Where do you want to take urban landscapes?
Thank you your images / photos wow thank you for your tips and suggestions.
To a different view instead of a better view.
Thanks Phil, that 5 minute video was more helpful, and inspirational, than most 30 minute ones on the subject. Thanks for sharing.
Great tips from master Phil Penman!!!
Outstanding ! Thanks Phil and B&H.
Love the tips. I will use them all.
Your photos are extraordinary! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you, the best tips I have heard in a long time! Great pictures, very impressive!
Great Video, and lovely work. Would love to see more from Phil.
Thank you Phil !! You’re absolutely brilliant!!
Good tips, incredible images!
Some of the best tips in the most concise video. 🎉
- Very effective, simple, BUT "easy to miss" - tips! Individually applied, this photographer's views are really helpful. America seems to be the "cradle" of Modern Arts. Top seed, so Thank You! -
Great tips Phil! Love your images.
What you say is so logical. Thank you.
Now that's proper advice people should use
Learned some new tips. Thanks, Phil!
Glad you learned something new, thanks for watching!
Love your work!

Phil is brilliant. His 9/11 images will be displayed long after we are all gone. He also destroys all cliches, shooting wide and using mid-range telephotos.
Never seen them, I don’t think. Are they online or in the Smithsonian, etc. ?
They are in the Library of Congress, probably find them online too.
Tip #6. Put black tape over your camera branding, so they won't snatch it away!
Anyone who hasn't already, check out his current book! Instant classic.
Can't agree on Jackson Pollock, but absolutely agree that painters and cinematographers are great tools for learning composition.
Not sure about 2 of the pieces of advice you gave there, Phil. Two of the biggest challenges my students have at my street photography workshops are #1 they take street shots from way too far and end up having to crop down to a tiny portion of the original frame. So I actually prefer to teach them to fill the frame as much as possible so they can really focus on composition and even after that, they still struggle with getting close enough. The second thing they struggle with most is that they are paralyzed by the number of lenses and camera bodies they have. Not just the weight although that’s a problem too. The best advice I can give them is to start with one camera one lens. Learn that combo really well and maybe you can start learning another lens. But telling them to bring multiple lenses on a street shoot is a recipe for disaster in my experience. You need to be way more experienced with each individual lens than 99% of amateur photographers actually are to be able to take advantage of multiple focal lengths.
I understood Phil was encouraging moving yourself rather than relying on cropping. Also, I think he was giving advice to all of us, not just beginners.
The concept of compressing the background by using a telephoto is a great one to learn as a beginner. Yes, learning with one lens might be valuable, but part of the value is discovering its limitations.
Thank you. I tried to make a comment on the Porsche video but wasn’t able to. That was a great video too! Thank you very much.
!!
Thank you for such an informative video. Your best advice for me is " Learn how to SEE a scene with DIFFERENT LENSES before picking up your camera." Wow! It's so effective. I've NEVER HEARD of it BEFORE. The BEST thing is I can APPLY THESE to ANY PHOTOGRAPHY GENRE, not only to street photography. What an EXCELLENT job!
Enjoyed
Not sure about Jackson Pollack, but I like the suggestion to study composition by artists of different media.
One thing we can learn about Jackson Pollock is photographing repeat patterns in details in a street, e.g. the pattern of pealing paint on a wall, or ripped posters with layers of different posters and a minimalist approach to subject. Also the colours and textures in a street. Admittedly it is a bit harder to learn from Jackson Pollick
For street photography.
You made me think of digging out my 90 and 135 which I almost never use on my monochroms. Thanks for that and your friendship.❤
Brilliant Information. 👌👌👌
Thanks for watching!
Really solid advice and some super shots too. I agree about looking at great work from painters, as well as photographers. It trains your brain to recognise pleasing structures/geometry (but please no Jackson Pollock lol No structure/design in his paintings).
Excellent video
Thanks for watching!
oo
Phil, thanks for some good tips - but why are you using such a heavy camera body with a poor AF?
The same sensor you find in Sony A7RV and Sony a7CR and both cams have a modern AF with exzellent EyeAF and Real Time Tracking. I make "Street" in Asia and i am using mainly the A7CR. I am German and of course I am proud that Leica is a strong brand, but a lifestyle brand, not a daily working horse.
the success of Phil's body of street photography work suggests he's able to overcome the "disadvantage" of using Leica over Sony
@@DelusionalNYC And what is the sense? A tool should support the photographer, or is photography a challenge und I select a tool with disadvantages to make my life more difficult?
What is the bag Phil is carrying in parts of the video?
Great tip but would be nice when you show his pictures to have a small text description of what type of lens he uses
To be fair the gear list is in the description
Yes, I would love to see his pics. So much of what he says makes sense.
👍🇨🇴
Jackson Pollock as inspiration for photography? huh?
Where's that street he recorded from
That looks like Seaport, around Front St
Learning composition from Jackson Pollock?!?
😂
Not bad it's.. a good Leica camera advertisement 🎉
🥴🥴
Did he say anything about gear? He didn’t. And he uses a Leica, so what. If you just watch and don’t listen, maybe I would agree…
