One thing I always wondered and never actually tested myself. When you shoot through a window of a moving car/traing on slow shutter speed, do you pan camera with the distant trees/houses/subject?
I just held them in place. The motion is different by different distances. So whatever’s closest shots the most movement. If you imagine in an extreme way, an airplane travelling at 700mph seems slow because it’s so far away, despite how fast it’s travelling you wouldn’t capture the motion blur unless you were shooting in seconds. If a person ran right in front of you at 15mphh and you shot them at 1/30s then you’d capture their motion blur
Hey! A key memory of this was when I got my friend - who was a photography teacher for years in the US - to roast my book for two hours. Being able to go into that with humility meant I got the most from that situation, rather than just being upset by it. Other ways are asking for feedback from Reddit or other people that do similar work to you. Friends and family tend to be the worst because they don’t wanna hurt your feelings
Criticism is one thing I struggle with, not because I can't handle it but because I DON'T GET ANY. I've been doing photography for almost 6 years now and have 2 Instagram pages and a Facebook page and I get hardly any comments except from family and friends. I have only gotten feedback from fellow photographers a few times in my life. When I occasionally do paid work I always get positive feedback, but that doesn't really mean a thing to me as the general public has no idea what a good photograph is. I have no idea if my photography sucks or not because nobody will tell me.
Go join a camera club and you’ll get loads of help if you want it. Most clubs not only have competitions where you get an experienced judge telling you the things that and those that don’t, you will also have opportunities for members to critique your work. Just remember if you can’t stand the heat keep out of kitchen 😉
Nice video and sample fotos. But for the love silver halide, get a microphone stand or boom arm. They're not meant to hold in your hand like an ice cream cone. There's handling noise and it's very distracting to look at.
No, we don't have to spend 7 years.... we need to go back to decent processing of film, prints that are light through negative, onto paper. I shot hundreds of rolls of film. If I got a roll back with four really bad shots I was mad at my self. NOW... I'm lucky to get a roll back with five or six decent shots. I don't think I've forgotten how to run a camera... scanning is just crap.
Been shooting for 3 years now, really great video!! :)
Very nice. Nice editing, great voice. Nice pictures.

thank you for the video. How did you expose yourself to criticism/feedback?

No black and white film shooting?

Thanks for this video. What is your shitty Nikon?

Since I started inverting manually, I have found it a lot easier to work with even really difficult exposures
