    One of the best lectures about photography I've seen so far. Worth watching every minute of it. Plus great example photos.

    This is definitely one of the better educational videos on photography I've seen in a long time. Well prepared, at a good pace, with clear examples, to the point, and only minor time spent on self-promotion. Thanks!

    An excellent lecture on composition. The speaker was all a speaker on this subject needs to be, clear with a nice touch of humor. I liked the use of paintings, vintage photography and the works of female photographers. Just exquisite! Thank you B&H and Ms. Rafferty

    Definitely one of the most interesting, fun to watch yet objective seminars I've seen. Most photographers teach with a 'skew' to their genre / interests. This was simply well-instructed solid and helpful info!!!

    This is one of the most inspiring, straight-forward videos on the art of photography I've seen in a long, long time. I document what I see and follow some basic "rules" but my projects this year will involve being intentional about how I shoot following the many notes I took. This is fantastic. Thank you B&H!

  • @SchreiberVet

    This video was the perfect topic to help inspire interested photographers without talking about the technical side (exposure, aperture settings, iso, etc.). Ms. Rafferty is an excellent presenter. Thank you for having this available.

  • @thetruthrevealing
    @thetruthrevealing 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is like a "psychology in photography" class.Most of the time talks were about technicalities.Thanks B&H!

    I'm educated and charmed. I've watched 2 of your presentations and learned why in 10 years my photos are so matter of fact. You have given me an interest in art and renewed my enthusiasm for photography. Deeply appreciative, eager to master the craft and excited to express myself through art.

  • @easyon12

    Excellent seminar. At first I thought this was going to be a boring lecture on composition. After viewing the whole seminar I was suprised at how interesting Eileen made the topic. The combination of NUMEROUS excellent photos and lecture taught me alot. I will watch this video seminar again and next time I will be taken written notes.

  • @BandH

    @gksp-fx1do 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Your Eileen Rafferty videos are the most helpful videos to improving my photography. Lots out there on TH-cam, but these are the very best in learning how to see, compose, think about form, color or not. So very good. Thanks for sharing them.

  • @AgnostosGnostos

    Well done B&H.

    This is probably the most interesting thing I have bumped into, since I started my photography journey.
    I need to thank B&H and Rafferty for this gem.
    Again, this videos are the biggest reason I always make sure I buy at B&H.

    Once this gets going, it really is an eye-opener for an amateur like me. All the examples and dialogue made this a wonderful presentation. I originally watched this last year, but I re-watch it from time to time to pick up things I've missed before. Thank you Eileen Rafferty and B&H.

  • @GerryPls
    @GerryPls 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    After watching so many videos about the technical aspects of photography the bad photos still looked bad but were technically executed better. This video filled in many holes in my knowledge about composition and design the photographs. Eileen does a great job explaining the information and supporting it with examples. I look forward to learning from more of her videos.

    Awesome video by a clearly talented photographer *and* presenter. Perhaps due to her conversational tone, it almost feels like you're out on a workshop with her. Would not hesitate to recommend this video lecture to anybody interested in learning about photographic composition. Valuable for beginners, yet engaging and stimulating for seasoned photographers, too. Great job.

    It's fun quite simply. In an easy manner she explains and shows me how to see and how to use the visual language. It is truly remarcable. Now I'll start over looking att my photo books and of course practice, think, practice....

  • @chairreader
    @chairreader 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is highly informative, entertaining, and inspiring. One of the best videos on photography that I've seen. To be frank, I like how Ms. Rafferty has no ego. She has a teacher's heart and doesn't care about being seen as the all-knowing teacher.
    I also love her examples - she's secure enough show off other people's work (contemporary and classic) and point out the excellence in others. A great focus on teaching the subject matter, not showcasing her considerable talent. =)

    Great video, probably timeless. I notice this was produced a year and half ago, and I see the comments are still rolling in on this one. I feel like this is a video cheat sheet for ideas in composition and story telling. Definitely bookmarked for many future returns.

    Really enjoyed this one. Lots to think about and great examples. One thing though, miss seeing what she's pointing out on the photos, since you don;'t get the laser pointer on the video. A few times, was hard for my untrained eye to "see" what she was referring to.

    So glad you didn't dwell to long on the rule of thirds, it's just another armature that gets used to death by people who look no further into the armatures of composition. Great talk and much enjoyed, thank you.

  • @trevor9934

    The photo of Scottish photographers Hill and Adamson at timestamp 45:30 was not a Daguerreotype, they actually used Fox-Talbot's system of salted paper and Calotype negative system. This is apparent in the result, which is much less precise than that which would have been achieved with a Daguerreotype, but did allow for multiple copies to be made. They were benefitted by the fact the Fox-Talbot's patent on the process did not apply to Scotland.

    Simplification is good advice. A small film camera will help you and helps to 'focus' the mind. Use one lens, limitations help creativity.

    at first, I said to myself "oh god another know it all that knows nothing. another talker that doesnt walk the walk" but everything she says is accurate. I did learn a few things-things I knew and do, but said "hey thats right" when she explained it. things I never even thought about when taking photos but were built into my thinking. but shes very accurate in what she says.
    good stuff.
