couldn't agree more

perpendicular, not parrallel

[chefdimo]

Another great video. Can anyone tell me please why he used f 32 on the last photo? What differences would it make very low F stops were used? he says that the DOF is only couple of inches, so why go with the large F stop?

Thanx

[heartdoc25]

@chefdimo I think its because with macro photography your DOF is so shallow that you really have to stop it down to get everything in focus. Maybe because of the very bright sunlight coming in he wanted to have that shadow created without having blown out highlights so the shadows were well defined and played part in the final image as well as everything else arranged. I've been following his videos for years and he really is an incredible instructor. out of the box thinking for sure.

[MrCUBALIBRE5]

Very good men, congratulations !! Great Imagination, this kind of video helps to improve the knowledge and the sense to see in a different way. Tks a lot, I admire u.

[BretTriano]

i love how cracked out he seems :D very good video tho

[psychobudz]

Thank you Bryan and Adorama for presenting this. Bryan you never cease to amaze me in your ways of turning trash into gold. Great piece of work for opening the imagination when taking a stroll and shooting photos. Happy New Year 2012 guys.

[RANDOMH3RO666]

Pure Genius :D

[lamarpi314]

Looks like Junk to me.

[stotp2]

man..quit saying you wrote those books...we all know it and it's annoying to hear it every time. just put a link to those books in the video or something

[brent847]

I shoot a fuji S1800 12mp 18x zoom. it has quite a few limitations I am bumping into as I advance my skill. only a low/high aperture mode (and zoom locked) no hot shoe, fairly slow shooter,(.6 sec shutter/1.3 sec large pic continuous/11 sec flash recycle) only jpeg mode.

My attempts to get a shalow DOF have been poor. (1/2000 to 8 sec) F11 at max zoom

Can you suggest to me what may be a good photographic subject for this type of camera?

[brent847]

ok once you get cool images like that, what do you do with them? do you stock them? make big portraits and sell them at a gallery? or just stick them in your electronic archive?

[prasannabanwat]

Bryan, you inspire me everyday!

[ScotPhotography]

Go Calgary!!!



[Bakamanzz]

This guy is a genius!

[SuperHammer63]

Wow! Bryan you are amazing! I always learn something everytime I watch you.. Thank You!!

[Ponudium]

wish i was this creative :P

[oceandrew]

Who says you can't shoot interesting images at midday? Not BP that's fer dern shure!

[MrEltel63]

Another eye opening video, thanks Bryan.

[RLJSlick]

Bryan is just a genius!

[MrMAAKK]

Perfect !

[ricca509]

Love him

[harrybean2006]

Brian you are a true artist! Your creativity never ends.

[SaDScO]

i just want to go out and shoot because of this. Keep up the good work!

[darkraiden23]

this man is inspired by garbage :O

[CanAvs16]

good tips once again. anyone else find it a bit odd that he is in a junk yard in Calgary? it's not the junkyard part, it's the fact he's in Calgary. "Lets take a trip to an Alberta junkyard, hmm... i think Calgary would do best."  Bryan Rocks!

[soitsawhat]

Wow....again. 

[boymasskara]

where are my bad audio rants?! :))

[567turd]

Really enjoyed that!!

[DFWTarheel]

Thanks for the great ideas.

[meltdownman1]

The world is such an amazing place...thank you for letting us see the unseen.

Bryan,

Great video as always. I learn a lot from you! Just a small point for those of us who are new-- you said the camera should be parallel to the subject, but I think you meant perpendicular. I look forward to your next video.

[bwworld]

@conniestofko Bryan is correct but maybe needs a bit of clarification. The camera's sensor surface (or, if you're still shooting film, the film plane) should be parallel to the subject. The shape of the lens makes it seem perpendicular, so I can understand your confusion ;-)

[9MrEvil]

Love Brian and the vids.. Cool

[skyworksjp]

Thanks so much for the video. Thought provoking, informative and inspirational as always.

[burple65]

Hey, Bryan...your watch in this video said it was about 20 minutes to noon. What's up with shooting in the middle of the day? I thought that was the time of day when you preferred to be hanging out by the pool?

[BrotherBloat]

@burple65 the watch micht have been aquired at the yard ;) hehe

great video Bryan, thank you! really compelling images indeed!

[devonmale69]

@burple65 Not with shadows like that?

[gotrottin]

Thanks for the inspiration to go out and shoot on a day where I was bored stilff.

[pramodmeee]

Awesome as always!

[fredca09]

So easy a cave man could do it....

[MrTanker10a]

@fredca09 Amen to that! Who knew?!

[johnnyscirocco]

very nice Bryan, great ideas

[MrTechAwesomeness]

His shots are good but seem almost 2d there is no depth to them if he where to change the angle just a bit to add depth to the fence one and the rust it would look amazing

[07476870]

I have Bryan's book on 'Understanding Exposure' and I find his teachings light-hearted yet clearly explained. The man is brilliant!

[401SNelson]

Inspired as well!!

[chris5903]

INSPIRED. :)

[dobermansnp]

Bryan you are funny and an amazing photographer!!! Really nice job and explain!

[FrankNazario]

Sir... it is an absolute privilege to see your teachings and suggestions... it has showed me that it is not about the camera its about the muse... and creativity.



[abudhabilecture]

this a great find.... what a great muse you are Bryan!!!!

[asim24]

You're a legend Bryan!!!

[daSenfgurke]

I feel like every episode bryan is surrounded by garbage. and makes good images out of it. so awesome. :D

[muzzbang1]

Brian, you are an inspiration to any budding photographer. Each and everyone of your videos are worth an immeasurable dollar figure.You keep filming.

[drevosv]

What a pleasure to watch how he is working and teaching. Thank you so much!

[farhanshaheen]

[donmatt74]
