- Landscape Photography Lake District - Wrynose Pass
In this video, I scout out locations for a future wild camp Workshop. Standing on top of a mountain in the Lakes, priceless!

⚡︎ ONE-2-ONE WORKSHOP - tinyurl.com/y5szhblt
My intention was to travel to the Lakes to scout out a location for a workshop I intend to hold later this year. Wrynose Pass is just the perfect place. From this location, you are able to capture amazing Sunrises and Sunsets. Better than that, it's a place in the Lakes where very few people tend to wander.
Wrynose Pass is joined with Hardknott Pass and these roads are treacherous to drive, especially in the winter time. If the weather drops to zero the road is automatically closed anyway.
Little and Great Langdale is just a 5-minute drive away. Blea Tarn as shown in the video nestles between both the Langdales. Therefore the photo opportunities are simply endless.
Even though the weather wasn't the best I still managed to capture some great images.
I will be adding info on my wild camp Workshop in the next 2 weeks.
THANK YOU
Gary

Take a look! :)
I think you are right about feeling the excitement, If you don't.t feel it you won't maintain the passion and drive.
So true. Cheers 👍👍
No shit of “wat’s in my bag”! No shit of “geartalk”! Advertising about your own website, ofcourse! Just vlogging about the scene, the composition, straight! That’s what ik like about your vlog Gary. To me it’s entertainment! Thnx.
It's your passion that has attracted 32k subscribers and created your incredible body of outstanding work - long may you feel it.
Great: passion is vital. It's what makes greatness in an artist, an educator and a communicator - and you are all of those things.
Agree with your comment l would feel great passion at a spot such as this!!!
Thanks for braving the weather. Another great video and images. Always enjoy tagging along on your journey.
Nice video Gary and some sound advice. I always like to see you in the Lake District too.
What a great walk I’ll be there this week can’t wait.
Great, as always Gary! You're an inspiration. Thank you.
Thank you Glenn, very kind
Loved this Vlog and the images within. lLandscape photography standard id love to achieve.
I guess being a photographer, looking at the Landscape just gives you that feeling, you know the one that inspires the passion to get out there and take pictures, you certainly have the Passion Gary, thanks again for the Inspiration to get out there
Great vlog as always Gary. Six shot panorama - not so easy to say! Love your simple composition explanation - tree, waterfall,... if people cant understand composition from that, then there is no hope. I dont think you need to justify your passion for landscape photography, thats what makes your vlogs so appealing. How boring would it be to be a landscape photographer and not be motivated and inspired by the landscape in front of you.
Thumbs up from me, thanks Gary
You’re an inspiration Gary well done 👍
Great video Gary. Stunning locations and awesome images.
Excellent captures and info
Grey skies yet wonder scenes
Thank you
Fab Vlog again Gary 🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻
Great as always, and nice to see new locations
Gary, very nice images, I can feel your passion and enjoyment ....
Well done .
We'll be round that area in September. Thanks for the tour.
Hello Gary, I loved your no-nonsense approach to this vlog. At last, someone has mentioned the obvious which I have been doing for more than 30 years. See what you like, then get a decent foreground for that interest to lead the eye into the scene. It is just that simple. My pal normally laughs at me when he says why do you not photograph that. And I say, it does not speak to me ! He then cannot stop laughing. But I think you know what I mean Gary. As always thanking for sharing your skills and knowledge...
As always Gary, another enjoyable and informative video! Thanks for sharing your passion. It shows in your images. Cheers!
Hi Gary. Thanks for the reminders on shooting panos.
Brilliant vlog!
As usual brilliant images and more importantly inspiration. Thank you
Beautiful photos
Great content as always Gary, I'm learning all the time from these blogs of yours.
Awesome video as always Gary. Some amazing images, and some awesome tips as well. Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to hearing more about your project at a later date. Also loving your PhotoNerds podcasts, they are brilliant, and some awesome chats with probably 3 of the best youtubers!!
Great and informative vlog Gary, beautiful location and stunning images
Nice video Gary
Looks like you had some tough shooting winds to contend with
15:53 image is my fav
Thanks for sharing
lovely images Sir.
Very informative thanks very much great vlog.
Fantastic captures Gary. Well done
Here's an extra like for your passion, brother.
May it always guide you.
Lovely video really enjoyed watching
Thank you for a great upload
Thank you
As ever, good information and entertaining, thanks for sharing.
All the best..............Peter.
Fab as usual. 😊
Thanks Mark 👍
Hi Gary, great video. I really love what your doing and appreciate the effort that you put into bringing your wealth of experience to the masses. Thank you.
Very kind, cheers Paul
Cheers Gary. I'm fairly new to photography and I have watched your videos tirelessly to get advice and ideas. I particularly love long exposure photography where you have lots of content around that which is brilliant. I'm trying to learn my way with landscape and seascape photography where the hardest thing for me is to get my work critiqued so that I can develop. Anyway I'm whittling on. Look forward to seeing your upcoming content. Many thanks. Paul
This is one of my favourite areas of the lakes Gary so thank you for taking us along there from the comfort of the sofa :D Nice images and good advice cheers :D Teddy
Gary-Gary-Gary that was an absolute belter of a vlog thanks for sharing your tips and thoughts much appreciated and have taken everything on board and when I'm at my next waterfall I'll post my result. Oh and your images are top drawer too lol. Can't wait for the next ....
Great advice and images. I'm so glad you took that last 90 sec one at Blea Tarn too. No way you could walk past that without shooting it again. Lovely stuff.
Thanks Gary
Err... I have! I've stopped a couple of times on Wrynose Pass and it, like Little Langdale, are great mainly because there are so few people around. Funny when you think the bustling Blea Tarn is only 10 mins away. I like that you feature quieter areas of the Lakes (as long as it does not cause the crowds to flock there - ha ha).
great vlog Gary, loving the passion. Was at Derwent Water yesterday, what scenery.
Great vlog as always Gary, huge appreciation for the pano set up guidance, just playing with these but will now be way more confident. I love that area, wish I had your eye :-)
Great vlog m8 really enjoyed it.
Some big landscapes today. 👍 If your not excited by the landscape you really need to just sit and look at it for awhile if its still the same after 20 minutes go home and do the washing up. .
Fantastic content as always Gary. 👍
Cheers Neil
Great video Gary, like the tip about capturing flowing water, I do like images where the water is very smooth but the pictures you have shown have given me some ideas for my next trip and mixing up the shutter speeds a bit and see what looks best. Thanks a lot.
Beautiful location; top shots, as always. You answered a question I asked in your next vlog ie.preferred shutter speed for running water. Thanks again.
Mike in Oz
Hi Gary, slightly different feel to this vlog but good different! As usual some great pics, and a lovely group of lesser used locations, Yay for your enthusiasm Boo to those who don't get it! cheerio mate, Del.
Superb Gary,if people drive all the way to the Lake District and don’t get the passion for some great shots/compositions,they may as well take up Golf!😀
Any time out with the camera is a good time, even if the pictures dont work out, but safe to say Gary your pictures as always worked out great
Hi Gary. What a cracking location ! I've not spent much time in that part of the lakes so this video has been really helpful and has given me some options for my next trip. Thanks for the tip on shutter speed with running water - I'll try 1/6th next time I shoot a cascade. Many thanks for sharing this really enjoyable video Gary. P.S. Wasn't it good of Pep Guardiola to lend you his scarf !!
I'm sure it is an unwritten rule that if you are within 5 miles of Blea Tarn you have to visit. If it isn't a rule it should be.
I'm glad you also mentioned the exposure time for faster moving waters, something I feel many fall foul of when exploring longer exposures where they feel they have to use a 10 stop ND. I'm not saying it does not have a time and place but I am with you about retaining the flow details as it gives so much more energy to the images.
You make taking great images look so simple. Wonderful. How editing styles differ so greatly. I was watching your friend from Wales earlier & I like that but like yours too. Stupendous.
Thanks for another inspiring video Gary, I've learnt a lot from watching your channel. I was in the lake district last weekend myself and the weekend you were in Llanberis photographing the lonely tree I was over the mountain in the Ogwen valley :) All the best, Mark.
Cheers Mark, very kind of you to say, thank you
Nice vlog Gary. I have to say though that each waterfall is different and so is the exposure time needed. I'm no pro by any stretch of the imagination but I find that shooting at 1/4 sec for the average waterfall is usually about right but the larger the water mass or flow, the faster shutter speed is needed. It also depends on whether I'm shooting for monochrome or colour. For example a high contrast image on a slow fall may require 1/2 a second or more. Regardless of all that, for me the fun is being out there and experimenting and if it fails then it's a good excuse to go back :-D
Nice vlog Gary. Take photos with passion or don't take em at all😉
Always enjoyable, packed with enthusiasm and "fashion tips!!" Love the snood :o). Great tip on cascading water, certainly will be taking this one out with me on my next flowing water trip.
You know me Mike I'm at the cutting edge when it comes to designer clothing :)
@@GaryGough :o)
You need some amount of passion to be able to stay interested and to see creativly.. I think so anyway. I can almost feel your passion through the screen. 😊😄
a did little langdales in the heat storm in may .. its good spot ,that is ... :)|
Hey Gary... Sticking to the basics, confirming what most of us already know, good stuff! It is a constant in most if not all forms of photography. You gave me a laugh earlier on when you thought maybe you tongue tied your words, got it, next! I respect your techniques with your camera setups because it works... I happen to use a leveler attached to the top of my tripod, therefore it does allow for a not perfectly level set of legs. It is made by RRS & I don't particularly care for it. It gets the job done, however, the what looks like a Made in China spirit level is so small, I need my reading glasses on to see it in slightly dim light. It is a well built piece of equip. with a tiny cheapo level, very sad.
As with most of this companies products, based on my research, this leveler is " under-engineered & over-priced "...
I pretty much have come to that same conclusion on the Lee Filter Systems as well, that includes their IRND Pro Glass... Times are a changin & either they keep up with those changes, or risk being left behind. That is just my take on it, it is not meant to be gospel.
Once again Gary, excellent content in this video as I absorbed some nuggets of helpful tips...
Cheers,
Bill on the Hill... :~)
Great location and you worked it well. Love the reflection shot, was that a composite Gary? By the way Wrynose pass puts the willies up me! Lol but we still do it. Really enjoyed Gary 👌
Hi Mali, It gives me the heeby-geebies too. It wasn't a composite btw. Straight out of the camera
Gary Gough stunning shot! It was me and the wife talking about the image, we both agreed it’s a stunner. Some images resonate and this was one. Photography eh, it’s a wonderful art, how we can all enjoy and have differing opinions, eye of the beholder! Lovely Gary.
Some great images again gary, can i just ask gary on your podcast you mentioned kood filters, are they any good? Ive just getting the nisi holder and want to use a couple of cheaper filters that wont blow my budget until ive bought my new camera, then i will buy good ones.
0:51 i love that spirit level bubble at the back of your hat, Gary?
where can i get one, and how can i use it?
i'm crossed eyed.... but i think, that i would still struggle without a proper training
I'm sure I drove pass Wrynose Pass when I was up there last year but it was night time returning from Wasdale. By the way, that orange stick on the fence at blea tarn is a bit annoying :D
If you don't get passionate about landscape photography, give up photography!! Getting outdoors is good for the soul and your general well being!
So true Paul, more often than not it's the getting out there that's the cure. Cheers as always
Well, that's annoying, I've been scripting a vlog on panoramas and ensuring the tripod and head are level :( I'll still do it, though. A well informed vlog, Gary. Cheers.
i wish i had your back yard...
Now, the big question is: did any wrynose pass?
lol
You don't appear to be pivotting the camera around the no-parallax point of the lens. Is there a reason for that? Does it ever give you problems when stitching the shots? I ask because I've just purchased some Sunway gear to resolve the issue of parallax - or have I wasted my money?
What are the gloves you are wearing?
portrait mode, not panoramic ;-)
