Your videos are like lessons from the best lecturers I had at Uni and the best teachers I had at school - your passion for the subject is infectious and you make everything seem achievable. I've only recently come back to photography and your help has been invaluable. Thank you.
One of my favourite photos from a trip to Paris was one I took outside a café at an absurdly low shutter speed. No tripod, no ND filter - just sat the camera on a table and stopped down as far as possible. Then took “street” photos that blurred out the people moving across the frame. Far more instresting result than all the other holiday snaps.
I've been a silent follower for a while now, but I just wanted to say thank you :) Your passion for photography always comes through your videos in such a genuine and inspiring way! Keep doing what you do! I always look forward to seeing your videos in my feed :)
I really appreciate the historical photographer references!! It's a good refresher for me 12 years later!! This is the detailed content I'd expect to see on NMA or something like it. Well presented and honest dialogue. I've been binging your videos for hours now lol
Wow, very inspiring and motivating message Alex. I love how genuinely passionate you are about experimentation. You always leave me with so much to think about, thank you!
@@ThePhotographicEye to explore not just what I’m photographing but why, and how. I normally only think about bringing out feeling in post, but this gives me another way, and maybe a better way to try and do that.
@@ThePhotographicEye I have. There was a paper mill ( it's now a plastics recycling plant) plant right behind my home and I have photo's of the smoke stacks emitting steam both in daylight and night shots.
Movement brings in Emotion which is 1/3 of the triangle of photography. The other two are Composition and perspective. Emotion is the hardest aspect to photograph.
Excellent. One of your best. It would be interesting to see the camera settings for all those photos. But hey, I'm going to go take some photos with all this in mind. Thanks.
Always think having the settings to hand is a bit missleading, esp when it comes to shutter speed as everything is so fluid and dependent on a number of factors. Have you tried some long exposure images before?
@@ThePhotographicEye I've done a bit of long exposure work, but this episode really inspired me. I'm a bit tired of seeing the milky ocean and water images, but the examples you showed went so far beyond that. I agree that shutter speed doesn't get enough attention. This was an eye-opener.
@@ThePhotographicEye I like to photography birds, insects (macro), motorsport as well as long exposure landscape so am used to using varied shutter speeds for effect however the Alexey Titareko images stunned me, I’ve never seen them and they may be the most beautiful urban/street I’ve ever seen. I realised there’s even more to the game than I’ve explored and that that unique shot could be hiding a few 10ths of a second away. Perhaps I could even take an interest in urban photography if I could play with that sort of effect. Your undeniable enthusiasm and passionate presentation in this video helped drive the message home. Fabulous video Alex 🙏
I never thought about shutter speed even though I predominately do long exposure but you have made me think about it now…. As I have been playing with aperture and long exposure but maybe too comfortable with the long exposure. Really like the way you make you think about what you are doing and what are you actually trying to achieve….
Did you ever do theatre or something because your ability to present a topic is insanely good. It’s like you’re on a stage delivering a motivational speech 😊❤
sometimes you can use the flash duration for shutter speed help... but I'm not good enough to use this nor do I have the kind of equipment to explore the possibilities. That's OK. I'll look at pictures from another photographer.! Your videos always make me think and learn, so thank you. As always... good stuff.
i know i was looking for a video where someone tells me what shutter speed i have to choose for what scenario and what lense i use, but i did not know i was looking for this video. i'm glad i came across your video, since it opened my eyes in regards to shutter speed and that there is not really ONE right shutter speed for one specific scenario. the idea of making the fotographs alive by choosing a slightly slower shutter speed than would be correct is something i've maybe done but brushed it of as a parallax error. looking at some of the "failures" now, i understand the concept of shutter speed better. gonna try and implement it in my fotography then, thank you!
Knowing a bit more about shutter speed has helped me get things a lot less blurry - but I have not had opportunity to experiment much with slow shutter speed yet. I was amazed at seeing what others have been able to to do with it - some things I thought it would take photoshop to do can actually be done with just the shutter speed dial.
Interesting photographic lecture you did here. Often wondered who did the bullet tearing though the playing card and the apple. Back to your lecture, you are right how shutter speed is often more important than the F-stop, without using the right shutter speed, you will get a more dreadful picture. The photo at 7:39 is more glamorous than the one at 7:49. Strikes me as being gritty then glamorous. Thought the young lady had a blade. Anyway, without the F-Stop, shutter speed and ASA (or ISO) working in concert, it may result in dreadful photo.
Absolutely cracking video, Alex. I love your passion for photography and the way you obviously want to impart your experience and expertise to others. I have learned so much from you. Thank you, and please keep making these wonderful videos.
Great stuff. 1/10,000,000,000th, huh? I was happy when I got 1/32,000th (and actually use it on occasion, especially @ f/0.95). I've done some long exposures and there are some great effects you can achieve, but so many people do it to excess that it often lacks originality (especially where water and clouds are concerned--it's gotten to be cliché). Titarenko has some more interesting examples, but as you point out, really interesting stuff can emerge between the extremes (like Haas' swimmers or your dancers). Did you use a fan to blow the hair at 7:40? Your main point is well taken--not every shot needs to be tack-sharp and free of "defects"--that's where real creativity begins...
One thing that confuses me about shutter speed is that 1/500 on Sony A7IV gives me crisp photos of stationary birds at 300 mm, but on LUMIX G9, which gas great IBIS, I get blurry shots 3 times out of 4 with the same shutter speed. Any thoughts?

That’s awesome, thank you for watching
Could you please make more videos about the technical aspect in photography like the one you did with aperture and this one? You are the best

very engaging 15mins, on shutter speed, interesting examples. very useful photography content.
Glad you liked it John. What was your favourite example?

You are SO good at what you do. A real blessing for the photography community.
Thank you Alex. I needed this reminder. Not everything has to be sharp. Enjoy the moment
Another excellent, inspiring reminder...😍!
Wow, very inspiring and motivating message Alex. I love how genuinely passionate you are about experimentation. You always leave me with so much to think about, thank you!

The Titarenko photo's are amazing ! Great Dance photo's Alex. I love long exposures when I get the chance to do them.
They certainly are? Have you ever tired something like that?

It was funny, as I was making this I felt I lingered too long in the long exposure range.
Superb teachings that go beyond the generic perspective ❤️

Intense...loved every second of learning through this video. Rewind and watch again
Thank you
Epic video, Thank you, Alex. I always leave your videos inspired.
Happy to hear that! Are you planning on doing any shooting this weekend?
@@ThePhotographicEye Yes definitely! I have been feeling very demotivated because I haven't been getting sharp shots like I see online.
Thank you for the inspiration! You're enthusiasm is contagious :)
Thank you
The swimmer coming up through the surface of water, wow, thanks Alex ☺
Love this one I am going out to get either a 6 stop or 10 stop filter and take some of these pictures 🙂
I’m motivated to do that as well!
@@johnlangston4108 I just picked up 1-11 stop ND filter.
Thank you. All the best. 👍📷😎
Thank you soo much for this video. I love to listen to you
Thank you
Thank you again for your views on what I consider the least understood artistic tool in a photographer's bag.
You're what every professor aspires to be like, if I didn't have to go to work now I'd grab my Canon A1 and go shoot, thank you sir
Awesome. Thank you for watching

As always, an insightful video from which I can learn a lot in terms of photography. Thank you very much for this!
Glad it was helpful! What was most interesting for you?
Wonderful video, Alex 👏👏
I felt that. I’m smiling 😊
Great video! I loved the examples you showed. Your preparation and hard work show in every video you make. Thanks for doing what you do!
Thank you
Dancing with light is beautiful.
Absolutely cracking video, Alex. I love your passion for photography and the way you obviously want to impart your experience and expertise to others. I have learned so much from you. Thank you, and please keep making these wonderful videos.
Thank you watching
I am intrigued and now I want to play with the shutter speed.
As always Alex, a great presentation and content. I've learned so much from your tutorials, thank you.
Thank you for watching
Thanks for another informative video.
Another great video. Thanks Alex.

This was fantastic.
Good to see a picture of English cricket player in the speed photography commentary. Wondering if he was Eion Morgan.
Really enjoyed this video
Best video yet...
thanks for another mind- opening video...🤭..greets BM
Thank you
Another cracking video
1:01 Wow! And at 10:37 the photographer has the wrong team scoring the try ;( Fantastic video Alex! One of my favourites on your channel and TH-cam.
Awesome, thank you
Thank you!
So great🙏👋
Thanks to you, I now have a cat named "Howzit".
😂
Shhhhh!! Your saying too much!! 😂😂 I’m being cheeky.
EXCELLENT SIR! Your helping me a lot.
Hahah, I thought they were my secrets :D
