Great talent and professionalism. I like your serious but yet informative and engaging approach to these lessons. Immense amount of knowledge you put into your short clips without all the pretension. Finally someone on youtube that I can respect. Just classy.
I have never been really "religious" about the rule of thirds. I am aware of it but when I am framing I think more about Backgrounds, Balance, and as you said, It's more about what you exclude than what you leave in. I have had people tell me how great my compositions are when really I was just trying to keep a STOP sign out of the frame. LOL
Very nice. It's refreshing to see the evil Rule of Thirds (ROT!) being discussed in a less-than-literal sense. So many people mindlessly "place the bird on the third intersection" without realizing that they have simply substituted unthinking "bulls-eye" composition with an equally unconscious rigid interpretation of ROT.
I've only watched a few of your videos, but I have to say that your discussions of the conceptual aspects of photography - instead of literal 'rules' - is quite refreshing.
love the funky intro!
