    Loved this one Tony, as I know many of the spots you visit. Keep going back Tony to your special place and reflect on the love you and your beautiful wife enjoyed together. Dont worry about what others think of your beliefs or feel embarrassed this is your truth and. maybe all our truths. Keep the great content coming. Michael.

      Would you be interested in supplying one of your best landscape images at 4K resolution and I'll show it in a future video? I thought it'd be good to showcase some of my subscribers work?

    Lovely video, beautiful area for sure and I really like your style, this is the first video I have seen from you and looking forward to many more.
    Sorry you lost your wife and soulmate, most be tough going through, especially in the beginning.
    But to hear you talk about her in such way, it is obvious that you had a wonderful life together and that’s something special, as our good memories will keep our spirits up and helps us on the road forward until one day we meet again.
    Keep up the good work 👍🏻

    That was lovely to watch and quite touching. I very rarely get inspiration when re-visiting a photo location, however great it was the first time around. But aside from the scenery here, of course your personal circumstances are very different to mine. I think you would get great value out of Olympus micro four thirds cameras because the image stabilisation is outstanding and focus stacking can be done automatically and internally by the camera from beginning to end, incredibly fast incidentally. And you can always reset the aspect ratio. Anyway, excellent technique, imagery and organisation. For me, two tripods is two steps too far though!

    • @tonyhowellcouk
      @tonyhowellcouk  Před 3 měsíci +1

      Thank you Michael, I really appreciate your comments. My Sony does have auto-focus stacking and it works well, and I wouldn't like to lose more pixels by setting the aspect ratio on an Olympus. If anything, I'd probably get an APS-C if I get too old to carry around my full-frame and two tripods! Hopefully not for a while yet 😅

    Hi Tony,
    Another excellent video. My wife and I walked the coastal path there last year on a visit from Australia. I have so many great memories of the Cornwall coast. Watching this reminded me of the many photo opportunities I had to walk past, as we were hiking the coast and had destinations to reach each night. I would love to come back one day with more time to pause and photograph. It is a beautiful location.
    I’m think it’s lovely that you can talk about your wife and share your feelings for her.
    Thanks for sharing.
    Peter

    Sorry for your loss, and hopefully you find some solace in your photography. May I ask a technical question? Do you stack the images in photoshop, or do you use layer masks and "paint" in the relevant in-focus areas manually? Thanks.

    • @tonyhowellcouk
      @tonyhowellcouk  Před 2 měsíci +1

      Thank you very much Mark. I do find solace in photography and talking freely in my videos. My method is shown in this video - czcams.com/video/XtzPBNqVs6M/video.html - I know you're supposed to use Layer Masks, but I got so used to doing it well manually (in the days before Layer Masks) that I don't use them!
