Yaddi!! we met Yaddi at Abraham Lake, the guy gets around. Herbert lake holds a special place in my heart, it was at this time of year perhaps 3 years ago that we first met. Do you remember Gavin? do you?
Gavin. Hell. I've been taking pictures in all formats since, I dunno, 1966. My Olympic days are over, at least, physically. Some things now are a bit harder to do then it once was. Life happens. This, though, is fact: every time I watch your vlogs (and I watch all of them), you bring a smile to my face. I sense you are truly a solid guy; talented as all hell; charged with a drive to achieve and experience the marrow of life, and now blessed, it seems, with the love of of it. You are a great teacher of your craft; your know your stuff; you are immensity likable and, we, here grateful for what you do. Thumbs up. This post of yours, to me, shines a light upon how specially talented you are. Thank you for sharing you with us. Merci'
Oh, what a fine morning. A good cup of coffee and a fresh episode of the fototripper adventures. You guys were more lucky than me. I ´v been up ridiculous what is good for you early two sunday mornings because of they promised fog but the only fog I saw was from tired, fuzzy eyes.
God, I needed a dose of you today! In the last month I've had to repair my well at 2 grand, had two trees land on the house, and just found out I need a fuel pump at nearly 800 bucks. Not crying, laughing...thank you!!!
I can't even figure out where to start with the video. Hahahahhaha so much funny amongst a bunch of good info, typical fototripper. :) Enjoyed the behind the scenes. Cool technique for the 4x5 conversion...
Your videos are so cool. They are an awesome combination of being hilarious, yet informative with the finishing touch of beautiful compositions. I like the fact that you are doing something different with your channel, it’s refreshing. I am surprised that you don’t have a lot more subscribers. I certainly appreciate the effort you put into your channel, thank you!
Great shot, as always! I wished we had mountains. It’s so difficult to find a beautiful landscape in our country. There is always some windmill sticking it’s nose in your picture. No, just kidding’. ;-) or not. Love Carla (from the Netherlands)
Entertaining as always and what a payoff image, too! This landscape photography vlogging is difficult, I got even more respect after trying it myself. Keep up the great work :)
I haven't commented enough on your films, that is going to change. The. mix of top instruction, tips and comedy is fantastic. Always look forward to watching to see what comedy capers we are in store for. The simple tip of use autofocus is often overlooked. And the word muff can never be overused. Thanks for sharing mate.
Enjoyed the video! The video starting out with your comment about your face was so funny I had to pause the video and go get my husband to watch it with me. We could not stop laughing, hilarious! Thank you for showing us how you turned that beautiful composition from the 3 x 2 to the 4 x 5.
I love the behind the scenes stuff too. That's mostly how I film my videos on location too but I use my iPhone too much....which makes my videos look like I'm using a tripod made of Jello. I'd love to see a behind the scenes of how you edit videos - that shit takes forever.
Patience along with humour (and no end of skill) - result!! Nice rapport with Yazi (sorry if I got your name wrong man) Top entertainment Gav , thankyou
I agree. Just a professional all the way. Hard work, humor, nice to other people(pretends he's tough). Deserves everything he gets. That's my opinion. Oh, and I don't think there could possible be a prettier mtn. range. I've driven through the Canadian Rockies, I need to do it again slower.
Its funny, I was thinking about moving the foreground up in post to eliminate a little of the dead space when you first showed the composition and then you actually end up doing it! 🤯
Love Herbert lake, one of my favorite spots for early morning mist and reflection shots. Always cool to see one of my favorite CZcamsr's standing right where I have also stood!
Hmmm Gavin There is a mistake in your title. It should say "Creepy Landscape Photographer* in Fog" Instead it says Landscape Photography. Just tryin to help you out, another awesome video man! :P
you pretty much read my mind specially when i saw two spider webs earlier before the 16:00 mark and thought he should find a spider web to compliment the shot but should spray the web with a light water mist
Epic shot there Gavin. Those mountains are fantastic. Here, all I have got is a landscape that resembles the outside area where the Teletubbies live. Grassy mounds. Glad to see I’m not the only one who has puffy eyes like a bag of spanners on a 6am shoot. Off up Glastonbury Tor tomorrow to photograph the view and to shoot some hippies and druids, with my camera of course.
I'm watching this whilst sitting in my car drinking coffee waiting for the sun to rise at the beach. It's not happening though ☹️ so glad to at least see some quality photography on here rather than out there.
waiting and waiting paid off.. lovely shot. nice transform to a 4x5 too.. for a moment.. i thought this video was going to turn into a Seinfeld episode like the "Can you spare a square" one with Elaine & the toilet paper lol whew.. so glad you took it in a bit different direction.
Keep Brent around for the content advice. I like seeing how it's all put together. Although Brent needs to record some true b-roll BTS with video of you talking to the camera. I've never used the Osmo but the size/quality balance from the Pocket appears impressive.
Start to finish , absolute muck :-) good bargaining skills for the instant .. loved the banter the whole way thru .. new OSMO pocket 3 out today that has a wireless mic .. I expect to see it in your Arsenal soon !! Great episode pal
Hard rules for business. No discounts & no chocolate! I'm a little jealous of that pano set up. Can't get them anymore. I tried going back to their site about 3-4 times in the last3-4 weeks & am in disbelief. Could probably get-er done with a gimbal set up from some other. Bummer I really like their products which seems to be dwindling.
Hi Gavin: I really liked this video. I liked the comedy relief along with your acknowledge of a Fototripper follower. Well done! Finally, thanks for sharing your tips on making a 4 x 5. Keep Covid-19 safe . . . keep shooting . . . and keep creating! Cheers, Keith (Ontario, Canada)
I think the new Osmo Pocket 2 is the solution for you! It is awesome, I just ordered one today. It has 4 microphones on the camera, even surround sound. Then it also has a wireless microphone with a dead cat to clip on your shirt as an alternative. It even has zoom lens capability. There are so many good features. You will probably start leaving your other DSLR at home.
Stayed glued to my seat the entire video. I'm an educator and you should know there are university trained educators who wish to have your natural ability. Just received my FLM CP38-L4 II Tripod. I'm going with an Acratech panoramic head for longer lenses and a half-ball leveler handle (I agree with Thomas Heaton on the ease of this setup). What half-ball leveler have you used on your FLM, if any? Thanks for sharing your experience and photography insights.
Oh, I thought I saw one with a silver handle on the FLM tripod with the gimbal for photography. No matter. It's just easier for my hands (injured on active duty).
@@fototripper Hey Gavin, of all you record with the second camera is the back of your stills camera and audio, why not just use an Atomos Ninja V recorder and run your mic into that? Then output screen info out the HDMI and capture audio (with better preamps than that camera has). Plus the image we would see isn't another cameras interpretation of what your stills camera looked like, it would be exactly what your stills camera was seeing plus all of the settings. Now you have no second tripod, camera body, camera lens or camera battery to carry, just add the Ninja V to the top of your A7RIV, add the mic to the top of it pointed backwards, and your done :-)
I bought Kicking Horse coffee because of you. I’m a wimpy medium roast drinker, so it’s Three Sisters for me. Another fantastique video, Gavin. You’re one of my faves, but don’t tell Uncle Grumpy. 😉
Great video as always! And just want to say, I have both of the Composition Courses and love them!! And thanks for the photoshop tip. I have to go try that one. :)
Instagram on the john? Used to be the newspaper. I guess modern technology has changed that too, lol. I love your photoshop trick. Thanks for sharing that and I do love the image. I have a question. If you had to do it over again would you have lowered the camera to get a lower perspective to minimize the middle space? Just curious. Thanks for another great video.
Ha very entertaining .....great shot after all. I think I liked the composition and picture before you doctored it up in P S. Where was the Mrs. today? 😬
I use the osmo pocket as well but I got to tell you, I am really excited about the pocket 2. They sell a package with a wireless mic and it already comes with a tripod mount! Can you believe this?
Yaddi!! we met Yaddi at Abraham Lake, the guy gets around. Herbert lake holds a special place in my heart, it was at this time of year perhaps 3 years ago that we first met. Do you remember Gavin? do you?
How could I forget Adam. We locked eyes not far from that very toilet.
I think i got lucky. Both stops were unplanned.
But it was really nice talking to you guys.
Most great friendships are forged in shit tickets
You only met 3 years ago? I always assumed you met years ago. We need a dramatisation of you meeting each other.
But Adam dressed and Gavin and Gavin dress as Adam.

You can tell it's going to be a good vlog when you hear the "I've got a face like..." gags.
Excellent! Particularly the Photoshop tip.

Love the bird in the middle of the road. @7.05.. 😊

Love your hate for Instagram haha

BABOOM!
Not afraid with that burner on the tripod!
That was such a gorgeous shot! Found this video by chance and loved the way you made the whole video
Love ur videos mate. Keeps me entertained 🤣🤘 I'm also a landscape photographer from the uk
Thanks Gav, makes me smile .... :-)
Awww I was hoping you got a GFX system! That last shot was awesome. Good job!
So was I...
How on earth do you transform a bunch of clips of us standing around doing nothing into an entertaining 20 minute video? I don’t know how you do it.
Thanks brother. It’s always a good time. Hi from Canada!
It's a gift mate.
Holy shit! The image you got at around 17 minutes is absolutely stunning. One of my favourites from you! Good job Gavin, have a twirl on me!
Awesome as always Gavin, thanks for sharing.

heheheheh I'd probably get more clicks eh....
Thank God that you already got the shot before explaining us the comp! The scene was disappearing fast! ;-)
The 4x5 was super.patience gets its prize!!!
you pretty much read my mind specially when i saw two spider webs earlier before the 16:00 mark and thought he should find a spider web to compliment the shot but should spray the web with a light water mist
Making coffee on a tripod!!!🤣😂
Am I the only one who's binge-watching all these episodes? :)
Nope, I literally went through and watched every episode throughout the winter. Now I await each episode!
I immediately hit like but at 3:05 I knew I had to subscribe 😂👍
Cool stuff, just knew that spiders web would be making a reappearance as a fg element once you’d teased it via the b roll lol

3x2 to 4x5 was slick trick. I will be giving it a try. Thanks

Nice video Gavin! I like the 4 X 5 conversion. Slick operation, certainly fills the space well !
Wow, so you found the guy that subscribed to your channel and hit the thumb up. What were the odds? :)
Please do a what's in my bag video ? or a backpack tour ? especially accessories, headlight ... etc
awesome picture .
That's awesome, with your appropriate "headware" you match your camera with the dead cat on it :). Great video as usual.
I laughed so hard when you tried to snort the coffee from the pack - I've wanted to do that! :)
Loved Yavvi's shot.
Your's wasn't bad either Gavin !!!
;)

The drive of dedication
Start to finish , absolute muck :-) good bargaining skills for the instant .. loved the banter the whole way thru .. new OSMO pocket 3 out today that has a wireless mic .. I expect to see it in your Arsenal soon !!
Great episode pal
Greetings from Italy!! Love your videos ;)
I have binge-watched your entire CZcams video list and I'm sad its over.
Oh but there's so much more to come ;)
@@fototripper Im holding you to that.
Nice video Adam. ;-)
Hard rules for business. No discounts & no chocolate! I'm a little jealous of that pano set up. Can't get them anymore.

Best use of your ultra expensive tripods in 2020. I would love to see how Brent uses his tripod for other household stuff.
Morning coffee is key! I have switched to First Ascent Instant...its awesome
An image that was well worth waiting for mate. Funny as ever, well worth the wait. Thanks
Me laughing when Brent looks down and rolls his eyes, and my wife wondering why there's loud laughter from the home office.........

I just use a standard ball head on my tripod. Levelling bases are for nerds ;)
Oh, I thought I saw one with a silver handle on the FLM tripod with the gimbal for photography. No matter. It's just easier for my hands (injured on active duty).
This was quite entertaining. :)
Saw my first Tim Hortons in Glasgow on Saturday I didn’t go in but at least I know where there is one
whaaaat? In Glasgow?
There's more than one. One's close to Central Station.
Enjoyed the video btw

Yes bud just by the station I was going to take a photo but I came over all shy
Another inspiring video... although no Vera :-( certainly agree with the 4x5 version superb shot and thanks for the quick tutorial. :-)
I bought Kicking Horse coffee because of you. I’m a wimpy medium roast drinker, so it’s Three Sisters for me.
Another fantastique video, Gavin. You’re one of my faves, but don’t tell Uncle Grumpy. 😉
Please tell them Adrienne. I 'm waiting for an endorsement.
@@fototripper you got it!
Great video as always! And just want to say, I have both of the Composition Courses and love them!! And thanks for the photoshop tip. I have to go try that one. :)
Thanks so much.
Do you have a backlog of “have a face like” descriptions or do you improvise on the spot? They’re always so f’ing random and amazing.
a bit of both
@@fototripper love it. I think my favourite has been, and don’t quote me but I believe it was “face like a smashed avocado”. Brilliant.
@@danmaynard120 ''neglected avocado''
The depth of field scale, is it part of the camera or extra bought? thanks
Thanks for lifting my spirits mate!
Great episode Gavin, the 4x5 is definitely a much nicer image!
You looked as if you were about to steal Yaddi's camera ! Great video hats oft to ya :-)
Nice video, funny thing just before you posted your video I was using my brand new peakdesign to hold the light on my BBQ, and is the first time used
Would love to see more snippets on what you do back in Photoshop.
Instagram on the john? Used to be the newspaper. I guess modern technology has changed that too, lol. I love your photoshop trick. Thanks for sharing that and I do love the image. I have a question. If you had to do it over again would you have lowered the camera to get a lower perspective to minimize the middle space? Just curious. Thanks for another great video.
aye probably although I recall being precariously perched which is probably the reason I didn't.
Great shot! and you are so lucky you didn't break a foot or worse putting your foot in the hole.
You might like the upcoming DJI Pocket 2 with its four internal mics and included wireless lavalier mic.
That was fun.
Not telling your buddy he has a huge booger in his beard, throughout the whole video, is classic.
Have you seen the new dji pocket pro 2, it has a wireless mic now looks sick, and wide 20mm lens.
Love all your video tutorials.
Great Vlog as always Gavin, nice to see the old crap wrap jokes are still getting used 👍👍👍
For a fully enraged debt collector...it was a thoroughly enjoyable video. The Canadian Rockies are beautiful!
But were you denied access?
Enjoyed that man,and the editing tip..
''Absolutely no discount'' LOL!!
Ha very entertaining .....great shot after all. I think I liked the composition and picture before you doctored it up in P S. Where was the Mrs. today? 😬
thank you Gavin!
laughed at "...back when I had no soul..."
It's the subtleties Claude...
Beautiful picture....
How do you guys sound so good? what's your mic setup?
He said MUFF.....LOL!! Great one!
excellent work really enjoyed
Those flowers would make a great foreground though.
I use the osmo pocket as well but I got to tell you, I am really excited about the pocket 2. They sell a package with a wireless mic and it already comes with a tripod mount! Can you believe this?
