      Great video as usual. Thank you so much for your commitment to showing off landscape photography. It’s never easy. Though thoroughly enjoyable. Jealous to hear the comment about Antartica!!
      Quick question?
      All
      The images you demonstrate on your channel. Do you place them as stock or as images for purchase. It would be good to have an idea as to what you do with your end results other than printing and selling as well presenting them on your website!!

    Nigel I have followed you for 6 years now. Photography for me just a hobby and watching your videos has taught me so much about landscape photography so a Big Thanks for that for sure. I've enjoyed everyone of your videos I've watched over the span of 6 years and there hasn't been one photograph you have taken that I wouldn't love to have framed and in my house that is for sure. Anyway, I hope you don't take offence but I just not "feeling" the same excitement for these winter photos in this video as you are ... maybe it might just be me. I live in Canada right next to the Canadian Rockies 50 minutes from Banff and not far from Yoho and Jasper so maybe I'm spoiled a bit but the amazing winter scenery I get around here. I've seen other winter photos you've taken which in my opinion are much, much better anyway just my thought. Loved the video though ... always do and can't wait to see you van conversion!

    I’m so jealous of you doing the video in the snow. It’s currently 35°C here in Australia now.

    These winter videos are one of my favourites. Such an amazing atmosphere. I can’t wait till I am in the winter snow in the South Island of NZ.

    @Billie-lw5jz Před 5 měsíci

    As a person who lives in a place where winter seems to last forever, I love your pictures of it. I also have tried to get all the best pictures of it that I can. Although I am drawn to cemeteries and grave yards, I love all nature photos.

  • @junebug1553
    @junebug1553 Před 5 měsíci

    I love the way the photographs only show a hint of color in the tree bark and even that is pale with bits of snow. Almost looks like sepia. Beautiful shots. I'm glad you are so happy. I thought you were going to do a backflip there for a minute. Thanks for sharing with us. I'm in Florida and have never seen anything like this! Keep us updated on your woodworking projects!

  • @tomreynard3820
    @tomreynard3820 Před 5 měsíci

    I love your excitement while doing the videos and it does get me going when the bad weather arrives. Just wondered if you adjusted the exposure compensation with all that extreme white snow or did the camera do such a good job automatically? Also, it's great to see you setting up such a nice shop for woodworking and your choice of compound miter saws is as good as your choice of camera equipment. Keep up the great work as it is truly inspiring to so many of us. Thanks so much.

    Thanks Nigel for a great story today. I was happy for you in this winter forest. It is a great fortune when you get into such a picturesque forest with a camera and can share such beauty with your friends. Thank you again for the story about your passion for carpentry. The more hobbies a person has, the more happy a person feels. Thank you. Inspiration to you. I have been watching you from Ukraine for a long time.

  • @jpdj2715
    @jpdj2715 Před 5 měsíci

    13:30 seems like a nice example for a video on adjusting black or white points and comparing the effect of shifting gradation in the 2-base-log gradation dimension. Nuances can be compressed higher up on the EV scale or opened up at the lower end.

    Great video, only down side is MPB the sponsor. I have used them twice and each time not a very good experience at all.
    The last occasion I part ex a lens for use one on the mpb web site only to find it had an error code when I tested it. After some reading of reviews I read this was a common issue with mpb not fully testing the gear, if at all, or the description was incorrect from the actual conditions.
    Also my part ex lens was knocked down on its value once they received claiming it had a scratch on the rear element.
    When The deal fell through and I asked for my lens back I had to pay FULL retail price for it from mpb, and when I did get it back I could not find any scratch.
    I used a macro lens and 45mp camera to hunt for said scratch, and strangely enough I did not find any scratch ! !
    Problem when a deal with mpb goes south for the consumer it cost the customer in the pocket !
    All mpb offered me was a £10 discount voucher off a £100 spend as their idea of compensation ! !

    Fabulous Nigel, looked like great fun and I cant wait to go there next winter. On the topic of keeping your kit and yourself dry I know its tricky to take photos, film and hold a brolly all at the same time but as I only have to do two of those and since I started to carry a small windproof folding umbrella it makes dealing with conditions like this much easier.

    When you said about the camera and lens getting very wet, i was thinking why don't you use a camera/lens cover.
    You captured some really nice image's as usual.
    Look forward to seeing the camper conversation.

      And by the way, if you are looking for some opinions, I also believe it is better you keep the campervan workshop on same chanel, it's somehow part of your photography journey! Looking forward to seeing you building it; I have always loved custom campervans
