    Thanks for taking us on your adventures. As a former heavy traveller in my twenties you have given me some great experiences by proxy and invoked some great memories. Treasure these times.

    OMG again, almost cried when I watched the video, you were (again) so lucky with the weather, sunny at 2 Picos and foggy at Fanal, not everyone could see that in a short trip (for example me lol). Thanks for the good video for refreshing my memories at Madeira (I went last autumn)! ❤

    Having recently sailed to Madeira, and following your work for some time, this travel film far exceeds many of your former videos. I love the aerial/musical intro, providing perspective of location and upcoming challenge of the hike, however, 5min+ is outside most peoples' attention span (in this age)., Keep up the good work, safe travels and may the Gods of your ancestors look kindly upon you.

    There is something subjectively remarkable about your work. I say subjectively, because there are some who may find this boring, uninspired, or lackluster. But your content, your videography is so outstanding, it makes me question where I am today - it inspires me to reach for new heights and challenge myself by getting out of my comfort zones, and travel! Thanks for sharing this piece, Kraig. I'm always amazed by how stunning your videos are. I hope to make content like you someday.

    Nice one. Amazing shots. Nice edit for the day hikes but you are correct when you are doing a committed long distance hike the back-story is much more engaging. I think when doing day-hikes you need to set up a framework which would be something like 20 days hikes in 5 days, lol! Anyways glad to see you back on the Sony camera, I hope you enjoyed the options you get with the 20-70 lens, Would love to hear about your experience with it if the F4 made sense and worked for you? Can't wait for the next one :)
