Podgy Snapper Photography

Приєднався 30 тра 2022
I have been into photography for a number of years now but mainly shoot anything and everything. Here are a few images for you all to look at.
At 73 years young, I find myself defying the conventional notion of aging. Amidst the challenge of chronic inflammatory, demyelinating polyneuropathy, I've discovered an unexpected fountain of youth-photography. Venturing out with my camera not only defies the limitations of my condition but also becomes a therapeutic escape for my mind. My wife often remarks that my joy in pursuing this passion is palpable, a testament to the rejuvenating power of doing what I love.

WHATS IN MY BAG
It was a beautiful day here in Devon and with nothing to do but sit in the sun I decided to do a vlog about what I carry in my camera bag now that I haver cut back on the equipment that I carry.

Please feel free to watch people. I haven’t done a vlog in ages and I thought why not let’s give you all a laugh on this glorious sunny day in Devon and perhaps even Mr happy/Paul W Baker will even smile for once and that Colin alias Charlie will realize he does a good job. I decided to pop out to our local Grand Western Canal. It took some doing as I do not walk so well as well as having more ...

Well its a first for me at this moment in time. I havn't done a vlog for so long I have forgotten how to produce one. But here goes. I spent a few hours up on Exmoor shooting and then followed it up with a very nice cream tea. At 73 years young, I find myself defying the conventional notion of aging. Amidst the challenge of chronic inflammatory, demyelinating polyneuropathy, I've discovered an ...

Re-uploaded - EXMOOR AND THE EAST LYN
Переглядів 91Рік тому
I lost my old channel so here is the first re-upload featuring the East Lyn river that flows inland up to Watersmeet from Lynmouth. Lynmouth is a stunning town on the River Lyn in Devon, England. Lyn is a tributary of the River Exmoor, and the town is known for its medieval harbour and delightful Georgian buildings. In this video, I cover the highlights of my trip to Lynmouth and the East Lyn R...

Just a short introduction vid to explain where I have been and doing.
Good vlog. I have the same bag! 😀
Cheers mate. I absolutely love this bag. Thank you so much for your comment. Much appreciated.
Really enjoyed this one mate, a nice little insight into your kit, had to laugh at the end with you mimicking fallimg asleep ha 😴 😀
@@optical_creator thanks mate. Much appreciated. I wasn’t asleep though. I was just mimicking, watching one of you know who’s vlogs I don’t watch anymore. Could it be the man who is not named?
@podgysnapper5830 I know you were mimicking mate undid say that ha ha.
No promises but reasonably confident this midlander might have a trip down.
@@timday I hope you can make it Tim, be nice to see you again
You have it to easy
I know mate but I am OLD.
I love these videos you make, they are very watchable, even of you sleeping 😄 You have a lot of gear Sir! That meet-up sounds like a good idea, not sure if I'd be around in November, but you never know! ATB Dave.
So good of you to comment Simon. Much appreciated
The ending is how I am used to seeing you 😂 Great idea, keep reminding me and if I can I will try and join you. I’ll be doing a short later today which will explain. Ca n o n 🤮 stop yourself, you be a decent photographer if you moved from the dark side. All the best buddy
Good evening Paul and thanks for your constructive criticism ha ha. I will ask Darren and Steve to post it to the two groups nearer the time when I’ve done my homework and double checked the tide times and sunrise sunset but you will be the first to know.
@@podgysnapper5830 post it now so people have plenty of warning
Paul, I will try and do it in the next couple of days after I’ve checked the tide times and sunrise sunset and got hold of Darren and Steve
@@podgysnapper5830 Steve and Darren won’t care mate just post it when you’re ready
What no cake in the bag Yu? 😲 I'd be up for a visit in November (work allowing). Most campsites down there close at the end of September! So that may be an issue but we'll see 😁
Alan, it looks like it may be the second Friday in November as I’ve checked the tide times and sunrise sunset and it looks pretty good but I got a double check my findings before I post anything. Keep your eye on photo peeps and thumbs up group because I’ll ask them to post it on the group.
@@podgysnapper5830 Thanks Yu :-)
Looking forward to meeting you, you you
Nice bit of Can---------on gear there Mr, a great idea, unfortunately I don't have any spare days holiday left, but one to definitely think about 👍
Thanks for the comment Darren and I hope you enjoyed my little go at Vlogging as for a meet up weekend. I’m thinking possibly the second week in November because of the tide times and as it’s November, you don’t have to get up so early in the morning.
@@podgysnapper5830 Its the working until 10pm on the Friday night that's the issue 👍
Count Stumpy Dundee in mate! I'm up for all 3 of those. As usual I will be ensuring nobody is left behind....🤣 Have you explained to Paul W about bags opening at the back? 👌 Good to see another of your vlogs; keep them coming
I knew I could count on you stumpy for a comment and alike, but I think it’s rather good idea especially if you wanted to go to the valley of the rocks as well. I’ll keep you in mind and I will post the dates as and when I work it out.
You must have got a job lot on them bags 😂 A cracking array of equipment you have in that there bag Dave, good to see you putting some content out again. I vert much doubt with my current situation if I could get to the SW meet up but I am sure you will have chosen well a location for everyone to enjoy - lovely area to shoot if any of the group have not been that way. atb Al
Cheers, Alan I’m really must give you a shout and find out how you and Deb are doing. Sometimes I think I’ve done something wrong because you don’t call me anymore when we used to speak weekly never mind it is what it is.😢😂😊
Very pleased to see this vlog pop up in my FB feed this morning Dave. I've always enjoyed your photographic ventures and wondered what had become of you but pleased you have got behind the camera/drone/tech again; good for you👍
nice little vlog that mate great to see you and your good wife out and about, 1 other thing ill have less of that bit at the end mate, i hope your well.
Thanks mate but please remember its hard for me as I get older especialy with a face like a ___SKIN
Great to see you out and about with the camera again ! You’re looking well
Thankyou so much for your kind comment Darren. I'm not getting any younger but I still enjoy trying to put these not so good vlogs out from time to time.
About time you got back out with all that gear, must admit I like the drone work
Thank you, young Trevor much appreciated

Thank you so much for your second comment Kevin
A thoroughly enjoyable video. You are clearly enjoying yourself and that's the best reason for doing anything. Keep it up 🙂
Many thanks Steve for sparing a few moments to comment and I am glad you liked it. I had great fun making it and the funny thing is when I got home I realized I hadn’t taken any pictures. I was having so much fun.
Great seeing you back out, perhaps I will have another go as it’s been before COVID, you look like your enjoying it so keep going
Thanks mate for your comment. I was having a great time messing about with no pressure on me.
Great to see you out and about again Yu. Where's aunt Sally then Yu? 🤣

Cheers Alan. I just had fun.
That worked out well, you're all set for more vlogs now Dave! Wurzel Gummidge, I remember him. I hope you got your nice cup of tea and a slice of cake in the end. 🙂
Thank you, Simon. Appreciate it very much. Yes I got a cuppa tea at slice of cake and a bacon sandwich. Stay safe mate.
Great to see you out, poggy snapper is back 🎉
Cheers, Steve I will send you a PM and this will make you laugh
You make this enjoyable, good to get out. Nice subject, but it's quite nice without a leading line, doesn't need it in my opinion.
Thanks so much for taking the time to comment, much appreciated
Good to hear from you good sir, making me feel old with the worzel gummage 😁
Never mind Tim you’re only a youngster
Really like how you feel you don't have to hide where you are visiting like so many other "important" YT photographers.
It seems mean not to disclose locations. It’s great to share so everyone can enjoy.
Nice portfolio
Just re-discovered your channel Podgy. Good to see you back, best to you, looking forward to more videos and photos.
Well done you my friend, keep up the good work lovely neck of the woods 😉👍. I had a brother who ran a pub in Brixham unfortunately he's not with us anymore 😢.
Great set of captures my friend 👌
Great little video my friend 😀 👌
What a wonderful set of images!
Many thanks Simon
Good to see you out and about Dave, all the best for 2024.
Good morning Simon, thank you for taking the time to watch and comment.
@@podgysnapper5830 My pleasure good Sir!
Good to see you running like your local Marines mate. Keep it going pal
Ha-Ha nice one Mr..... Podgy.... nice to see you out and about again 😉👍
Enjoyed that....brought back some great memories of growing up close to the canal, and spending many many hours fishing in a lot of the areas you walked !
Thanks Steve. Is there anywhere that you wold like me to film.
Well done Podgy, nice to see you out and about and getting back into your photography again, and don't worry Spring is around the corner
Thanks Pete I’ve tried to call you but no answer. Will try again this week and by Christ my leg is aching now two days later.
Not boring at all, a very enjoyable trot. Walking down by the canal with a mate, and a break from life - just what I needed. Thanks for chat 😊
Thank you very much Tim but you’re too kind
Well done Yu 😁 Keep it up 😊
Many thanks yu yu
Just nice to see you out again and look forward to your next one including your usual cream tea at the end of the
Thanks Trevor, but it nearly killed me
Well done mate. Slow & gradual build up is the way. Happy new year 👌👍
Thank you Mark but I tell you what this CiDP is no joke
I now its boring but I enjoyed it. By the way my legs are killing me now.
What a fantastic location as you say, so many opportunities for plenty of images.👌👍
What a superb collection of images 👌👍
Great selection of podgey snaps. I can honestly see why you get sales on the them - I shoot stuff that probably doesn't appeal to others but can see your collection covers a wide portfolio. atb Al
Some brilliant images here, would be proud to have taken these myself
