Love the format. I'm new to photography.why did you focus on the street sign as opposed to somewhere else? Thanks
These are great, please continue
Really great format for this video!
This one is perfect
More understanding why you chose settings is the kind of learning we all need.
Thank you!
And keep the teaching coming.

Amazing how easily you explained those concepts in a way that's not 'dumming it down' but just in a way that is so understandable! Thank you!
Yes, please keep the "Behind the Image" going. It is very helpful. Thank you for explaining things so clearly. This is such a good way to learn for me. Thanks again.
How on earth was f/30 managed hand held… It being a full frame camera helped? I have a crop sensor and anything less than f/100 looks bad…
All this stuff goes out the window if I'm taking landscape photos, and a deer or eagle shows up. That's why I just keep it on auto. Lol.
Yes, yes! This is fantastic to learn about your approach and process. Interesting and educational.
This is really useful and would definitely love to see more! Thank you, your instruction is so easy to follow
Hi Paul, what about negative space? We know that negative space must be avoided. But this picture just looks great. How you decided to go with the negative space?
Love the behind the image videos. Both images you have shown here are fantastic.
Great video. Re the portrait. You changed ISO to balance the exposure. Would exposure compensation have achieved the same effect?
Best tutorials!!!!
Thank you sir!!!! Love your video every video you made!!! Cheers!!!! Form italy❤️❤️❤️
More videos like this please! This was very helpful! Thank you so much!
Hi Paul Your 'behind the shot' tutorial is very informative. Watching you explain your thought process as you prepare to take the photograph is very very helpful. More please.
Thank you so much! Great format and insight to the thought process.
Yes please do more along these lines, In everything you learn it's about the How and the Why both are necessary, thanks keep up the great channel ………
Great video Paul. I'd love to watch more of Behind the shot" videos. Thanks
