Absolutely true Leon! My biggest point is that contrast is what makes up an image (Without any contrast, an image would just be grey pixels, and have no meaning) - So in that sense, the pros who create better photos than amateurs are simply better at creating and manipulating contrast in different ways that serve the image. But you're right - There is no simple "silver bullet" when it comes to pros vs amateurs. It's all the small things that add up

Exactly what I needed to hear. So many other youtube photographers always try to teach you through telling you how to create a style or look or some expensive preset, but in reality (like this video explains), you don't need some fancy preset or trendy look, all you need to do is create contrast between your subject and the rest of the photo. This video definitely helped me a lot. Thank you very much

The vegetation is not brown in reality, nor are the clouds and tips of the mountains. I see many photos in which reality in colours and contrast is lost due to over-processing in the HSL tab.

You're absolutely correct! Only thing is that Y will actual revert to the last state of the photo, which is not ALWAYS the raw version. Sometimes it is a previous edit.

I'm a photography student, and the color wheel that we're using is different from yours. Purple is opposite to Yellow, Red is opposite to Green and Blue is opposite to Orange. These color combinations are called Complementary. I've seen that color wheel in the video before and I'm confused as of what is it's origin and logic. It wouldn't make sense for Blue to be opposite to Yellow, as they are both main colors, and all the other colors are created from a combination of the three main ones(Blue, Red, Yellow). If Blue were opposite to Yellow, their combination must create black (or white on screens), which it doesn't. Blue and Yellow create green, instead.

There are 3 different kinds of colour spaces. RYB - Red, Yellow, Blue CMYB - Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black RGB Red, Green, Blue RYB is used mainly in paints and pigments, CMYB is mainly used in printing and RGB is used for light. The first two are considered additive because, the more paint or ink you add, the closer to black it becomes. The last is called subtractive because, the more light you add, the closer it comes to pure white. The colour wheel in this video is a combination of CMYB and RGB colour spaces. As a photographer, you should be using the RGB colour space as photography is all about light. Furthermore, digital media is all created with pixels that produce light. You should also be familiar with CMYB because, it is used in the printing process. Sounds like your teacher used to be an art teacher. Hope that clears some of your confusion.

nice video. I usually also apply this tip. See Most of Images don't really need more than 2-3 colors to make sense. By removing or downgrading useless extra color saturation you focus attention on "speaking colors" into your composition. It doesn't need to look like an movie effect, but it certainly helps adding methodology to your workflow to see what happens in extremes, and then identify the key strenghts/weaknesses of your picture and work on it.

Came across your channel and really enjoyed your tutorials. You have a very nice knack of explaining concepts which is amazing. Consider attaching/sharing the pics so that one can practice along while they learn. It will take your teaching to the next level.

That's awesome Pathan - Thanks for your comment! Many of my tutorials DO have files available for practice, but I'll try to include more in the future too.

At last i find someone that has a more original way of analyzing a photos. Even tho I wouldn´t name all of this contrast, this way of seeing stuff is really practical and clear. Thanks for the video

Thanks so much Berni! That's a huge compliment. Yes I get what you mean - The goal of the video was less about technically covering contrast, and more about expanding the way we think about contrast and how we can apply that to more areas than just the contrast slider or tone curve :) Appreciate your comment! 🔥 🔥

Applied this to a photo , and while the photo was nothing to rave about , it definitely improved it because of this tutorial . So while I may be a little late to the party , thank you for this video !

@@SignatureEdits I don't think you have. It's an okay speed for me. It's already a 22 min video, if you slowed down it might get a little dull.

Its all subjective, that last photo of the kissing couple was terrible. I thought she was admiring the plants, I didn't even see the guy. his black coat is like a chameleon camouflage in that background.

100% agree - Art is definitely subjective, and styles and preferences change over time. Fundamentals tend to stay the same, but what is on trend is always changing too. Either way hope the rest was helpful!

Yes, the guy was nearly invisible!!! At least it increased focus on the bride, who should be the main attention.

Thanks Ryan for your pace as I think, pared with playback settings, it meets a lot of different learning speeds. (I’m watching at 2x). Also thanks for enlarging this concept of contrast. I’ve listened to other photographers give talks on composition but I feel your video here easily encapsulates everything I’ve heard succinctly.

"Professional" is fair and only just a legal and administrative status; nothing else.

Great point Didier. Technically the definition of professional could be someone who makes a living off of a profession, or it sometimes refers to people with a specific education background. Ie a doctor is a professional because they have an extensive education and knowledge in the medical field, not necessarily because they work at a clinic or a hospital. So a photographer might be a professional simply by having an extensive education and knowledge in the field of photography. Anyways just semantics. Thanks for your comment my friend! 🔥 🔥

in our world today, the term is used in "contrast" or opposite side of amateurs or noobs, low level. it's like an upgrade. xD pro gamer, ipad pro, macbook pro. windows 10 pro, ps4 pro,... hahaha. xD
