My favorite 15 min photo challenge of the series. This would be a great location for a workshop.

[@tomtejaeveln]

Everytime I see a new Adorama video I'm about to keep scrolling but then I see the name 'Gavin Hoey' and I sigh. Just have to watch it.
Always such quality content! Keep it up!

I would have loved see you work the image with the workers inside the train: A much, much better image, in my opinion. Thanks for the inspiration! Nice work, as usual!

[@shahgc7480]

U Nailed it men

[@shassan3293]

Congrats on the Microsoft Surface Gavin.

[@poggis49]

Where did the traffic cones go to in the underpass shot? Some reshoots? Maybe not 15 minutes?

[@christopherstark6773]

amazing that you always find so much in 15 minutes. I tried to give myself a 20 minute challenge one time and didn't come across nearly the number of options that you did. Then again, I guess what they say is true - location, location, location.

[@sjsphotog]

Also another good mantra to follow is "Fact / Moment / Light" from Matt Kloskowski

[@Gomezhrt]

overdue for a challenge Gavin

[@julianstroppiana]

I`m getting in love of that camera!!!

[@troyhowling2497]

Julián Stroppiana Just got one!

[@hagarthehorrible1391]

ooh the Surface Book. nice

[@danielmanalili2062]

Nice

[@kongmw]

I read Guard 404 as in 'Guard 404 not found'

[@sudeep64ify]

Absolutely!

[@1BigBucks1]

Those train guys really looked like train guys.

[@hanmin147]

Noticed that even when you are shooting at 12mm there are almost no distortion on the lines? Post production or straight from the camera? Because that is just quite spectacular

[@GavinHoey]

12mm on the Olympus micro four thirds cameras is equivalent to 24mm on a full frame, so not as wide as it sounds ;)

[@ahmedbebars6844]

What if I tried to photograph the steam train guy, would I be shouted at?

[@daoquang900]

probably.. but that's what street photographers have to deal with everyday...

[@mountain2322]

Gavin is as good as Mark

[@gotopcpanik]

Not a 12 to 40, a 12 and 40mm :) Panorama 12mm Texture 40mm Text 40mm Subway 12, 12, 12mm Fire sign 12mm Box 12mm Platform 12mm Steamtrain 40, 40, 12, 12, 40, 12mm. If the lens where a 10-60 ... :-P

[@johnkraemer5505]

Oh my .................. Why are you using aperture priority mode....? At that site, you should be shooting everything in manual mode! OMG! Your using way to much photoshop! Why? Get rid of Photoshop and get a little bit more creative with you shooting! Just use Lightroom .......

[@GavinHoey]

Thanks for the comment John, I can't promise that'll follow all of your suggestions but I can assure you I'll keep doing what I enjoy ;)

[@johnkraemer5505]

Cool! Your welcome!
