For those who missed out on Ernst Haas's Color Correction, I can strongly recommend the recently released 'New York in Color 1952 - 1962' by Prestel. Beautiful work, and perfect to enjoy with some black coffee and some Brubeck, Art Blakey and Davis on the speakers.

I'm a member of a forum (FADU) that has a picture exchange. It is run once a month most of the year except Christmas and summer holiday time. When it is extended to two months this allows members to take part , giving them time to do all the other stuff as well. I will add that all the exchange prints have to be produced in the darkroom. So your idea of monthly for your assignment is inspired.

YES to the monthly schedule. I think all the analog guys will love monthly photo assignments. I also believe that making them monthly will help all of us come up with better ideas before we actually go out and shoot!

I had to stop in the middle of this video episode to thank you for this content you have been so faithfully presenting us. I have gone from an occasional viewer to a “hooked” viewer in a short amount of time. I love the look and discussion of gear but what this show has that no other show brings us ( along with a knowledgeable and genuine person as a host!) is this discussion of “the art of photography “, thank you so much for being an oasis in the world of photography techland.

Happy new year and congrats on the anniversary! I often see your assignments and want to get involved, but get pulled away by something, so monthly would make it easier for me to participate. Also, I often can think of a shot I already have that would fit a category. I know you want to make it about getting out and shooting, but I wonder if it might be worthwhile allowing older shots to be included somehow. Perhaps a separate category?

Hello Ted. I'm a new subscriber. I've been doing photography for a little longer than you've been doing youtube videos, but have only just started tapping into youtube for inspiration which makes me quite late to this particular party but it seems to still be in full swing. I'd like to join in with the assignments and monthly sounds like a nice schedule as I'm currently studying for a Masters but within each month I should be able to find enough time. I love that you still do letters so I will try and send you one this week and introduce myself if nothing else. Congratulations on the big milestone, I look forward to this next year, your eleventh.

You run one of, if not my most, favorite photography channel on youtube, but I would like to see more of your videos in following categories (sorted in order) on a regular and more constant and for us consumers known schedule, maybe every 5 days one ;-) Categories 1. History of photography 2. Photo Assignments 3. Artists / Books presentations 4. Styles / Types of photography 5. Some gear reviews / tips and tricks for editing 6. Trips to exhibitions / Travel I can only imagine that each episode is a lot of work for you, but just take this as some kind of feedback / wishlist from me. Keep up your excelent work. Greetings from Hamburg/Germany

Congrats on your tenth year! I agree that once a month is good. It gives more time to think about and plan a photo. I think an assignment in January would be nice... perhaps a choose your own assignment. We can choose an assignment from the past and either redo to make better or a completely new one that was enjoyable to create.
