as a school teacher , a father and a husband, sometimes I get burnt out and tho I have all these ideas , the timing and feeling to shoot has to feel right . randomly, I’ll have take a shot of something outside the window of my car leaving work and bam! I’m inspired . Even so, I take my time with it and if it doesn’t feel good , I don’t pressure it. I’m fine with that .
I love my downtime. When I should feel like in a rut, I fortunately have other creative pursuits. Sometimes its writing, sometimes drawing or painting or just editing my photographies. I find it freeing to not be fully consumed by one creative outlet all the time.
nothing like a good gardening sesh to get yourself inspired for your next photographic adventure. Love the anamorphic look, worked super well in that baseball field!
We all live busy lives and sometimes lose sight of what we really want to do to make us happy and it causes ruts or that burnout feeling even before we get to do "that thing".
This video was so good and stuff like this inspires me to go out and shoot.
I too, have a photography/film TH-cam channel and I haven't posted in a few months now. This inspires me to do so.
You have a new subscriber. I love supporting and seeing this on my feed as well because it pushes me to be better.
That’s amazing to hear man, thanks for the support! 🙏🏻
You are one of the best video creators that does photography on the internet. Mic drop
best photography channel on youtube by a mile
You are one of the best video creators that does photography on the internet.
That’s too kind, thank you 🙏🏻
Herein lies the slippery slope to an Xpan... Great vid as always.
If I could I would 😌
Dear Ivan, If this is the "rut" you find yourself in I just wonder what you'd be capable of producing when you find yourself in a groove! As I mentioned before, your thoughtful approach to photography is a rarity in these times of instant gratification and the futile fixation to shoot to get 'likes'. You already have the vision, and it's only a question of time before you find your voice. Not that they're mutually exclusive, but, in addition to being an accomplished photographer, I think you're already a top-notch video producer-scripting, concept development, editing...and, not the least, your cinematography. You have a rare talent, so keep up the good work!
Love it !!! Sooo stylish ! Proud of you !!
I enjoy your style and keeps me interested in photography and videography. Thanks for your work.
Saw your video and stopped doing everything else. Love your videos and calming voice. Thank you for being open to sharing and giving great advice. Love the anamorphic shots and video too. Hope to see more please. Take care
I’ve been in a rut and find myself toying with the idea to purchase the SL. but then I come to my senses and push through. Living in Saigon for 20 years I just can’t get inspired to walk the streets and shoot.
So glad I found this channel.
Glad you did 😌
Some awesome photos here; I particularly liked the ones of the guy taking out the trash, and your silhouette in the parking garage. This video is also such a great reminder that your lens (and camera) is just a way to capture your feelings about a thing or place, and we shouldn’t get caught up in trying to find ‘the one’ focal length, camera, or medium that is perfect for us
Appreciate it man 👊🏻
Sound advice.Many thanks.
I needed this video. My direction has been the same for a year or so now, and all of a sudden I'm in a tailspin because I can't get anything to look the way I want it to, and it feels like there's no cohesion in my work at all anymore. I've been traveling for about 3 months now, so my subject matter has changed drastically, and I think it's that more than anything. I like the advice to just 'shoot through it'. Thanks, Ivan.
Some familiar places 👍 great video
How about seeing ruts like fermentation periods with brewing: not a lot happening on the surface, but vital to development...
Thanks for sharing your thoughts in this video. I've felt stuck in my photography for well over a year and a half and it's been really frustrating and trying, but watching this video and even reading some of the comments make me hopeful about getting through it.
Thank you for what you do. I’ve just started getting into photography and making videos and I find what you are doing very inspiring. So just wanted to say thank you and look forward to following your future work. Ben
Happy to hear it Ben, thanks!
Hella underrated channel man, absolutely incredible work. Your visuals and cinematography are next level. 👊🏽
Great video man and nice use of that anamorphic lens. 🤘🏻
If you had moved to the UK from Hong Kong we are so much more crowded here than Canada. By that I mean you will have lots more people to photograph as the cities and even towns are packed with people. I often see street photographers in the US cities like Atlanta and I wonder where all the people are in the empty streets. I find cities stressful, but I dip in and out of them occasionally and I feel a real outsider when I'm in a city being more of a country person, but I feel that is an advantage as I often see things others who live there do not. Fresh eyes so to speak. Don't worry you are just rejuvenating yourself, taking a subatical.
The sun is out! Carpe diem 🙌
Amazing video and message. And must I say, this was a masterfully executed skillshare integration, haha.
Quite proud of that ad 😂
@@ivunchow you literally planted a garden based on what you learned from skillshare to be an analogy for your photography journey. That’s masterful execution
There was a skillshare integration?
Beautiful vid and great photos bro. Love the mood of the vid. Always enjoy watching it and listern to it. ❤❤
Thanks man 🙏🏻
This video hit at just the right time. I've definitely been experiencing a rut ever since I moved to Florida and I'm in the process of moving to the northeast where I'll have more opportunities to shoot. Keep up the great work Ivan.
Just adding one more comment to say much of the same. Your vids are beautiful, and your voice is very calming. I really enjoy your perspective on life AND photography. Thank you! 👍🏽👍🏽
Thank you!
Some interesting insights on freeing yourself from being stuck. And I've been stuck heaps of times. BTW like the anamorphic images in that low angle orange hued light. Thanks.
I always enjoy your thoughtful videos….
Appreciate it 🙏🏻
@@ivunchow Visa Versa...
Been in a rut as well coming back from Europe. Haven’t shot since being there. Might have to try the anamorphic route as well. Been eyeing those lenses for some time. Great video and inspiration, man!
Another thoughtful and insightful video , quite like the results though there does seem to be a bit of barrel distortion at the far edges of the the images . Is that a characteristic of most anamorphic lenses ?
amazing quality
Very good. Its psychologically sound not to fight your emotions or feelings but bring them into the light of consciousness and they will dissipate. They only bind you when buried in the sub conscious. Its not as rut. Its a growth spurt.
💯💯💯
Awesome work ivan ...its an interesting choice of lens...its gives another and awesome perspective..keep up yhe work i also like how u say a rut is time learn and try new
Another great video Ivan.
Yeah, they come and go for me. I still shoot, but the photos have no soul or meaning for me. And then bam! Inspiration hits, and im liking my outcome of photos more than chocolate ice cream with sprinkles on top.
This is the way
Unionvill lol...
Hey Ivan, how do you record the audio of your outdoor footage? it sound amazing. i hope its not from artlist or epidemicsound... 😅
Ivan any interest in taking on a paid role teaching/mentoring an older student with disabilities looking to get started in photography?
Hey how do you keep up with photography as a career? it is hard to pursue it fully when you have bills to pay and so on. I guess most ppl just keep going as a part time photographer? while doing full time job?
Question? Are you still just a Leica shooter?
Torontos boring and lost in itself...nothing there...come to portugal..
so fuckin underrated
