    I see a giant with his mouth open and the dark part being his body and legs. The giant is very angry and the rock is standing its ground. Having pareidolia helps to ‘see’ things like this for me.
    Your amazing photos deliver the sense of fury of the ocean to the viewer.
    Thank you for the great tips, particularly the camera settings.

  • @kaid3566
    @kaid3566 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    This is my first time watching one of your videos, and I'm VERY impressed with your process and the resulting images! The main takeaway for me is that I spend way, way too much time walking around, whether I'm shooting coastal landscapes or doing street photography. Somehow I've become too restless in mind and body to accept the "sit and wait" approach that you so wonderfully describe here. You resemble a plen-air painter, setting up their studio in a carefully chosen outdoor location. I am inspired to work on my patience and let the images come to me, rather than ceaselessly hunting around for the "perfection that I might encounter just around the corner." Thank you!

    • @MichaelShainblum
      @MichaelShainblum  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Welcome to the channel, and thank you so much for your thoughts on my video. I really appreciate it! I think the approach of "sit and wait" vs "walking around more" all depends on the subject matter and shoot. For example, my two previous videos to this one are more about the "walk around" approach as well, so I certainly do not think there is a right or wrong way to shoot, just different methods for different situations. :)

      @kaid3566 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@MichaelShainblumWatching more of your videos, I am continuously stunned at the quality of your photos! Have you considered displaying each image, unedited, before you unveil the final post-processed version? I think that most viewers realize that taking a photo is just the first of many steps in your process, and it could be interesting to get more of a sense of that. (This comes from someone that hasn't quite yet learned to enjoy editing photos...)
