    This is the first episode of a series I'm going to start called "What Makes a Good Photo?" Where we will take a closer look at popular or award-winning photos and dissect what makes them "good," from a cultural, technical, composition, editing, and marketing perspective. My goal with each video is for you to be able to take some lessons away and be able to apply them to your own photographs!

    Afghan girl was shot on Kodachrome 64. So the iso was 64 and we don’t have to guess. That’s what it was. So he probably had to shoot the lens wide open or maybe a stop or two away from it at most.
    Love the video. Subbed.

    The composition of this portrait is superb. There is nothing like natural light for portraiture specially if the film used is the legendary and sadly missed Kodachrome 64. The exposure had to be absolutely spot on since he was using a transparency and no room for mistake. Much of the appeal of the photograph is due to that irreplaceable colour palette of the Kodachrome 64. Although this photographed has stolen the headlines, he shot a whole series of portraits of the Afghan refugees which are all a lesson in how to photograph, and all that without a single pixel in sight.

    Steve McCurry used Kodachrome 64 slide film for the Afghan girl photo. That’s very slow film , you bet he had his 105 lens wide open.

      yes there was a bit of controversy with him regarding anonymity, the use of the photo, and some ethical considerations
