Yes! Exquisite photography. Hit me like first seeing and understanding Cartier Bresson. But, only 37 comments over 2 years, in an age obsessed with hype, sharpness and resolution. What has become of us? These photos will influence me and where I take my photography. Light, composition, and emotion. Thank you.
And to think, he probably shot with a $15 camera. Today we have to have a $3K - $10K one…to make us creative. 😉 Now days Most “photographers” haven’t a clue what is the zone system or how to use a light meter.
I consider Misonne to be the greatest pictorial photographer who has ever lived. I only discovered him a couple of years ago. His work is in some ways akin to my own. I simply do not understand as yet, how he was able to shoot against the light and get a tonal range that shows everything while looking etched. His work has made me consider my first steps in going back to working with actual film. This is after 25 years working with digital capture and eventually making the results look like film - close, very very close, but not quite.
The most incredible photographer i have ever seen. For me no other living or dead photographer or artist comes close to this man. These pictures move me so much.
Stunning, simply stunning. You can not replicate images like this in a digital camera. Not with any amount of post processing. I’ve just found my favourite photographer. I’d never even heard of him until now.
These pictures are incredibly beautiful pieces of art. What a sense of light and composition. Leonard is now one of my favourites. Glad to have found this video.
It is so refreshing to see such a talented photographer, in an era before computers, AI, and heavy-handed printing. He understood light, composition and how to render those on film and paper. Wonderful!
Some people can point a camera at the world and effortlessly covey it all, emotion,sense of time, balance and mystery. This work does just that. Superb.
Lisbon, Portugal. Excellent images of a bygone era. Superb eye and superb work for long time and every corner, people and places and situations lived in time. My congrats and many thanks.
Absolutely Stunning!! Never heard of This Master Photographer. I've been shooting Film for over 50 years as a Self Taught Amateur Photographer .The only other Master Photographer he reminds me of is Eugene Atget. Such Remarkable Craftsmanship. Many thanks and Kind regards Colyn. Subscribed.
If you like these, you'll probably like P. H. Emerson's stuff. He's much more famous, though his body of work is smaller. Like Misonne, he worked on the edges of Pictorialism and Modernism. His camera positions and use of monumental depiction, forefronting almost abstract shapes make for some very striking pictures. He was also something of a socially aware documentarist.

The more i see him. The more i fall into his world. If i could onl go back to his times. Todays time sucks.

What a sense of composition! Beautiful! I’ve been a photographer for fifty+ years, and I have never been so impressed.
+ what a sense to catch LIGHT
It’s like you paint with your camera. So beautiful like a painting. I’m so impressed with this.
Yes, outstanding images. All the mega-pixels monsters we use nowadays can't achieve this fantastic quality.

... magic, excellent ... thank you

Today, sharpness is how many judge a photograph, to be a good one. These are beautifull

Hi, I don ‘t think it was effortless. I think these beautiful images are the result of really hard wok. Take care.
Thank you peace.

Excellent artwork looks like art painting!

Today’s landscape photographers, don’t even come close to this photographer’s understanding of light, composition and artistry.
this is insane work of art perhaps more than photography... so inspiring, thank u

Can’t believe his range of light and shadows. Genius. But I remain skeptical, it’s sooo perfect. Oh, and the composition: excellent.
The work of a real master.

They have the look of paintings due to the bromoil process which uses ink in making the print.
Let's live pictorealism.
When God picks up a camera...
Tell me these are not paintings 😶🌫️
