This is a great idea - to take the work of a photographer with a specific unusual style, and explain how they achieved the look. However no matter how much you master the technical side, it requires a long term devotion to a particular style to become as good as Olga. I once spent two months photographing Paris deliberately out of focus (not moving) to get an impressionistic style. Even though I took hundreds of such photos deliberately every day during that time, the number of keepers were relatively few. When it works it's beautiful; but just moving the camera or defocusing the lens is just the beginning. The message to anyone who wants to try working "outside the box" is find a style you like and then explore it extensively. I really enjoyed the video. Thank you.
I know for a fact that out of 1000 photographs of Cartier Bresson he only chose a few and I would say he has talent so if you take 100k photographs there might be one or two that can be classics
I bought the trilogy. She is quite amazing. We love the books. The thing is, her images are very evocative and emotionally charged. They aren't just ICM photos for the sake of getting blurry photos. Anyone can take blurry photos. If you look at her work you will see creative genius at work.
Completely agree. We may be able to imitate the style but we would never be able to imitate the creative thought & emotion she pours into her work. But we most certainly can learn from her and apply some degree of her style to our own images.
Found your channel while looking around for photography ideas. I've been a hobbyist for 5 years now and only just found out about ICM photography. Olga's work is incredible, wow. Thanks for covering it!
@@ImitativePhotography very kind of you to respond and say sorry. I watched your video and went out the next day to a historical site. Got some ok/respectable stuff. Anyway I can send it to you, since your channel has inspired it ?
I really enjoyed this. I love photographs that give me a feel like a painting. I have experimented with some long exposure/blurry photography in the past, but this artist and her work really captured me... I love it. It speaks to me so much more than the ever so sharp and accurate photographs we see and take every where. Thank you for sharing this.
@dreamscuba, I don't know if I "like" her work or not; this is the first I've known of her. But looking at her work, I AM sure it deserves more of my time and thought to form an intelligent response to it. Meanwhile, I agree about liking a photograph that gives me a feeling like a painting. The great painters of the past have much to teach the digital photographers of today. Rembrandt and his exquisite use of light and shadow take the viewer's eye where Rembrandt wants it to go. The impressionists. Etc. In our personal libraries, to inspire and instruct us, it may well be that we should give as much shelf space to books showing the works of great painters and sculptors as of great photographers. Just a thought.
Just when I think I've seen the best videos for my photo journey, one like this comes along and re-sets my thinking! AND with a GR8... Love it! Go go Olga!
It's NOT ABOUT HAVING A DISTINCT STYLE! It's about having a honed visual interest (love). The style takes care of itself. Find out what you actually like. See what opens the door.
@@39exposures I found with Guitar, early on you spend your time trying to mimic/learn 'how x plays guitar", then you spend the next load of time trying to shed sounding too much like someone else lol (unless that's your thing of course), otherwise the only feedback you get is "That's cool it sounds like you've been listening to a lot of Jimi Hendrix buddy" and that's not what I want.
I may sound like a replayed answering machine recording, but here goes. When I first started with another artistic endeavor, my teachers always said, don't copy my style, have your own. If you were drawn, as a beginner, to that person in the first place, of course you are going to copy their style. An artist's growth includes many factors and influences, and I agree, follow your passions and your style will find you. The resulting in an interesting paradox. Style, becomes "brand" - which can be important for financial success or even recognition, but it "locks" the artist into a perspective box.
Great video! Olga's work is beautiful. Such an underrated effect and wonderfully refreshing when you consider how so much of this gear centric industry is focussed on "sharpness" as a predominant factor for quality photography. Thanks for posting!
WOW! What a great teaching ‘finding your style and committing to it’. A fascinating story, and excellent video. Olga’s work is very appealing, and your practical demo is very engaging. Thank you very much 👍.
This is cool, and shows that often the difference between art and just doing a thing is scale. If you can commit to a style or aesthetic large enough, or long enough, it shows your intentionality. The method becomes the art rather than the images themselves.
Excellent video. Thank you for bringing Olga Karlovac's work to my attention. I love it. It's amazing what can be achieved with a point and shoot camera and controlled ICM.
Those monochrome works would look amazing if converted back to film on one of the Rose film recorders and printed in silver gelatin on point light. Great images, nice work.
Thanks for introducing me to photographers and photographic styles I knew nothing about. Persistence and vision paid off. I agree that the body of work helps sell the style even though each photo has interest in its own right.
Great Video. I did not know of her. I love her style. It shows that sometimes we should step out of the box we put ourselves in listening to everyone telling us only sharp images are right. I will definitely experiment with this. Thank you for your video.
I love this technique, I have tried ICM and have got some very satisfying photos from it but this video has inspired me to try some more, thank you for sharing
Oh, I was thinking on doing this but only with people's faces because I can't picture them in my head. I want my photography to represent how I see life. So this makes me more confident about it 💚
I really like her work. I'll have to see if I can get her trilogy of works. I discovered the strength of out of focus imagery when I took up photography a few years after high school in the late 90s. I was looking over some piles of 'bad' pictures and found a blurry photo of myself and was intrigued by it. The focus must have been way out of zone from a previous picture and sometimes I'd accidentally hit the shutter while looking down at the camera to adjust it. So I started to do a few deliberate out-of-focus images in a more controlled, artist manner. That was all film but since then I have had some success using digital as well. I'll have to get those together so I can share them at some point.
Great video, your narration and thought process explained and then executed well with the graphics in the video showing the settings and ICM direction(s). I would like to see one of these done for the ICM photos I see of surfers riding waves with a horizontal pan. The surfer is mostly frozen still but the surrounding waves/water are nicely blurred from the ICM
Wow I’m happy I found this video I studied photography in 2021 and we had to make photography books so I chose to do a book with blurry pictures I found it fun and relaxing because I would get supper upset if it wasn’t sharp enough and sometimes it’s good to experiment and try new things
That was an awesome presentation! It also made me think of the work of Saul Leiter and Monaris. I appreciate your discussion and analysis of Olga Karlovac’s photographic style. I am definitely subscribing to your channel :)
Sharpness is the last thing I think of when I take a photo. It seems the higher than megapixel count goes the more people forget the art of photography itself. I draw more than take photos and even in that media it is more about the work as a whole rather than just making it "clean" or "neat". I want to have fun in the process and show a little of myself in my work.
I like high megapixels for the opportunity to crop. Sometimes it's an alternative to a zoom lens, sometimes it's essential to get the artistically correct aspect ratio, sometimes for alternative compositions. Almost never a bigger print.
Great! Tnx for info, I just sensed request at FB for friendship to Ms. Olga. As a Leica man I can verify theory that there is no bad and good photography gear, just expensive and affordable ones but a lott of good and bad ayes.
It took me 15 years to even start getting over the stupid concept of "sharpness". Its just so stupid! It does not matter how sharp an image is if it is not an interesting photograph! These days I focus on taking interesting images instead. I see so many young photographers hung up on sharpness, this just stops them from developing a good eye for photography. Its just sad.
Wow, I don't even have a proper camera yet, but I'm looking into getting one soon, so I'm obsessing over photography lately. After seeing these photos from Karla, all I feel is a sense of ominous horror and emptiness. I quite like it. So very cool in a world of photography where everyone wants to get that crystal clear shot.
So glad to have stumbled on your channel! You are really helping me past a photographic doldrum by this content I get to see photography re-imagined. Than You🙏🏼
I think she is one of the most exciting Fine Art Photographers I've seen in a very long time? One thing I didn't understand is, how does she get that almost photocopy B&W look exactly? By the way your channel also is great discovery!
Late to the game but I would still add my two cents. Excellent video; especially the inclusion of the camera settings and the direction of movement. Temperature was an added bonus. Your photos were quite good.
Well I watched a few interviews with her and she mentions she barely does any editing, just some minor contrast adjustments, so that's why I assumed it was ISO. But now thanks to some commenters I found out there's a actually a high grain black and white preset with the Ricoh GR which might be what she uses.
It’s awesome finding out about photographers who are working in your home town ❤️ Ps: pleeeease do an episode on Elizaveta Porodina, i have no idea how she makes images like those
I am going to have to..I tried this, but it was just too much light to have a slow shutter speed at the highest aperture (16 is the highest on my 35mm 1.4)..I was getting completely whiteout..I have an ND1000 bet that's too much..arg
Perfect example of "searching/finding our goal/fight/challenge and define our achievement/success/next-coming-goal/fight/challenge" => "the Art is built trough challenge/techniques and destroyed throughout freedom (technique-free)"
That's cool as a complete newbie to photography I'm happy to get an in-focus shot at the correct exposure. I have a few pictures like this, I just need to move the camera more 😄
very nice video and picures. I practice that style too but in color. For the finishing touch I often dodge ans burn in post in Photoshop. A bit like we used to do with black and white negative priting with masking.
Very useful channel, thank you! The two other (quite different) photographers that I think of with slow shutter are Paolo Roversi and Ellen von Unwerth . Both of whom had a different focus, and then entered fashion.
This really cool too see, you imitate a Photographer's style. I subscribed and am looking forward to seeing what other Photography Style's you explore.
I found out this "technique" of blurring intentionally with my point and shoot as well. I wondered what the "SL" flash mode might be, turned out the camera shoots with flash but exposure goes on for like 1/4th of a second or so, not only brightening up the background but also introducing blur. By intentionally moving the camera after the flash you got pretty similar results and i also somehow liked a few of those i shot but i didnt get WHY they look so "special". Must be something to intentionally blurring out nearly everything
The grain is mostly due to the GRII high contrast black and white preset rather than high ISO.
I believe it can be done with a very high ISO and a ND-filter, or as you say with post in PS/LR.
The GR is nothing special. It can be done perfectly easy with any dslr, especially older dslr's with a more limited dynamic range.
@@jurgenvanhest9913 Who is mentioning postprocessing here?🤔
shoot with high iso on any small sensor DSLR and convert to black and white, do a little bit of contrast adjustments and get back to me.
