- In this video entitled, Improve your Woodland Photography today, 2 great ideas!, I'm setting two challenges which guarantee better woodland images.
I think that anyone who is struggling to capture great woodland photographs will definitely benefit from watching this video. I have created this video in two separate halves. The first half is a very different approach to woodland photography. The second is a great way of showing off your images.
I hope you enjoy the video

Cheers Andy 👍👍
wow Gary your pics are fantastic iv been doing woodland photography for bout a month now watching the your channel has inspired me even more thank you for Gary
Cheers Jimmy 👍👍
Images and your thinking behind them 'Brilliant', music choice beautiful
Excellent Gary, this video is a treasure, many thanks 🙏
well done Gary, so inspirational.
Cheers Steve 👍👍
Fantastic vlog again Gary
Thanks 👍
@3:45 - I don't know, Gary, I just listen to what you say and nod. I trust that you know more than me when it comes to photography. Cheers!
lol cheers Alan 👍👍
Great Shots Gary. Informative as well.
Triptychs...learned something today.
Cheers Bob
Another very good video Gary, many thanks
Many thanks 👍👍
thank god i found this channel, i love your videos
Very kind Owen, cheers 👍👍
Just watched this today and you are so right , I've been out this weekend and my favourite shots were outside my house
Your video has inspired me to revisit my local woodland today and look at it in a different way. Thanks for the video Garry. I like the idea of triptych presentation.
Cheers Graham 👍👍
I went yesterday, put your advice in to practice and got some good shots. Thanks.
Love this, I have always loved photography but it has been mostly point and shoot. Now I am getting serious and I am in the USA and live in Tennessee where we have a lot of woodlands. So far it is my favorite landscape. Because here we have woodland everywhere. Thanks so much for all this great information. Love your channel.
There are many potential images not taken because we don't spend enough time looking at the possibilities. Adding the triptich gives us another opportunity to create something interesting from something that alone may have been seen as mundane. Very useful, thanks.
I have an old slide mount on a lanyard I keep around my neck I use to frame up shots. Quick and easy. I zoom by moving it closer or further from my eye
Great tip! cheers Steve 👍👍
Enjoyed the video, unlike some woodland videos which are a little boring. Keep up the good work
Thanks 👍
Very informative thanks Gary. Been struggling with woodland photography so some ideas in here i will put into practice.
Glad to help. Cheers Dave
I think this is an excellent tutorial. Thank you.
Cheers John 👍👍
Great stuff Gary!
Cheers Neil 👍👍
I can feel his photography passion .
Garry is one of the best photographer on yt ...
Great video Gary, and great photos!
I struggle with woodland photography very often, but this video will help me to get better pictures. Thanks Gary!
Happy to help. Cheers Robert 👍👍
You are bloody right, so many people, even so called UA-cam pro photographers are just taking random woodland shots and think they've created masterpieces, honestly it does my head in. Thanks for the video Gary, it may make some people think! cheers.
Agree totally, cheers xx
Another enjoyable tutorial, anyone just getting into woodland photography like myself, can only come away with inspired thoughts and ideas after watching this....
Great Vlog, Thank you
A lot to learn from your videos, good job Gary 😊
great video... a lot of learning and loved the second part !!
Well done ....
Quite inspirational ....
Thank you 👍👍
Where I live all is chaos. Nature is a slob without park rangers, gardeners, or grounds keepers to tidy her. Chaos is mostly what I've been shooting for years. No one understands it. It's not the norm to come away with, and display the ugly child. I'm happy landscape photographers are finally speaking up about the subject. Keep in mind there are many of us that don't even have 'large' bits of chaos. I often have to capture small bits - close ups. There are many levels to enjoying a day out in local country messes.
Cheers Charly 👍👍
Good idea the triptic! Thanks! It will give me more reason to get out in the rain. I was deter from it because it is next to impossible to find a perfect subject worth one image in that time, but if you join a few in a balanced texture set then it is worth the viewer 2 sec of his time!! Thanks again!! Good job!
Yeah! Finally someone who embraces the chaos! Life can be messy, complicated and chaotic. Shallow DOF - background becomes texture. Nice.
Ironic that you talked about looking - I just emailed a fellow photographer this - "Does this happen to you? Something grabs your visual attention. Really grabs your attention. It screams at you. The screaming visual calms down if you spend enough time looking at the scene. Then, suddenly, the more subtle stuff pops and becomes as pronounced as the screaming demons. The real shot, the one that says you, is in the subtle subject."
Love your explanation Ken Top drawer 👍👍
Great video Gary!..Being in lockdown here in the States has put a a lot of constraints on getting out and shooting.Woodland photography is my favorite and fortunately I live next to a woodland preserve but I've struggled lately getting the shots I really like but this video is awesome and just what I needed!.Thanks so much.Cheers..Mike Duponte.Tampa,Florida.
Cheers Michael. I'm think there is light at the end of the tunnel now :)
@@GaryGough Hope so Gary I’m having Photography withdrawal symptoms!!lol..cheers and be well.
Nice video again Gary. It helped my a lot👍
No problem 👍
Thank you I often see this kind of scene and have walked by. You have shown the beauty of it that is very inspiring
Thank you Taylor
Great ! Thanks for the video
My pleasure! cheers 👍
You should use the back focus to focus it really works wonders.
I teach it Martin but it's not for me 👍👍
Another great video Gary.
I have never thought of photographing woodland in this way.
The first image was probably my favourite but there we a few other contenders.
As Peter said about doing a video on macro i think it is a good idea and I'm sure a lot of people including myself will agree.
I look forward to your next woodland video.
Thanks 👍
Great stuff, Gary. I think if one good thing came out of this COVID times for us photographer has been the appreciation of our local areas. Most of us want to go on big trips to far off destinations but a lot of us now realize there is some great stuff right out our front doors. You had some great info for woodland shots and look forward to part two (or 3)👏🏻👏🏻
Cheers Andrew 👍👍
Absolutely Andrew! Shoot local👍🏻
Another great video Gary ! Looking forward to the next one....
Thanks 👍 Cheers Ian 👍👍
Gary I really appreciate how well you demonstrate your technique. You explain your approach so well and I get so much from your vlogs. What an amazing woodland! Really enjoy you work.
I absolutely loved this Gary. thank you ,Its Behind you!!!! You always motivate.
I enjoyed that, woodland chaos I think I have been shooting that a lot lately and I love it, since lockdown I have been shooting local for 12 months now but because the law is so strict here I have only managed to get out with a camera about 5 times but I have taken plenty of pictures to play around with when I get home! Although I have been a photographer for a long time I have spent little time taking pictures in in woodland and I am really enjoying it, I only started my woodland photography last summer so watching videos like this really helps. We are now in the middle of another lockdown and I obey all the rules and stay indoors I have now had my 2 vaccinations and I feel a lot safer and I am looking forward to going out again. I found your video most interesting and thank you for putting it on here. I liked all the pictures you put on here and one or two are close to ones that I have taken so I know I am on the right track. Thank you.
Fingers crossed we'll all be out and about soon enough Des 👍👍
Loved this one Gary! Thanks for sharing, just came back from a morning in the woods, wish I seen this first, stay safe over there mate.
Great video, you have shown me another direction to go down when trying to capture a woodland photograph. Many thanks...
Thank you Gary. Very inspiring as always. Very much appreciated.
Cheers Chris
Great vlog, I always manage to take something away from your video’s, thank you
Brilliant vlog, I watched it in 2 parts and enjoyed it just as much as if I had watched it in 1. Looking forward to part 2.👍🙂
Excellent work thanks
Cheers Stephen 👍👍
Nice work Gary. Great to see your thought processes on the search for compositions. Lovely images too, especially the first shot 😊
Hi Gary, the very first thing you did in this video was fit a filter, I presume it was a polariser, but you didn't mention it, and I would have thought it is probably a key element in these photographs. Great images and brilliant compositions. I love your attitude and pleasant nature. Thank you, I learn a lot from your channel.
Hi Bruce. I rarely use a polariser that’s why I forgot to mention it. It didn’t do anything though. It’s great in the woods when the sun shines though.
Great stuff Gary! I love the beach trees!...
Loving the video, training your eyes to see composition get s better with practise, sequencing photos is hard im trying to learn it so looking forward to the next video, ive been cutting up some prints small ones and pasting them on card to see if the work they look really,ly good , love the triptych
Gary another good one, your right about being in the right woods as brambles and other extraneous matter causes too much interference and detract from suitable subjects.👍
Thank you Stephen 👍👍
Great Vlog, I think this is a Vlog i will have to view again and again, I find woodland, what we call in NZ "bush" photography very challenging, thanks for sharing
Thank you for joing me all the way from NZ. I'm sure you'll have some cracking woodland?
Great vLog Gary. As a professional photographer, I like the way you portray your thoughts good or bad and the idea that not everyone, even professionals go out and capture the best shot without even trying every time. However that said the ones you captured in the woods are stunning and I cant wait for part 2 for this vLog. Thanks for sharing it just made me even more determined to get out and walk around my local woodland.
Very kind of you to say David 👍👍
You are just great mate. An all around nice guy that is easy to see. All the best Mr. Gary
Thank you kindly
Love the chaos Gary!! Man, those trees are amazing!
Wonderful vlog!! I don’t know how many times I’ve said the words “ turn around!”😀💕
Too right?! Cheers Shannon 👍👍
I thought it was just me. :)
Hey Gary, I have only recently come across your UA-cam Channel, but I am impressed with your no-nonsense direct, and informative style. I think, this is the second, or third, of your productions that I have viewed, and I have enjoyed them all. Keep up the good work!
Fantastic Gary! I enjoyed following your thinking on embracing chaos, it was superb...
Glad you enjoyed it. Cheers Keith
Truly an excellent video with great insights. Thank you!
Really enjoyed today's video, so much I watched it twice (so far!). I enjoy taking triptychs but I'm only just getting into tree photography. Definitely inspired me to get out in my local woods and embrace the chaos.👍 THANK YOU
Glad you enjoyed it!
Yet another great job, Gary. I continue to be amazed by your positive outlook on life and the way you capture it in your images. Well done!
Thank you Steve 👍👍
I bet, thoses distorted trees are only available in Great Britain ;-)
Great video as always Gary !
I'm sure they're everywhere. 😁😁
Glad I found your channel :)
Another great Vlog mate really helping me get through the Locdown, looking forward to the next one. Keep on Vlogging.
Cheers Philip 👍👍
Huuuuge thanks for this video Gary! Among all videos related to photography this one is the best photography lesson I have attended for ages. Can’t wait to see what’s next. Respect Professor Gough...
Consider yourself added to my Christams Card List. Thank you 👍👍
Great video. It show that you don’t have to go in to the mountains to get that killer shot. There are woods near to me and I never really give them much thought, but now see them in a different light.
Great video Gary, I always come away from your videos having learned something new. Thanks you for sharing your knowledge!
Very kind, thank you
Very emotional!Absolutely breath taken photos Gary.I felt like I was right there with you.This kind of photography’s exactly what I love 💕 and don’t really see a lot of.Thank you so much for sharing !
Good ideas!
Thank you! 😊
This is just amazing!!! For me starting with woodland..this is just perfect explained! Love this guy!!!
I really enyoy this video. Thank you. When I'm out there in the woodlands I'm lookoing for minor details almost. But now I might take another look around.
Thank you 👍👍
Thanks Gary will keep all the info u give in mind.for the next time am in the woods. That's something I struggle with
Cheers Allan 👍👍
Thank you Gary - great inspiration for photography in my local patch
Very welcome 👍👍
Gary you make it look so easy 😊 This video has been so helpful beautiful images as always 👍
Thanks 👍
Thanks for another inspiring video Gary. I enjoy woodland photography but quite often I can't see the wood from the trees so to speak. This video has helped considerably and has put another aspect on woodland photography. Out of interest what filter were you using?
Many thanks. I was using my polariser but it was pretty useless that day 👍👍
Hey Gary,
Just finished watching this Vlog.
Your images were stunning. It just goes to show what can be achieved if we give a place some time as well as consideration as to how our final image should look.
I must admit, you certainly have an eye 👀 for a photo, but what seems to capture my attention week in week out is how you manage to tell the story of your shot with your photo/video reels.
Your vlogs and presentation of images/videos are excellent. The atmospheric background music choices are always very fitting to the surroundings.
I never get fed up learning from you and gaining more knowledge on techniques/set up and approach.
Much appreciated.
Richie.x
Cheers again Richie, thank you xx
@@GaryGough Welcome GG x
Fantastic ideas here. You make so much sense. I’m inspired to go for a long camera walk today. Thank you.
Very kind, thank you
Great video Gary. Learnt a lot today about composing in the woodland and a couple of technical things to try with my camera!
That was fantastic Gary , loved the images and your approach, the triptych idea is something I’m definitely going to try
Cheers Andrew
Thank you again Gary, always clear & on point!
Cheers Andrew 👍👍
Going to try that in the woodland just down the road from us this weekend, some stunning trees in that woodland and I bet you could spend all day there.. great vlog
Cheers Darren 👍👍
Love your pictures Gary,
As a beginner I find it very inspiring the way you explain yourself when taking pictures,I'm not a youngster and I find it very helpful.
Keep up the great work Gary👍
Thank you Jeff 👍👍
Brilliant Gary, very interesting vlog and the images were stunning i think i need to go to my local woodland and absorb what you've been teaching us and just have a go
Absolutely. Cheers Jim 👍👍
Another brilliant video....I always find such inspiration and just can't wait to get back out there! Thanks so much!
Great video Gary, always love your tips.
Thanks 👍
Great shots Gary! Makes me wish I didn't live on the edge of a desert, but I have fun with what I have!
Absolutely brilliant video Gary! You are so right about missing compositions when I watch my vlogs back I see so many that I think 'WHY DIDN'T I SEE THAT!😭😭' Love the pictures you got and looking forward to the next one! It's keeping me going in this lock down, thank you 👍
Cheers Andy 👍👍
30 minutes? Perfect for my commute on the subway home tonight! 😊
Hope you enjoyed it? 👍👍
Several local forests near my home also have moss-covered trees that appear chaotic, but I so want to shoot them. Your advice on this video taught me how to approach such a scene and try harder to work with what is available. Very useful and inspirational video as your many others. Thank you!
Another way of learning to spot compositions, particularly when shooting locally, is to take a range of shots with the widest angle lens you have. Take them home and then, at you leisure, use the crop tool in your post processing software to zoom in to highlight areas you feel would make strong images. Then you can return later with a telephoto to get high resolution copies of your favourite compositions.
Great idea John 👍👍
Thanks for another enjoyable and inspiring video Gary! Great work as always!
Great content as usual Gary & full of information - superb... thks.
Cheers John 👍👍
Great vlog that really caught my attention. I have always struggled to get interesting woodland shots due to facing a wall of green! I'll try and approach it differently now. Thank you Gary!
Cheers Lee 👍👍
Interesting vlog Gary - like the idea of making something out of the chaos. Sometimes you can't see the wood from the trees but you provided some good composition ideas there. I think woodland photography does need patience but the results can be really interesting.
Absolutely! Cheers Nick 👍👍
Thank you Gary beautiful photos must say it’s a beautiful woods all those moss Tkaczyk trees luminous green beautiful all twisted and contorted unfortunately my which is pretty boring in comparison love watching your videos love your enthusiasm thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Cheers Andy 👍👍
To be honest when I saw that this video was 30 minutes long I wasn't keen, but I throughly enjoyed it. Some great images.
Cheers Roger. That's 30 minutes you'll never get back :)
30 minutes of Gary..... that’s a mental massage
@@francisschweitzer8431 😁😁
Thank you for the advice for dealing with chaos! I run into this challenge in Japanese woodlands a lot. I will go on my next woodland shoot with a new set of eyes!
Absolutely great tuition......luv your enthusiasm.
Thanks so much! 👍👍
Excellent material! You held my interest throughout! Thanks for the motivation and great ideas!
