Such a vast place in WA, commitment to the task is a must. The results are spectacular! A wonderful collection of images, making the effort very much worthwhile. Thanks Andrew for sharing the journey.
Thanks for that Phil, the drive can be daunting but once we were on the road, time flew and before we knew it, we were up there shooting. Don't they say it's not about the image but the journey 🤔 I more than happy to share mate, so glad you enjoyed it! 👍
Wow....blew my mind at the beginning when you said WA is 10 times the size of the UK. I thought driving 6 hours to the in-laws was a hard gig but it pales in comparison to your travels Andrew. The colours of the coastline from the drone footage was stunning and your final images were super too. What a location with all that unspoilt beauty
Haha, yeah Jimmy, there are advantages and disadvantages with a big state like this. There's an abundance of different landscapes to shoot, but the distances to reach those locations can be challenging. Having grown up in WA, I'm used to driving long distances. That's why when I was over in the UK in 2017, I didn't think twice about driving from Hastings on the south coast up to Glencoe for some landscape photography. 🤣
Glad you enjoyed it Helena, there's some much colour and texture to explore up in the Kimberley. I can see I'll back and explore more of this amazing country.
Great video Andrew, one of your best ever. Thanks very much for the aerial shots, the textures are fantastic and the layers of colour and shapes in those land and sea photos are awesome, I'm very muck looking forward to more episodes from this area on your channel, well done Sir. I rewatched the episode immediately over again as soon as it ended. Two thumbs up.
Cheers Craig, you're a legend. I'll see whether UA-cam can make a change and introduce a double thumbs up feature. Colours and textures is what it's all about up there. We take it to the next level in future episodes from this Kimberley. Thanks again mate! 👍👍🤣
@@Andrew_marr Mate you deserve all the likes you get from this video, Next video to the level you say ? That will be amazing but I'm expecting you to show a knockout Panorama, if you do I'll be a very happy viewer, cheers
Hi Andrew, really liked the drone shots and agree, your last shot was fabulous! The distances in Australia are huge to get places and its hard sometimes to drive past favourite spots to get to another. Looking forward to the rest of the series.
Cheers Gary, I was glad I hung around after sunset to take that last shot of the textures in the sand. The up side of the distances we need to drive is, if it was easy to get to some of these locations, potentially there'd be more people to contend with. Thanks again for your support mate! 👍
We are now entering the 5th month of lockdown where I live and as you may be able to guess our mental health is in decline. Being able to mentally escape to the places you just showed us it’s a breath of fresh air. Thank you for your video, it was an amazing place!
You've done it tough over there, Marieta. We had tight restrictions and border closures that started early, but things have eased off now with in the state I live. I am very luck to be able to move around, and with such a big state there's plenty to explore. I hope you are well both physically and mentally. If videos like this can provide a little escapism that's fantastic. Hopefully things will ease up and improve for you soon.
@@Andrew_marr thanks for your reply Andrew! Unfortunately European governments have proven to be inadequate to handle this crisis. They have been taking dumb decisions and people are not following the rules. Honestly watching videos like these, now more than ever are a big mental help. In my country interstate travel is not allowed so basically we are stuck wherever we are living. You are very lucky in Australia and have handled this better.
Thanks Robert, we are lucky enough to have a lifetime of photography just along the WA coastline. So diverse and spectacular. Thanks for your comment mate, cheers! 👍
Thanks for that John, I was glad I hung around after the sun set to take that shot. I think it was a unique way of capturing the textures in the sand, cheers mate! 👍
Thanks Ross, it is an incredible region of Australia with some epic locations. We didn't really scratch the surface but have lots of ideas where to shoot when we return. 😀
It's nice to see you with a beard🤣 Always look forward to your videos, great photography expert, I really enjoy your videos and such perfect work. Thanks for sharing Andrew :)
Haha, hopefully the beard suits me. I'm not entirely sure where I'm going with it. I'm very glad you get so much enjoyment out of the video mate. I look forward to your comments and thoughts each time, so thanks for sharing your feedback. 👍
G’day, Andrew. Pleased to see you got to the far north. I’ll be interested to see which way you went from Broome - up to Cape Leveque via Beagle Bay, Middle Lagoon, & Lombadina. The tastiest fish are around there, ie Bluebone, Spanish Flag & Northwest Snapper. OR did you take the rough road to Kalumburu. The impressive falls are Mitchell Falls. One needs more than one lifetime to take in the area! Anyway, I’m pleased to hear that you got to the far north, & were lucky to miss the wet season. It’s raining in Sydney these days.
Cheers Robert, it a fair way but I found the 3 days of driving not too hard and the way the car is set up makes it much easier. There are still plenty of regions up there that are closed off to the public to protect the communities from the pandemic. Unfortunately, we weren't able to go up to Cape Leveque, as it was closed to the public. We did get to Derby but not the way I might think! 🤔 We pretty much used Broome as our base for this trip you'll see in future videos why. There are so many falls in this region that we would have liked to shoot, so we are already planning a return trip.
Lovely video Andrew! Maybe an idea to put up a map and indicate where you are shooting? I'm not from Australia and unfortunately I've never visited your wonderful country either. So a map would be a great way to teach us about your country. Love the images you captured. Even though you shoot coast a lot they always seems a little different.
Thanks Pascal, I did actually dabble with this idea and couldn't work out how to do it with out a lot of messing around. I have not formal training in video creation, so I am limited to knowledge I've picked up my watching UA-cam videos. I haven't given up on the idea though. I agree, once I can work it out, I think it would be a great addition to some of these vlogs, cheers! 👍
Cheers Jeremy, as you'd know the tropics of Australia is full of incredible photographic locations and opportunities. I just wish we had the rain forests that you have over there, thanks mate! 👍
Amazing scenery Andrew. Those red cliffs remind me very much of Sedona in the state of Arizona here in the states. I've only been there once (pre-photog days unfortunately) but the red and green contrasts are incredible - made even more saturated at sunset. The last image was brilliant. Really nice abstract. Looking forward to the others.
Thanks Miguel, the landscapes up there are incredible. The red cliffs are amazing, we have a few different types of red cliffs in WA, all up north. I've made it a mission to visit some of these cliffs over the past few years. They are a fantastic feature to photograph.
Thanks mate, I've had the GoFar installed for 2 years now, It has two main features. One is it alerts you of the errors the car throws up. You don't get much information, I actually find this part quite useless. It also logs the kms I do and I this feature alone is worth the money. Plug it and away it goes, iPhone app is easy to use, all the data can be downloaded and printed off for Tax purposes.
Great Vlog Andrew. Spectacular scenery. I recently went out to Binalong Bay to do some drone footage. When I put it up in the air and flew it, the drone stopped flying at approx 100 metres and I received a message stating I had reached my maximum distance. I checked my settings and the maximum distance was 2000 metres. Have you ever experienced this?
Thanks for that Geoff, yeah I was blown away by the scenery. The only time I've had that experience was when I flew the drone following the car and then stopped the car continued to fly the drone with out landing and I received the alert. This was because I had flown over 2000m from where I had originally taken off. The drone started to tell me it was going to head back home and land, so I had the quickly land to reset it's home point. Has it happened again?
@@Andrew_marr Thanks for your response. I haven't been out since due to bad weather. Was thinking I might need to calibrate again before flying. Anyway, will let you know how I got on. Take care.
Ahhh.... wonderful Andrew. Holy cow, its been too long I've been to the Kimberleys. Those beautiful shots and images are just breathtaking. Thanks for this great episodes. Have you guys been to Eighty Miles Beach? We got stuck there waaayy out :-) but managed to shovel ourselfes out. I guess you also have been to Derby where the tide has some outer world range. Loved your final shot with the veins and reflected light, wonderful. Perfect timing and remarkably long exposure time (6s !) for those crips foreground reflection in those larger veins/valleys. Did you experiment with different ISO and shutter speed settings?
Thanks Jörg, it's a photographers playground up there with the colours and textures that can be found. The beaches are next level and stretch for miles. I have been to Eight Mile, but not on this trip. I lived up in the Pilbara for over 8 years, so there was plenty of opportunities for exploring and adventure, I wish I had done more photography back in those days up there. I considered increasing my ISO, but after a few test shots and checking the detail in the sand I didn't bother. The camera and tripod were on a solid surface, the sand was like concrete.I could have gone 20+ secs and it would have been fine. Cheers mate! 👍
Very nice photos, may I ask the drones ones are they like panos or composites cause they seem pretty high resolution/IQ for a drone. What drone (make/model) it is?
Thanks very much Dimitris, The drone images are all single shots. I tried a few panos on some shoots, but the conditions have to be right. It can be a challenge when you have a moving wave in the scene. Besides, it's amazing what that 20Mp camera can capture. I use a Mavic 2 Pro, that has a 1 inch sensor.
@@Andrew_marr yeah, Tnx somebody needs to have a word with these moving waves :-)) indeed very impressive sensor. I wish you are always in great health n spirit to grace us with such nice photos. This is a spot of Australia I have not visited (the northern coastlines) so it is very nice to see what is out there.
Haha, yeah I probably should have worn shoes, but I was just trying to fit in with the locals. True is I had to climb down those rocks twice, once to put the camera in place and a second for the footage. After I set up the camera, I climbed back up and scratched myself on one of the rocks. I didn't think much of it, but the scratch became infected and 11 days later I was in hospital up there with two courses of antibiotics. There's a tropic bacteria you can get up there when an open wound comes in contact with the rocks or the seawater. 😳 I might wear boots next time!
Your dedication is unmatched.
Really enjoyed this episode. Feels like the old ones!
Thanks Simon, I appreciate your feedback, I'm glad you enjoyed this one!
That last image is wow!

I love all the drone photos and the end shot with the 'flames' of water is just beautiful.
Thank you so much Nicola, I area was made to photograph from above, such beautiful colours ad textures. Thanks for sharing your feedback!
Ooof that texture in your last shot! 👌
Cheers Alex, yeah the textures and colours were stunning. I was glad I hang around after sunset to capture that last shot!

our state is amazing, love the colours, I have to get up there one day
Thanks Julie, the colours were stunning. If it fair hike to get up there, even longer if you're coming from from Albany. Definitely worth it though.

mate, I am not a fan of drone photography... but i must say these shots here are those most impressive ive seen. awesome work mate
Cheers mate, when the landscapes are this big, the drone is a great option. Hey where are abouts are you now days Matt, still over in Europe?
@@Andrew_marr oh for sure. But you did a fine job. Yes, I am still in Italy. Not much photography with the Covid though unfortunately.
@@MattBishopPhotography have you been able to travel round much?
@@Andrew_marr bugger all mate. Just with a 20km radius of Rome and very limited up until recently. Wish I was home mate!!!

Great video, fabulous location, awesome shots (as always) Andrew. Did I notice a rock almost the shape of Australia at 10:57 in the drone footage?
Nice pickup Andrew, I actually hadn't noticed it. Too busy not crashing the drone or getting the colour grading right! 🤣
