don't wait to the Elizabeth comes over no everyone get on camera and say what
you found hi guys everyone's out there in YouTube
land I'm currently standing at a crossroads and we're hoping to shoot a
bit a little bit of just Cambodian life you know as it happens you never know
how this is gonna work you can see over my shoulder some big
clouds and it's just beginning to rain so the mischievous little boy in me is
thinking this could be quite good fun catching everyone sort of rushing for
shelter and all that stuff and also we might get a good sunset we don't know on
the other hand we might have to run from a storm I'll just show you well where we
are so as you can see we're on a crossroads here we've got a little road
comes down here one comes around behind me here where our good friend mr. Makara
lives he lives in a house just up here mr. Makar is our go-to tooktook man
lovely lovely lovely guy but we've also more interestingly got this little road
behind me here going off down there and I hope you can see its its potential
because the Sun if we get a sunset will set somewhere kind of over here so it's
a really great location you can see a bit of colour coming into the sky there
already whether it'll work or not we don't know one of the interesting things
we're running the heat workshops is is what happens as the week goes on so we
always try and do a little bit of a you know a talk when we arrive somewhere and
just sort of say you know hey guys this location works well for this or it works
well for that this is a great location for shooting a bit of life we're getting
a little bit of a brief things to watch for but as the confidence grows over the
week everyone scatters like cats you know they're off so some have gone off
down this road here look at that sky isn't that awesome hi hello some have
scattered off down here some are behind me down here just sort of hanging around
under the tree where you can see Simon and some of them are disappeared all the
way back up this road here and you can see this tree
about here this is where we did pretty much the first broadcast with Simon
hello Alan thank you for joining me good the signal is back good because I know
it's a bit dodgy here please tell me if this is a really bad one because in
which case are stopping there's no point doing if he keeps dropping in and out
yeah most of the guys have run back up here but we kind of chose not to go to
that location again this evening as the main location because of this new house
which has only appeared in the last six months or so it kind of spoils the shot
if you go to my website photography courses.biz.
the first photo is of a guy with the Buffalo and the Sun setting and it's
sort of warm and hot and dusty but that white house over my shoulder here wasn't
there in those days speaking of Buffalo there's a thing coming down the road now
see if I can show you you might be able to hear it you see this machine coming
up the road they're called Chinese Buffalo not officially but unofficially
because the made in China and they've taken over hello hi they've taken over
the work of a buffalo and the long handles kind of look like buffalo horns
so they sometimes get called Chinese buffalo which I think is really quite
cool you can see as well just from the reactions to people seeing the filming
things and you know we've been shooting in temples and stuff today how friendly
these people are some was saying about is street photography okay and you know
obviously you can see people are laughing and smiling you know street
photography is the easiest thing in the world
yeah because many people don't mind look at this
Simon where's Simon I don't know he's gone there's a little girl coming down
the street look look at this little girl hi hello I like your heart
nice hat hello hello you a lovely hat is beautiful you want a wave say hello look
have you heard of YouTube hi hi hi thank you for letting me take your photo yeah
Oh Khun alcorn TomTom it's just a cool here you know and can you imagine what
kind of a shot you know something like that would make just catching somebody
walking up the road like that a little kid I think it's gonna be a very long
broadcast morning from Romsey hello Mac 3 music he would just up the road from
me when I'm a course back in sunny England we're probably not to do a great
deal here because this is one of those places you often have to hang around for
a long time for something to happen we don't know if anything is going to
happen I think we got a quad bike tour just coming up the road behind me I'm
not sure I don't wanna keep going on with this if it's not me terribly
interesting but you've got a quad bike tour coming up we usually use quad bikes
to come out here because often it's very muddy we tried to come out here the
other day but we couldn't really do it because
one of the roads was washed out and we missed the sunset and all that stuff so
mr. captain going past but these sorts of locations are really great so you
know I would urge you if you do go somewhere you know talk to a local and
see if you can get to take you out of town and into the city out of the city
sorry and into the countryside and then just hang out at a little crossroads
like this for a while because there's some awesome pictures to be taken I've
just spied Lucy who is a little bit of a Star photographer goin g on here hello
Lucy hello have you got some nice shots
you have a question for me you know go prayer if you like yeah well you know
when you example to people in their photography yes okay so you've got to me
do you mind if I show the guys your photo no hang on that's okay let me I'm
going to turn the camera around for you no it's fine you just zoom in on the
back so here is Lucy's photo so the guy closest he's sharp hmm okay
and the guy further back is not quite so sharp so your question was how do we get
them both shot so aperture can I see aperture on there no we can display the
aperture okay so aperture was 5.6 if you make the aperture just a bit smaller
maybe even if 8 okay depth of field gets a little bit bigger and then you
probably have both sharp but don't make it really really small you know
otherwise yeah otherwise you get too much sharp and you can't have the
background soft you know small square for the focus point yes I would put it
on the first guy to begin with I know it's hard because I think f/8 you
probably just put it on the first guy maybe put it on his shoulder you know
the shoulder that's just slightly further back but really go for the first
guy okay lovely shot Thank You Lucy
it's so funny everyone's really really dig it off the tux up and run
so yeah the tip really for these sorts of places get out into the countryside
and then just hang out wait to see wait to see what was going to happen and guys
if any of you have a question please place them because my shirt so hello my
shirt is just the second way I can get my phone if anyone's got a question
please post it because I'm not going to stay here forever with this sort of
situation because there's no point there's not much action this is often
about waiting we've been here maybe half an hour or more to see what would happen
there's only eight of you there so I'm probably going to stop this one in a
moment I'm sorry eight of you who are here but I don't
think is a great deal of point saving it I was hoping something was going to
happen because the rain was starting to come in people started rushing down the
down down the roads to get you know home to get out of the rain and then the rain
didn't happen earlier on today we were at a temple where there was a festival
going on I didn't have any live connection so I couldn't do a live but I
have got a little short video about 8 minutes long where I just thought you
might like to see some of what was going on some of the action in the tempo it
was a festival where they invite the spirits back into the temple so I will
probably post that later on tonight when we go home we're all very very hot and
very very sweaty but we're going to go and have dinner with our good friend mr.
Makara and his wife she's preparing dinner for us in a house that is over
behind me can you see this this blue place here his house is just behind it
over there he is our go-to tuk tuk man and Simon Taplin has stolen his his
motorbike and he's riding around on it hello everyone did you steal the tuk-tuk
because I hope the tuk tuk so everyone's in different places so I'm
just motoring around and making sure everyone's ok everyone's just scattered
like cats Oh No place and getting great shots it's a
magical place it really is oh I think you can see behind me there's a little
bit of sky sunset action going on sunsets are the domain of waiting
hanging around to see what the weather's going to do see what the lights going to
do there's no point Miki keeping you here online that's will turn into a very
very boring film indeed so you can see how the colour has changed since we got
here and I think you can see the potential over my shoulder for some
really quite nice shots if we get something so if we get some nice shots
and the guys have got some awesome ones we'll post them on the website gallery
at photography courses up is a July so you can see what these guys are shooting
apologies for not having many on there yet it's because we haven't had much
time to do it and some of these guys are really learning their way with their
computers it's other workshops people know really what they're doing these
guys are kind of feeling their way with it a bit so we we we haven't got a great
number of shots there's some there now there will be more in a day or two look
at that just went over my shoulder what a great
shot that would have been you see just stood here facing the other way click
and you've got it that's very kind of you Jeff and Chris Cunningham thank you
they just said we're not I'm not boring you well I'm kind of wondering what on
earth to say that's why I say if anyone has a question there's only 11 of you
live at the moment so it could be a good time to ask one
I just can't really walk around here just sort of see if there's some
different angles when I see if anyone thinks of anything okay well as I said
there's not a great deal to say so sorry if this one's a little boring it's a
little bit dull but I really did think something was gonna kick off anyway take
care thanks to the few of you who've just checked in if anyone's watching
this in the playlist check out the gallery bit later is anyone doing
time-lapse on the workshop good question Alan no as far as I'm aware they're not
at the moment
somebody could it could be done especially in a place like this but it's
suddenly gone quiet so there's not a great deal happening anyway I am gonna
I'm going to check out now and we'll share some of the pictures we get here
with you in the gallery thanks for checking in you guys and I'll catch you
soon take care oh and I'm going to post the video I shot at the temple when I
get back to the hotel later on after we've got back from mr. makaras and I've
had a shower and I'm not quite so smelly see you later
