  • In this episode of Photography Online, we start our penultimate day of our challenge to photograph all 15 UK national parks in only 1 week. Today we are in the South Downs and the New Forest, but Marcus spices up the journey with the help of the world's hottest chilli. We then get some lessons in how to get started in wildlife photography - looking at the best settings and technique to ensure you get great results right from the start. James is then pounding the streets of Havana with his camera, looking for strangers to photograph. If you're too shy to approach people in the street, then this is a must watch to improve your street photography. Then finally Marcus shows us how to get Hasselblad X-pan results without having to actually buy the camera. The X-Pan is one of the most sought after film cameras, which makes it one of the most expensive, but as we will see, you can get the same results (possibly better) from a quick and simple hack.

    Another great video everyone.
    Loved the carolina reaper stunt Marcus.
    James's face was a picture and Harry was crying.
    Well James got you back Marcus with the chair scene lol.
    I thought you were very close to the edge of the cliff Ruth to get your shots.
    I thought it was a bit of a risk
    You certainly captured some really nice image's when you went out on your own Ruth..
    Marcus i think you are the master when it comes to film photography.
    Your image's are absolutely stunning.
    Look forward to the next show.

    Great content in this latest episode. The chili pepper gag was hilarious, poor Harry and James. The wildlife feature was interesting and it was good that Harry covered a bit about fieldcraft and the welfare of the subject - that is so important in wildlife photography. Re the two Silver Birch images, definitely the first version, the sky was much more interesting.

    • @PhotographyOnline
      @PhotographyOnline  19 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      You don’t really want to use auto ISO as you’re then not in control of the exposure. It’s better to work in full manual mode if practical (which is usually the case).

    Great wildlife feature from Harry. Do you always use Manual exposure? If so, how do you it with something like birds in flight, where the light can change very quickly?
    Do you always expose for the subject and ignore the background? Hope this makes sense! 😊

      12:50. Love the channel, but my suggestion would be that if you want an opinion comparing two versions of the same shot, either put them both on the screen at once or have one immediately follow the other.
