The Ultimate Photography Challenge

- A wise man once said, a good photographer can make great images in their backyard. Today I test that ideology and see whether I'm using good scenery as a photographic crutch to make up for a lack of experimentation and photographic skill.

I accidentally discovered your channel yesterday and just watched one video after another. Today I've signed in to my account to subscribe and to say that the quality of the whole process/production is so ridiculously good in your videos! Alongside with the ideas that are interesting to listen to.
And insta! Such a cool landscape photography!
Wish you to build a strong community of like-minded people :) I'll stick around till you find your audience. Don't give up!
Btw, if you'll ever be in Moscow, will be happy to show you around :)
Artem thank you so much dude, I really appreciate that. I'm so glad you stumbled upon my channel. It's an absolute pleasure to have you here. And Moscow looks epic, I would love to visit one day!
I discovered it today!!!
I'm still a beginner in photography. And I love the content of this guy. I feel inside me a different deep thought with every picture he shows.
I rarely comment on videos but man, your content's quality is so good that I've been binge watching all your videos. Keep it up, You deserve millions of subscribers.
Sindi, thank you. I really appreciate that!
I love this test and this premise. I think it expands to life as well. Like learning to enjoy yourself and go on vacation in your own backyard (literal, city, region).
Thank you Ingrid!
Wow what a great vid. Loved the idea and the execution. The idea almost reminds me of some buddhist principles - finding beauty in the mundane. And the photos came out nicely. You seem to be in better spirits too. It's inspiring me to pick up my camera again, thanks!
Really love all of what you said. Thank you so much!
*picks up tripod* gets me every time
Keep at it, lovely videos. Watched the other about the mju, and perhaps a video idea could be other similar cameras with as impressive results as that one.
Thank you! and I've been thinking about doing something like that. Perhaps I'll move it up the timeline!
Thank you for making these videos. I think you just helped me find a passion that's been in the back of my head. In just a couple videos I've seen of yours I already can see your perspective is something I kinda lost when I was younger. Rectangles are the only way to see the world
11:51 great broll.
amazing video and photos! + awesome backyard and a van
Thank you, Taehan!
very calming. I love it ;)
Thank you so much!
@@Codacolor keep doing if you can 😉
I've been wondering where you've been. Happy to see a new video.
Been struggling with the consistency and like in general recently but I haven't given up!
@@Codacolor well no pressure from me. Create and make when you can. We will be here!!
If only i had the same backyard( Awesome content and photos btw
Cody what camera and lens was this video shot on it looks incredible? Love your work keep it up!
Sony A7s III w/ various lenses. mostly sigma 24-70 f2.8 art
This is wild. I just read about Jerry Uelsmann in Atomic Habits the other night and found your channel the next day. Love your energy.
Sounds like it was meant to be! That's a great book as well. Thanks so much for watching!
thanks for another inspiration, and the starving puppy is so cute..
Haha thank you Ryan!
Quality content 👌
Thanks, Ahmed!
HE'S BACK BABY
There he is!!
I'm still waiting here for your channel to blow up tho! The content you deliver is solid AF! Anyway, great video bud!
One day! Thank you for your faith and encouragement. It does not go unappreciated!
I’ve been shooting the little bonsai tree on my girlfriends window counter more than I can count.
What would you consider to be the best camera for learning photography, with a small budget, like new price maximum 500/600 euro's? 😊
For digital, I'm a fan of anything in the Sony A6000 series. I've had my A6300 for over 5 years and it's still performing flawlessly. If you're thinking film, I would say pretty much any manual SLR (Canon AE1, Pentax K1000, etc), though I can't recommend any of those from experience. The EOS 3 is the one I used in this video and it's one of my favorite cameras of all time. Either way, film or digital, you can definitely afford a great camera and a lens with that budget.
Whichever you chose, I would also pick up a copy of Brian Petersen's book Understanding Exposure. It's a quick easy read that's full of photos and describes the concept of the exposure triangle, which is fundamental knowledge for any photographer. Hope this helps!
@@Codacolor thank you so much!!!
Which Camera for Filming are you using looks very nice and your photos too :)
Thank you! I shoot my videos on a Sony A7S III
@@Codacolor Nice :)
Not to be cynical but I expected a normal person's backyard for this challenge.
lets see some of therm kiddie videos!!!!
They're on a hard drive that I need to get repaired!!
A true great Photographer would see beauty even in your back yard, if you look at it with a different mind set Cody, I myself sometimes when I go out side my place early in the morning i see beauty which I would have missed, same goes late at night nature has a way of showing us the beauty of our world even in our back yard my friend, anyway till next time, like always say ( live free or die trying ) ;)
Thank you Nondis
you are like the Glenn Villeneuve of photography
not really sure who he is but I'll take it as a compliment. thank you!
The videos is better than the photos...
Of course he does slack-lining.
Does ≠ succeeds at
Generic advice leads to generic results
Couldn't agree more man.
