Love the new style you've been adding to your latest episodes. I really like this one, it makes you think about photographic (art) movements. An episode on that (maybe a series?) would be excellent. Keep up the great work! Thank you for the show!

Thank you for doing my research for me in 12 minutes. Would have taken me ages to find such awesome photographers!

im glad you are showing true abstract art instead of some one photograpthing rust

Ted. These just keep on getting better and better. I have learned do much and continue to learn more each episode. Thanks!

Absolutely great style of videomaking. Your videos cover all those exact points which the viewers are trying to learn. And therefore they are seeing your video. Very clear and nice explanation with examples of images of other photographers. Thank you.

Great show, can't get enough! I've learned more here then I have in the 30 years of shooting photography.

Thank you! I am concentrating Photography of Fine Art. I haven’t take photos of abstract and this is help a lot...

Been watching your videos for a while. Just now at 12:08AM, June 30th, 2019 it dawned on me. You look like Paul Giamatti! Maybe his long lost brother.

Thank you! So nice to hear ;-) I'm having a ton of fun making these…

Hopefully your saison "Let's talk about..." never ends! Great stuff....and thanks for sharing!

Love your work; very educational and helpful to my rookie brain!

Amazing presentation. It was very well put almost an art in itself!!!

Great overview. Thanks!

Very well done, concise, inspirational and a good primer to various abstract work. Thank you😁:-)

Thank you for this video. Still waiting for your first book... !

Insightful. Thanks for sharing.

Apologies for the off-topic question. Did you have a small part in the recent film 'Lincoln'?

thank you

I enjoyed the presentation, but I would have included some of Paul Strands early work and the work of Carlo Chiarenza. Reuven Azoff

Jaroslav Roesler- read Yaroslav :-)

It seems to me the abstraction in these examples lies on the subjects rather than the photographs themselves in the sense that these subjects didn't really have to be photographed to be abstract; they're inherently pretty abstract already. In my opinion, better examples of abstraction in photography would be the works of photographers such as William Klein, Daido Moriyama and Zdzislaw Beksinski(yes,the painter). The works these photographers made are very photographic through and through(they won't exist without photography). Their works contain the representational nature of photography(their subjects are real people and real objects). But at the same time, they're also very bizarre and ambiguous yet remains very photographic despite all that since they simply won't exist without a camera(and a darkroom).

Sorry for the typos

also look for lester hayes

I think a photo being "abstract" is heavily dependent upon the audiences opinion. Most of the examples given are of rather abstract techniques rather then abstract composition. Not to say that there isn't an element of abstraction in the composition. However, the reason these examples stand out is because the technique used to capture the image is abstract. Which might actually be the meaning behind abstract art. Abstract paintings are created in rather non-traditional techniques...humm?

I'm starting think that by commenting on how I disagree with your assrsment of abstract photography I have realized that e might be on the same page.

Has someone ask me if you're wearing makeup and/or lipstick.

but how?

"Basically" you're good!

hii, i am watching your videos they all are best you did so much effort i guess to do that and m humble suggestion for you is you must show your name on every video so that people can remember you for your good work . :)

In my opinion, a lot of words to say that abstract is non-representational.

1. I don't like the white background. Sorry to be blunt. 2. Thank you for being amazing and cool. 3. This video was awesome and very informative, super useful and I really enjoyed it.

Similar to avant-garde jazz. Very few listened. Play to the masses not the critics.

i love your channel but sometimes i get bored with all the talk about photography that can go on for minutes without hardly any imagery... i guess im inpatient but we're in visual industry and what you do here i wish i would see more / where you show an image and can keep talking but the viewer is looking at something besides you. it might make a stronger connection to the subject you're elaborating on....
