You are right Markyvitch. None of these films or the concept of them moving into the future would be possible without Jayne's enormous production skill and hard work. She's mostly working in TV again these days but she's still involved. Over 99% of these films were shot by her and she deserves more credit.

"And don't worry if people laugh at you." That is a great (and accurate tip). For years it did worry me until I finally said to hell with it...the result was an immediate improvement in my photos. My family still chirps at me when I take group shots but it's all in fun. They know my results are pretty good.

Thank you for taking the time to say so. Delighted you're using them for your students. Please feel free to share them as much as you like. - Mike

Extremely simple, yet brilliant teaching technique. Thank you from New Jersey, USA.

You, sir, are a great teacher.

In my opinion, this is one of the best tutorial about basics of compositions that i have ever seen. It is so simple, clean but so powerful. You are great teacher. Respect.

This has to be the simplest and most brilliant video I have seen to demonstrate finding the best composition. It is both inspiring and empowering. You are truly gifted Mike! Thanks for sharing your wisdom!!

Mike Browne All of your tutorials are awesome, but I must say this is the one is one of my favorites. Your style of teaching is very straight forward and very easy to understand. I look forward to all of your new uploads. Your time put into these videos is very much appreciated!

You are one of the most interesting and enjoyable teachers.

Thanks for all the information and enthusiasm, Mike. If I ever make it back to England, I owe you a beer.

interesting........... thanks for a nice video tutorial.

Thank you so much for taking the time to say so. I think one of the great things about photography is that we're all learning from each other all the time (me included). Never stop learning new stuff. - Mike

Thank you. composition and light is what most people find hardest to learn - I certainly did.

Supremely helpful. You are an excellent teacher--you cover basic concepts without being condescending and advanced concepts in a way that is simple to understand. This is profoundly more useful than other how-to videos.

Some of the best photography tutorials on You Tube, thank you.

Fan blinking tastic.. Just the sort of useful tutorial I need to help me compose better photographs. Thanks Mike.

Really a good job that you do in teaching photography. thank you

Very thought provoking!

Impressive, really helpful. Thank you so much!

Mike, you have done it again. This is simply the best tutorial on moving around to adjust composition that I have seen. Many thanks

Thank you... Thats really helpful.. You explain everything quite well...

Your tutorials are always great, Mike ! They are packed with useful information, excellent examples, and a pace that is neither too slow nor too fast. IMO this one hits all of those marks and I'd vote it as one of your finest. Many thanks for posting this gem. Slainte !

I like mike browne's video

Thank you - and yes please keep going. Most of the best photographers are the ones who are their own harshest critics. It's what drives us to be better than we are today. But don't be too harsh on yourself either. When you hear yourself saying "That's really quite dull and boring" take a reality check. Is it really that dull and boring? Or is it just not quite what you expected? Are you trying to reach the moon when so far you've only just climbed the stairs? - Mike

Wonderful!! Taught me to see things differently!! Wow!! BIG Thanks!!

Extremely useful and beneficial ! Thank you

Thank you for your kind words. Please help us keep making these films by Liking them on Facebook and Google + and sharing them with everyone. best wishes.. Mike

Muchas gracias Mike! Saludos desde Perú

Love your videos, great information for me as a beginner in a great hobby! Thanks!

excellent excellent excellent ! would like to see more vidoe's just like this. Thank you

Thank you for sharing these very helpful videos. You clearly have a great eye for photography, and I appreciate that your videos are well-prepared, to the point, and encouraging instead of intimidating. The only problem is that, as I'm learning and trying to compose shots, I keep hearing in my head, "That's really quite dull and boring. That's just rubbish." But I'm going to keep practicing until I don't hear that anymore. =)

You are brilliant!!! Very very informative.

That's great news, Thank you.

Great video Mike, I really like these lesson type video, especially with composition. As I'm one of those photographers who aren't very artistic. So I struggle with composition quite often.

Best composition video

i would love to spendt a weekend with you learning i've always been that guy in school there wasent focused and wasent listing but there is something about you there just makes makes me want to learn more. thanks for a great channel and looking forward for more videos Best Regards Peter Denmark

Thank you - Mike

I really LOVE your videos! Very unique and very informative.

also same goes with your question " question could you do a film on landscapes"you can do the same thing, but you can search in the word on the search box as"Photography Composition finding the picture"and Foreground For Better Composition " part 1 and 2, hope these helps :)

This was an EXCELLENT example. When someone is patient, you can be surprised by what you're able to achieve and see by moving around as you work out just what picture you want.

I agree that the elements included in the final composition were better, but the car itself looked better from the earlier angle, looking down on it.

Love it! Thank you!

Thank you, keep up the good work:-)

Thank you

love the vids. very instructive. keep up the great work

Thank you..

To be fair you have had enough praise :-) Well Done Jayne (sorry if spelt wrong) for all your hard work swell.

Thank you:)

Thanks. You could probably teach any topic you were interested in.

"Get out there and play with it, and don't worry if people laugh at you." Hmmmm KINKY! very good videos, subscribed today after just 1 video (shooting interiors)

Thank you, why don't you check out our workshops and maybe we will see you there?

Thank you so much!

wow. I never thought of it that way

Pleasure:-)

The main purpose of this video I am sure was simply to illustrate composition and what can be acheived by moving one self AND the camera around.

Brilliant example thank you)

I quite like the composition of this pictures with the tree coming out of the hood of the car. From that point on, it was a bit boring.

Ahh - thanks Ionut.

Mike yes me again, well ive watched enjoyed a more importantly i learned simple tricks and techniques that has changed 30 yrs of snaps to 6 mths of photos that i am proud to display enter comps and yes even the old accolade, could i ask you to explain why and how you would use if needed a light meter ? we are off to New Zealand and i want to come back with memories and photos not snaps Thank you again

Omg ! Thank you thank you thank you (y)

Mike 😀🚗🎥👩 👍

Hi kevin! , Mike has videos that might help you, you can find it by clicking his name or click his name below this video,and it will redirect you to his channel,once you're there, you'll see a search box( search channel) and you may then type this keywords: "How To Use A Light Meter part 1 "and part 2" ( it divided to two vids) then you'll see thumbnails with title of videos,just look for the same title you put on the search box, :)

It's so rudimentary, i should really take more time, and pay attention. (tripod to the rescue) :)

:-)

superb tutorial. thanks again.

My pleasure:)
