff, for your work in putting together this wonderful series. I appreciate the vantage point from which you approach these interviews, helping your audience not only learn about the influences that each photographer has identified, but also to learn about their photography journey. It’s been a joy for me to listen to these conversations, and it’s exciting to be made aware of so many amazing photographers of whom I previously was not aware. There are many good TH-cam channels which focus on “how to” and techniques, but, for me, the content on your channel is more fundamental and makes me think about why I want to take photographs as well as what subjects I am drawn to most. These interviews certainly inspire me to get out and take pictures, and to think about my own photography journey more in the context of putting together a creative and meaningful story, rather than worrying about taking a single “perfect” image. Although, if a few fabulous images occur along the way, I won’t complain, ha! Thanks again, I look forward to new episodes in this series, as well as whatever you might decide to do next. Cheers….
That is a really thoughtful response! I'm glad that you've been enjoying the series.
Enjoyed this immensely, thank you both. Alex, if you read this, can you leave some more information on your choice of 'narrative artist' and the first person experience, loved this take.
I don't know if he'll read the TH-cam comments, or if he has an account.
@@TheCritHouse I see, found that part interesting. I can email him, thanks Jeff.
Eloquent, beautifully articulate, inspiring...................and the superlatives could just keep on coming.....................Alex Harris is the latest in the line of guests that have opened up in such a personal (and personable) way about their influences and the reasons for their creativity via the myFIVE series, and why your series should be on everyone's watch list. Thanks Jeff and keep these coming!
Thank you. Thats the plan
very informative with genuine passion in abundance from you both. So Enjoyable 👍👍
I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Thank you.
I could listen to Alex Harris all day! Great, inspirational episode, Jeff.
We could as well. Thank you.
Loved this episode! I recently did a deep dive into Alex's work and read River of Traps. Wonderful to see him and listen to him talk about his work. How exciting it would to be in one of his classes. I found his warm, kind voice very comforting and reassuring as he talked about his photos and his selection. Thank you both. This podcast episode was uplifing and inspiring in so many ways.
We agree! We love his work as well. Thank you.
Loved this, and the idea of working in a series like the shopping mall, and then start on something else, he has so much experience 😊
He does have a wealth of knowledge. .
Best episode yet! This is what photography is all about (IMO). Thanks.
Wow. Thanks.
Good one. d
Right? Great discussion
This was a masterclass in photography! A++++
Agreed
Wonderful episode!
Thanks David
Synergy.
True
A very insightful and informative interview. After photographing for over 50 years, it amazes me how much there is still for me to learn. There are some nuggets of wisdom both about photography and life in this conversation. Thank you for sharing.
We agree. Alex is a great resource.
I’ve been saving this for when I had time to sit down and dedicate my full attention, and it did not disappoint. Thank you for bringing us this great convo with such a legend 🙏
We really appreciate that. It was a long time coming for us as well.
I enjoyed this episode very much. No pretension , just images she liked. Well done.
I appreciate that! Thanks.
Thoughtful and opens horizons. Wonder what my five images are.
Have you figured it out yet?
Another really interesting perspective on photographers and specific photographs.............and I loved the little "asides".....................as always, looking forward to the next instalment Jeff
I'm looking forward to it as well. Thanks.
Another great episode. Great and different insight.
Thank you so much.
Very good, thanks for the conversation.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you

I'm glad. Thank you
These "myFIVE" series are one of the best things that happen in TH-cam about photography, seriously.
What a nice thing to say. Thank you.
I couldn’t agree more. Jeff allows the conversation to breathe, but keeps it moving as well.
You and your guests are always good value, Jeff. Informative, educational and also entertaining!
I appreciate that! Thank you

Such a great episode. Loved her explanations and education of each photo.
Thanks for watching.
Just noticed that the image that Andreas selected for the fotofoto gallery's Phoneography competition won the grand prize in the New York Center for Photographic Art's "Wandering Curves" show. Terrific, congrats. Didn't know you had a TH-cam channel, I've subscribed and will continue looking at the great content.
Hi Eileen, yep. Everyone gets lucky once in a while. Thank you for the subscription and for the nice comment.
Very interesting! thanks
You are welcome.
Again, another fine episode full l of insight and inspiration! Thanks.

Really great episode, once again. Such an interesting guest and conversation. I like the deeper inquiry into photography and exploring different approaches in the medium. Thanks
Thanks, we agree.
Fascinating! I am shaken internally for a few coming minutes.
Glad it made you think.
Great series really enjoying it 👏

A properly good series of interviews. So I subscribed
Welcome to The Crit House. Thanks for subscribing
Excellent episode.
Thanks so much
Great video, thanks!
Glad you liked it!
@@TheCritHouse been spreading the word about your channel - can't believe you only have 4.5k subs considering the quality of production and calibre of guests - will keep pushing - and please keep up the great work :-)
@MightyCraicDJ thanks so much. We're too lazy to do all the things TH-cam asks to increase subs.
It was Hillary Clinton who referred to half of her Republican opponent’s supporters as a ‘basket of deplorables,’ in her 2016 presidential election campaign. Doy reminds us of the power of the photograph. Sometimes, the Crit House contributors reveal uncomfortable realities of the society we live in.
That's what photography can do. Thanks
Well done. Thank you.
Thank you too!
We are all so fortunate that you, Jeff, expose us to, not just photography, but the overarching question of why we photograph and what we're try to say. Arturo has really opened a new door for me. Thanks so much for having him on your program.
Thanks so much.
really interesting, thank you for bringing Doy to us!
You bet!
Well done, loved the stories.
thanks Richard.
Very good, thanks.
Thank you too!
Another incredible video. Thank you.
Our pleasure!
Fantastic discussion. The Russell Lee story 😂
It was a great talk. Thank you.
Wonderful episode. I've never heard to Doy Gorton, but his selections are familiar to me, and he's right, they're classic. Interesting stories too. Thanks for presenting.
Thanks for listening
Great episode. Interesting guest, fascinating stories and photos to talk about. Heartfelt with a lot of substance. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
