Excellent stuff. I'm also stunned how comfortable you are presenting, especially without a written script. That's an art form in itself.

Agreed. The guy is trying to express himself and in the process is putting high quality stuff on the table. He's not being dodgy, or sneaky trying to push things like other photograhpers in youtube. He's quite open and clean about it. I really don't get these people winning for everything.

simply outstanding. lately I've been working around the idea of space and scale, both inside the image and as relates to the actual physical size of the piece, and how much they actually change the dynamics of line. you've given me a lot to think about.

It’s fascinating but really making me feel dumb. Understanding why the lines are a major aspect of the composition is not intuitive to me but I am proceeding in faith that these concepts will start to sink in as I watch, learn, and practice. This videos helps a bit with the “Why” question!

Oh yes, heaven forbid he advertises something subtly for 20 seconds and receives even a modicom of remuneration for his efforts in making this series of inspiring and informative videos, for which he doesn't charge a penny. He also didn't need to go to the trouble of negotiating a discount code for us all to use if we so desire. I think given the circumstances a positive comment and some understanding would be more appropriate than niggling at the man for the most minor inconvenience imaginable.

Sugimotos Waterhorizon has also a dynamic in it because of the diagonal flaoting waves. That really makes the difference. Everybody has done pictures standing at the waterfront, the waves coming to the beach - no dynamic unless there are spectacular big waves. But this way the horizon makes the calmnes, but the waves make the difference.

I'm asking myself this question quite often as well. I'm prone to get my images as clean as possible, which helps me to get rid of distraction and focus on the subject. On the other hand, when I look at some work of other photographers I often find their composition realy strong and intersting, but their photos include little elements that I normally would remove from the photo. And even withouth these small elements removed, I find their compositions stronger and moren interesting than mine.

The Iwo Jima image "is a popular image like by many people." Are you serious? Not a line image just because it has a flagpole, as it would've worked if they were lifting a comrade in arms. The Iwo Jima image is a Sculpture and is world famous, (it took you 6 minutes to start with an image), an iconic image that transcends Nationality, and Photography. The Newman Piano image is not a line image, it's about form. You are obviously very intelligent and educated, a Photographic "expert", but therein lies your fault. I have studied line with some artists at an art center in Pasadena, but I don't see real line work here.You seem to be intense and very hasty with your speech, maybe you shouldn't drink express before these videos. Sometimes less is more. I don't have your skill or education, so please take this criticism with a grain of salt. Yet I wouldn't dismiss it.
