Thanks everyone for your amazing response. Be sure to check out my instagram @brintonphotography where I have posted most of my images from Sable as well :)
All about unique perspectives otherwise unavailable until the drone tech came into play with filming & still images captured with your drone. So many perspectives here. Never forget to add your "macro" images as these really complete your photo/video essay. These very images of tiny bugs & plant life can be just as dramatic as your flyby of the island taken from above with your drone. Looking back now what do you think you would have added in hindsight?? After seeing the Doc recently the possibilities are endless!.
Spectacular production! I can't imagine the number of hours that were required to put together such a beautiful cinematographic spectral. I spent 10 days on the island for a mapping project and you captured its majestic solitude so well. Thank you for your wonderful work.
I have flown many times along the length of island while working , but never have I seen the island presented in a more spectacular way. Fabulous , no other words for it.
A friend of mine on Facebook has been to Sable Island a couple of times now she is a radio personality and a photographer of wild horses. I lived in Nova Scotia for 19 years and i now live in Ottawa, Sadly i never got to see this little spit of land nor the remarkably adept horses who reside there. The photo's i have seen from my friend have been breath taking, You have sown me another side of this remarkable island and its other inhabitants the seal population. It has always amazed me how the horses on this island a sand bar could survive all year round with no trees to protect them or structures to hide behind. They are truly remarkable animals. I have been under the spell of horses my entire life, i enjoy them so much that i spent 2 and a half hours in a paddock of domestic horses to rescue a horse who had a broken halter on and a bit of brush had gotten stuck and it was dangerously close to the horses eye i gained his trust asked him for permission sat with the herd and when i got up to leave the horses all of the domestic herd followed me to the gate them followed me as far as they could go till they could not see me any more. Not treats no gimmicks it was tranquil and peaceful and i felt the most safe than i have ever felt in my entire life. I even laid down in the grass with them while others stood around me as if they were on guard for me to rest like they would do for any of the herd. When i got up and walked towards the gate, you could almost hear them saying to each other where is she going? Whats she doing? She cannot leave us we need her she is part of our herd now come back? I made a promise to come back the next day and i sat in the field again with them for an hour and a half the second day and i brought with me a new halter and the same horse came over and laid down beside me while others stood guard and i asked if i could put the new halter on him and he moved his head towards me and i put it on him and i laid down for a little while longer and again you could almost hear what they were saying as i got up to leave. The best two days of my life was spent there with these horses who accepted me a human as part of their herd. The herd was split up[ but the horses would always stand in front of me if ever there was any danger from horses play fighting or messing around I was always well protected and i loved it there, it was my happy place at a time when my life had taken a bad turn health wise, Anxiety, Depression, i had an illness that nearly killed me literally i was hospitalized for a week i lost my job and my Mother in Law My brother and a co worker all in the space of two years. I volunteered there and i was there for almost 5 years then i was told not to come back and the racing world had taken a hugh hit and there was no need to come back because they had no other contracts coming in. I rescued a horse who was neglected to the point of starvation, his hooves were curled up and ended up with a twisted coffin bone in his hooves at the front he was walking on his heels, he was riddled with lice, he was close to death when i got him one more super cold night this horse would have died during the night and he would be frozen to the ground, He hadn't had his teeth done in forever he had the upper and lower wolfs teeth or Canines crossing over one another causing excruciating pain in his mouth he hadn't had any vaccinations done in years and he had a sway back which happens when reach a certain age and or they were started training too early. I heard the owner was selling him for $500.00 CDN so i came back with an offer of $200.00 CDN for his saddle and the few brushes he had and i want the horse for free because i am going to have to spend a lot of money to get this boy healthy again, I knew he wouldn't have gotten any money for the horse. I paid the money to getting well and get him kitted out with a good tack list spent the money to get him well again and he was almost well back to his proper weight and he had to be put to sleep because of a Neurological Episode was the Vets term. I miss him every day I had loved him and took care of him and i had to let him go I was devastated with the last three owners he had they all neglected him and each time he was built back up sold to the next one and then the process started again for him. His body could go through that again. All i have left of him is a couple of photos i took two weeks before he died, a progress video and some of his tail hairs, that were cut off before they buried him. I love horses and i will get another horse or two or three. I may even start a rescue someday but for now i live with my memories of those horses that have come into my life over time. All the Animals have been rescues cats dogs horse rabbits guinea pigs rats mice. All rescued.
I absolutely loved watching this video-it was so inspiring! Sable Island's beauty is breathtaking, and it's definitely a place I'd love to visit and photograph someday. Thank you for sharing this and leaving a lasting impression on my heart.
I love everything about this video! There is no place on earth like Sable Island~ where nature is pristine, untouched.... and the legendary wild horses run as free as the wind. You have beautifully captured the essence of this magical place! Well done!
I had an opportunity to go there in the late 80's - I was very privileged to do so....but never saw it from above, other than from the helicopter. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.
We sailed out July of '19....just for a walk on the beach. With better planning we plan to sail back out this July again for a little longer stay. Truly is a beautiful place. I hope to produce a similar video. Well done.
Amazing Video ! A friend of yours just shares this with me. I used to work offshore on ships and rigs. Last rig was the Rowan Gorilla in the 80’s and we were located just offshore of Sable. I used to hope for bad weather so our chopper would be forced to land on Sable but never happened. But my rig did sink on route to North Sea without me on it. I could watch this over and over, well done !
Really spectacular -- and a great service since most of us will never get there. Especially loved the low-flying drone shots skimming the surf. Well done and thank you!
I got sent there once by government and LOVED it. Very nice, I really hope the climatic changes won't destroy the island. Thanks for sharing those image from the sky I really enjoyed it.
There are places on planet Earth where human beings have not been able to live or build and yet they think of building on Mars, that is a pure dream of fantasies.
Have polar bears ever been recorded on Sable Island? I know it's not particularly close to their range, but they are champion swimmers, and are known to occasionally get lost at sea.
Polar Bears exist in the Arctic Ocean, this island is almost smack dab in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, the Polar Bears would have an easier time swimming to Ireland than Sable Island.
@@Ithoughtthiswasamerica Sable Island is 161 km (100 miles) from mainland Canada, and not "almost smack dab in the middle of the Atlantic." There are PEOPLE who can swim that far, albeit in warmer water. I'd love to hear from an actual expert on polar bears about this. A paper in the journal Zoology recorded polar bears regularly swimming over 30 miles, and in one case, as far as 220 miles. FYI: Ireland is ~1,600 miles from the nearest edge of the range of polar bears.
@ polar bears have never swam anywhere near sable island since the last ice age, they often swim from Northern Europe to Canada, much closer to Ireland than they are to Sable Island, again Sable Island is SOUTH of mainland Canada. Next you’ll tell me the Kangaroos are sailing to Thailand.
@@Ithoughtthiswasamerica Sable Island is ENE of Clark's Harbour, NS. Question: Is the peninsula known as Nova Scotia a province of Canada? If the answer is yes, then Sable Island is most decidedly not south OF mainland Canada. If you have a digital chart available to you then you should take a look at it.
There are many horses that die on this island because they eat so much sand their teeth wear out and then they starve to death, one year they found 150 dead horses, think how many came close to death, but somehow survived
Looks like they are waiting for the land bridge to reappear so they can migrate somewhere else , of all the places to go they flock at that location of the beach most often than any other place
I believe according to Parks Canada's statements, the horses should be extirpated from the Island. The Parks Act says all non-native species are to be removed from National Parks.
Beautiful...... peaceful.... wonderful....mindful.... I feel like a part of earth........❤️ Such a great concept with amazing content....wins everything....❤️🌼🌼🙏🏻 liked and subbed:)New friend :) would be grateful if you give some love to my nature channel:)take care 🌼🙏🏻❤️😊💕
Can’t go along with the crowd. All this dramatic hackneyed music and hoopla for what is a sandbar with some swamp grass and a few horses that don’t belong there and survive tortuous conditions. It seems like you’ve watched way too much Lord of the Rings. Way too much.
Thanks everyone for your amazing response. Be sure to check out my instagram @brintonphotography where I have posted most of my images from Sable as well :)
Always wondered how it doesn't get covered in water and it's literally just a sandbar. Amazing beautiful place
What's the name of music in the video brother ?

Spectacular shoot, and such a good edit, a few of those reveal shots straight up gave me chills.
Thank you Canada for leaving this place as it is and thank you sir for allowing us to see it so.
I would love to visit this island... even just to fly over it to see those wild horses..... just beautiful, natural environment....
What an incredible job!
Spectacular production! I can't imagine the number of hours that were required to put together such a beautiful cinematographic spectral. I spent 10 days on the island for a mapping project and you captured its majestic solitude so well. Thank you for your wonderful work.
I heard about it, I saw pictures from it before but this film was most beautiful of all. So magical place that I wish to see with my own eyes.
I have flown many times along the length of island while working , but never have I seen the island presented in a more spectacular way. Fabulous , no other words for it.
What a beautiful production! Seeing the island from above was really amazing. Such a great job! Well done! 👏🏽👏🏽❤️
Oh I so would love that... what a fantastic opportunity !
Wonderful imagery. Thank you for putting this together.
One place I've always wanted to go. So near and yet so far. Your video is stunning, sand dunes and ocean and grassland! Beautiful!

Incredibly shot and put together! This island is fascinating.
Great job! Breathtaking! Amazing opportunity to capture the wildlife in their natural habitats.

:) Thank you again Sandy!
Worked there a couple of summers, great adventure. Nice video, brings back a lot of memories.
My friend and myself got to visit Sable Island in 2011...it was an amazing experience we will never forget. Thank you for sharing :)
This was beautiful, thanks for sharing, it will and as always been a dream of mine 💗🌊
Amazing! created by my amazing and creative nephew....love it Gary : )
Man I could watch that over and over what an absolutely beautiful place. Couldnt think of anyone else to go out there and capture it as you did !!!
I had an opportunity to go there in the late 80's - I was very privileged to do so....but never saw it from above, other than from the helicopter. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.
Absolutely stunning photography!!

I loved this video as well. It's 4 1/2 minutes of bliss. Well-done.
I was there last summer as well and it was spectacular !! - Thanks I can relive it over and over now ! Great Shooting!

That place is breath taking!
Awesome photography!
Thank you
Breathtaking
Beautiful no words to say
Amazing footage! 👏
Thank you very much!
Hi from panama, amazing video
Very nice this place is a gem, i understand Zoe Lucas living that long on it! I wonder if they ever tried to grow apple trees for the horses!
Stunning work
What a beautiful video. I love that the horses are wild and free. But I worry about them not having enough fresh water all year round.
They are doing fine...they have lots of water and grass :) Nature takes care of them !!
Enjoyed, Well Done!!!
Wow - excellent production! I'd love to go someday with a camera or two in tow. Thanks for sharing.
Amazing stuff.
Loved the sync to music, well done
Stellar.
Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
The Graveyard of the Atlantic. So many ships were lost there. So many men marooned on that island.
Hello Sir. Incredible 🙏🙏🌹🌹
que hermoso
just...Thank you :)
Looks amazing - how big do the waves get during hurricanes?
Looks like an ideal location to pick up great big swells.
I understand the Island moves, are maybe a way to build a shelter for them where the horses can stay safe during the cold winter?
Amazing. What hotel did you stay at? Good reviews?
🤣😂🤣😂
There are places on planet Earth where human beings have not been able to live or build and yet they think of building on Mars, that is a pure dream of fantasies.
What do the horses do for water? Good video.
did you see the horses drinking out of the big ponds in the video?...:)
Gotta be brutal in the wintertime
totally!
Bellísimo!!!! Felicitaciones! Cuéntanos un poco de cuál dron usaron para estás increíbles tomas.?
Anyone know the name of the song this beautiful video is set to?
where do these horses come from?
Very nice pictures. I'd be curious to find out if the rising seas has/will impact this island...
Was just thinking that 😢
It’s where the 100 pound striped bass go for the summer.
Woooooow!
what do the horses eat in winter there?
It doesn’t snow there it rains, so still grass
I wanna live alone there I’m so stressed i’m drowning in debt

Exist hill with stone and rock in this island?
No have tree there?
i found you finally lol
@@HalifaxComputersRepair see you soon :)
can we get at least one pony in sable island ?
Looks like they are waiting for the land bridge to reappear so they can migrate somewhere else , of all the places to go they flock at that location of the beach most often than any other place
❤
What's the name of music ?
Nice place. I had a good burger there. The roads are bumpy but you get good wifi. Beware of rabies though and don't give money to them fake monks.
This is so tuff
Hi there. May I download the video and re edit my way ?
No lol
