      Those are some really nice tips and examples, thanks. I always try using depth layering for everything (even landscapes and family pics). A picture without foreground plane often looks somewhat empty to me.
      At 5:50 door also contributes to the concept.

    In the cycle shot the wheels,(Circles) the man is carrying,are echoed too in the circles on the door behind adding another layer 👍

    Famed New York photographer Jay Maisel, said that a great photograph needs three things: light, color, and gesture. Personally I call it a photo with "oomph". You call it the twist. Different names for different folks but we are all talking about the same thing. And no doubt, that elevates an already good picture to the next level. I believe the "Insta-kids" call it a banger.

    The “vigilant eye” photo at 6:30 is great (at least as good as the “be careful of bicycle thieves”), especially since the frowned brow implies some story

    Your thoughts on twist composition are insightful, and your presentation style is both simple and compelling because of the interplay between your commentary and your images. Well done!

    Sage advice. Am a bit “fuzzy” on lack of context (vs. context for story telling). Twist & layering are special moments. Found layering at festival of India event - proud parents were preening their kids in prep for kids dancing on stage; captured same preening activity by two different parents/kids- foreground and background. Fleeting moment.

      The more often you go out and the more you look the more chance you have! I went out for 4 hours yesterday and the day before and didn’t take a single photo. Just the way street photography goes!

      Sorry, got to say this: it's "home in on". "hone" is to sharpen or refine.

    • @timjamiesonphotos
      @timjamiesonphotos  Před 22 dny

      I really hate comments like this, especially when they are wrong. Home in on and hone in on are both acceptable options in the English language.
      hone in on
      phrasal verb
      honed in on; honing in on; hones in on
      US
      : to find and go directly toward (someone or something)
      The missile was honing in on its target.
      -usually used figuratively
      Researchers are honing in on the cause of the disease.
      In the context of this video ‘if there is potential in a scene I’m going to really look and hone in to what’s happening’ is exactly correct and how I intended.

      Anything above f8 gives you enough depth of field to layer images :)
