My Addiction and Health Issues + Landscape Photography in Autumn

This is a veritable landscape photography extravaganza. First I dazzle you with the richest fall colours you've ever seen, then I take you to two beautiful waterfalls at an enchanted forest. After that I top it all off with a mountain seascape of pure gold.
What could be better than an adventure where I get to shoot with my wide angle lens, my telephoto AND polish off a spectacular drone panorama during sunrise? The only thing that would make it better is some popcorn which I manage to gorge down with the unbridled greed of a life insurance salesman.
However, it's not all unicorns and rainbows. I give you the full scoop on my addiction and health issues, Simon shows his weird food fetish, takes a fall and crashes his drone...twice.
Amanda reveals her insulting plans for my Christmas gifts and seems unimpressed by my dazzling gesture of generosity.
Will I succumb to diabetes and high blood pressure due to my addictions; will Simon ever recover his dignity and does Amanda really think she can get away with giving me a treadmill for Christmas?
There's really only one way to find out.
Hit play, then hit like.

Try audiobooks for sleep on youtube or audiobooks in general, take your mind of trying to sleep, pull you into the story lull you to sleep with sheer boredom. I swear by it use to suffer big with the grimsomnia
Insomnia? Kale. Nothing better.
@@paulquirk1986 But...kale.
For SLEEP- What helped me immensely was MELATONIN. 1 or 2 3mg chewables is all you need. I've had lack of sleep due to pain (arthritis) for almost 20 yrs. 1-2 hours sleep, up...1 or 2 again, up...repeat.
I actually have gotten a few full 8's with the Melatonin. Natural, and better than more meds you don't need.
Hope it helps.
Oh, by the way…regarding insomnia - NO afternoon napping, take melatonin and magnesium - and NO blue screen light after 10 and your sleep will improve. LOVE all the humour in your posts!
I was insomniac for 20+ years. What fixed it in the end was cutting all carbohydrates from my diet. Took 4 days and I slept the whole night, every night. I also lost 10 kilos and I didn't even try. Plus joint pain gone. No shit, seriously. Hope it helps.
I'll give it a go. Thanks Rod.
As jealous as I am of the locations you are shooting in, I am much more jealous of your skill with compositions. Damn, you've got an eye, Gavin!
Thanks Jerry :)
Bras d'Or Lake? I drive 2000 miles/3200 km to get to Nova Scotia once every several years. Gorgeous!
Hi Gavin , my best mate burned the wick at both ends for years running his business and trying to stay in contact with family and friends spread across the world in different time zones , despite many warnings that his body would catch up with him including driving an RV in Canada with his eyes shut he died here in NZ in a motor accident of his making when he went to sleep in the family Toyota and had a head on with a 4x4. Don’t be that guy, and I know this is going to hurt and initially give you two weeks of headaches you’ve got to give up the caffeine addition , I did four years ago and believe me it made a hell of a difference to my sleep and anxiety levels. BTW love those autumn shots 😀
As dramatic as that sounds, there is a message here. You won't see the effects of go go go until you see them. By them it is a bit too late....
We are really bad at pushing you, we would love to see the next video RIGHT NOW, but that pressure, if you are not sleeping, it is killing you.
I was a physician back in my country, I probably do know what I am talking about but that is irrelevant. The business is very important and we all get it, but try and look ahead and see where all these efforts are taking you, not the business, I mean you. Finding the balance is hard, the pressure is big, but disregarding your health is probably not a good plan. Just a though bro. This is Orlando from Vantage Point P. Cheers.
Sometimes I wonder why you bother with that fancy Sony. The drone images are spectacular and no heavy breathing, no sweating, no bugs. You don't even have to get out of your chair. Win win!
I’m discovering the same. My drone images so often beat the hard-earned shots with my R5, I’m sometimes tempted to shoot only aerials!
Therefore proving that you don't need anything bigger than micro 4/3rdsfor landscape photography. 🤣
@@brianlaunchbury4491 Correct! And every time I lust after a 100MP camera, I have to remind myself that some of my best images came from my little Air 2S, which is even smaller. Composition. Subject. Light. Then camera. 😄
Yes the drone imaging is wonderful.
😂
Wow great to see Simon on your Channel, Sorry to hear that you have problems sleeping, hope you sort it soon . Great Video thank you.
Sorry your not sleeping well, its awful. I got over most of my insomnia with listening to audiobooks as I was falling asleep (soothing ones) and using them if I woke up later. I think the audiobooks got my mind of daily concerns and I could drop off listening to them rTher than trying to force myself to sleep. I cut my screen time, which was getting out of hand and stopped using screens after 10pm. I upped my walking a bit and checked my meds online (in 'users' web sites - the official ones seem to miss what appear to be fairly common side effects) and changed some and am now sleeping OK most nights. Hope you get your insomnia sorted and get back to feeling your usual lively and flatulent self!!
I love your reno series and your very dry, sarcastic sense of humor. You make it so much more entertaining....I am from BC, but now live in Vegas. I look forward to your reno and what looks and sayings you do. Must say I think your lovely wife is a saint.....your a handful but a ray of joy. Keep being you!❤😂
Epic drone Landscape…⭐️⭐️⭐️👍👍👍
I was hoping for some footage of the drone low-battery-auto-landing-over-the-ocean adventure.
I was too stressed to film it...
The challenge with autumn colors is every year their intensity and timing change so drastically. But that is what makes them so special.
It was nice to revisit the gnarly tree ... disappointing that the light and leaves did not cooperate. I congratulate Amanda on what seems to be the best poker face In the midst of unrelenting foolishness.
Simon the best!
Oh..errm..appreciate your videos so much Gavin🙌
This year in New Jersey has to be the most beautiful fall season in many years. The colors from yellow, red and orange was so amazing to photograph.
What a beautiful area and gorgeous photos♥️I love all the seasons but autumn is especially beautiful 🍁
Hi Gavin, great video as usual, beautiful photographs too. Your vlogs and other photographers vlogs (yes Im sorry I do watch other vloggers) are keeping me sane at the moment as I've just left hospital having had total knee replacement surgery so no getting out and about for a number of weeks!. Also Gavin you really need to take care of your own health too, look after youself mucka and again a big thankyou from me.
Steve Hassall
Burst out laughing at your response to the treadmill. Northerner same you you.
That Chuntering Ponce Falls composition by the bridge will look almost as good in early Spring when the new leaves have that light yellow-green glow. Spring runoff might make the stream hard to wade without appropriate footwear though (waders, not flip-flops). Sounds like a good time of year to get up there. 😉
Normally I would have manned up with appropriate footwear but there were too many dog cigars around for my liking.
It's manageable when it's soft......light. phew glad you completed that sentence 😅 5:20 years of sunrise and sunsets has taken its toll on your sleep pattern. I had similar issues when I worked nights. I could never sleep. The body requires normal sleeping ours, we arnt designed to be awake at all hours. CBD is a good shout for this. Worked for me just to help relax the body. Sounds mad but a few totes on a joint will do no harm either. Like everything, it's fine in moderation and less harmful than alcohol.
Throw those carbs in the garbage. Try to keep the carbs under 100 per day, no sugar. Weight and blood pressure will drop quickly. Some nice shots and drone footage is spot on.
I watched this (and then a few others) in a hotel room on a 55inch Samsung TV, and it looks fantastic, especially the drone footage. Well done, Gavin, as usual!
OMG! I point out ‘Recto Verso’ every time I see it!
I told my wife ‘it’s what happens when you don’t get enough fibre!’
Great video!
Beautiful scenery…beautiful music….beautiful voice…brilliant photos!
FlipSides are the best!!! English man and Irish man living in Canada addicted to Flips!! Lol
I haven’t slept a full night in years. I did a sleep study that said nothing was wrong and was going for a second one when the world was put on hold but shockingly healthcare in Canada isn’t as good as we tell other countries it is. No appointment in sight.
Good luck to you with the issue because I gave up trying to get help in this country
That is some of the most beautiful waterfall pictures I have seen in a long time. Living in Utah many years ago we had many waterfall locations in Immigration Canyon, and in the Spring, I did the same thing. The new leaves would offer some really outstanding shots in the existing light near the falls. Great job to you. As for your health.....Never allow your efforts and life to cause issues. I was the same way sleep wise until I turned 60, then I forced myself to sleep, but it did cause issues with my health, prior to that age and I knew I had to take over keeping myself well.
Those drone shots are epic.
it's so great when I notice over my morning coffee that you have a new episode. the day starts great because your humor makes me smile😊.
The autumn colors at the end look amazing, pano was perfect!!! For your sleeping problem, you can try to get a hot tea (no sugar) 1 hour before you go to bed. It works for me!!
As one who also suffers from insomnia at times, I find its usually that I can't turn off my brain, no matter how tired I am. So a few tricks that work for me, some nature music or a movie that I've seen a ton of times. Volume has to be set to a level that distracts the brain but doesn't engage it. Also, caffeine after noon hour tends to be a tough one for me. Hope you can find the cure. Love the video. Simon seems to have warmed up to your shenanigans and he's got a good sense of humour.
Thanks for sharing about your insomnia. It's an awful thing. Had it in college and was down to one hour of sleep some days. It resolved after some issues causing anxiety and depression were addressed. Yoga in the middle of the day helps. Before bed it gets me too pumped up. Maybe I'm weird that way. Oh, and thought I'm sure you've read the advice about not using backlit screens and hour or two before bed, it's worth mentioning. That definitely does help. Really hoping you get the help you need to get on top of this. Truly, insomnia sucks.
Love the drone images of the waterfalls and fall colors along the coast!
Thanks Gavin! Once again, this is very high quality production. It stands out to me at times. Like at the beginning when the drone flies over the river and you superimpose your voice over + music + extra recorded noise from the creek in perfect tune. Simply fat produced and very much effort.
;)
That photograph of the waterfall with the log in the foreground......superb!
Gavin really enjoyed those waterfall photographs, especially with the added atmosphere of the background music.
Thank you.
I’m an Autumnal person, when i saw your images the lump in my throat and the tears appeared in my eyes, absolutely magical Gavin. Thank you for sharing
My work here is done.
Those drone shots are amazing!!! you really have mastered that drone camera
For me, reading a book before bed helps. Insomnia is terrible, you’re not alone 😖 I have the same thing with feeling ill and swollen glads. I ended up quitting my job as a truck driver because I couldn’t sleep. 2 years later after making some serious lifestyle changes things have drastically improved. I’m sure things will eventually ease for you.
The changes have already begun. It's a SLOG but it's getting better.
@@fototripper Lifelong insomniac here. I would love to hear some tips that work for you. You know, a book with useful information, mallet of a certain weight and composition, whatever is working for you may do me some good as well.
Loved those dreamy waterfall shots, especially with that beautiful music.
Loving those drone shots, especially the one at the beginning going up the canyon.
If I keep watching your videos I’m going to end up going down the drone rabbit hole.
Agreed! Getting quite addicted to that stuff myself.
I have one and don’t use it enough. Which considering I can get some amazing video and images with it is sad. Check out my Glen Affric videos. I did one just of the drone footage. The Glen in Autumn colours is spectacular.
That is an absolutely gorgeous area wow ..wish we were still in fall..just had 2 ft snow dumped on us and another 2 in today so I've been a Bearcat since Thursday..im ready for spring! to early for this crap..lol.
Fanatical video/photos!!👍
Loved the waterfall with the fallen branch. The reflection pano is gorgeous too.
Kicking Horse coffee first thing in the morning....hmmmmmm yummmyyyy....best way to start the day before heading out for a few hours of photography. The arial pano is really good
Your show is something I look for to. Thanks and the picts are all great.
Awesome scenery, stunning images. Best wishes to Simon, hopefully he recovers quickly.
Hey @fototripper Insomnia is the worst. Have you tried taking a little melatonin before bed? I sometimes take them and it really helps me. I can get them from Trader Joe's here in the U.S. Another tip, if there are clocks in the room, remove them, these can mess with our mind when we wake up and see it's 2am. It's called sleep performance anxiety, worrying you will not get back to sleep knowing the time. Last, minimize exposure to screens in the evening, the sense of it being dark should get body clock accustomed to bed time and wake time before too long. I hope you can get better sleep.
All good advice there.
This vid. was wonderful.
Recto-Verso is one of the way to protect for example money bills. Under the light two uncomplet pictures from both side make a one-completed 🙂
I’m sorry to hear about your trouble with sleeping. I ran into a spell of that and was not helped by doctors. You might give meditation a try, and I know it’s blasphemous but caffeine intake was one of my issues.
sleep is a fickle mistress! i recommend listening to Bill Bryson audiobooks, great way to spend the wee small hours.. close the eyes rest the body and feed the mind. Brothers of the Serpent podcast here on youtube is great too, give it a try if you need something to do at 3am! i've recently become a stay at home carer for the wife, and our sleep patterns are ALWAYS fooked.
Top drawer yet again, thank you.
Flake dogs its always the quiet ones to watch out for ! fantastic photography ! really really loved the first waterfall shot ! stretch the imagination and the log becomes a anaconda with mouth fully opened drinking from the cascades !
Excellent fun to watch, thank you sir. I love the image @10:45. Good stuff. The drone footage is really lovely too. Sorry to hear about the insomnia, good luck.
Thanks
Thanks muchly.
Another fantastic video and shots. I too suffer from insomnia Kevin and I do understand your frustration with sleep. I tend to get between 3 to 5 hours sleep a night on a good night. Defo see your local GP as they could refer you to someone who specialises in Insomnia. Take care u2 and look forward to your next video.......Steve
Brilliant. The dialog... Let launch the drones and find some comps, reminds me of the Wicked Witch launching the winged monkeys to find Dorothy. LOL
You are truly a master in picking very very compelling photos. I never would have done that waterfall the way you did , being so tight on just the bottom and the falls itself, but you nailed it as you always do. Keep up on the great , funny and interesting and informative ones your doing as of late. Not a big fan of the church conversion, but I understand you had to do something while rebuilding you new home. Thanks again and keep up the great work. Wish I had the extra $ for one of your prints.
Awesome shots especially the drone. Amanda finally found someone who appreciates her flake dogs, LOL. Thanks for the laughs and I hope you find a solution to your insomnia. I find routine to be helpful and not engaging my brain in work or activity at night that requires lots of thought. I'm not sure if that makes sense but relaxing the mind as well as the body helps me.
absolutely beautiful. video, photography, music. completely hilarious at those parts of course but all your videos are so beautifully made. feeling the sleep thing. horlicks???!!
You make me smile! And yearn to get out with my camera. Every time. Thanks brotha!
Nicely put together, phenomenal shots man, really spectacular.
Flip sides with cream cheese and hot pepper jelly... awesome snack.
Doctors sometimes (most times) end up doing more harm than good with issues like insomnia. Google up “natural remedies”. You’ll hit things like melatonin, magnesium, chamomile, etc. Lay off the uppers (chocolate, caffeine). One of the very best things for getting to sleep and staying asleep are audiobooks with quiet, soothing readers. I find stories work better than dedicated relaxation recordings. Your mind just starts going along with the story and pretty soon you’re asleep. Setting your player to stay on for at least a few hours can help mute background noise as well. Good luck.
Agree... i've been listening to audio every night for the last two decades.. sometimes, like listening to old Alan Watts lectures, it may help put me to sleep, but if it doesn't, i just try to rest relax and pass the time not sleeping by feeding the mind.
But I need to be able to hear burglars and my cats running around chasing imaginary mice at 3AM.
Decaf coffee is essential, no food or drink after 7-8pm. No alcohol - hard but essential. Sleep deprivation is life threatening, particularly in men. This regime sounds tough, but the alternative is tougher. If that doesn’t work, come back to the UK! Less travelling to photo sites and a much better health service.
haha less distance maybe but waaaay more time in traffic.
Another masterpiece! The end made my face laugh and my trousers shout.
Another fantastic video beautiful photos great music to funny as well
Gavin, I just love the Ariel pano, absolutely beautiful. Sad to hear about your insomnia, I thought it was just part of your banter. I really hope you get it sorted asap.
Others may have said it, but get a "sleep study" done to determine whether you have sleep apnea or not. Years ago I began using a dental appliance to help with breathing while sleeping. This made a world of difference at the time, but as the years went by, it became less effective. My sleep quantity and quality went way down. I had my doctor refer me to a sleep clinic for a sleep study. After spending a night wired to a machine which captured various types of data regarding my sleep that night, I was quickly diagnosed with severe sleep apnea. This explained why I could go to sleep but not stay asleep. Getting a CPAP machine changed my life! Sounds silly, but it is true. I had forgotten what getting a good nights sleep felt like. I do admit that using a CPAP takes some getting used to. It may not be easy at first, but once I figured out to make it work for me, it changed everything. I can't get by without it now. So, good luck with your situation. I hope you feel better soon! And, thanks for the videos! I learn a lot!
I hear you on the insomnia Gavin. I take 3 medications which I hate, but it was affecting my body like you described on top of always having zero energy. It got really bad in my 20s and I'm now almost 50
That waterfall and leaves image was mesmerizing.
Love your channel Gavin..incredible content and lots of laughs...thoroughly enjoyable! Insomnia is a bitch...been there..done that. Melatonin helps and is enhanced with CBD dummies (relaxation type). Truly hope you find a solution to your sleep issues soon as this takes a terrible toll on your health and well-being.
Thank you!
Some really great shots in this episode. Insomnia sucks. May be time to give up caffeine.
Beautiful waterfall shots Gavin… and the drone pano looked amazing. Hope you get sorted soon with the lack of sleep. Must be exhausting all the best 👍👊
That drone panorama was amazing. Going to have to have a go at doing some of them.
Awesomemungous drone footage at 1:30!
Apparently I should be discussing your insomnia but I really don't have any solutions for you. But, please reign in your power!! Went to find the "Town House Flip" crackers here in the PNW and the SHELVES WERE EMPTY!!! As snackers, we are always interested in something new and the "flips" sound yummy. I'll keep looking but when you have a new food interest, please just whisper it to me first!!! ;) Love, love watching you and A!!
It's probably for the best that you didn't find the Recto.
Those things are actual crack. Especially with a super sharp cheddar and a Guinness
I don't follow directions very well so continued to look for "Recto" until I found them here. Although, ours are "Flipsides" - a little less of a nasty name. (Thanks for telling us both names). But, OMG!! So good!! Luckily, we are on the west coast so you can't buy them out here. ;) Cream cheese. smoked salmon and flips.
By the way, CONGRATULATIONS on your 1 year anniversary!! You both did well!! Your videos are our "dessert" on our cocktail UA-cam Sunday.
Just Amazing as always 👍😀👍
Gavin ... if you like cheese ... put a slice of Swiss, Pepper Jack , or Muenster cheese with some honey mustard on top of the Flip Side crackers ... a Guinness beer washes it down very nicely! I love watching your vlogs and Amanda is the icing on top!
Prints would look great in a calendar. 😉
That overdubbed crunching noise absolutely finished me 😂😂😂😂
Loved the first image, and the drone footage is stunning. Hope you get on top of the insomnia issues, not easy. Take care
hehehehehe, loved the waterfall shots this week, the pano was fantastic. thanks for the giggles.
I hope your sleep issues get resolved Gavin! I dealt with that for many years. It's no fun!
The treadmill reaction had me 🤣 thanks for the laugh Gavin
Insomnia? Kale. Nothing better.
Hehe great content again colour’s amazing and can’t knock a good waterfall pic this time of year 👍
This one was exceptional, Gavin. I learned a lot. Thank you from Kelowna
You guys live one of the best lifestyles on the planet. 👍
Just watch any of my vids and you’ll be asleep in minutes man :-) glad you went back there for the colours !! That dronage pano was class too
hahahahah nah, Grumpton takes the prize for that.
Amanda is a monument to perseverance!!😇
She's very special.
The tread mill reaction got me good 😂🤙🏻
That new Mavic puts out some epic footage! Great shots! My lowly Mavic Pro is balled up in the corner crying right now, in shame! 😵😁
Gavin, Recto verso sounds like a bottom scoping procedure or a Drs handshake, when you have one you don't know whether to laugh or cry 😜🙀 🫣 great video as usual with some stunning shots mate 👍
It really does.
Fantastic video as always!
Blood pressure is more likely to happen with years of lack of sleep (I am guilty of it), and (with age) overweight certainly adds to it. I got off my meds by loosing a few kilogramms, went roughly 80% vegan and 98% vegetarian. Blood pressure is almost down to normal without the meds. Oh and I do walk a lot, but you probably walk more than I do.
Crappy salty foods as well... It all adds up. Always start with a diet change that's manageable
Thanks for the laughs! I've needed them this month. If you ever go to Yellowstone or the Grand Tetons let me know. I live in the area in Wyoming!
One day man, one day.
