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.
@@picat4 the op. he doesnt phrase it as post processing but the word "preset" is interchangeable with post process, as in, the camera does the post processing, and doesnt just give a flat redout from the sensor, it does a bit of teiddling
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 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.
Creativity combines many factors of experimentation and freedom from comparison.
Absolutely agree. Every goog photograph has his own eye & Touch. Don't like to talk about settings etc. This is Pure & Unique Art. Congrats 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.
totally agree with that. you can mimic almost anything, but it's not about the certain technique.
@@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.
'having a style' sounds so yuck and vain, not to mention self limiting.
spoken like a true skateboarder
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.
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!
love your work! one of the best YT channels
Love this kind of artistic flow
Beautiful work!
Thank you for this video, love Olga's work
Excellent! Great explanation of how it's done and photos to match, thank you!
This is the most underrated photography channel . absolutely amazing content , Keep it up . Subscribed !!
such enjoyable images you took, and well explained! Can't wait to try. Thank you to you and thank you to Olga 📷📷😎
Great video. I hadn’t heard of Olga, so thank you for sharing. You did an excellent job with explaining the technique.
Just lovely, thank you
another great video: almost like a delightful lecture I can not get enough of. Thankyou
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!
Really enjoyed this post !
Thanks for this great and inspiring video 😃👍🙏
What a great vidéo, very inspiring
Fantastic video, well done. Also, love that the comments here are super thoughtful and nuanced.
Thanks for introducing me to this artist’s work - amazing
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.
Love this. Thank you for showing this technique
Wow, I love this.
Definitely one if not the best photography channel
Just found your site and this video. It's great that you show her work and then the recreations, which were very good. Subscribed.
Excellent video. Well done! Thank you for sharing
Fantastic vid, fam. I love her outlook...plus, the HCB quote is timeless. Subbed.
Thank you! Very interesting story!!!
This is the best photography channel on TH-cam. Thank you
awesome.. love your work
Love this… She does amazing work. Was great seeing you showing her technique. Nice commentary too…
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.
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.
Fantastic shots
It's really great and helpful what you are doing! Thanks very much! And continue!
This is so good! Thank you
Perfect! Thanks for sharing
Love this womans work. Will start working with it in my Style. 😎📷
Some really good examples - well done
This channel is beautiful. Thank you ♡
Really enjoyed this one.
great explaination of how ICM works
I love the video game esque overlay you put over your photo walk. Especially with the diffracted sides it reminds me a lot of MGS
Nice discussion and love your work.
I work with a point and shoot.. I haven't done anything in a while.. but now I understand how she works.. incredible stuff
Thank you for a really interesting and useful video. I found the technical camera data really helpful.
Interesting method. Gives some great photos
Very cool
love it, love it, love it
This is so cool. I've taken a few photos like this unintentionally. Yet i love them. The ones I like the most were actually taken with the tiny Pentax Q. In camera high contrast monochrome filter. And they all happened during a holiday in Lyon France.
That was commitment,going out to shoot in that weather in Toronto! I was shivering just watching it.
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 video inspires me a lot. It takes me to another dimension in photography. Many thanks! 🎉
Great info! Thanks!!
Nice work bro, nice shots of yours also! Interesting video, thumbs up!
Spectacular
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!
Thanks for watching and well said!
Nice work! Thanks!
Enjoyable and interesting video. Thank you👍
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 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.
This is so amazing.
She is amazing, I never heard of her before, thank you for the discovery. Now i need to find money to buy her books !!
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.
Thanks for uploading, that was very interesting and informative
Informative video, and great images!
Thanks!
Love her work.....😍😍😍
Excellent !!!
great work and great reproduction of the style!
Thanks!
6:49 was probably my favourite shot, great job!
Thank u very much for sharing ! She s great, i love blurry photos. Good work !
Well you’ve gotten my attention! Thank you!
I really appreciate this video. Thank you.
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.
Nice idea to breakdown and try re-create the style of a photographer you admire. A great learning tool more people should use!
Definitely!
Excellent, thank you! Subscribed!
Your video was really interesting! Thank you.
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 :)
I will never forget when I stumbled upon on a Saul Leiter exhibition in Munich Germany a few years ago.
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. This video is amazingly important. I love it and needed it. 📷📷📷
What a great content!!
Excellent video. Well done! Thank you for sharing. I’ve been fascinated by motion of late. Her work is stunning.
Thanks for watching!
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 AM LEARNING SO MUCH FROM THIS
ths channel is top shelf
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.
Cool vid. Love the bag shooting technique! I like shooting without people knowing that you're taking pictures, way more candid. Will try it.
Excellent. Thank you.
I like this form. I'm gonna have to try it.
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.
i frigging love your channel.
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🙏🏼
Great to hear!
Nice. I think I will have to try this.
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
Thanks, I'll look into it!
This video was a treat to watch!!! and having no music it was calming for the soul!!!
I forgot to add the lofi beats 🤣
@@ImitativePhotography OH NO!! I hope I didn't remind you!!! Please don't...
@@PCcardboard1354 don't worry I try to be purposeful when picking music and not using it just to fill the background.
@@ImitativePhotography I trust your skills sir!
Really enjoyed the video, well done, Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Love it. After my camera got stolen in an armed burglary, I had totally left learning. Now I feel like starting again. Thank you.
Sorry to hear about your camera.
@@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 ?
@@jigggro if you're on Instagram you can send it to me there, same name as the channel.
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
Very nice video. Good concept, well-narrated, and interesting content. Technically excellent.
Thank you for watching!
Unique video idea! It's fascinating how creative the human mind can get. 🙃
