  • @ashstubbings2603
    @ashstubbings2603 Před 4 lety

    Nope. Didn't fall asleep! Stayed with it right to the end and thoroughly enjoyed the video! People (who aren't photographers) think I'm nuts when I tell them one of the main things I like to photograph is trees!

  • @jamesmarko1787
    @jamesmarko1787 Před 4 lety

    Don't apologize for the long video Adam. I really enjoyed it, and It was over before I knew it. Beautiful pictures as always. Your pictures and that music playing in the background go together so well. It's very healing and soothing for the soul.

  • @reneholtslag2297

    Great video. I can imagine why you are the landscape photographer of the year.

    The forest is amazing but absolutely loved the sunset scene.

  • @davebenson1504
    @davebenson1504 Před 3 lety

    Beautiful view of the old trees at about 9:40 mark... and the 24-120 did a real sweet job on the sunset too... really enjoyed, right to the end...

  • @antonoat
    @antonoat Před 4 lety

    What a stunningly beautiful place, no wonder you were mellowed out! The variety and range of shades of green in that landscape is mindboggling, it defines the word lush ! Thanks for sharing Adam, cheers.

  • @jimroehm3938
    @jimroehm3938 Před 3 lety

    Hey Adam...
    I REALLY love the way you show your raw files AND your processed images in your vlogs. As one who is still learning, it's especially helpful to see what you see originally, and then how your vision of it progresses to a finished product!
    Thanks!! 😎

    @pablogonzalez8304 Před 4 lety

    Really liked the last two images towards the end of the video not the last one but the one 10 years was definitely better. Nice Kuhl sweater by the way!

  • @actiaint
    @actiaint Před 4 lety

    I am so pleased I have finally found your photography - even if it was via Gavin - renewed inspiration from the artful way you interpret beauty.

  • @gregsnell
    @gregsnell Před 4 lety

    Man those tranquil intros are so relaxing. Great for the morning porcelain. Nice to see a new corner of Vancouver Island and digging the branded touque mate!! Those layers at 12:50 and the red sun, wow!!

    @josephcole3187 Před 4 lety

    almost fell asleep not due to your video but the fact that i was up shooting my vlog at 4a.m. lol great shots Adam!!!

  • @jamesjohnston6765
    @jamesjohnston6765 Před 4 lety

    If you are going to keep tackling a composition, then that is a good one to play with. Obviously it changes a bit over the years and the light is different every time. I loved them all. I will be in the Rockies with you in spirit my friend. Cheers.

  • @ukdphotography8448
    @ukdphotography8448 Před 4 lety

    Beautiful forest pictures. You inspired me to venture out to the challenging and cluttered forest scenes and make pictures there. Cheers to you and your art.

  • @The58stupot
    @The58stupot Před 4 lety

    Top drawer images as always Adam. You are very fortunate to live in one of the most stunning parts of the world. Keep 'em coming. ( ps. Gavins such a nice boy isn't he )

  • @DavidSwarthout
    @DavidSwarthout Před 4 lety +2

    I love it when you explain how you go about choosing what you are about to shoot. Yet, every photo in this video came as a surprise to me because after hearing you downplay the result of your careful compositions, what immediately followed was sort of a shock, another simply stunning photo. Videos like this one are what is so special about your channel.
    Many thanks.

  • @MsYushika
    @MsYushika Před 4 lety

    Came across your video, then I checked your website. Gotta say I don't comment much on youtube videos, but I had to! Your pictures are out of the ordinary. I was in awe only by looking at them.

    What a great relaxing end to a weekend. Your forest videos are an inspiration,relevant wherever you live. Time you were signed up by the Canadian tourist board, you sell your Island well.[Vancouver Island,not the whole continent!!] Love the shot with shaft of light coming between the two trees.

    @TheGuitarsadist Před 4 lety

  • @a_tall_carrot
    @a_tall_carrot Před 4 lety

    Just moved to Vancouver Island from the UK two days ago... Partly through inspiration from yourself and Gavin.
    I can't wait to explore the likes of this forest when I make it out west.

    Great video, your explanations of the scenes you are visualizing will help me think a little more when shooting similar scenes. My sister lives out there, so I will be inviting myself back.

  • @Higgins_Nature_Photographer

    Very nice woodland photography Adam, well done.

  • @valpayne2963
    @valpayne2963 Před 4 lety

    You are...the Tolkein of old growth forest imagery! I don’t know how else to describe it. You manage to capture and create such a depth of atmosphere and interest. That sunset was also on another level. Thank you for continuing to inspire.

    The Tree Whisperer strikes again, and the sunset/hill layering ain't too shabby either!

  • @michaelvail2446
    @michaelvail2446 Před 4 lety +2

    The shot with the highlighted mist between the tree trunks near the end of the video defines quiet light for me. Very nice!

    Honestly I enjoy the longer videos. Like to grab a coffee, sit back, and enjoy being inspired. Thanks for the work you do to put out these videos.

  • @philipculbertson55
    @philipculbertson55 Před 4 lety

    I like that you are showing the RAW file after the processed one. It is quite helpful and also surprising how much detail is really present in a dark scene.

    @LCSlade Před 4 lety

    Man that 24-120 F4 is a POS! So I got it in the kit with my own d850... and you're a big part of the blame! Nice shooting, Sir Grumpalot!!

    @philbraithwaite1316 Před 4 lety +14

    Not bad for a crappy old kit lens.....which I also own along with a "cheapo" 70-200 f4!!. Fantastic photos and very calming video as usual.

  • @searam1
    @searam1 Před 4 lety

    I have truly enjoyed all your videos! I did not know that someone would have to have their chest waxed with three hairs on it! Hmmm... Oh, the pic of you riding the eagle was truly.... something...

  • @mikemitchell3889
    @mikemitchell3889 Před 4 lety +1

    Adam,
    The gentle light ratio in that forest is quite appealing to me. I love those conditions of subtle light direction and saturated palette. Looking at these photos, I expect a forest creature, perhaps a deer or elk, to emerge. The work is alive!
    Thank-You,
    Mike

    • @molopez619
      @molopez619 Před 4 lety +1

      Mike Mitchell definitely a great example of what quiet light is.

    Beautiful video, enjoyed hearing your thoughts on what makes a shot for you. But most of all, i enjoyed the shoes. Thought it was something else at first. And wow! Image at 15:35!!!

  • @ottersphotography304
    @ottersphotography304 Před 4 lety +1

    Adam, as always a great video. Even leaving your long lens at home, you obviously didn't need it. That was a great shot of the layers of distant mountains and sunset. I really enjoy getting to see your older work compared to current work as you showed with that last composition. Thank you for the content you produce and share with us, your audience.

  • @KurtBaumanMobilePhotography

    Thanks for sharing Adam, I certainly learn a lot and gain inspiration from your vlogs. I have been to Carmanah once last year and it was beautiful, I recognize that camp site. I plan on going again this year maybe next month.

  • @hansbrongers6979

  • @donlindgren109
    @donlindgren109 Před 4 lety +3

    Excellent video, Adam! BTW, I really like your new “Quiet Light” stocking cap for your “Adam Only” videos... it is sharp and it is “all you.” It makes for good separation of characters. On the other hand, I very much enjoy your collaborations with Gavin where “Uncle Grumpy” emerges in full force (complete with Uncle Grumpy stocking cap). Two different styles of videos, both entertaining and informative. Keep up the great work.

  • @SceneSprout
    @SceneSprout Před 4 lety

    Fall asleep to the Illustrious Adam Gibbs Landscape Photographer of the year! Never! However I have been know to nod off to that unsavory Hardcastle! If all it takes to be lanscape photographer of the year is some white electric tape.....well theres a guy who did a thing with a white sharpy lately....Im sorry that was a bit too far. In all seriousness though you and Gavin are both very talented videographers and even more inspiring photographers. And Gavin if ya read this. I couldnt help but make the white tape and sharpy comparison! But I promise it was all in good fun. I hope im right in reading your humor here if not. I owe you a couple Tim Bucks lol!
