    So what's the backstory behind this video?
    Well, I’m a Landscape photographer, based in the UK, searching for interesting locations, mainly around the UK, but also travelling further afield. I endeavour to make all of my videos as interesting as possible, with editing skills I've picked up over the years, also with adding music to match the mood of the locations and images. Using a basic set up, consisting of my DJI Osmo Action, my Mavic Pro Drone (although not all the time) and either my trusty Nikon D850 or my Nikon D7200 cameras, for the images.
    I always show my images, no matter how unhappy I am with them, I think you as the viewer deserve to see the good along with the bad, after all, if it’s on the video, you've already seen behind the scenes.
    So sit back, grab a coffee or a tea, relax and enjoy my slightly unprofessional, sometimes comical, but always crammed with passion video.

    I absolutely love your pictures; the colors, the light, the sharpness and the composition give a wonderfully fresh and crisp result.
    I would love to see a video where you show how you edit your photos to get this lovely feel.

      Sorry, I didn’t see your comment come through. Thank you so much for your kind words.
      Yeah I might possibly do a video on my processing techniques, but truthfully every image is treated differently to what it needs, but I’m sure I can cover this somehow. Thanks again and all the best. 👍

    Your enthusiasm for this place carried over from last week. As for the bridge: I think it is the focal point, more than the water. I was intrigued by the stonework. I'm not a fan of long exposure water shots and think some shorter shutter speeds might be a good thing to try on, for example, that waterfall. Looking forward to going along on your holiday, hope you and Sarah have a great time.

      Yeah it was only when I looked at the images I understand that the stone was pretty prominent on the bridge.
      Yeah people do have a difference of opinion on exposure for water, for me, that’s what I love to shoot in, around a second long exposure for water, it gives movement whilst also a bit of detail too. Others go all out on long long exposures, where it has its place too.
      Thank you so much Bill, we’re pretty excited to get there, currently packing, we’ll taking 5 minutes out. 👍

    Phenomenal indeed mate.
    Have I mentioned you're making me homesick by any chance? 😂😭😭😭
    I've got to put up with cacti and sun bleached um, er, everything 🙄.
    It's ironic that I had given up on 'proper' photography when I was cycling as I couldn't afford both hobbies. I had a long distance touring bike, a racing bike, a clubman bike and a mountain bike. Then there's the accessories from gloves to 1 man tent.
    Dragging a tripod, bag and camera on a racing bike on a club run isn't exactly feasible.😅
    Stunning photos as ever and I hope you both have a wonderful time on your holiday 👍

      Thank you so much mate, really appreciated.
      Yeah I understand not having both hobbies, both can be extremely expensive!
      Thank you so much, we’re currently packing now, can’t wait to get away and have a mix of city and countryside photography. All the best mate. 👍

    Great vid. I spend at least twice a week driving around that forest. I stop all the time to take photos and videos for tik tok. There is a beautiful little spot there called the Forest Garden where I stop for my lunch whenever I’m there. A real magical wonderland. And not far from there is another stunning circular walk called Torrent Walk in Brithdr. Autumn here is stunning 📷

      Thank you so much Tom, really appreciated. Yeah I’ve got so much more to explore there. And you’re right, Mahican is the best word for the place:

    Cracking vid mate, it really does look beautiful there. I’m staying in Towyn for the weekend of 20/10 with my wife, no dog this time so we can get out and about more
