    It's a great photo with quite good planning behind it, if you ignore the backstory:
    it was made on a bridge that is in danger of collapsing and which has clear signs stating that trespassing is forbidden. Now many people try to copy what Mr. Holder did and with some bad luck, the bridge might not be preserved for future generations to see.
    If this had been some unremarkable bridge not landmarked/listed as a heritage site with a "No Trespassing" -Sign on it, I'd say go for it anyway. But since it is listed, this fact – for me – discredits the whole photo.
    If someone (willingly) endangers heritage sites, I don't consider the result to be good, no matter how technically and aesthetically pleasing it might be.

    Amazing channel! I'm just starting with photography, and I have a question: how you make so colorful photos? Is it possible with non-professional cameras?

  13. KoalaLumpUhr says

    It is easy to become famous and rich. So many ways…Just take MS Word, write a book that everyone likes and from which Hollywood movies are then made.
    That's my simple tutorial 😉

  14. JayKay Captures says

  16. Bilal Green says

    This is exactly if i made a video with the title: "How to win olympic swimming contest" then i showed you Michael Phelps telling the story of how he prepared for the last olympic contest, then told you at the end of the video : now go and win your own.

  17. Marko Polo says

  21. Xain Sheikh says

    So I have to clean a lake to win a contest!
    That's what I got from the caption of this video, otherwise, it's all about hardwork, prospective and framing.

  22. Fede Veltri says

  33. Pearl Chen says

    This was great. It highlights the importance of all the planning and prep work you need to do waaaay before you even press the shutter button, instead of just settling for what's already there.
