- The sky is blue so let's jump on the Triumph Legend, take a ride down some beautiful back roads into Dorset and see what photo opportunities we can capture along the way. Found a bit of interesting history in the town of Wimborne Minster for you too..

This is not about photography. This is not about a bike. This is about the passion to share a positive way to look at the world. The photography and the bike are ways to enjoy this even more in a creative way. Thank you for another beautiful moment in life you share with us!
Ahh thanks Paul. That is a beautiful comment.. ... MIKEđđ
If there was ever someone to hang out with for a period of time and explore the photographic world, you are that person. I don't own a motor bike, but hard to watch these and not want one for being able to stop and keep it out of the way and go get a shot. Still owe you a coffee and tasty bit.
Do you?! đ€Ł
I love your positive attitude, your humor and the wonderful teaching skills.
Thank you so much Bea
Definitely two hobbies that go together well, motorcycles and photography! Riding bikes has taken me to place that I never would have seen otherwise!
Totally agree with you John a different experience to being sat in a car - I feel much more part of the environment on my bikes... đïž
Love it!!! I can see in the coming year where this is going. âBrowneâs photobiker tour series of Europeâ. These are entertaining and educational on photography too! Way to go Mike!
Thank you - yep that's kinda the plan... ... MIKEđđ
@@MikeBrowne wow! This is going to be awesome!
ALRIGHT!! another Mike Browne video..Watching now.. :)
I hope you enjoyed it đïž đž
Dorset , such a wonderful County
It is isn't it đŽó §ó ąó „ó źó §ó ż
Been watching your videos for several years now, love the photo bike series. One of if not the best Photo Vlogs.
Wow - high praise indeed! Thank you đ
Thanks Mike !The Johnny ball of the camera teaching world. I Learned so much from you all those years ago. Still love photography.
Hey Philip thatk you for your ongoing support. Much apprieciated ... MIKEđđđ
I am enjoying this series.
Tack!
Beautiful country and love the B&W
It is isn't it, thank you.
Love these bike rides
Me too Salty Swim... particularly when it starts to warm up â
what a beautiful morning. Know you said you just got her back in service, but it appears she needs a bit of love to make her glow again, smile. Great tips and demo wide angle vs telephoto!
She's a bit scruffy because she's unafraid of ant weather. Confess i don't clean the RL ooften but alway do my own mechanical stuff to ensure it's in top order ... MIKEđđ
Another lovely video Mike. Thank you. Loved the long lens shot looking down the avenue of trees.
Thank you Philip.
Brilliant blog this week and most entertaining but I have to confess I was more interested in the Triumph than the photography let's face it we can go out any day to take pictures but we can't go out any day on a Triump (was it a Boni) I loved them when I was a teenager 60 odd years go, Meriden was only about 20 or so miles away from where I lived, but then marriage got in the way and my biking days where over! The pictures were great I loved the avenue of Tree's, and what a great day you had for taking pictures and yes you were right all we needed was a bit of mist! I am glad you mentioned about the distortion on wide angle zoom lenses people don't always realise that all those beautiful landscape pictures that we see are not real at all but are distorted beyond recognition. Thank you so much for sharing your photography with us it was most enjoyable.
Thank you Des. Delighted you enjoyed it so much. It's a 1999 Triumph Legend. (3 cylinder 900..) ... MIKEđđ
@@MikeBrowne I should have known that! đ thank you.
Yes I enjoyed your trip through beautiful Dorset Mike, I grew up in Dorset so I recognised some of the locations..!
Thanks Jason. Glad you enjoyed it ... MIKEđđ
I love these!! My absolute favorite for sure!!
Thanks ... MIKEđđ
Nice video again... And I love the smooth sound of your scruffy Triumph!
Thanks Gert - She's a honey ... MIKEđđ
Another Brilliant vlog Mike. I am really enjoying your bike trips. Your
Thanks Carol... MIKEđđ
Some more knowledge and insight. Thanks for creating it for us to watch đ
Thanks Bokooda ... MIKEđđ
Informative, inspirational ,easy to watch and listen too videos, thank you Mike.
Kind words Steve - thank you
Love the bike Mike...one day before im 100 years old I would like to have another one. Had one for a couple years in the late 90s..sold it around 99 ..they are good fun..
Another great travel video. Like you, I liked the people walking down the road in black and white. I enjoy the fact that you not only describe what you see as you are cruising along, but you share your photographic thoughts with us as well. Your projected compositions before you arrive give us all an incite into your thought process. Thanks again, Mike. God bless.
Thanks Michale. Previsualising is a very important part of thinking like a photographer... ... MIKEđđ
Awesome video Mike, love seeing the English countryside. I am in Australia and it is great seeing such beautiful and much older buildings and history.
Thank you Gab Bee - I do love me a bit of Australia too....
I am soooo enjoying these videos!! Thanks so much from snowy Maryland usa!!
Thank you Lisa - I will make it out to the USA one day! đșđž
old towns are interesting. so much history and charm and just a different feel to them. Its like going back in time..
Very true...
9:00 old structures like that make for some good photo moments for sure..even if its out in the open with not much going on..
Yes you're spot on.
I like these a lot! Thank you, Mike!
Thank you Kerstin
Another great video Mike. Thanks
Thanks ... MIKEđđ
You make it look so simple. Great video and spot on.
Thank you Mark - I've been doing it many years now so that's a lot of practice getting it wrong first đ
Thanks Mike. Great video with some excellent tips and tricks. Love it.
Thanks Brian ... MIKEđđ
Another great video!! Thanks for the hard work you put in this educational material.
Thanks Stanley ... MIKEđđ
Thanks, great video and some great tips. Stay safe.
Thanks Stigg ... MIKEđđ
well mike two legend in one film the bike and mike great trip out for us all the best from trev in sussex
Ah hi Trev! I hope you're well.
@@MikeBrowne yes thanks mike all the best from us to you
Loved it, more please. You have a knack of showing there are more ways to look at a potential photo, I looked at the light on the tree trunks on the avenue and thought I like that until you went up the other end and they were back lit and that looked good too. Take home message explore your options. Like the little talk about your bike first up, having similar process of elimination problems with a Disco 2 so I had to laugh. Looking forward to the next video.
Thanks Lisa - I'm glad you like the way I roll....
Warning: digressions (and brackets) aplenty...
Mike, superb again, thank you.
I may have said this on another biker vid-tour but I have been following you since your Avebury-perspective vids - you were my first YT sub, I think (under a defunct account). I have phone-chatted with you and used your course. Each and every time you have been helpful, with all sorts of brilliant tips and tutorials. I did feel with competitions and websites etc you slightly moved-away from tutorials (after all, from your perspective (!) I guess you had covered them all). But I really am delighted to see your return to what you do better than any other YT photography channel of which I know (and I know a great many) - ie teaching. To my mind, your nearest "rivals" are Tony & Chelsea Northrup (YT channel), who are excellent but I still think the way you put things for newcomers to an idea (that is, even experienced photographers who are learning a new technique) is unsurpassed.
I am delighted that you seem to have your mojo in full flight with these biker rides (though I would prefer a voice-over when you are actually biking, as I sometimes fear for your safety if chatting with us). But these are superb vids, full of interest about geography, history and culture - something akin to "Foxes Afloat" - a YT channel about two blokes usually on a narrowboat who, as they journey, inform us of the environ, as you are doing (for those interested, check-out their recent Loch Ness other-boating videos).
When you arrive, all that careful - but with an easy delivery - instruction is there. Jimmy Young, the brill DJ, once said treat a microphone as if you are just having a chat with one friend - and everyone will think they are that person. That is your technique, too; it is a brilliant one for teaching. (The Foxes Afloat chaps do that, too, though their aim is more slanted to entertainment).
I was watching Adam Gibbs (YT), t'other day, in Scotland. (NB: Gibbs is a British-born award-winning landscape photographer who has lived in BC, Canada for most of his life and travels, explaining landscape photography as he does so. Also highly recommended). He was explaining how to multi-shoot images, not just for bracketed-exposure and focus-stacking but (this was new to me) also for rough/smooth. - i.e. coastal photography: take long exposures for cotton-wool water and quick ones for movement then, in post-production, blend them to offer a unique image with silk-smooth water which actually has some movement in places. Anyway-up I was wondering if you would be interesting in covering multi-exposure images and the various applications of it and methods. Just an idea for a future series.
Anyway, when we're next at the Calshot beach-huts or the Keyhaven-Lymington Solent Way or the Lymington harbour café, (some of Mike's fav photo-spots) we'll certainly drink a coffee or something (with close-up perspectives, of course) to you and your superb channel. Many thanks for all your years of excellent - and friendly - education and so great to see this fab new series. Yours is the first YT channel new photographers should subscribe to and then remain with.
All the best, Mike, (from the middle of your county). Cheers.
Brilliant production. I can appreciate how long that took to put together. Still love the new aspect to your new series. You are putty the colour back into my gloomy world.Thanks Mike.
Thanks Chatteris. I apprieciate that. each of these vids is around 25 - 30 hours work. Glad you like them buddy ... MIKEđđ
lovely scenery- great video
Thanks Martin ... MIKEđđ
I can't rate your vlogs highly enough Mike, brilliant! The avenue of trees shot is superb and the two people add a great aspect of scale, it reminds me a little of Henry cartier Bresson's trees shot but I don't think any people are in it. I love using a human element for scale when I can.
Excellent stuff Mike đđđ
Thank David ... MIKEđđ
Another great vlog Mike, fantastic weather for your ride out, history, food, photography guidance all thrown in, brilliant! Youâre on a winner with this format,but, then again, everything you do for us followers is first class, thank you.
Wow, thanks Laurence ... MIKEđđ
Why have I never heard of Knowlton? Amazing place. Thanks for sharing Mike.
I'm guessing you're a local?
I absolutely love your channel
Thank you so much Raphael - have you seen my website? www.photographycourses.biz/
I have been watching your videos for about a month now after having just discovered you. You are a born Teacher, and you make what would seem to be a complicated thing so simple ! I also just started your Masterclass in Photography and am loving it! can't complement you enough, Thanks from the states.
Thanks Brian - and I'm so glad you're enjoying my Masterclass in Photography too.
I am really enjoying these little trips by bike. Thank you, Mike.
Thanks Ian ... MIKEđđ
Another great video from mike, love how he makes thing simple and doesnt bamboozzle us with to much technical aspects of photography
Thanks Brendon - most of the time I'm just trying not to bamboozle myself!
Having just read some of the comments Iâm not sure I can really add much to whatâs been said except brilliant, insightful, interesting and enjoyable. I live not that far away from you near Swindon and have been to some of the places you visit but from now whenever I visit similar places I will look at them completely differently (I hope) with my photographs hat on rather than an interested visitor on a day out. Thanks again.
Great to hear Ian... sounds like you're close enough to come on a weekend workshop! www.photographycourses.biz/workshops/uk-south-coast
Thanks!
Thank you Irene đ
Beautiful scenery Mike and good choice of music. I moved to Australia 1969 and live in Tasmania now but watching your tours is tugging at my heart strings. The huge scope of scenery my nikon would drool over!!
Thanks Sarah. Tas is alovely place too... MIKEđđ
Great technique Mike. đđđ Love the ride...
Thank you Jacque... I'm planning photo rides for 2022 if that's up your street...?! đïž
@@MikeBrowne If you want to take a swin Mike. I am in New Brunswick, Canada.đ
Great choice of music!
Thanks Bob.... MIKEđđ
Very good video sir. Background sounds when you ride is also very nice. Thank you for sharing this video. Keep it up đ
Thank Dr ... MIKEđđ
Wonderful video Mike.
Thank you đ
Thank you Mike for putting so much time and effort into these videos. Not only is the scenery beautiful but I still get some excellent pointers on improving my photography. Great stuff đđđ
Thank Brandon - happy to help ... MIKEđđ
Thanks again Mike for a wonderful cruise in the countryside. Some great shots you took during your ride. Looking forward to your next trip into the country.
Thanks David ... MIKEđđ
Thanks Mike. This was brilliant and I loved all the shots. For me, I loved the colour images. The one of the people walking down the road was gorgeous. Thanks for the effort. I know what it's like getting off the bike and sorting out all the kit. You talk yourself out of it! What a beautiful ride you had. Thanks again. đđđđ
Thanks Chris. Yes it's hard to stop, unpack and mess about. I'll be doing some research and making some vids about getting best out of a phone or small pocket sized cameras too.. ... MIKEđđ
@@MikeBrowne Sounds great Mike. Look forward to it.
Thanks Mike for showing around Dorset, a lovely county. I need to go and expolore it for myself. The old red bike has given you great service by the sound of things:)
Thanks. It certainly has.. And yes, I think we all should get out end explore more. So much to see and life's short.. ... MIKEđđ
I've got a compact 10-24mm APS-C Tamron that happily fills a full frame sensor from ~13mm to 24mm... I must say, much to my wife's chagrin, you're doing a wonderful job of convincing me to get "back on the bike". ;)
Please! No angry women at my door.....
I so enjoy your videos! Traveling through the English countryside is just so wonderful and peaceful. Itâs like being there. Youâre thoughts on composition are so interesting to listen to also. Iâm at the very beginning of my journey in photography and I just absolutely love your common sense approach to this hobby. It gives me hope that I too can do this and get great results like you. Thank you so very much!
That's really great to hear Lancer productions - there are many more resources on my website..www.photographycourses.biz/
Another nice video, Mike. Love the country roads and Knowlton Church.
Thanks Peter ... MIKEđđ
21:00 mark...I was thinking that when you were driving through the line of trees..Seeing a picture actually on the bike, seeing the cockpit..the road in focus and the trees blurry moving by fast. Whatever that technique is called. It seems like it would have worked so well in that moment..
Loving these videos. My family were gamekeepers on the estate of Lord Montagu of Beaulieu in the 50s and 60s. Watching these videos of your rides in and around the New Forest from my house in Los Angeles in a perfect way to spend part of my Sunday morning.
Although now suddenly I'm feeling jealous.....
Thanks
Thank you for your support Andy. Apprieciate it ... MIKEđđ
Really loving the hands-on photography advice. Your road trips are similar to how I am often shooting and works so much better than listening to someone talk about what to do in a studio. Living in the US, I'm constantly blown away by how much history is packed into every square inch of England. The town I live in was founded in the 1830s, which is relatively old around here.
Thanks Wagon Pilot Adventures. Yes our infrastructue has been around for centuries which is one reason we have all these great, empty, windy little back roads. Each time a new road's built, traffic on the old one reduces...... MIKEđđ
Love this outings on the bike, unfortunately CZcams thinks itâs okay to show me the same ad every 5 min or less!!!!!
No only this channel but every channel for the last 2 days!!!!
Thanks - sorry the YT algorithm's making a mess of it... MIKEđđ
Brilliant video Mr Mike getting more& more ideas from you Sir looking forward to some more video đđ·
Many thanks mahesh - more on the way ... MIKEđđ
Loving these trips out on your bike with your camera. My favourite is definitely the long lens one with the human element.
Thanks Ivan ... MIKEđđ
I knew I recognised this place from one of your super old videos... Think it was shot at sunset and there was a focus on the way the shadows were dropping on the various walls of the church.
I have lots of local haunts - well remembered.
Bedankt
Thank you for your support Paul.. Mike đđâșïžđđđïž
Fantastic vlog again Mike. Loving ur legend hope to keep my street scrambler forever as it was a 50th birthday present to myself 2 years agođ. Ride safe brother.
You too Andy.. Have you thought about bringing the Street Scrambler along on the May Photo Biker workshop? Link below ... MIKEđđ

Once again really great vid and all credit for getting 125000 miles on the Triumph
Gary.
Thanks Gary ... MIKEđđ
Knowlton and Moor Crichel, both lovely locations. Haven't been cycling that way for years, you've prompted me to go look as a change from aimless wandering around the Forest đČđ
Good one NeilT. Always good to change your scenery and surroundings as often as possible ... MIKEđđ
Another great video! Dorset is so lovely and you had such a gorgeous day for landscapes. Trees are one of my favorite subjects, I really like the low angle perspective shot you took here. And I need to consider lying on the ground more to get interesting angles as you did inside the castle :) Look forward to the next edition of Photo Biker!
Thanks Diane ... MIKEđđ
Another great video Mike, Knowlton Church is one of my favourite spots. I drive tthrough the beech avenue by Kingston Lacey every day on the way to and from my office. I have seen it at sunrise and sunset, i have also seen it in all weather conditions. I keep saying i'm going to leave earlier so i can stop snd get some shots but i still haven't done it yet.
It's worth it - but the early mornings can be a de-motivator!
@@MikeBrowne yeah, I know it would be worth it but I really am not a morning person. I will do it one day, with a large flask of strong coffee ;-)
Iâm going to stop watching this series, every time I do I want to buy a bloody bike đ€Ł, Iâve still got all my gear so itâs so tempting. All joking aside, great video again, what a beautiful day, bet it was cold though. Lovely images as well, I liked the tower one best. Good stuff, thanks Mike
Thanks. Get one - get one.. It's awesome - and you could come on the Photo Biker workshop too ... MIKEđđ
Oh hell, are you really doing a bikers photography workshop? That sounds so much fun, I need to relight my love for photography, not touched my cameras for months that could be the way forward.
Another great video! I love Dorset. Didnât know about the possible correction of distortion using a wide-angle lens.
Thanks Sue. ... MIKEđđ
I think your last photos of the trees with the long lens. Might have worked really well in the portrait frame.
Might have, it's all down to our individual preference.. ... MIKEđđ
Great Video and Excellent Work as always Mike !!! I would love to see here on my home town :) Why don't you consider coming for a ride here in Porto ;) Um Abraço
đ”đč Maybe one day if I'm lucky...
As alway with your videos very enjoyable and interesting. The only thing you keep getting wrong of my wife for giving me ideas đ because she will have to take me out
Fantastic Graeme ... MIKEđđ
Hi Mike, great video! I love the little Norman church shots. I enjoyed learning about Winbourne. I really liked the shot of the trees with the long lens a lot!
When you are walking and taking, are you using your GoPro on a tripod? I think I'm seeing that right by your shadow.
What are you doing for your audio?
How do you attach your GoPro to your handlebars?
Have you done a video on how you shoot these wonderful traveling videos?
I'm asking all these questions because when the weather is better I'd love to do what you're doing on my bicycle. Old Broad On A Bike!
Thanks Mia. Gopro and others make lots of accessories and mounts to attachem to pretty much anything. Google and find loads. I use a Rode lavalier mic inside the helmet with a gopro audio converter. Off the bike - Rode wireless Go lav mics. Gopro mounted on tripod / balanced on seat of bike or wherever I put it really.. I learnt by doing CZcamsr Noraly (Itchy Boots) excellent online courses.

Thanks for coming along ... MIKEđđ
Hello my friend how's things. Good to se you back on the Red Legend! What model is she? I can't tell? By the way, that was a very profound thought with regard to the trees! It's not something you often think about when you look at trees, particularly really old trees. The fact that the person who planted them won't ever get to see them at their best. Kinda sad really.
Thanks Ash. It's a Triumph Legend 900 - hence the name.. ... MIKEđđ
No problem. You know I've always enjoyed watching your videos. đ
@@MikeBrowne Oh yeah! Never thought of that! D'oh! đ€Ł
One hundred and twenty five thousand miles. And only an air leak. Those are BMW motorcycle figures but wouldnât give Triumph that (I really really need to get my bike ready).
