Thanks Nigel! Lots of fun 😃
When two youtubers appear together like this It feels like one of those episodes of Dr Who when he meets previous generations of himself😂
And a great shot of you (James) next to a tripod!
@@Michael-Bennett Yeah. A shot of James with a tripod is as rare as a shot of a unicorn!
Really here for James lol
@@russw2766 Haha! That's the perfect analogy. 😂😂
The biggest crossover we never knew we needed. Now this is a thing we need to see this more often!
Two of the photographers I watch often and binge watched during covid. Awesome crossover. Amazing content and challenge! Beautiful location to do such photography.
“…he’s watching one of my videos on how to shoot with a 24mm lens…” 😂 That had me. Great video Nigel, I didn’t see this collab coming and it was awesome! Got some nice shots and really enjoyed the pacing throughout this. 👏
just brilliant! 😂
Yup, made me laugh too. The video had a good collegiate feel.
This was a fantastic collaboration, James felt very much like a co-host which is how colabs should be.
That lens compression with the sheep was brilliant. The photo James took with the blue sky was fantastic as well. Both took amazing photos.
As Adam and Gavin have found out in western Canada, collaborations are always fun for the viewer as well as the creators.
Excellent work, more collaborations please guys!!!
Big thx to James and Nigel. So much fun. Love it!
This night I will have dream: Nigel Danson, James Popsys and Henry Turner... my beloved three photo mountaineers on the top of a fell, all struggeling with a f..... nifty fifty ;-).
But seriously, a few collabs over the year would enhance every envolved person´s channel. Brilliant idea Nigel.
It's actually refreshing to see pros (like the two of you) struggle. It makes me feel like there is hope for me after all.
Paused at 0.29: Two of my favorite youtubers together. Phantastic to see you
2 of the best photographers on UA-cam and they are together. How much better can it get
My two favourite photographers in one video, couldn’t really ask for more, cheers guys please do more of these
Everyone who has a mirrorless should get themselves a vintage 135mm manual prime. They're ultra cheap (under £50), are great fun, offer amazing image quality and teach you so much about using longer focal length.
Great idea for a challenge, guys. This looked like a lot of fun.
Two bearded men out with their fixie… How hip and happening photography is. Really like both of your UA-cam channels.
Great insights and camaraderie, too! Thanks much Nigel.
Good fun, great video from both of you. Really enjoyed the brief "sound of freedom" echoing through the valley.
Ah brilliant stuff chaps! Had a few chuckles watching this 😊 you guys really seem to get on well and it makes for a good watch 👍🏻
That comment you made at the end " That's James watching one of my videos on shooting a 24mm lens " I nearly died hahaha.
Great video, two of my fav Photographers . Hope to see more of this Nigel.
Same two of my favourites. Get Henry Turner in as well next time.
What a great idea for stretching your creativity! I’ll have to test myself that way. Another great video! Thank you!
What an enjoyable video! Thanks, Nigel.
much fun to watch, lovely creative 'solutions' and both created beautiful images. great y/t pairing!
Thank you for this week’s video. I follow James as well and great to see the collaboration with you two! Love both your channels 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Great episode :) Awesome to see you together with James working out different views of the same area!
Great stuff. Good show, to see you both. More of that, thank you. 👏👏👏
Great stuff from the both of you. Awesome!
Finally, was about time to get you two together. Fun, 100% fun 😍✌️🙂
Gotta love Nigel and his magic apples. (5:12)
Another wonderful video. The two of you have super skills and good chemistry. It was very interesting to see two such accomplished photographers with such different shooting styles; one with tripod, one without.
Brilliant dig on James w/the first picture. Love it.
Two awesome photographers. Thanks guys and great to see you both doing what you enjoy.
Great to see the challenge coming from one of my favourite photography spots in Snowdonia. Like Nigel, I won't name the location. I use my 70-200 a lot up there and quite a bit at full stretch. For me, Nigel, you win
70-200mm is the way to go IMO. I have around a dozen lenses but now I reach for the 70-200mm most of the time.
Been waiting for this collab. Didn't expect it to come so soon. 👌
Really liked you two together, hope to see more of this!
Still hanging out for a Heaton-Danson-Popsys 3-way collab video, but until then another 2-way collab will have to do!
Couldnt agree more!! - Was thinking the exact same thing when watching this week
Drop in Steve o’nions…. And you are starting to build an avengers team! 😀
The two best photographers on UA-cam in one video!!?? Best way to start the day that I can think of!
Really enjoyed this. Good job you guys 👍
Thanks for doing this challenge, guys. Great fun! 😊
it was a lot of fun to watch both of you together. I thing you must repeat this again
Big fan of you both, I'm really enjoying this! Hopefully we'll see you two collab more in the future!
"Tripod is for video, not to anger James" hahaha lost it here!
My two favorites in a crossover. Perfect!
Great fun, hopefully to do as well as watch. Thanks chaps!
Great fun watching the two of you play off each other for some great photos!
I binge both of you and somehow the idea of a collab never crossed my mind. So very pleasantly surprised, this is gonna be great.
Fantastic to see two of my favs together, sometimes you can get really good things and surprises with limitations
Excellent! Informative but also entertaining!
My two favorite photographers in one vid! Love it, thanks!
Good to see you two together two of my favourites I am subscribed to. A nice video guy's.
I enjoyed the video. It's nice to see creators with differing styles collaborating to produce something fun and entertaining.
Good to see you both together adds a new dynamic thank you both, we always tune in. Safe travels.
Regards RMc
What a great idea. Educational and Very Entertaining. Thank you.
Beautiful shootout … lovely landscapes …
Enjoyed this alot.
A fun video, Nigel. Loved it. 👍🦘🇦🇺
Nice idea and a change of pace, good to see two photographers interacting and exploring the same landscape. Thanks….
This was fun! Thanks for sharing!
Sat down with my coffee to watch the Sunday Nigel video and got a bonus James! I believe this is at least the second time these 2 have collaborated on a video.
Two for the price of one - what's not to like? I often take out just one lens to force myself to be more creative. Of course it's always the wrong lens for the job. Great video Nigel & James.
JP is one of my faves, thanks for this unique vid with two of my favorites for Sunday morn!!!
That was a great idea and awesome to see. Can't wait to see the photos on IG. You should do that a few more times and different lenses at different time of the day. Great video and tips.
Yaaaas now this is how you start a Sunday morning ,coffee and you and James doing a video together
Just had to say Nigel I'm happy you looked at all James taking photos of sheep 🤣 that one you took was probably my favorite in this video
The aeroplanes you were hearing were military planes flying around the Mach loop, Many photographers go there to get some stunning pictures of low flying jets.
Thank you, both Nigel and James, for creating an Interesting video. Clever idea, each shooting with a different length lens and only that lens. I did enjoy the ‘restrictiveness’ of the challenge. Focuses the mind, bringing frustration and joy in equal parts, I’m sure!
Now to check out the images! Looking forward seeing the very different results.
I loved the video of the vertical rain cloud coming down to Earth and moving across the scene.
Both did really well, you got some beautiful shots...
Great synergy between you guys on video, would love to see more!
Loving the Pampers Night Pants advert James, just before we saw the rain cloud shot. Hope they're sending you a few samples.
Two of my favorite UK photo nerds in one great video. Great to see.
Absolutely agree with you in challenging ourselves with restricting focal length. I went out with a 24mm prime and absolutely regretted my decision while shooting with it on top of a hill thought I was missing out on all the details in sky and clouds but was pleasantly surprised to find out later looking at them in Lightroom that I got some really lovely wide shots that I may have never thought of. Thank you for posting such informative and encouraging videos all the time. Will make sure that I tag you on Instagram in the 24mm photos that I took yesterday. Hoping for a quick feedback!!
This was really fun. I enjoyed the differences of lens and minds. Entertaining and informative as usual!
Lots of fun indeed, but James is a boat load of fun anyway! Great to see you guys doing some collaborations!
Great video Nigel! And after your challenge some weeks ago about taking just 5 pics, this one about focal length is very interesting also! Looking forward for the next one
Fun video. Thanks.
Great episode, loved seeing you two shoot together!
Loved this:) Your photo of James is Great!
What a great challenge and fun collab with two of my favorites! Keep it up guys.
Thanks so much!
Both your channels are great but this was next level …. Fantastic and thank you both .
Awesome video. Really enjoyed the collaboration between the two of you.
Great inspiration👍👍
2 of my favorite photo guys ,beautiful landscapes there , great video .
OMG I'll never get how Brits can manage to not crack even a little at a stellar friendly burn. "watching one of my videos on how to shoot with a 24mm...." without hardly a twitch but here I am nearly snorting beer out of my nose.
Great collaboration from two great photographers!
The B roll won......Well done! and Thank you....
Fun!
My favourite of James' was the rain and blue sky picture; my favourite of Nigel's was actually the portrait he took of James.
I agree with some of the other comments… more collaborations between you two would be fun. You guys are great!
I watch you both. Thank you.
James looks a lot calmer in this video 😆
@MGD 60D hey man, this is a family channel. You can't say things like that.
Well done guys
The dynamic duo 👌
Great video!
Best crossover !!!
The rain moving through was a bonus for both of you. Wish I had a photography friend to do this challenge with. Sometime back you and Henry Turner convinced me to use my long lenses more with my landscapes and it has brought more composition ideas into play than ever before. Thanks to the two of you for the time and effort to put this together. Did you flip for who buys dinner?
This was really good!
Great colab guys! You should do that more often!!!
Thanks ！
Of the shots in the video, I like the shot of James by his tripod far and away the best.
As an amateur bird photographer with only one camera body, 99% of the time I've got my 200-600mm lens on. So anything wide angle I'd have to switch to a short lens. It's quite nice to see landscapes done at 200mm, even though that's as wide as I can normally go!
What a unique concept, you both did well considering 👍🏼
