Thanks for watching - if you like this video, remember to share it with your friends!
My name is Ted Forbes and I make videos about photography. I’ve been making photographs most of my life and I have a tremendously deep passion for photography that I want to share with you on TH-cam.
The Art of Photography is my channel and I produce photography videos to provide a 360 degree look into the world of making images. We all want to get better so lets do this together!
I make videos covering famous photographers, photography techniques, composition, the history of photography and much more.
I also have a strong community of photographers who watch the show and we frequently do social media challenges for photographers to submit their own work. I feature the best and most interesting on the show when we do these so come check it out and get involved! - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
“Our mortality is defined by two things : The way we treat other people, and the work we leave behind. “ Amazing Insight.
Fan Ho’s work will always be a source of inspiration. He was one of those photographers who loved to shoot against the light and in doing so, he captured ethereal scenes. I also love to shoot in the same manner which is one of the many reasons I will continue to cherish his work, his lifetime achievement.
He will not be forgotten, not by me anyhow.
Thanks Ted for this homage to Fan Ho.
I love his work... I was a kid in the early 70s growing up in HK. I remember some of the same streets, the central market and places he photographed...
i actually consider him to be a cut above his contemporaries.
You introduced me to Fan Ho's work.
0:48 oh man. Had to pause the video and comment on that picture. Wonderful.
Minimalism at its best.
"Approaching Shadow" has been an inspiration to many street photographers. Me included.
What an amazing body of work he left behind and this video was a nice tribute to him.
Nice tribute to an incredible photographer. Your trajectory is set and he will be there as a reminder. Well done indeed.
I've only been following The Art of Photography for the past few months (this is late April 2017) and I've learned so much! I thought I knew a fair amount about photography, but your videos about photographers and their work, as well as comments on creativity, etc. have broadened and deepened my knowledge of photography. I hope that that'll make me a better photographer over time. Kudos, and many thanks, to you and your work.
Wonderfully touching video. Your earlier videos on Fan Ho was my initial introduction to his work. he has been a favorite ever since. Truly a loss for the art community. Thank you for this tribute.
Absolutely amazing images!
That was a great tribute to a wonderful photographer! Thank you!
Thanks for doing this Ted. I had a feeling you'd be one of the first to do this. RIP FH
"You can be the best accountant in the world and inspire somebody else and that's important" OMG haha you know what Ted I'm on my fourth year of undergrad taking up accounting. I had a quarter life crisis. Gonna quit it all to take up photography. Well let's just say I'm not doing that but I still keep watching your videos. I'm learning as much as I can in my free time :)
RIP 先生一路走好。
Thanks for the video, Ted. Fan Ho is one of my favorite photographers and a huge inspiration. Approaching Shadow is one of the best images I've seen.
Well done - as usual.
Love the whole video and remembrance, of course. But especially love the last minute which highlights your insight to one's character and the legacy they leave. Thank you.
Thank you so much
This has blown my mind
Probably my favorite photographer now
I can’t even put into words how this has effected me
Great memories and insight. Love your videos.
Excellent and moving: many thanks.
Wow! That's some incredible photography!
I can’t imagine how proud you must’ve been to hear he enjoyed your video such an achievement and incredible photographer and inspiration to all great video very touching
such a inspiring photographer. you introduced me to his work which takes me to a place which is on par as gregory crewdson. his hour long interview shows his a great spirit.
Amazing artist. i was able to purchase his recent A Hong Kong memoir photobook. great work
what a great man! thank you! I love your show. My background is video. Got to street photography a few weeks ago and I find it strongly addictive. Thank you so mutch!!!
Excellent thoughtful video.
These pictures are stunning.
Really love this video!
a great homage to Master of Photography👍 sincere thanks 🍃
Thank you Ted.
Sad sad news but his work and passion are undeniable. RIP
Loving this channel. Just dropped in because of the No Film School article, now in a bit of an Art of Photography black hole! Keep up the good work
Amazing, such a talent!
I very much like ,his photos... they are works of art.
Great tribute to a great photographer
Late to the show, but love your videos and this one whose bottom line for me is about grasping opportunities. Ebola never got Fan Ho but got your interview and that's a bummer..listen, next time assure them you'll turn up in a spacesuit :).
You really do some quality, class stuff my friend. Thank you, and long may you continue
Nice to see someone who really appreciate great work and more importantly respect people :) Good Luck Sir :) R.I.P Fan Ho.
I remember walking on Powell St. in S.F. in the 70's and seeing Ho's work at a shop. I was just out of the Army and spent a year in Saigon running the CICV photo lab till it was shutting down. I couldn't believe the prints I was seeing. I certainly didn't have the completely reasonable amount of money he was charging for them. I never saw his work again until I hit the Leica store on Bush about 12 years ago in their book collection. When I think of Ho, I remember the projection room in Citizen Kane...
It's sad, I have just finished watching your video on Fan Ho you did in 2014 and as it was ending, couldn't resist myself so jumped on to his website but as I was admiring his work, this video started playing in the background window because autoplay was on and you said Fan Ho is no more... broke my heart ...
Thoughtful tribute for a true great!
Thanks, I will look at his website.
Great vid
Good job
you've a synthesiser! stunning photographs.. I don't exactly know my photographers
Wow, his work is,... awesome...
A Fan Ho interview would have been great. I guess the moral would be," Don't leave for tomorrow what you can do today."
Hi Ted, I'm so glad I got to know Fan Ho's work through this video. I really loved the picture that appears at 1:36 but researching about it seems to me it's Rui Palha's, a portuguese photographer.
Keep up with the channel and thanks for all the good content!
If you look at street photography being done today, especially the images posted to social media, so much of it baldly emulates this style.
Thank you for your thoughts my sentiments are the same As yours life is to precious to waste
A Brilliant Photographer
Fan Ho - Harold Feinstein (FH to HF) Great show, Ted! Although sad!
He was amazing. Kinda interested what kind of gear was he using.
@Lapu5000 loool
Where is your analysis to Fan Ho's work that you mentioned? I would love to see that video.
Great :)
You have gotten me into Fan Ho's work. I need to purchase his books could you recommend any.
Any particular books of his work that you'd recommend, Ted? Thanks.
great photographer
His tonal range is similar to W. Eugene Smith's. I wonder if Fan Ho used a lot of bleaching & selenium toning in addition to dodging & burning, techniques that Smith used to get that fantastic "symphony of tones."
I wish i knew him sooner
Where is a legit place to buy Fan Ho: Hong Kong Yesterday (7th Edition) 2021?
The modernbook website?
Does anyone know what film roll Fan Ho used in his career?
god bless his soul :(
That Korg MS20 watching at me ...
What a genius
The link to his site doesn't work and there seems to be a legal battle about who owns the rights. Blue Lotus Gallery versus a group using different names to include fan ho photography and the prices for the books are very different and there seems to be some colouring that was done on some pictures. There is a current court case on going. Could you point me to the right place to buy books of his photography?
Where can we see the work of "Art of Photography" dude ?
His lovely urban stair images are reminiscent of Leonard Freed.
Do you recommend "The Living Theatre?"
I can imagine how you feel about this...it is about mortality, but you are the one (among others) that feels left behind, people like him, and for you certainly H. Feinstein, set somehow a kind of safe fence that feels awkward to lose one day.
RIP Mr Ho
People are now realizing it's not about materialism
Get back to this stuff!
RIP.
2 years gone and still a void.....
R.I.P
a FAN

Mortality is limited?... You meant life is?... Or longevity, perhaps.
Cool video
:( sadly
何藩先生....
Fan Ho was born 1937 not 1931.
Not according to his own website…
Maybe Prof. Wallofski does.
