The Little Waterfalls of the Peak District - Wyming Brook

- I take a stroll along the banks of the Wyming Brook, reopened after recent bridge repair. I manage to catch a little light before the rain rolls in and it is definitely an uplifting morning.

Good to see the bridges have been tastefully restored, a little weathering before autumn kicks in will do nicely. Good to see you a little more cheerful m8, that's what a visit to Wyming can do.😀
It lifted me, but I’m still under the weather…. Such as the weather is….
Brilliant shots yet again Eddie! Thoroughly enjoyed that one. It'd be great to see you sit down and talk us through some of your portfolio shots and compositions... Maybe save that for a rainy day 😅
Great idea!
Nice video Eddie with some lovely shots, particularly liked the one at 8.20 although you only put this up briefly. Good to see you in a happy place and obviously really enjoying taking your time finding nice compositions. 👏👏
Thanks, yeah definitely happier after a week of feeling miserable due to a bloody nasty cold. It was a lovely morning there. I spent a lot of time just sitting and watching the brook. Highly recommended. If you want to see any of the shots just let me know and I’ll add them to Facebook/Instagram
Sorry to hear you were unwell but good that you are getting through it. Thanks for reminding me of Wyming Brook; it may be a walk destination this weekend! Good video.
I can definitely recommend it!
Didn’t realise it was back open. Will get myself over there in the next few weeks. Great vid and some nice shots 👍
Have fun!
Certainly a different approach there Mr S. Some nice aspects of the brook as well.
Thanks Paul. I always think that rather saying ‘this is how it’s done’, which would be ridiculous, it’s better to simply say, ‘this is how I do it.’
Tell that little wanky thing about foreground objects while late AA isn't hovering above you. A chapter in one of his books is dedicated to what he called "the near far approach". I remember one of his photos of a dried out tree litterally on the near edge of something looking like Grand Canyon. Guess which part was the "near" subject? Without that tree the image would never have reached the walls of most art exhibitions in the world. But i can see what you mean when you choose an ugly boulder ;O) and by the way, AA was not just playing with an obvious foreground, he was exercising the aerial perspective, i.e., a super sharp and clear foreground and the rest of the scene gradually disappearing in the haze.
For followers who don’t know, AA is Ansel Adams, well worth anyone looking up to see his eye at work for landscape work. A legend in the game.
Wanky ,mystical shots ??? You will be hereby known as Wankalf Tossing wizard of the Canon. Great video (as always) and brilliant images .
I accept that title. Gracefully.
Although I dont do photography, this gives me better ideas for cinematography, suppose a composition is good for both stills and filming
Absolutely, watch Chris Homer’s videos to see how the composition of his scenes tells so much with little to no dialogue. Aidin Robbins also shows off next level cinematography to help tell his stories.
Eddie it would be good to see your settings for each shot. But another great vid
Thanks Stephen, I’m a lazy prick. If you ever want to know the settings of a shot or any spec of gear just ask. Always happy to share.
Have you experimented with merging images of moving water photographed at different shutter speeds, e.g. from frozen in time over a bit blurred to the long milky-like exposures. The most exposed areas look burned out in lack of details, even when they aren't. The purpose should be to "preserve" some details in the longest exposures. I am not a fan of turning moving water into rivers of white plastic, so, imo., a minimum of details indicating the direction of the flow looks more natural. To support my point, I have really with my naked eye and my brain turned off! (it will sharpen the flow) tried to concentrate on how falling water looks like on my retinas. I get a very blurred image but with obvious directional structure and not that white.
I have blended a few scenes. I first saw this being used by Gavin Hardcastle and he produced a lovely result and I agree, wholly with your thoughts.
As I’m aimed at people getting into photography I try to keep the shots simple and with minimal editing, not that they wouldn’t benefit, but because learning Photoshop is a separate thing in scale and application.
I cut up the cow, how you cook it is up to you.
@@EddieSkelson I offered Hardcastle - or maybe it was Gibbs - the idea while they were making "plastic" of the beautiful waterfalls of Western Canada, and I believe the idea was tested and used. Of course none of them would ever confirm to have benefitted from any intellectual support from outside their established community. But at least Hardcastle's long exposures of water have become more balanced within the last couple of years. The multilayered method can also be used with Affinity Photo 2, in the case people have had enough of lifelong subscriptions and the new occupation of their intellectual property - and want to leave Adobe. The free Darktable raw manager is even superior to Adobe Camera Raw - it just feels different at the beginning.
