Why I Stopped Posting Landscape Photography Videos on YouTube
In May 2022, I stopped posting landscape photography videos on CZcams. After a break of more than a year, I am now ready to reveal the reason why.
Filmed on location on Melmerby Low Scar in the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, I take the opportunity to explain why I stopped creating landscape photography videos for CZcams and what has changed in the last year and a half.
Join me as I share the challenges I have faced in the last 18 months and the new ones I now must overcome as I attempt to photograph a new area.
To read my honest appraisal of the photo that I captured on Melmerby Low Scar, check out this blog post on my website.

Why Landscape Photographers must be Flexible
zhlédnutí 5KPřed 2 lety
Success in landscape photography so often comes down to our ability to match a location to the conditions. A bit of careful planning can significantly increase our chances of being in the right place at the right time. But with so much dependent upon the weather, sometimes things just don’t go to plan. Planning is an important part of landscape photography. However, we have to be flexible enoug...
Woodland Photography - A Valuable Lesson for All Landscape Photographers
zhlédnutí 9KPřed 2 lety
This week I have been photographing the woods at Brandelhow and Manesty overlooking Derwent Water in the northern Lake District. I learnt a very valuable lesson about woodland photography that I think all landscape photographers need to hear. I have always struggled with woodland photography. For many years it has been my nemisis. But for the past 12 months I have been working hard to improve m...
Canon EOS M50 + Canon EF-S Lenses | The Perfect Pair?
zhlédnutí 30KPřed 2 lety
The Canon EOS M50 is extremely popular with video creators, but I believe that it is hugely underrated as a stills camera. This is in part at least due to the limited line-up of Canon EF-M lenses. In this video I experiment using my M50 with 2 of Canon's EF-S lenses, on loan from mpb.com. Could this be a perfect pairing? MPB is an online platform where photographers and videographers can buy an...
A Different Approach to Landscape Photography

Are you bored with landscape photography? Tired of the same old approach extolled by the tripod & filter brigade?* In this video, I share a different approach to landscape photography.

Along the way, I attempt to capture images that help tell t...

Landscape Photography without a Plan
zhlédnutí 4,1KPřed 2 lety
As the saying goes, "fail to prepare, prepare to fail". When it comes to landscape photography, careful planning dramatically increases your chances of success, at least in my experience. When I am out with my camera, at least 90% of the time I know exactly what I am going to shoot. This approach has helped me to build a portfolio of images that I am proud of. However, as my photography has imp...
Is the NiSi Ture Color Variable ND Filter Really Colour Neutral?

History & Culture - Photographing a Lake District Village
zhlédnutí 4,4KPřed 2 lety
I have been photographing the Lake District for many years, and in that time I have learnt that the more we know about our subject, the better our photographs are. In order to produce our best work, it helps to emerse ourselves in the history and culture of an area. So, in this video I spend some time exploring the village of Dacre, learning about its church, castle and the Dalemain Estate. #Ph...
I Stole Everything from Other Landscape Photographers
zhlédnutí 7KPřed 2 lety
Landscape photography is difficult skill to master, so it stands to reason that the best people to learn from are those that have already mastered it! In this video I share how I have built my approach to photogaphy by stealing ideas from the landscape photographers that I look up to. But is it really stealing? Artists have been stealing from each other for centuries - except they don't think o...

An Important Lesson That All Landscape Photographers Must Learn

Success in landscape photography is so often a case of being in the right place at the right time, but planning will only get you so far. And what should you do if things do not go your way? I was recently at Derwentwater in the Lake District National Park and despite carefull planning, things did not pan out as I would have liked. Would I return home empty handed, or would a change of approach...
I Forgot the MOST Important Thing in Landscape Photography
zhlédnutí 7KPřed 2 lety
Landscape photography is a serious business. It takes a lot of work to produce high-quality images and years of dedication to master our craft. But if we are not careful, we run the risk of losing touch with what drew us to photography in the first place. In this video I address one of the mistakes that I have made recently. I spend a morning hiking up Wren Crag near St John's in the Vale in th...

Sorry to hear of your health problems. I hope you have a good recovery. I am sure there are many like myself that will miss you. You must do what is best for you we all understand. If that meant not returning to CZcams that is unfortunate but just take care. We all understand.
How do you move photos in between texts? I am struggling to find that
Do I need to sync an album first? Can’t this be done from the local album?
Found the video today, sadly your website doesn’t exist anymore?
Hi Chris, can you add something to the portfolio to sell photography?
Your channel is a ray of sunshine on the internet.
Hi, do you have a link to the eye piece that blocks the viewfinder? Thx.
Great tutorial, this was very helpful. Thanks for sharing.
very well done mister. So simple and straight forward
It's been 7 months and not another video from you. I hope this comment finds you well, or at least better.
I have seen so many videos of people talking about lockdown and how they couldn’t take pictures. What an absolute horror… the fact that people were made aware I believe this was necessary is so sad
Wheres the follow up Chris? Enjoyed this but would like to progress
Why is the camera in your bag? When I’m out walking my camera is always in my hand.
Great video tutorial to get me started! Thanks, Chris.
This and other videos never show us beginners how to use these filters step by step and how to adjust your camera before you take the shot its so frustrating.I havent a clue how to set up
Great video, i love the way its presented and edited. Cool rhythm also, slow and cool
CZcams and Social Media is a cesspool and cancer is ugly too (I had my own head and neck cancer in 2018/2019). However, life is arguably about the search for beauty, and photography offers us photographers a path to find that beauty. So to youtube or not, doesn't matter in this search for beauty. BUT, hopefully you still have photography itself in your own quest to find love/beauty. Thank you Plato for this insight. Take care Chris.
Thank you for this video! How much of this footage you used using the kit lens may I ask? I use the kit lens, Canon 22mm, & the Canon 50mm nifty fifty, with Viltrox adaptor and will continue to do so for awhile.📸
I am using LightRoom Classic. I have figured out how to make a photo collection. However, I cannot see how to sync that with the Adobe cloud storage. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!
Great video and agree im an artist and people always ask about equipment i tell them to practice with what they have
M50 Mark II este super .Prima camera a fost un canon 4000 D , pe care il folosesc cu drag , apoi pt filmari pe you tube am achizitionat un canon M 50 II cu obiectiv 15-45 , dar simteam ca am prea putin asa ca am cumparat un obiectiv macro pt M 22 mm ,apoi un adaptor canon EF S - M , apoi obiectivul EF-S 10-18 mm , EF S 24 mm, EF 50 mm , iar Sigma 28-70 mm vintage pt canon l-am primit cadou , pt zoom sunt pt un Sigma 18-250 foarte accesibil pe Amazon . Este o pasiune foarte frumoasa pt timpul liber , costisitoare , dar cu multe satisfactii personale . Cel mai recent aparat este canon R 10 cu 18-45 mm pt filmari din mai multe unghiuri si astept de pe Amazon adaptorul EF-R , sper sa invat cat mai multe despre fotografie si filmari , pt sunet folosesc un microfon Wavo joby foarte calitativ la fel ca si Rode . I curand vreau sa achizitionez pt sunet la distanta un lavalier simplu sau dublu Rode , dar urmeaza , pacat ca obiectivele canon M nu pot fi folosite si pe alte monturi , dar gasim alte variante .
All the best Chris.
Lovely to see you back, although I'm very sorry to hear what you've been through. All the very best for the future and I hope to see you back, with full health, soon
Nice to see you again - Have missed you! And, I respect your privacy. Hoping your strength returns and maybe more videos…
I would like to get the Nisi Vario 1-5 for my Fujifilm 20 aps-c, I have a doubt since I will get the Fuji 67 mm vario and will I buy a step up? Since the camera is an APS-C, this filter is fine, I can't find any information about it? Do you recommend purchasing two Vario filters for the different diameters or just the 67 mm one
You've been missed!
Oh my! CZcams didn’t tell me you’d posted. So glad I spotted this. It’s an absolute delight to see a video from you again and I completely understand what you’re going through right now. It was your channel that got me back into photography. So you will always have my gratitude for that. Even though I no longer do a great deal of landscape photography and have moved on to taking pictures of people. Your channel will always have a place in my heart. Thank you again.
Lovely challenge
Love the quote from Michael Kenna, so true. Great video, thx for sharing, so inspiring 🙏
Really nice to see you again Chris, I wish you a full and quick recovery, and please don't feel obliged to deliver to the " social media & algorithm machine" . We're here for you, Chris, cheers mate, from the other side of the pond, Sorin.
Hurrah, you're back! Looking forward to seeing more and maybe some of that Tom fella again in the future. He's very funny.
I'm happy to see you again. With all that had gone on in your life, the reason behind your hiatus is perfectly understandable. If you decide to make CZcams videos again more regularly, I'll be glad to see them; though, your physical health and emotional well-being are more important. Take care!
Thank you so much for sharing Chris. Take care and take things at your own pace. You have been missed! Get well soon,
Hi Chris, Hello from the Central Valley of California. Sorry to hear about your health and that it has taken you away from your CZcams channel which I really enjoy. Wishing you a full recovery and happiness for you and your family. D Allen Smith
I wish you hadn't tried to do it in 5 min, I'd rather a little more time and explanation. I'm finding these website makers don't allow me to show my photos as I took them, they keep cropping them to fit the mold. I should be able to adjust that myself, if I want.
Take care, take your time.
Chris, it's great to see you back on youtube. I totally understand your reluctance to commit to social media, but please know that your videos bring a lot of pleasure to many photographers. Your down to earth manner and straightforward style are exactly what I look for in CZcams videos. Stay Well!
Hi Chris, good to see you. I wish you all the best. Best Regards from Germany
Hope you continue with your recovery Chris all the best wishes mate.
do you need the adapter to put a 10-18 on a canon eon m50
Missed your useful videos. Wishing you all the best. There will be light at the end of the tunnel. Patience, rest and plenty of the great outdoors .
CZcams is definitely an uphill struggle at the start mate but you have more than broke the back of establishing your channel and it would be an absolute shame to walk away. When I look back on my life I regret letting other people impact my life in negative ways, today I just delete these people from my life and focus on my own journey and those who are with me and support me on it. Thank you for opening up and for getting this video out, it wasn’t an easy video for you to make but you did an amazing job all things considered. I am a Christian and I believe in the power of prayer so I just want you to know that I am behind you and will be praying for you. Take care my friend.
Sorry to hear of your "troubles" but I'm glad, CZcams or not, that you're up and at it (whatever it is) again. Cheers and best wishes from Canada
Good for you Chris! Glad to see you again! I've missed your perspective, so look forward to future.
Good luck my man. Yes, I was wondering why you were absent. One day at a time. Live for the moment. That's where I'm at.
What a pleasant surprise I had today when I found out you had returned to utube. You have been missed in my household.. I have some idea of what you have been through as I had cancer surgery a number of years ago. Anyways, take care for now and stay strong, getting out in the field will definitely help with any anxiety you have. All the best from Newfoundland, Canada.
