- Photographing an Ancient Bluebell Woodland - Master your composition and learn to connect with yourself and your surrounding.
Welcome to my first vlog in a while! It's great to be back, needed a long rest and the reason is revealed in this video! Some exciting new beginnings which may mean I have more time to devote to UA-cam. At least for the short term any way. This vlog is something a little different but 100% more my style and way of thinking which I want to share with you to help your photography, or even just help you switch off and relax. I understand more than anyone that sometime you might not be able to get to places or have the ability to explore so let me take you on a journey to nature through my eyes.
Sit back, relax and enjoy this immersive video with the bluebells.

So glad to see you back Suzannahmary beautiful photos really enjoyed the video thank you for sharing it. Congratulations great to hear about your good news
Thank you John! Yes more to come soon, I have a video lined up currently in processing 🙏
Glad you’re back. Actually, this is the first of your videos I watched - thank you UA-cam algorithm - but I’ve since gone back and watched others :-)
I just popped back here to say how much I’ve enjoyed your gentle open approach. Thank you
Welcome aboard! Thank you for the kind comment
Fantastic. Thank you. All the best. 👍📷😎
Many thanks!
I must apologize for not mentioning how much I enjoyed watching your video. 😎💜💜😎
I appreciate that, thanks
Lovely crafted video. Hope you vlog some of your Canada trip. I haven’t been able to get back since the pandemic but hopefully next year. Good look with the baby.
Glad to see you back, and Congratulations.
Very very beautiful pictures!!! I've missed you greatly, worried that you were sick or injured! I can understand about being backlogged with photos!!! I hope your pregnancy will continue safely! Thanks again for returning!!!👍👍👍
All good, cheers for the concern. Always a challenge balancing jobs but glad to be back with a bit more time to film. Thanks for the kind words 🙏
great stuff, nice easy watch.. some of them tyree are amazing
Hi Suzannah, welcome back to YT and many congratulations on your pregnancy; hope all goes smoothly with few sleepless nights.
I'm glad you find bluebells relaxing; they drive me crazy!. Well that is when I am trying to photograph them - to one's eye, they are fantastic and we have some excellent bluebell woodland near me but, by heck are they hard to photograph; they are not photogenic - one really has to work hard to make good images. For example, your good tip: to use a polariser, was impossible this season for me because of the wind blowing the bells hither and thither - need good light for a fast shot. So well done with your sterling efforts on this most beautiful but most frustrating of subjects.
Thanks Seb, yes me too 😅
They are a challenge to shoot, I find getting the right light along with the wind ect very difficult when using a polariser. I think I may have been lucky on the this day 🙏 Appreciate the support
Fabulous, great to see new content and congratulations.
Beautiful video and great looking stills. Love your relaxing tone, really puts me in a tranquil mood. Also, congratulations, my daughter is also pregnant and it will be my first grandson, ( I have 2 granddaughters).
Thank you! Oh wonderful news, congratulations to her too. You must be very excited. All the best
CONGRATULATIONS on the baby! And, CONGRATS on a batch of wonderful images! You are so right about the benefits of being out in nature! Thanks for taking me along!
Thanks so much, I'm glad you agree. Nature is a great place to switch off. Glad you enjoyed it. I'm planning my next video as we speak. Appreciate the support and kind comment 👍
Nothing beats the sight of a bluebell wood. You’ve captured it’s magic beautifully. Thank you for sharing. Subscribed🙂
Many thanks! Appreciate the support, hope you enjoy the content
Great video 👍🙂
Thank you 👍
Congrats, Nice to have you back. :)
Thank you! Cheers
Great to see you again. I couldn't agree more with you about the effect woodland has if you allow yourself to enjoy the colors, the light, sounds, and stillness. Some great shots there!
Hope all goes well!
It is super relaxing in nature, I find the forest is my favourite place of all. It really does help you to see shots too. Thanks 🙏
❤
Have you tried the Viewfinder phone app to let you preview shots using different focal lengths rather than just the wide angle? I’m not sure if it works for all phone types but it might be of use.
Lovely calming video. Congratulations also🎉
Cheers Tim, thanks for watching. Yes very excited news 🙏
Enjoyed your video. Nice photos.
Thank you
Good to see you back, you are like me with editing in general, glad it’s not just me haha
Thanks. I like minimal editing for sure 👍
Great to see you back and congratulations.
Thank you 👍
Watching from New Zealand and hoping that your words are more than just words, e.g. more videos would be 👍
Like EVERYTHING... it's all about momentum and consistency.
Thanks for joining us from so far! Yes very much so taking this opportunity to enjoy filming a little more. Cheers for the support
Really nice to have you back. Missed your blogs and nature awareness. Look forward your next one. Look after yourself and the little one to come, what stage, are you and baby at. Thanks for sharing.
It's good to be back! Wasn't able to film the last few months. I shall, we are about half way so a bit left to go but super excited. Thanks for following 👍
Welcome back Suzannah, and congratulations! The last composition you were working on was my favorite, I've always enjoyed the bluebell images of the English countryside. Hopefully someday I'll make it over to your corner of the world, the UK is high on my list to photograph and I really enjoy seeing the quieter woodland areas. Thanks for the video and take care!
Cheers Chris, I wish I had recorded some vlog for the final set of images but sometimes the light can happen when you don't have all your gear. Yeah it's a fab place to shoot in the UK. You can find Bluebells in some other parts of Europe too, the Spanish Bluebells are really stunning. Thanks for the support, glad you enjoyed the video 👍
Good to see you back at it mate, hope everythings well and congratulations!
Thank you 👍
I have really missed you and your videos here, Welcome back. Nice to see you.
Thanks for following along, it's good to be back 🙏
@@FocusFlowBySuzannahMary Take your time and make videos when you feel like. Every video is worth waiting for.
Quality over Quantity :)
Thanks Jade, glad you think it's a good video. Was a little nervous posting after so long 👍
Enjoyed your video.Very nice photos.
Are you using a full frame canon ?
Thank you, yes I am a Canon 5D Mark ii
When you set your backpack down, do you walk away very far from it? Do you hide it just in case?
I don't walk far and try to hide it where I can, on this occasion I didn't and a walker picked it up and looked at it. I spotted him and called over, it was innocent as I think he thought someone had left it behind
@@FocusFlowBySuzannahMary I’m glad it wasn’t a robbery! 😎💜😎
Absolutely brilliant to see you back ! I love your poetry and music that go along with with your images and B roll I get where your coming from with the earthly vibe to the point of wicca ! and what a bombshell to drop right at the end super news as a dad of 3 boys 12 8 and 2 all I can say is its going to be a super rollercoaster of a Journey and I wish you all the very best !! ua-cam.com/video/950hrdb4L_Q/v-deo.html ! this link is to another youtuber Hayley Ward based in Dublin who is a big hill walker before her young fella was born she is a big advocate for natural and hypnobirthing similar to yourself id say you have a good bit in common value wise !
Thanks so much for sending over the video, I have been following along and have found I have taken up the tips from Hypnobirthing since you mentioned it. Lots of great useful tips. Hoping to take little one along the photography adventures with me, will certainly have my work cut out for me
@@FocusFlowBySuzannahMary Brilliant to here ! Yes indeed you will have your work cut out but you,l reap the rewards tenfold !! Im at the stage where the oldest fella is saying "no Pa (no mam or dad) this is how to do it better" and sometimes he,s right 😀! I wish you and your partner the very best
She is cute😊
Inhale through your nostrils, without raising your shoulders, use your diaphragm, then exhale through your mouth, expelling completely.
Why do test shots on your phone pointless you have a screen in the back of your camera 📸. As a landscape photographer your eyes should see the world like this. You should be able to compose your image from the back of the camera. To be honest not the greatest of bluebell images I seen . You could of done so much more. I would not say your images pop
