Another great episode! I'm one of the photographers featured in 'Seen By', thank you for reviewing the zine 😊🙏

I can only imagine what your photography book collection looks like, and I’m seriously jealous of it without even seeing it!

Ted Just to say thank you for reviewing the Seen.By.Zine. As one of the contributors to it I really appreciate your kind words. You don’t realise how a few words can re-energise and invigorate a photographer. Thank you.

Hållplatsen. As a Swede I can see that the pictures were made in Sweden. Beautiful book.

Another man of the cloth with a great photography portfolio was Algimantas Kezys, a Lithuanian-born Jesuit priest based in Chicago. He died 8-10 years ago. Fantastic black and white architectural work, often including the human element. Easy to find his work online. Thanks for featuring Father Samuel Issa in this video. I did not know of him.

Hi Ted, Seriously, as always another great mail time, but I must say I think your photographers and their subjects were exceptional, on this occasion. The camera can only do so much, in the end it comes down to the vision of the one holding the camera !!!

This has absolutely made my day. Seeing an unsung hero of mine featured. Chris Harrison has been a constant source of inspiration to me for over a decade now and he's surrounded by some really interesting local (North East England) photographers there. Very much smitten with the photos in all of these books. Really really love this feature. It's way more immersive seeing them in print than on a phone screen 🙌 Please share more 💜

I love how "make sure you support your colleagues" came out - sounds like a directive from a respected teacher/mentor to a class

Hi Ted, Another great video with a superb selection of books and zines. I'm starting to print my own work and looking at different book/zine options. Is there any chance you could add some info about the printers/suppliers of the books etc that you feature ? You get such a diverse range it would really help to be able to compare suppliers. Thank you for continuing to feature the printed work. It's very motivating

@austinfrey644 5 ай бұрын

I’m not sure if this has been addressed in any of the mail time videos, but I would be interested to hear about different publishers photographers have used to make their books and zines. Information on book and print quality, paper options, cost etc would be helpful and hopefully allow others to create their own published work

Discovered your channel few days ago, i'm loving the videos :) I do have a question, do you guys use blurb to print the books? I really wanna try one by myself in future, thanks!

@Tinderchaff 5 ай бұрын

Depends. Where are you based? If in the US postage should be okay but quality isn't great. I live in the UK and the postage cost as much as the zine I was making. I have a resource I use here in the UK but that might not be helpful for you.

@@Tinderchaff I'm from Spain, buying stuff from UK are not that expensive to be honest, if you can recommend me something i will check it :) thanks in advance

Did the patients in Sierra Leone give their consent to be photographed for the photo book? Or is it suddenly 'art' because the subjects are in far-flung geographies where the artist can get away with disrespecting patient privacy? I'm a loyal fan of good, genuine art (and this channel!), but I get nervous when people start to abuse access and privilege for monetary gain and engagement.

@Potatisem 5 ай бұрын

Usually you're not allowed to roam around a hospital without permission and that usually covers the doctor explaining to the patient what's going on before the photographer starts shooting.

99% of people who think it's "artsy" to shoot video and photographs in black and white are wrong. These black and white shots are lame compared to if they were in color. Of course, it's harder to shoot in color because that adds much more complexity. That's the point. And BTW, a little secret - people don't see in black and white. There is nothing good about B&W unless you are doing a brief flashback to old times. Like heavy metal in music or the overuse of white space in graphic design, there is nothing good about black and white photography. That's a fact.

@b.slocumb7763 5 ай бұрын

Completely disagree. Black and white is timeless. That’s like saying a drawing done in black ink would be better if it was done in colored pencils or colored inks. That’s not true. Color is not always better, it’s just different. Color photos can be way more boring than the same photo in black and white. And if you are going to do street photography in color, it’s often better to use a film that will provide a different quality of color than something with a full range. Nostalgia can really matter to a viewer of art and photography. A basic photo in generic color is very boring. And I think black and white is way more complex than color, and much more enjoyable.

You're just stating your personal preferences as fact.

I can say Frank Sinatra is the greatest performer in human history, trash other performers, and add, "That's a fact." I'd be dead wrong. Calling something a fact doesn't change it being only an opinion based on my own prejudices, arrogance, and biases. Cats are better than dogs. That's a fact. Best wishes from Vermont ❄️

@veivoli 5 ай бұрын

@RyanK-100 Sorry to disabuse you, but that's an opinion - your opinion. Others may or may not share your opinion. And *that's* a fact!

@TheMickeyBloo 5 ай бұрын

The only fact here is how narrow your immature view is. Incredibly shallow minded. You have a seemingly deeply ingrained dislike for black and white, but guess what... that's fine. You do you. To spew out about that narrowbanded view being factual and definitive is distasteful at best. B&W can turn a generic story into a powerful pictorial. More often than not.
