Sorry for the audio issues in this one. Also, the aesthetics and technicality are still very important, but I think in regards to finding personal satisfaction, pursuing emotion out there will be most productive and fulfilling in the long run.
I’m not hearing the music as being too loud at all. The only issue I can hear is that your voice is only coming from the left channel, which is very disconcerting when listening over headphones.
I love the way you work ❤. My favourite photography quote is " don't shoot what it looks like, shoot what it feels like" (David Alan Harvey)
Very nice. Thanks Kay 🙏🏻
What I love about photography is the knowledge that the image you take is completely unique, a snapshot in time that no one else has taken and can never take because the exact conditions will never be repeated.
what if i take a photo of your photo😂
Then you have a unique photo of a photo
I think you have put it so eloquently and perfectly described the passion and empathy needed for all types of photography.
Hey Will-I can't tell you how much these videos on the thought process behind getting photos in the field helps me. I feel it helps me to simplify my approach and I'm enjoying being out there so much more. Thanks.
Thanks mate! Really encouraging to hear that. 🙏🏻👊🏻♥️
Being with nature is what resonates with me, making and sharing photographs is a bonus. thanks for your acknowledgements.
Thank you 🙏🏻
Totally agree with you. I've just completed 7 months of travelling around Victoria, from the High Country to the Mallee, and everything in between. There have been some places that I visited that just left me flat, but some places just made me cry with joy that I was seeing such beauty. I share my photos, but mostly my photos are my memories of beautiful places and experiences, and these do seem to be my best photos.
Exactly, landscapephotography to me is al about adventure & experience. 🙋🏽♀️😊
😊😊😊
I do agree. I'm a member of a photogroup. We have a mounthly competision. The images winning are these that express a feeling.
It is true - to be in a moment, it is my photographing process I dissolve and enjoy. ❤
One of your best video's yet! Sage advice indeed and something we all should remind ourselves of often. ❣
Wow thank you 😊🙏🏻💚
This video is reasons you’re one of my favourite photographers of all time. You know where the real connections are at. And it always shows through your work! 😊
That means so much coming from you. Thank you Liz.
Here here and could agree more with you on this. Emotion is a powerful guide in everything we do with photography. Each image is a memory and you can relive that moment of sheer pleasure. Nothing 'airytfairy' with that statement. Many thanks and I enjoy your videos.
Thank you 🙏🏻
I think it makes sense. I am very new at this and certainly get caught up in the technical stuff, and my photos are “nice”. Nothing wrong with nice, but when I learn to convey emotion I think the quality of my photos will greatly improve. Need to keep going, keep practicing, keep grinding. Thanks William!
Mindfulness....it was the moment your connected to
So nicely spoken and so true, I always enjoy listening to you and even after watching your video I still think about the message you put out.
Just great, take care, Carl
Thanks a lot Carl
Love it, thank you for a good reminder 😊
This video speaks to me a lot. I realized this year that in addition to feeling close to nature in the forest, I am very connected when I am in a valley surrounded by high mountains with snow-capped peaks or surrounded by rock formations. I am deeply touched by the majesty of the trees and fascinated by the rocks which have so much history. I realized that northern landscapes appeal to me more than tropical landscapes. I feel at the right place when I am in that kind of scenery.
It’s a beautiful feeling when you know where you’re meant to be.
What a great video. I get hooked on the quality side sometimes but your right it’s about the emotion we feel.
Quality and technicality is still very important but I think from a personal satisfaction, pursuing emotion will be most productive and fulfilling in the long run :)
I think you hit the nail on the head! Thank you for sharing!👍😀
Amen, from beginning to end. These are the points I consider when posting any image. If it feels "forced" (be it the initial image capture or the post-processing or any point in between) and without something evokes emotion, it's simply a "snapshot" in my opinion. Some of my most well-received images surprised me in the past, for I was sometimes rather dismissive because of what I thought of as a lack of technical quality but they generated some common emotional connection with others. The more I shoot, the more picky I've become over the years about what I post for these very reasons.
Well said again mate. Thanks for the support!
Haven’t ever clicked out yet 😁
The more I’m out the less I feel like getting an image is important and the more of a nature high I get. It’s addictive!
Number 1 fan 😂 thanks so much Fi
@@WilliamPatinoPhotography 🤣🤣🤣 you bet!
Spot on !!! Each one takes you right back to the moments we cherish deep down ❤
💚♥️
Great video as always! Very much enjoyed this one
Thank you William for this, few days back i was going through my back catalogue, and yes many images which i dint finalise made me remember the good times I had while creating those images, ultimately its the emotion which is main and not how and where.
Thanks mate. Something to keep in mind anyways 👊🏻
Great topic. And so true. I often go back to photos I had previously passed over, and find that they have more meeting to me than I had originally thought. I edit them and end up very happy with them. Sometimes you need to put a little time between taking the photo and actually appreciating it.
Definitely. I really don’t like looking at raws the same days as I captured them. And then the edits I like to have sit there for quite some time. That helps remove the bias. Thanks mate 🙏🏻
Great advice as always. New website looks great
Appreciate it. Thanks mate 🙏🏻
Thank you for your emotional input AND. Processing most with the brush. I usually use 5 image stack for landscape. The auto in LR over exposes. So I set exp, contrast, vib, and sat to zero. They have been shot for the highlight so they are dark.And NEVER touch them till the end if needed. W- the right camera selection mode,tone curve, clar, mid slide I can get the image to lighten up to use calibration and color mixer to get balance color and exposure then the paint brush. For more local control.
Nothing more to add. Thanks!
Thanks a lot mate
Great advice Will, the big takeaway for me is “slowing down “
Thank you 🙏🏻
It’s a wonderful feeling to experience. Thanks William, know where you’re coming from.
Thank you mate
Love this and strive to practice it in my own work. The technical side of photography is like understanding elements of poetry like meter, ryhthym, stress, and form. None of that makes a poem. The poem (and I think of photographic art as visual poetry) comes from the attempt to communicate or express how you relate to the world around you. (Heading in December to NZ South Island for a month - first time - getting excited!)
Well said. Hope you have a great time!
True words that really resonate. I feel like i still take as many photos as before but the ones that get whittled down and kept these days now meet this sort of of criteria. Good journey to be on, have a solid week man 🤙🏼
Thanks a lot brother 🙏🏻👊🏻
I've learned so much from you, both the techniques and emotions. It brings my joy to photograph God's creation and share it with others. Hopefully, it challenges them to go out and experience it for themselves. The only photography I like is nature of some kind and capturing the human emotions. I'm not good but I'm learning.
Thank you Mark. Really happy to hear that mate.
This is really interesting Will (and not airy fairy at all!). It’s good to be reminded about the emotional connection, and not be distracted by wrong thoughts and assumptions we make about our own work and what we think are priorities and aims. Thank you for making this, it’s really helpful. Ps I went out with my little pocket fixed lens camera on Saturday and the novelty of not carrying kit that weighed as much as a small donkey was lovely and felt less pressured and I took one of my favourite images yet.. so you are spot on about the emotional side vs kit and post processing.
That was deep and... so true ;).
Cheers brother
Thank you Will, still not out shooting yet 😢your video has reminded me of the excitement I felt when I was shooting for the first five years and have struggled over the last two years. Thank you so much for sharing, feeling inspired 😍
I hope you can get out there again soon. No expectations. Just enjoy nature and the light. It'll come back.
@@WilliamPatinoPhotography hope so! I’m desperate to find a location to re inspire me! I might head down to the south coast for a few days!
Just the right amount of "airy-fairy" for me 😂..
Thank you for this, William - advice I didn't realise I needed to hear.
Great video - much appreciated sir 🙏📸
Haha, thanks a lot legend 🙏🏻👊🏻
Not video content related perse, but you've got some strong Russell Crowe vibe going on, William 😮
😂 I’m ok with the 2000 Gladiator era
Thank you. Perfect video. You told us to focus on what counts. And I agree with you.
Thanks a lot 🙏🏻
So true, unless I feel a connection with the scene in front of me it is not likely that I will press the shutter. If I do it certainly won't get processed. Just had a look at your new website, the images really are stunning, what an achievement in amassing so many breathtaking landscape shots.
Appreciate that mate! 🙏🏻Thank you.
100 % with you on that 😊 I'll head over to your website.
Appreciate it! 🙏🏻
Thank you for this great video with great thoughts!
Best regards from Sweden. Paul
Thanks a lot Paul 🙏🏻
Your like the Alan watts of photography ❤
I partially agree with you, In my experience feeling can confused you a little pit, some of my best shots I wasn't convinced by till I publish them. Art is subjective and there is some thing that you can't put your hand on it but it relate to people more than it relate to you
Hi Will, really inspired by your work and methods. It’s been a gamechanger for me. Could you perhaps explain or do you have a video on how you do your handheld focus stacking.? I see you can do the stacking with just one hand on the camera. Is it a feature of the Sony? 👍
Thanks mate sounds like a plan. The recent sony canon and Nikon all have focus stack built in, so it progressively takes the frames for you. Doesn’t blend them though.
Interesting. I have the opposite view. The vast majority of photos presented on photography forums show images that the maker finds beautiful because they were present, but do not successfully translate that feeling to the final image. Everyone who pursues landscape photography over a period of time experiences awe. But that feeling is not a marker of what actually makes an exceptional photo. The premise of this video seems to be that many photographers don't find emotional connection to the scenes they photograph. I've never had an in depth conversation with a serious landscape photg where I found that to be true.
The premise is that I think you’ll feel more fulfilled pursuing emotion and feeling out there, rather than simply the aesthetics. It’s completely subjective though, of course.
😊😊😊😊❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
😊🙏🏻
Well said, Will.
Thank you 🙏🏻
is it just me that the speech is in the left channel and the musical accompaniment is in the right and quieter? It's hard for me to listen like that
It was the same for me with my headphones. Wasn't sure if it was just mine.
Despite this, the message was still an important one. Needed to hear this one today.
Not sure what happened. Editing processed was definitely rushed on this one. Thanks for persevering!

The sound is extremely low.
Yep see the pinned comment. My mistake.
