I made this course because I believe studying others photographs is one of the most beneficial things you can do to learn photography. It offers a great amount of insight and inspiration – it’s the closest thing in my mind to replicating the value of a photography degree (the practice of learning through study). This process helped me improve my photography tremendously over the years, and that learning has now be condensed into this super-accessible course.

Alberto Venturini –
I enjoyed this course. It’s easy to follow and explains in a straightforward way some of the key elements that make a great photograph. Particularly, this course helped me think about the purpose and subject of my photos. Maybe some sections felt a bit rushed, but overall, great course.
Fernando Rozenblit –
Lovely course, thank you. The course summarizes well what makes good photographs and demonstrates the principles with beautiful pictures. I only wish there had been more of the “not so great” photos and exercises to practice what we learned.
Mushfiqur Rahman –
This is a course about picture or photography composition. The pictures used in the video are EXTREMELY low resolution.
Also, the instructor could make the slides/video visually appealing and have more enthusiasm in her voice.
Peter Richardson –
Thank you for the insights. I enjoyed your active use of the cursor as a pointer to bring us along with the narrative.
James Bartosch –
This course to me was very “DEEP”. This course makes you think when taking a photograph.
Yuru Deng –
從前只是隨興地看感覺拍拍照片，看了這個課程才了解到那些看起來很棒的照片是棒在哪裡，為什麼很棒。透過課程學習到許多欣賞攝影作品的技巧，對攝影也有了更多新的想法。比較可惜的是沒有中文翻譯，英文字幕可能因為老師口音的關係，所以常有出錯XD 但反正有很多照片支援，聽不懂全部也大概懂老師要講的東西啦。（但我才疏學淺需要搭配查字典就是XDD）
Katharina Kronister –
Many good tips to improve your photography!
Elvy Samuel –
I was expecting more detailed examples and explanations but I think it was a broad amount of subjects to discussed in a compressed time.
Simon James –
Good content and some wonderful images, but I’m finding it off-putting that the video is low-res with many of the images and the drawing tool somewhat pixelated despite watching in 1080p on a high quality display .. This detracts from my appreciation of, what I imagine are, really stunning images.
Looks like it is recorded in low res and upscaled to 1080. … I sound pedandic but really struggling to see past the resolution to the photos many of which look like they really pop or engender an emotional response if they were only presented in a much higher res.
Sarah Creek –
Very interesting and helped in identifying a direction for me to work on. Thank you.
Yogi Last Name –
Excellent concept for all photographers to reflect on how to capture ‘amazing’ moments. Thanks for these insights that will definitely help to take my photography to whole new level. Excellent course for all photographers to enhance & challenge their skills.
Johnathon Walty –
Amazing course! I took this hoping to see examples of different composition techniques. What I got was soo much more. El clearly has a mastery over photographic composition as well as a passion for the subject. I gained so much insight as she walked me through so many photographic examples, explaining different components of great composition. Thank you for putting this together. Highly recommended!
