You're Missing What Josef Koudelka Saw

📘 If you're interested in the ideas discussed in this video, my guide What Makes an Image Memorable? explores why some photos stay with us for years while others are forgotten almost instantly: https://tatianahopper.io/what-makes-a... Most photographers think stronger photographs come from showing more. More information, more clarity, more explanation. But Josef Koudelka's photographs often work in the opposite way. In this video, we explore what makes Koudelka's images so powerful and why concepts like distance, ambiguity, light, tension and withholding information can create photographs that stay with us long after we've seen them. Along the way we'll look at examples from Josef Koudelka's newest book 'Diaries' and a few images from 'Exiles' to discuss practical ways you can apply these ideas to your own photography. If you've ever felt like your photographs are technically correct but flat, this video may change the way you see photography. You might not be doing something wrong, it might a question of perspective.
