Also big thank you to @jfs_films for joining me and helping with a couple shots. You can check out his video from this day on his channel!
Wishing you a lovely week!
i get the feeling you're getting to the point in which your videos are more than photography, each upload is art, the ideas, presentation, music, script.
Soo true!! Keep up the good work Teo❤
Aww thank you so much for these kind words!!
I agree
Absolutely incredible Teo. You’re so good
As expected, Gawx has taste.
Likewise mister!
Aww thank you so much Gawx!!
This video reminds me of how much I love not only photos but the journey and process it takes to go and find amazing locations especially with friends,
Phenomenal video as always, thank you Teo!
Ohh yes, that's so important! I'm so happy this video gives you the reminder :))
the mystery and suspense vibe this whole video gives is incredible , its like a movie ....
Of course google suggests this video after watching the post-race 2024 Austrian grand prix a few minutes ago.
NO SPOILERS I HAVENT WATCHED IT YET MY DAD LEFT FOR WORK SO WE WATCH IT AT NIGHT 😭
Dude this video was so good! Great storytelling! It’s super satisfying to document the existence of places. I’ve photographed a handful of places that are no longer in existence and it feels good to be able to immortalize them.
Hmmm yes, congrats on shooting those - it's like the main power and magic that makes photography so immensely cool! Thank you for your kindness Reimann!
wow. 25 minutes of pure cinema with my coffee.
I want to take some time and seriously thank you from the bottom of my heart for making videos and posting them online for all of us to see. Clearly a lot of work has been put into each one of your videos and it is so evident that you don't just do it for the views or the other stuff, you do it for the story, for the feeling. I personally feel so good watching your videos every single time, it's like I know you personally and resonate with you, with your art, with your style of photos and videos. It actually makes me want to make videos too although only for myself. Things have been very difficult lately with a lof of uncertainity in life and a lot of pressure and anxiety but I really appreciate these small things a lot, these videos, these beautifully composed photos, these adventures and stories that other people are pursuing such as you. I myself love photography a lot but have been in a weird place with it, also started shooting film coz of you and willem. In a nutshell, just wanted to say thank you so much for these videos and photos, somehow, a part of my happiness depends on them :))))
Thank you so much for the kind and thoughtful comment! I'm so happy these videos can inspire, entertain or in any other way have a small impact on someone. I hope things become better for you soon, wishing you the best and a lot of strength!

Thanks for the experience! Loved our hike!🙌🙏
Thank you for joining me
@@teocrawford ehre
This whole video feels like watching a very comfortable movie to watch before bedtime. The pure whiteness of the scenes were so breathtaking I wish I could be in the frame. So mystical yet majestic. Love from Malaysia
I've been watching your videos for more than a year and you have never failed to amaze me. The audio on this video is absolutely amazing! You're such a big Inspiration for me
teo seeing the temple: "that s fookin obi wan kenobi there" ahh moment
You're making me fall in love with hiking. I live in Switzerland and haven't been into hiking at all, but through you I'm getting an urge to explore our beautiful landscapes that I've just been under-appreciating.
I visited Switzerland last summer, it’s unbelievably beautiful with hiking areas all over. It’s the adventures like this video that make the best memories and photographs.
This is epically edited to take us along this journey with you...I love it so much! Thank you for everything that you put into these videos.
This video for me is the most epic you've set out to make (so far).
Great job, Teo! This adventure of yours gave me Legend of Zelda vibes! Especially when you described how it felt like the temple had intentionally given you access before disappearing. This is now one of my favorite videos you've made, looking forward to the next 😊
This video embodies the thrilling experience of exploring the world. The atmosphere you create really adds to the mystique of this adventure. Furthermore I'm glad to have found out I'm not the only one to scour the maps; trying to find secret monuments or temples. Although this might've been a riskier adventure than usual, i hope to see more of it in the future. Truly a phenomenal video.
Thank you so much for sharing this amazing adventure with us! Such an impressive and powerful beauty of nature, adore it from first seconds
Holy you've outdone yourself with the sounddesign in this one
Aww thank you!
new teo video, i watch
love your style of photography so much man!
a beautiful video, you've been such an inspiration to me. started shooting film because of you and it has been pleasing journey. warm greeting from Bali.
Definitely one of my favorite videos by you so far!
This was epic. I so appreciated the whole story and seeing how you went from an idea to forming a plan to accomplishing it. I love how you kept your heavy breathing in the video because it helped us see how hard it was. Often times when watching videos I think, oh it’s not that bad I could do that. But seeing how steep it was and hearing your breathing brought me there with you.
I also like how you talk about your photos, you point out some of the critiques of how it could be better, but you also talk about what makes it a good photo and what makes it meaningful. That has helped me put my photography into proper perspective to not be too critical of myself and appreciate what makes it meaningful to me.
Aww I'm so happy the video resonates with you and that you appreciate these decisions! Thank you for your kind comment
13:55 Looks like the mountain is coming out of his head, like he’s creating a reality out of a void or something like that
Dang Teo out here doing real life quests! Video was amazing. A great magical adventure!
Really love how you show your photos and point out the things you like - but also the things you don't. It was amazing watching this adventure!
Keep up the great work!
Gruß aus Deutschland :)
Freut mich sehr, dass dir das gefällt! :) Lieben Dank für den netten Kommentar
beautiful beautiful footages, thank you for bringing us to the lesser seen sights of austria! feels mystical knowing that this side of earth exists while i live in the tropics of Singapore hahaha
What a journey mate! Even though you didn't get closer to the temple, the adventure is also part of the fun! I'm sure the bit of challenge made it that much more worthwhile :)
Lovedddd! Pretty mystic, the construction of the story telling was amazing, thank you!
Amazing dude, incredible job, both seeing the temple and the video it self.
IT COULDVE BEEN A MIRAGE MATE U NEVER KNOW
Nooo IT WAS REAL, I will just never go back to see if it's still there
The dedication was insane!!! & the shots were stunning🤩
Love this style of video, great job!
This whole video felt like playing Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
Teo your videos are fantastic sir, would love it if you were to potentially break down how to master Zone focusing one day!
Really good film making, man.
The ending of this video reminds me so much of “The Mists of Avalon”
Great Video! Photography need not be an end in itself but a means and viewpoint to explore the world around us and live our fantasies and curiosities. Absolutely amazing storytelling
Absolutely wonderful! Thank you for sharing you legend
Aww thank you!
wish I lived in austria to experience this! amazing video :)
I bet the water at 16:54 was CRISP!
I'm getting jealous of how you make your videos. They are too good 😅. I just watched the whole thing.
Josephs jacket really matching the vibe and environment very nice video man love it 🎉.
Could you do guided meditations 😂😂😂 your voice is so soothing. Great video! Photo adventures are so fulfilling
your photograph of the temple is very beautiful
This video was so awesome!!
Teo, you did a great Job ❤
Incredible adventure! Great work fellas! Thanks for sharing it 👍
@13:56 So funny because I think the composition works perfectly. The subject is connected to the environment he is exploring
Part 2 in August?
This time inside the temple!
this is so interesting Teoooo
Can you please spoil us with the hike location on Google Maps? Amazing video!!
I love ur videos bro
21:41 i find such a compelling angle and it immediately reminded me of the famous painting 'Wanderer above the Sea of Fog', not so much for exact comparison but the journey the image takes you on? The painter was considered to paint from the heart and wanted to create landscapes that could evoke a deeper meaning than just observation and you really captured that feeling throughout this video and the journey it takes us. impressive video as always!!
Sehr schönes interessantes Video und schöne Fotos. Ich hoffe, du bist trotz deines Fiebers ohne Probleme wieder gut nach Hause gekommen. Schöne Grüße vom Bodensee😊
Zuhause bin ich umgefallen und lag dann erstmal drei Tage haha - aber das war es wert :)) Freut mich, dass dir das Video gefallen hat, danke für den lieben Kommentar. Liebe Grüße!
Wow, I've never been this early
Congrats, mate I’m a bit late today
Does anyone know the name of the songs he uses between 13:20-15:40 ? I wish he’d put them in the description…
Good morning Teo!
Great mystery/travel/film vibes
This is a sick!
Thank you!
I do this too! I love Google maps!
Ahh yes, Google Maps is way too much fun haha! Sometimes it's a terrible source of procrastination but at least I find cool stuff while at it hehe :D
16:52 is that an 'hello my name is' sticker?
flag of Austria actually
@@spellxthief ahh that makes more sense
Teo Liverpool Kev here from UK...I can only dream of a photo adventure like this...Thank you so much for sharing...it is really appreciated...Thank you again....Liverpool Kev.......Owner of your favourite GX80 haha...
Dear Liverpool Kev, I'm so happy you find joy in the video! Thank you so much for your kind comment. I really wish you get to experience and adventure like this too
Often the most meaningful photographs are not the technical best or beautiful. Thank you for this video. Will you return with better weather (and health)?
Do you where people always save their 'secret' things? On Google maps.
Gut gemachte Story (ich habe richtig mitgefiebert) und sehr schöne Bilder- mein Highlicht des Tages, besten Dank!
Ahh das freut mich sehr, danke!
More videos like this!
Not sure why the audio while watching in a TV is putting me off , could you please lower the bass/treble for your voice for future videos
😥😥😭😭😭😭i wish u would enter it
4:39 😭😭😭😭😭
Boy you got too much time on your hands hah
its not secret, its marked on both outdooractive and alpenvereins map... just because something isn't on google maps (a lot of stuff in nature isnt lol), it doesn't mean that its secret...
way to take the fun out of it
16:52 is that an 'hello my name is' sticker?
