Day 2 of my landscape photography trip, day 1 on the beautiful Isle of Harris. It was a rough day, I was tired and feeling unwell, but for now the weather held. I exposed 2 images on this day, the first of which I am more happy with than the second. Enjoy.

  3. Nothing chaotic about dunes at all. They are actually standing still and sweep beautifully and calm across the shoreline. It was your emotions that was in a chaos, and that's it. The good thing about photography is that if you actually follow through, no matter how bad a day you're having – You can ALWAYS find the good AFTERWORDS, because you actually took that photo. Two of my personal best photos was taken on a day I felt like shit, and all I really could think of was my pillow back home. So my advice is simply to follow through no matter how bad you are feeling, because if you do, that can contribute to heal whatever you are struggling with.
    Your final images was very good to be honest, and you did right by turning them into B&W. You're a strong photographer AND individual, because you did deliver and you did follow through.

  8. I had a simple but profound revelation watching this video. It has been in my subconscious watching all your previous videos, but for some reason it became clear watching this one: a stunning, sublime view/environment does not automatically mean there is a stunning, sublime image to be had. good to know.

  10. Great video, could anyone tell me which song is played at around 2:45? Shazam seems to fuck up every time…I appreciate your kind help. (doesn´t match with the published description by Thomas) Many thanks to all of you!

  12. Hi, I'm a 71-year-old newby who has started taking landscape photos recently as a way of making me get out and walk. I've recently discovered your feed which is both entertaining and informative, even if some of the technical stuff sends me scampering back to digital photography for dummies. Most of it is local to where I live – we are fortunate to have a river, canal, woodland and moorland. (But some way from the sea)
    I wondered if you had made a video about people in landscape. I've recently been photographing a stile and by chance on one visit captured two walkers in the mid distance walking up the hill towards it and it gave it much more context. Looking through the hundreds of pictures I've taken – quantity rather than quality I'm afraid so far – I notice that there are few people in them and wondered if you had any thoughts on the pros and cons..

  13. I completely disagree that skill isn't that important. Skill is everything. Forget astrophotography, time lapse photography, etc., etc., etc. if you just put your camera on auto. That's a bizarre thing to say.

    The natural skill for the photographer is knowing what and how to get composition…. If you have the eye that's half the battle, but skill is essential.

  20. Loved the vids man, but make sure your panning shots are done in 24fps – 30fps and converting just makes it jagged and jumpy. (not that I know what im doing at all, but noticed it in your vid!)

  22. Alternatively, be careful where you walk before you find and capture your own photo, then walk where you want. Photography is about finding the shot and there will almost always be problems, man made or otherwise, you need to work around to get what you want. So there's absolutely zero point worrying about what another photographer with a different idea of what works is going to be affected by.

    That said, if someone has set up… don't go and set up your own kit 15 meters directly in front of their camera. That's just rude!

  24. I love your videos, it essentially captures the reason I went into photography as a hobby. travel, see the beauty of nature and capture beautiful sceneries. I don't care to make money out of it, nor do I plan to but your videos capture the other side of 9 to 5. job. just ordered a tripod, and Lee filter system for tamron 15-30mm.

  32. What kind of shutter speed did you use in the final image? I noticed a lot of wind in your video. And light isn't that strong when you're nearing sunset. I'm always fighting blurred trees and grass in those situations.

  39. Just subscribed recently. I've been enjoying your videos. You remind me of "Survivorman" Les Stroud who goes out into the wilderness alone with a few cameras and sets up all his segue shots. How do you record your voice? I am assuming you have a lavalier mic hidden in your jacket and that's connected remotely to your video camera or in your jacket and you mix the voice an video together later.

  49. After one of those weeks at work, a 14 min video like this is perfect chillout material. I honestly think if you had a tv series with this sort of content it would be hugely popular.
