  • This week I'm doing some landscape photography and wildlife photography in Antarctica, or at least talking about it. As photography trips go it was a good'un so I talk through some of the places we visited and the photos I took.
    I was on the trip with Nigel Danson, Adam Gibbs and Alyn Wallace - videos below.
    Nigel's video: • Why the 100-400mm Lens...
    Adam's video: • The ULTIMATE Antarctic...

    James Popsys: “I use the rule of odds, you know, 1, 3, 5…”.
    Also James Popsys: “Here’s a shot with 8 penguins…” 😂 Classic!

      I was quite perplexed with your panoramas, how do you do it when the subject is moving?

    Exceptional photos James, breathtaking scenery. I live above the arctic circle, so I'm eager to see the snow melt. We've had snow here since the end of September, but your photos are beautiful and peaceful.

    No comment... in a positive way though, because sometimes making a forced comment results in saying something everyone else does, but for me, I have no comment because I literally have no words to describe the beauty of Antarctica. Thank you for the video and taking us on this journey with you James! Always love your videos.

    What a stunning place. And I’d argue that it’s not just a trip for a trips sake. It shows us, and reminds us how beautiful and fragile our home is. Anytime we go anywhere there’s some carbon footprint issue, and sometimes it’s worth it. Just my two cents.

  • @hankroest6836
    @hankroest6836 Рік тому

    11:00 I suspect that the 50mm FL feels most natural because we tend to look at photographs from a distance from which they occupy about the same FOV as a 50mm captures. Also, I believe that actually, and paradoxically, we tend to lean closer in to more telephoto shots and step back a bit in front of wider angle images, and this makes them feel, of course, less realistic but somehow more manageable psychologically.

    Those blues and cyans are breathtaking. Priceless hues for want of a better description. I also love that single (odd) penguin shot. The deep blue in that 50mm shot of the water is amazing. Almost black with a touch of colour. Magnificent James!
