"Ooooo... Look at that!" Your pure joy in making pictures has got to be a big part of why I relate to your photos so much. Keep it up, Willem!

[wysrthvnu]

I really like the fact that you almost exclusively shoot with your mamiya. That really keeps the focus on the images and the art

[grainydaysss]

That rz67 has got me feeling all sorts of ways

[bigmark]

Honestly you should do an episode where you only shoot rocks 😂😂

Today I learned portra 800+1 looks like Gold 200😂
Great content as always, my man. Thanks for making it.

I only came here that lettuce photo...deeply disappointed :(

[giulias.]

I came at peace with photography when I stopped working as professional (photographer).
Now I shoot, sometimes, in medium format with the Mamiya, and I love it more. 😉
Thank you for sharing the fun Willem!

For film, this all looks too perfect. it amazes me how you get to achieve that look .It's very unique. You need to shoot at least 1000 rolls of portra before even get to that area of expertise. This is super fun to watch.

[asherhuskinson]

That shot at 7:03 was dope! Also, Portra 800 pushed to 3200 actually looks pretty good!

40 years ago I did a lot of night photography. I tried pushing Ektachrome 400 to EI 800 and 1600 and found it very disappointing, with muddy shadows and magenta highlights so a reverted to my usual Kodachrome 25 and a tripod and some very long exposures.

Your videos are so easy to watch, love it 👌🏼

The 2 shots with condensation immediately tell that you're a real artist. Keep it up

[LogiicLucky]

A before and after—of more shots you have taken—would be cool, just to understand what's the look&feel of the original photo and the colorgraded one. Keep up the great work, massively inspiring me and a ton of other people
