👍Two great pieces of advice, among many. 'Get yourself out there'. I'm probably more than twice your age and still need that suggestion to remind me. And the perennial, 'practice practice practice'. The three magic words. I visited much of the region you see every time you venture out, in my younger years. A big regret is I was usually carrying a rifle and rarely a camera. Never a trophy photographer as we hunted for meat in those days. I did eventually discard the rifle for a camera, but...
Thanks Will for a number of critical messages I took out of this, but I absolutely resonate with the "just get out there more and more" message. The benefits in that (being in nature) add up in so many other places in life and it is something I am trying to put in place this year. Already started camping out and loving it.
Will, in this video you talk about inspiration. Just want you to know that you are an absolute inspiration to me. You make me want to grab the camera and go outside shooting, but you also make me realize that if I come back with no good images (or no images at all), it's not a failure. Even the process of looking and seeing is useful. We are all so blessed by your openness in sharing these videos, and I love seeing you acknowledge how blessed you feel to be doing what you are doing. I can't imagine how great it would be to attend one of your workshops, but so thankful that I can learn so much from you through your online content. All the best to you!
Dude...this is possibly your best video yet. I'm keeping this one on speed dial...If I ever see someone asking for advice on composition etc, I'm sending them here.
I've been saying you are the best landscape photographer, and educator for around two years now. Everytime I see a new photographer in a FB group looking for landscape photography help, I direct them to your channel. I sincerely hope you keep growing exponentially this year. Truly, truly deserved. Cheers to you 2024!
As always , Thank you for your inspiration. Look forward to 2024 watching the channel. As you relay to us the word Practice, It is a huge part of it. Just one journey at a time. Good Luck in 2024.
There are more than enough "use this aperture, use that shutter speed, use the other ISO" videos already. While they may be good, it's always worth stepping back and taking a "meta look" at the larger picture (no pun intended). I'm terrible at convincing myself I'm going to screw up a shot (or even entire session) well before I've even started. That's a big one for me. I need to hear this. Thanks.
My first time on your channel. You are very inspiring! The best advice is definitely GET OUT THERE, which I have failed miserably at lately. Second best advice on this vid was to not force it. I will remember that. Like you, I learned much of what I know by trial and error over the years. I photographed many years before I even knew UA-cam existed. I am looking forward to more in 2024 and will check out your previous ones soon. Cheers.
Thanks for this. Been in a bit of a funk, and hardly touched the camera. This kicked my butt to grab it and take a walk outside more often. Much appreciated.
Hi Will, almost 4 weeks ago I was on a Portuguese island and I drove to the south coast for sunset photography on a beach, when I finally got there I suddenly realized I had left my tripod in the hotel room. So it was no longer possible to go back to the hotel for time reasons. I thought William always did it without a tripod, now I was forced to try. So I managed the impossible, that is, to 0.5 seconds. I think it's also a matter of practice. Unfortunately, my little story is a bit too long.
I’ve only been learning everything for 2 weeks, so very much a newbie but….Thankyou Will for everything you do, I learn something from you every single day (yes I watch your UA-cam videos & working my way through your courses every day) please keep making them or I’ll run out of information 😂 your calm easy teachings make it so easy for me to understand & you inspire me to get out there & enjoy nature! So thankyou you are amazing 🤩
Totally agree William, I have been in a rut for a few years now. But listening/watching this video & I agree. So 2024 for me is going to change !!!. Going to start off locally (Surrey Uk) just pop out look & see what happens......
Your works and thoughts are always a great inspiration. And I bought some great pieces. I am truly grateful to have found such wonderful works and inspiration. thanks so much.🙏❤️🔥
Great video and awesome advice. Everytine you show videos and photographs from Motukiekie beach I always get emotional. It’s a place I find very special to go and just hang out in. Even if I dont take any photos. Just a walk along the beach to the rocks is special. Keep up the awesome videos. You have such a genuine love for you job and that’s important.
I wasn't actually subscribed to your channel and my apologies I thought I was. I've seen some of your stuff on Facebook as well and your work does inspire me. I'm a landscape photographer in Albany Western Australia, which is an amazing piece of coast. I have travelled a bit as well, but my base is here and vented that professional landscape space now for a few years and really enjoying my journey. I have a passion for teaching people so your videos are always helpful and I love the lower shutter speed stuff that you do because I do a lot of that.Im very much a mindfulness based photographer. I agree with what you said about not going out with a plan all the time, especially with landscape photography, because the light might not be what you want. It might change so often, just go and see what's there let it be a Pandora's box of discovery I teach Photography as well not at your level but I teach beginner to medium level Photography in my community and I keep saying to my students is let the nature come to you so when you're in nature, just let it flow and that can sound really kind of nondirective but you become a better photographer through observation than necessarily trying to pre-construct something before you get there.
Great post! Totally agree regarding the "post" Most people out there in YT make it so so complicated, for no reason: probably to show off. I love using Luminosity masks...blend if.. name it! But I realize that less is more when it comes to editing. Cheers!
What a great video and message to kick off a new year of photography, so much to reflect on here in a time when more than ever people feel the pressure of things like social media to constantly be producing non stop epic content and the need to please an algorithm. Thanks for the words mate 👌
This summer we'll be going on a MAJOR road trip with my family, to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary - Taking a boat from Denmark, up to the Faroes and then Iceland. One week at each destination. It's gonna be the trip of a liftime, and probably the only time we'll have the funds to visit these places. It's been a very longtime dream of ours... I am petrified by the thought of going to these amazing places and "missing" my shots, because of my lack of skills or the fact that it's still a family vacation trip with kids and not a dedicated photography one where you wake up at 3am to get that amazing sunrise.
There’ll be moments that present themself to you and you’ll be there to capture it.Just soak those up and appreciate the family time. That’s worth more than any image.
@@WilliamPatinoPhotography Yes, definitely ! Lately i've been specifically NOT taking my camera with me on some trips, so that i don't end up experiencing the whole thing through a lens. I love photography, i love capturing our travels and other moments, experimenting and learning new stuff... but eventually it shifts into a "chore" and you have to stop yourself and enjoy the actual thing with your eyes. Then again, if i don't get at least a few epic vistas i know i WILL regret it for the rest of my life too, so i gotta try to do my best :)
Thanks so Much Will. I REALLY needed to hear this today. Sometimes it really does get you down being creative and not having an outlet for that creativity other than Social Media. Its a tough world out there on Instagram and Facebook. Great reminder to just get out there and enjoy it for the pure experience of nature. Living in Tassie I am totally spoilt yet the state govt is making it harder and harder for us to shoot in National Parks. They want us to have a business License to take a photograph if you intend to even just sell a postcard. The costs for this are so prohibitive and its made me question everything. Time to just get out there again and just breathe...Thank You!🙂🙂🙂
Great summary of your advice! Happy to have found your channel! You’re keeping it simple, hands-on and succinct! 🙌🏻 Will be travelling to NZ for February and March and will be out there trying to capture some of the beauty that’s everywhere in your country. Keep it up!! 🫶🏻
What a reassuring chat, Will, with great advice and wonderful examples. So pleased and excited for more photography adventures on your videos this year. Thank you!
Hi William, Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience with us. This video helped me a lot as I'm in kind of a rut. I hope you have a great 2024.
These are the exact tips I needed. I felt the tension and anxiety lift as I listened to you, William. I feel free. I don't have to get a good shot every time I go out. Thank you so much. This has been the best advice you have given me. And BTW, I love being a spectator on the sidelines of the world you see... it's exhilarating!
Great video and thank you for the inspiration! Haven’t picked up my camera in months as I’ve been in the creative doldrums so this was great. Also I can’t wait to visit New Zealand in 3 weeks, what a beautiful country!
Looking forward to another 12 months with your channel William, wise words appreciated from you to help us improve our mindset to hopefully improve our photography. Really like your editing style with the brushes. Thank you and have a great 2024.
I love this attitude so much. Beautiful photography is so simple at its core. I used to get flustered and frustrated about all of the different Photoshop tutorials and technqiues that I could potentially use. When in doubt, SIMPLIFY
William, your time out in the field, has giving you the opportunity to share your experience to us, I greatly appreciate your time and your experience to give me inspiration and tips on how to improve my skills, you’re an inspiration to many. Keep up the great work and thank you.
I first came across you when Nick Page had a wonderful conversation with you. t may have been last year.....I've been following along ewer since. Thanks for the great content, Will. Your honest, no nonsense and simple approach is joy, and incredibly instructive. You've really got a knack for teaching photography, especially what's really important about it (and it ain't a gazillion photoshop techniques)! Cheers
Thanks William, sage advice. I think we do start to overdo things but you stress the importance of keeping it simple. Over planning has been my problem, but I am learning to just take a scene in when you get there. Thanks .
with this video, i think...i'm going back of using DSLR ... actually yday, when i've watch some of your youtube...it inspire me today take out my DSLR and shoot...
I don't think I have ever heard the pinball machine comparison to compositional flow, but I like it!! Also, I appreciate your philosophy about just getting out there without necessarily having set expectations.
Hi Will thanks for the advice, this might be a boring subject to do a video on. And maybe it last part of what you’ve already said in this video about just getting out more. But I’d like to see how you find some of the more off the beaten path locations.
Hi. I've just found your channel whilst looking for some help on landscapes. I've subscribed and can't wait to watch the videos you make in 2024 and to also look back on your previous ones. I did pick up that you don't use a tripod. How do you do your long exposures? I really enjoy taking a lot of water scenes at the beach etc but would never think about trying it without a tripod
Thanks so much, that means a lot! My camera has stabilisation and I have steady hands and methods for shooting without the tripod. You'll see it in other videos. I have one coming up next week where I also show you can exposure blend in order to avoid the tripod. Thanks for following and I hope to see you in other videos :)
Your work is amazing. I have a constant struggle getting the sharpness I want in an image. I shoot with an A7RV and when I zoom in on an image the tiny Circle of Confusion, due to the small per pixel area always seems to yield such a shallow Depth of field. Most Sony lenses show a noticeable sharpness reduction at f/16, and f/8 or f/11 just don’t seem to be enough. Half of the time, focus bracketing is out of the question with wind unless I’m in the desert. I’d like to see a video about you manage this? Am I being too picky?
Depends on your focal length and where your focal point is hitting. I don’t have this issue to be honest. I’m always aiming for sharpness front to back.
Thank you very much - that is good to know. I typically shoot with 14mm GM, 16-35 GM or 20-70 G - mostly in the 14-35mm range. Guess I have not found that magic focus distance yet. (Of course, I also shoot longer landscapes, up to 400mm, but there is usually something specific I'm aiming for in those cases, and it is not as much of an issue). @@WilliamPatinoPhotography
Are you considered to be a pro? I've been into photography Since 2010. I love it! I shoot more for memories. Whether it's for me or others, it's very satisfying. All types, except Street. I don't get it. I started using LR last year. Before that, nothing. I had never used any software to edit my photos. It certainly is a game changer. Haven't been able to get motivated or find inspiration to push myself to find anything to shoot. I enjoy your videos. Thank you.
Thanks for all the love guys! Here's the SALE link to my latest masterclass on composition www.williampatinophotography.com/composition-masterclass

Hi. I've just found your channel whilst looking for some help on landscapes. I've subscribed and can't wait to watch the videos you make in 2024 and to also look back on your previous ones. I did pick up that you don't use a tripod. How do you do your long exposures? I really enjoy taking a lot of water scenes at the beach etc but would never think about trying it without a tripod

Are you considered to be a pro? I've been into photography Since 2010. I love it! I shoot more for memories. Whether it's for me or others, it's very satisfying. All types, except Street. I don't get it. I started using LR last year. Before that, nothing. I had never used any software to edit my photos. It certainly is a game changer. Haven't been able to get motivated or find inspiration to push myself to find anything to shoot. I enjoy your videos. Thank you.
noticed the dji mic are you using the osmo pocket 3 with mic for this ?
Nah, just GoPro and Sony A7R5.
Hi Wil, I like the fact you don't use a tripod. How do you take a photo of a waterfall and make the water flow?
You can shoot slow shutters handheld. Just need a mirrorless with ibis and some steady hands ;) cheers 👊🏻
Thanks, I'll try it this summer in Alaska
I want to be photographer and videographer
There's absolutley nothing redeemable about the thin Australian accent.
