    Both shots, beautiful, so can enjoy them both equally. It's about the light and mist and seeing an image.

    Fantastic images Adam. Those conditions were epic. Love your woodland images. Very inspiring. This is my first Autumn since I started photography and I have been in the foggy Peak District woodlands today. Had an amazing day, but it’s definitely a challenge taking your time when you have no idea when the fog will burn off!

    I think from the limited view in the video that it was Bracken. Ferns grow from a common point at ground level, Bracken has a central stem and branches out from that.

    Outstanding!
    I'd like to see a remote shoot which includes a workflow consisting of image capture, edit and printing but in a much more portable and faster process. In other words, quality instant photography in a digital format.

    Hi Adam, another great video. I was at the same location ("SM") yesterday and the fog was very thick with no glowing sun like you had. I did however get a good minimalist pano of a line of silver birches with fog behind which actually lit the scene. This was inspired by what I have learnt from CZcamsrs like yourself. Thanks for that and keep up the good work!!

    Love your attitude when seeing the campers.
    Like you, I'm often contending with people wanting to enjoy the outdoors at the same time with me, in their own way. They apologize when they they are taking a family portrait and see me waiting my turn. I'll say something like, "No worries. We're all out here to enjoy nature". And I mean it.

    Hi, great video. May I ask you what was the consumption of your printer when you printed your photo. I’ve been thinking about this idea for a while.

    • @Firstmanphotography
      @Firstmanphotography  Před 8 měsíci

      If you’re talking power (rather than ink)…..I had the printer and laptop running for about an hour or two drawing 65-95w. The battery does also charge from the 9v on the car and if I had the solar panel with me, in direct sun than produces around 75-85w.
      You could basically run it for most of the day, especially if you had a newer laptop that doesn’t require constant charging.
