Glen Coe was my first video where you gave a wee bit of history as well as stunning vistas. I liked that. Not too much text to overwhelm, the views do that all on their own. And 50? Aye right, 30 if you’re a day!
Hey Lindsay! Really glad you liked the video. Think I'm going to do a few more like this and hoping to get back to Glencoe this weekend!!! Unfortunately true about my age and feeling every day of 50!!!🏴🏴🏴🤣🤣🤣🤣
David- I really enjoy your videos. I just got back into photography after a 30 year hiatus. So, while I really enjoy the history of Scotland you provide and the gear appraisals (very useful). I would really appreciate understanding what you see and feel that makes you press the shutter at any given moment. I understand the mechanics and compositional aspects of photography. It’s the visional aspects that sometimes elude me. Thanks and keep up the good work!
Hey Mike! Thanks for the really nice comments and also taking the time to message! I’m over the moon to hear you are back at it after 30 years!!😳😁 I only took photography up just about two and a half years ago after I had a terrible accident which stopped me being able to play my guitar which I had done for 40 years. Instead of getting depressed about it, I scratched my artistic itch by getting into photography. Literally the best thing I ever did! I love your question and I think I will dedicate a video to that subject. It’s sometimes difficult to say what I see, sometimes something is undeniably intriguing and other times you have to work a little harder on the composition of the image. For example, you might have a wonderful subject in front of you (castle, bridge, mountain etc) but to make the image stand out from being a holiday snap, you need to work the foreground or look for natural framing from a tree or flowers or even just tall grass! When you find your subject, try and think of an angle or approach that others might not. That’s when it becomes fulfilling, challenging and rewarding all at the same time!! I hope this helps my friend!
I bought a tentbox! You need a memory foam topper with a self inflate mat under the topper, you deflate in the morning so it’ll close in the morning! Otherwise it’s like sleeping on an ironing board! I think you should do what you like and feel intrigued by. That will change from time to time. A stunning video as always. Your chat interspersed with beauty is more than anyone could want.
You bought one!!!!!🥳 Have you been away in it yet?🤔 I have the mattress topper and it made a world of difference! Thanks for your comments! They will definitely help decide on my way forward. Happy travels!!😊😊😊😊🤗🤗🤗🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴
Yes, we went to argyle 3 nights! Planning Glencoe over October break. Gathering all we needed was quite something but got it now! Lots of trial and error ahead but fun and freedom!!!
Good to see you back david, missed the banter from your videos, loving the images from glencoe and surrounding areas. For me what initially attracted me to the channel was that your scottish, your local to myself which meant cover local areas to me to give me ideas for new areas to visit when i get out and about. The banter/humour makes a big difference to it helps keep you engaged with the viewers yeah we all make mistakes and its good to include these from time to time makes it more relatable. As we all know we dont always have perfect days out there's always something that goes wrong but its about how you overcome and move forward. Your channel will change from time to time but it all still focuses around the core of your photographic journey and what makes you achieve this, wish you all the best with your channel and maybe 1 day bump into travelling around scotland.
Morning Scott!!! Thanks for taking the time to write such a lengthy and spot on comment my friend!!! I'm going to shake things up a bit but my locations will remain in Scotland. I think I just want to add some more vlog stuff to it too! Where are you off on your travels next?🏴🤗🤗🏴🤗😊🏴
superb..keep up the hard graft that it takes to do a channel ..im currenty sat in glencoe in the pishing rain for day 2 now waoting on weather window 🙈...all in the waiting ...
Patience is definitely key but I need to up my video schedule and stop letting life getting in the way!! Got a lot of new ideas planned for the coming months! Really appreciateyour support and feedback my friend😊😊🏴🏴🤗🤔🏴🏴🤗🤗😊
Hey Mate! I dont see why you cant make photography advice videos with some short history details? I find your videos tell a story of your day the advice and history all adds to that story! Absolutely keep the tentbox and get out there and make us more content! See you in the next one! :)
Cheers brother!!! Can't wait to get back to get the next one put together! Currently in Cyprus WITHOUT my camera!! Taking a week to chill out and fetthe batteries charged ready for a slew of Autumn videos!!😊😊🤗🤗🏴🏴🤗🤗
