Everyone is saying the portraits, but I'm gonna have to say the shot of the flower with the water won for me.
Thanks a lot Joseph!!!!
Man I’ve just discovered your channel and you’re already my favorite in the youtube game, keep it up with the good content, cheers from Italy, I’m sorry for Jake but the flower shot was spot on
Thanks so much!
I see what you were going for, bro, but the guy taking your portrait won because I think your stuff was a bit overexposed and a lot of detail got lost. It is definitely a look but I think he ran away with it on this one.
What strobe is that? It seems really good and easy to setup.
It’s a Broncolor
@@MikeGrayFilm Amazing, thank you! By the way, I’ve only recently found your channel on here and I love your work, keep being awesome!
Quickly becoming one of my favorite channels on YT. Good vibes, some well-shot pictures, all it takes. Who cares who won the challenge? (mike did tho)
Thanks Hendrik. I appreciate you! You're right, we just wanted to make it a little fun competition. It's all love though!
I watched the video not looking at your subscribers and then after I saw this amazing video I’m like dang, how many subs they got? 455, WHATT?!?!?!? NO WAY!!!!! Make that 456 btw. I really ended up liking Jakes, they were so sharp and crisp and tasty. Both were great though!!! Good luck to everyone for the giveaway! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🤞🏽
Thanks so much!! haha
Thank you sooo much
I think the flower too!hhhh for me it is pentax!! because I think the lighting was more brighter!
Jake’s portraits are a winner : they were super clean and sharp, but I gotta cut some slack for Mike’s task, that’s a hard one!
This video is awesome you guys are awesome and well done
Killed it!
Thanks Tyler!
I feel that the close ups of the flowers were definitely beautiful! I would’ve loved to see some complimentary colors as a background instead of just white but still beautiful shots! Also loved the portraits those were super crisp and well composed for how quick they were done, the black and white film was an excellent choice!
Thanks for the feedback Ace!
I think Mike took the challenge. The portrait is a bit too far for my taste, plus it looks like some GQ stuff going on, and the flower is front & center and the colors are spot on.
Thanks Sam!
Jake won, in my opinion. I thought the flower was good but like the picture of Mike best.
Keep doing the videos you want to do man!! They’re sick!!
Thank you!
Already told you in the DM how much I liked that video bro, but I need to leave a comment here to help you out with the algorithm haha.
Tough choice to make between you two!
But I'll have to go with Jake haha. His portrait of you is clean!
Wish you had time to do something with fire, I would have handed you the win haha.
I really liked the flower outdoor with Jake holding it which creates a very dark background.
Haha thanks a lot my guy!!!
Yessss! Thank you so much!
For sure you won Mike mainly because I've got a kink for macro
Thanks! haha
Yeah I reckon the portrait won it just by a hair! Due to the depth I think, the flower shot feels flatter then it could have been. Controversial opinion but I really liked the flower image outside against his chest! Bit too much contrast but I loved the idea!
For me Jake won the battle. I like the portrait of you more than the one with the flower. The water on the flower was almost invisible and in general i think the portrait was very well done.
Thanks Paul!
I think Mike won. Both took great photos, but the water photo with the flower took the cake
Thanks a lot Robert!
Can't lie... the portraits were fire
I agree Aaron!
I say you won because im a geek for color and plants 0_o
Thanks Jaylon!!!
I’m sorry Mike even if i like your way of doing things (more instinctiv) for me the best picture this time was the portrait. The main reason is for the black and white choice, the framing of the subject (asymetrical) and the small shadow behind you that allows you to pop from the wall. The video was cool ! See ya from Paris
Thank you Thomas!
You won!! I love the colors on the flower!! I think mamiya glass is a lot sharper!! I wish you verbeeks success on TH-cam!! You deserve it!!
Damn. Thank you bro! I really appreciate that.
I'm a little biased towards portraits but I think Jake won, that picture of you a bit to the right of the frame is really good. I respect that you put a bit more effort in the technical stuff with your shots tho
Thank you!
As much as i liked the jake's portrait of you, I think you won the challenge because me as a photographer i would go a lil bit stuck to get shoot a flower and you delivered the pics so good! Loved the water ones!
Keep making great content man! Greetings from Italy!
Thanks Francesco! I will do.
Dawg how are you a film photographer and a awhile ass model 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
gotta be a triple threat! lol
I think you won for sure. I feel like hake could’ve gotten a bit more creative with the shots and the angles and you were able to figure out a more creative angle with the flower
Thanks so much for the feedback Reggy!
Human+nature+landscape= beautiful
Well thank you!
Tough call. I respect the challenge of shooting strobe at 1/30th on the P67. gutsy move :) but the flower wins it for me, the light, the colour...sweet captures
Jake won this challenge. I liked the variety of shots taken with the flower. If this was about all of the photos from Mike and all of the photos taken by Jake, I'd choose the photos taken by Mike. But, just judging the top two photos I like the portrait better. I could be biased to black and white though.
Thanks so much for the feedback Taaj!
Thank you!
Pentax 67 for the win...partially though because I am more into portraits than still images of flowers.
Totally understandable. I agree with you! Haha
Thank you Scott!
What a silly video. This is not about photography.---at all. This is just about gear, nothing else. And the pics-- no comment.
love this video.
I'm going to go with you being my personal winner just because you used natural and studio lighting as well as adding a bit of flair with the water
I appreciate that AJ!
Came across this randomly in my hunt for tips on film photography and fell in love with the channel! Both were so good, considering the time you guys had!! Jake's portraits were so clean, but I think I'd have to pick Mike's. The water with the flower just hit different, I liked that he took it as a chance to experiment and try a lot of things as well.
Thanks a lot!!!
Both were good, but I feel I vibe with the flower photos Mike did. This is my first time seeing the channel. Just randomly popped up on my YT feed, but I'm happy it did. I'm excited to go back see what I've missed and I'll find you boys on IG. ✌️
Thanks a lot Will!
jake won because of his consistence 😴
yesss! thank you !
This can't be guaranteed but I think we all know truthfully who won the challenge--Mike. Not only the photograph was a great shot, but you've managed your time pretty wisely and with just the flower; I loved how you added the water and the petals weighed down, beautifully
I appreciate that Lyn. Thank you. You've been entered in the raffle!
Great video! I'm shooting with the Mamiya RZ67 and I like it, even if I'm dreaming of owning a more "flexible" Pentax... My favorite is the bw-portrait :)
I would use the Ektachrome 100-120 , it will be very impressive for flowers, my perspective!!! Keep up a good job 👍
Gotta go with Mike, those shots were crispy.
I appreciate you Matt!
I will go for the portrait with the Pentax 67, because he shooted with a focal plane shutter in studio and the portraits are neat! Peace ✌️!
He definitely deserves credit because that was not easy at all, and his portraits were fire!
Don't register me for the raffle, I don't need that camera, if I won I will sell it, I prefer someone who will use it to won it.
Loved the flower pictures but I found the portraits inherently more interesting!
1. Jake wins.
2. I would have liked Mike to photograph the flower from a top down angle to show the real beauty of the blossom. In contrast Jake’s Portraits came out perfectly, pretty fire actually.
I still have my Pentax 6x7s. I feel guilty for not using them since I went digital. Both median format camera companies produced great cameras and lenses, though I think they both had a different vision about how their cameras would be used. Apples vs oranges...
Photography is always about the feeling for me and in this case the Pentax67 won imo. Could also be because I just loveee black and white photography ;)
Yo i got a Minolta at a camera store for $5 i haven't printed and developed my photos yet, but now I'm excited, cuz I got the same model and those pics look FIREEEEEE
I think the pentax 67 won this challenge.
The portraits are serious and "distant" but still much interesting. The flower was just a flower, aesthetically pleasing but not narrative compelling like the portraits.
Gl everyone!
I like to add surrounding elements like water on the flower, creating quite interesting emotions. So it looks like i'll give the win to Mike!!!
However, you and Jake did a great game, very good quality pictures, keep it up and congrast all of you :3
Funny thing about those cameras is they’re so different, if one had the money, having both would be awesome.
I think the best picture was the photo of the flower. The water gives a hint to the nature and that makes the picture extra good! :))
Keep up the good work ;)
Thanks a lot Kenny!!
😂 That shit you said about not being a tech channel had me rolling... .. Finally someone is more about the creatve side of thangs.. As for Challenge Winner Jake should've won but he kept you doing the same pose Mike has my vote.
If I were to go off the whole roll I would give it to Jake but based on just those two photos the colors of the flower pops more and the water makes it interesting and pulls you in more so imma go with mike
I appreciate the feedback Hakeem. I agree with you! Jake killed the roll!
Thanks man! Mike definitely did really good job making that flower look good though.
Once again I can’t choose. But that rose was dope. Made me rethink my floral photography.
I loooove the flower shot Mike. Keep it up! Greetings from Canada.
Thanks a lot Maxime!
Hello, I can guarantee that both cameras are boring, I worked so many years with analog cameras, I can only look at them sideways, just last month I sold a Mamya RB67 proS with 2 chargers and two lenses and a few more accessories for 600 €, I was glad to have dispatched the last relic of the times that I used this.😆
Currently binging your channel Mike and saw the challenge for the minolta (my best friends favorite film camera) and figured I'd try to get in the raffle to give to him lol.
Unfortunately bro Mike did win it for me, he's photos came out so clean and the black and white was perfect for the emotion i think he tried to being our from your portraits. Flower shots were still great tho, much harder subject and challenge for you. Appreciate you and your channel man keep it up!
Jake won ! Because u a good model hahaha peace ✌🏽 dope video btw
It's all love! Thank you bro! haha You've been entered in the raffle!
Thank you! Damn right mikes a great model 🤣
i found the portraits more compelling. thank you for the giveaway!
Based on the two top images to choose from at 13:02 , Jake won based on more creative composition. The flower shot is meh. Shooting flowers is hard, and you had your time and equipment (lens) constraints. Remember there is always more than one angle - 3 or 4 of your shots were nearly identical. Roses look great from up top.
Was the Pentax shot with MLU? I always thought the 67 would just give shake at anything less than 1/100
Wow working with one of the greatest? What a pleasant surprise this video was!
I think the flower won. Its vibrance, detail and elegance. But tbh we all won cuz this fire ass video.
It was the colors of the flower for me
Thank you!!!
jake won because the portraits are very good and those details my god. Grettins from Brazil
I think Jake won this challenge!
His exposure was on point I think yours was over exposed in my opinion.
Jake took this, but only because you were the subject lol. So really in a way, you won. Would've been sick to see some shots of the flowers with petals burning.
TH-cam portrait is cool. The flower is cool as well. I like looking on both Fotos but both are subjects I am a complete noob. Couldn't make out a winner
Does anyone have a source about how it only took 30 seconds to shoot the Steve Jobs TIME cover photo? Would love to read more. Thanks!
i think jake won with his portraits
thank you
Mike won for sure. Much more creative. As far as portraits go they were good but nothing out of the box. Mike definitely took that flower to the next level. Good stuff man 🙂
I appreciate the feedback man!
Sick one, since im a digital shooter im quite happy that you focus more at the
practical taking pictures front then getting the tech right.
Transporting emotions in shots get only harder if you focus to much on tech stuff.
Ask tyler about the invers squer law
I like the zen approach. Minimalist is good. Almost a Richard Avedon portrait with the white background leaving us to examine ourselves as much as the sitter in the portrait. The trip is content and composition. Perhaps a lower camera height and a slight upward angle was the way to go. There needed to be a little more asymmetry somehow. Good call on shooting mono. The flower was all about form and composition Portra really sang in the colour department. The shot that caught my eye was the one against the black hoodie. We could tell someone was holding it and that added another dimension to the shot. That was a different way to create a narrative in the image. I think there was scope to use a 50mm and the bellows extension to make the flower more dramatic and larger in the frame.
I'm a black and white guy so gotta be the portraits. Gotta say I clicked on this pretty randomly and was super shocked to see Tyler Shields; absolute legend.
Dope photos all around but the portraits win, super sharp and well-composed. The flower is way harder though haha.
Is a honor and privilege to be around Tyler , I personally love my Mamiya’s ,,!
Imma have to go with Mike, getting to shoot an object and with a RZ which is more for portraits requires much more practice and skill imo, also I'm biased towards color lol
I'f you'd have given the camera to me, it'd have been my first camera too. lol
I'm trying too hard
I think Mike won with the flower. He really grew that rose out of concrete by bringing to life that great shot. Who knew simplicity and beauty blended so well.
Me personally thinks that the flower is the more harder subject to get right and more interesting to capture.
i just get a rb amazing camera!
Enjoy it man!
I think the flower won the challenge for me. I love shooting portraits but it was a unique way of shooting still life.
I think Jake won with that awesome portrait of you. But if it makes you feel any better, I think you would have won if you were to have shot a portrait of him :)
First off, what an awesome TH-cam recommendation! Dig the vibe. You got a new sub!
Regarding the challenge, I think Jake won with the portrait. I love the simplicity of it and the fact that you weren't centered in the frame (not that there's anything wrong with that if it were) and you had a white shirt on, too, which just helped with the overall contrast of the image.
PS, I appreciate the creativity with the water and the flower along with the colors, but with just the outer petals bending out, the flower just looks a bit broken. Beautiful image regardless.
Keep up the vids! Excited to see what you got next.
Thank you Gavin!
I like Jake's image better but I'd like better just a full or half stop more exposed.
Just came across this channel, great stuff! In my opinion Jake won, he kept it simple and his photo was more evocative.
He most definitely did! Thanks for watching Preston!
Thank you Preston!
apart of me wants to step out of the crowd but i think you really learned how to pose from posing people and for that reason alone i think jake took the win on the challenge (pls pick me!)
I got to say Jake took it away. The portraits he took of you were sharp, great use of shadows and complemented your strong facial features.
Both were great, however, your portraits evoked more emotion to me
Name: aju raveendran
reson: good giveaway nice vedio , overaly realy nice
Pls give me if i eligible
Jake’s portraits are undeniably clean but I’ll go with Mike bc his shooting was more challenging and required some more skills and imagination. He shot in different light situations but still be able to kept them consistent.. also he was being creative with water pouring down and those are what I like about shooting in general- be creative with what you have.
The pictures were beautiful !!
I think Jake won the challenge because the portraits were contrasty and I felt like the black and white film was a great choice. The flower shots had really great colors though it was a close one!
Portrait takes the win. Looks like a great rnb album cover. Lol.
First of all, props to both Mike and Jake. Both set of photos came out crisp, sharp and dope. However, I give the slight edge to Mike. Making it a bit unique with the water was a nice touch and it's a picture I haven't seen before really. Jake's portrait of Mike was very well done, but I've seen those photos before. Also, I always rock with color over b&w.
I like the picture of the flower more because it has such a simple color palette and the petals just sit so nicely together. Looks regal.
Thanks Luis!
I would say Jake won. Great portraits, clean and sharp !
that flower shot is minttt! love it
Thank you!
Mike the first round with you being the model showed confidence and strength in the photos; your friend did an amazing job. I liked the photo with you on right side of the photo with the space on the left.
No doubt that you did an amazing job with the flower. I like the photo with the black background. I think you won the challenge Mike becuase you were willing to ask for some advice. Asking showed how humble you are in learning. Having confidence and the ability to ask some advice showed a different level of growth. Keep growing.
I appreciate that Briana. Learning will be never ending. Thank you!
I would say that the flower pictures were better than the portraits. It seems that the flash helps to get those close up details of the flower and the colours were amazing. Nice video:)
Can you make a video about how to use flash with film camera please
Loved the video. Your flower photo was great, love the balance and symmetry, you make a good model too!
Thanks Carolina!
Your viewers won. Straight up.
Indeed they did haha
That’s facts
I'm on Jake side on this challenge haha. Love the details on the picture and of course I must admit that i have a crush for the Pentax 67 :)
haha I agree Cedric. I'm Pentax all day as well. Thanks for the feedback!
@@MikeGrayFilm it's a pleasure!
Thank you! There’s nothing like that Pentax 67
