You've no idea how much this video taught me in terms of composition and unique perception. Loved the idea of taking photos from a lower angle to remove the water and lagoon. Please make more similar videos James. Love your work.
Absolutely loved it! It was great to see your thought-making process as it really helps to see how people like yourself view scenes and compositions. Keep up the great work 🤙
James, I could listen to you all day. DON'T be put off by the comments on the last vlog. Do what YOU want to do. Just editing a few images and will have you there as background "noise". I've watched the Sri Lanka vlog at least a dozen times. Went there a number of years ago and visited most of the places you did. Thanks for all your work, really appreciate it.
I was in Iceland in 2018 last 2 weeks of October. Landed in Reykjavik and got to Hofn. It was absolutely amazing. Now with your tips on composition and what to look for I’ll get better photos. Thanks for the great commentary.
Great video James, very helpful to listen to your thought process before taking the shot and then seeing the finished image. It has given me plenty of ideas for my next photo walk. Thanks
“Tripod incident”... you tried to dispose of it, didn’t you? Another great video, I’m happy to watch either this week’s style or last weeks... but both really is best!
Really enjoyed this. Enjoyed having you talk us through your rapid photography method. So different than the usual landscape vids that go on endlessly about a single shot. Did I just reveal my inability to have a long attention span? Looking forward to more like this.
The gap in your legs was perfect when you walked 😂😂😂😂 love the videos James, nice to just watch what feel like relaxed, relatable non bias views on things. 👌🏼👌🏼 Get to Swansea for a photo walk 😜
Amazing video James, not as artsy as your previous no talking video, which was great by the way, what the heck I love what ever you do, your natural vocals are excellent, and your photos, well, they are superb, cheers James, more please.
Iceland is one of the most beautiful places on earth. I was so overwhelmed that I didn't even really care about photography. One thing that I loved about it, was the emptiness.
love that idea of first person landscape photography. Also cool to "hear your thoughts" and how you approach a scene. Very interesting and learned alot! Thanks mate!
Wau! Nice! Just nice to see how "sausages are really made" ;) this peeking behind the scene is very valuable and your comments just make it so interesting! Love your videos! Photos are super!
Great video James, good to here you waffle for 20 minutes again!! Think the view at 18:05 looked great for a portrait style shot, with those black lines in the snow and the mountain in the back!!!
James, thanks for waffling. I binge watch your videos like the latest hit TV show because you’re engaging. But I can appreciate and support you experimenting and branching out. At the end of the day, it’s your channel so go make the content that makes you happy.
Great scenery, great commentary of what you were doing. How you don’t have more subscribers I’ll never know. Have a good week as well, can’t wait for the upcoming series 👍🏻
Enjoyed the POV and longer format and what great locations, neither of which I've yet to see covered in snow. I don't think I could ever get tired of visiting Vestrahorn. I can't quite believe what a flimsy little tripod you took though, that's definitely just a fair-weather tripod, and as you know fair weather in an Icelandic winter is the exception not the norm.
James, i am impressed: a) you up in the morning b) rare but good use of filter and tripod, probably the only reason, beside night time, to use these c) these are probably the best pictures I have seen in a long time d) keep on talking, that's why I like your style
James, MFT is sorely under represented in the UA-cam space. I’m not a format zealot, but I really enjoy my MFT cameras and I’m glad someone like you is sharing your adventures using the awesome G9. I will also mention I enjoyed your last video. Calm, serene, and adventure stoking. I enjoy the ones where you talk too about the process. I especially like the POV because no one shows it! I think there is room for both. Just my 2 pence/cents
Cool video! Nice use of Gopro, Definitely like this style of video, gives a different perspective. Good to listen to your methodology of how to set up a specific shot and the reasons to why you need/don't need filters etc. It would be cool to see in the future a mixture of this style of video along with your other styles! Keep up the good work.
Great video, I love seeing you in action and being able to hear your thoughts as you go about looking around and taking photos in these absolutely gorgeous places. Loved it so much I watched it twice and gave it three thumbs up, but sadly it only counted for one like... I'm sure you'll appreciate the effort 😉
Yeah man, really enjoyed this video. Granted I generally like all of your content, but you should just passively do this on all of your trips. It was really cool just seeing you do what you do and, sort of thinking out loud, and I love the images you were taking being slapped in the screen when you take them. Very nice. +1 vote for more.
Just makes me want to go out and shoot in the places you go sooo sooo bad. I can literally think of some compositions with the info I gathered from this video.
hilarious that there is a part where you are mid conversation (with us) but another photographer beside you thinks you are talking to them, but you are just mumbling to yourself (us 🤪) lol Great video mate
"Get a move on" don't you mean, "get a mood on"? 😉 There were so many great photo opportunities that were shown on the way back that you didn't stop for, they were amazing. I wish you could have gotten a photo when the horse was looking at you.
Great video as always. Good explanations of what you're doing and why. I will forgive the lack of 🐑 since they don't tend to hang out on the snow by the sea, I don't suppose.
And again, great video :) I'm wondering which lowepro backpack model & size you used there? And if you're like it comparing to peak design everyday backpack? :)
That trip to Antarctica looks amazing but out of my budget sadly. I wonder though, will you be leaving from Hobart in Tasmania? A day trip to Mt Wellington or somewhere similar as a photographic workshop would be cool :), for us Tasweigans.
Yeah...you are a great communicator and this style video is also just as great as your cinematic version.
Cheers mate! I'll aim for a mix of both in future :)
We love you brother. Talking or not.
Cheers mate :)
Loving the POV/Go-Pro insight. To get some peripheral views combined with your commentary is super-useful! 👍
Awesome to hear :)
OMG, he used a tripod! Is this the first sign of the coming apocalypse? ;-) Great video, right amount of mumbling about!
haha, first and last time...
Well that claim of an apocalypse didn't age well, did it? Lol
@@jace3132 ahahahaha
I'm a bit late on watching this one, but love the running around shooting thing. Enjoyed it James.
Thanks mate :)
LOVED THIS! Great to see your methodology and shot setups, James! Keep it up...excellent vid! 👍🏻
Thanks - great to hear :)
The POV videos are among my favorite. They really help me to get more ideas on how to shoot. Please keep it up, it is great to watch.
Awesome to hear :)
"lets go see what the others are doing' BAM, that wave shot was epic in my opinion. Fantastic video, have a great week!
You've no idea how much this video taught me in terms of composition and unique perception. Loved the idea of taking photos from a lower angle to remove the water and lagoon. Please make more similar videos James. Love your work.
Awesome to hear mate :)
Great video! And amazing shots
Favorite video so far
Really loved this. Great to hear your thought process on the settings and then see the photo that came from them. Thanks for another great video
I love this consept! It's so useful to see how you work with your instincts
Absolutely loved it! It was great to see your thought-making process as it really helps to see how people like yourself view scenes and compositions. Keep up the great work 🤙
Very interesting. Well done. Loved seeing your process.
Thanks mate :)
What a fab video. Love that you’re changing these up and I can’t wait for the new series you teased. Great work - thank you!
Cheers Chris! Much appreciated 🙂
Love this video! Very helpful
Such a helpful video! Great to watch how you work in real time
Thanks for taking us out on your shoot with you. Love being part of the process.
Thanks for watching Joel :)

Thanks so much Steve, much appreciated! 🙂
Yes yes yes !!!! More videos like this one I love it !!!
Great video. Inspirational.
Love that stuff, kick back on your sofa and just relax - this is how you watch it.
Thanks for watching! 🙂
LOVE your POV series!!!
Awesome stuff! I use my polarizer rather often and find that I enjoy the colors with it. Thanks for sharing your perspective from a beautiful place!
Thanks for doing stuff like this, it somehow makes me feel so happy and content that there are places in the world that are a complete surprise to me.
Awesome to hear! Thanks for watching :)

Almost 100k, James! Really happy to see you grow, love the vid as always.
Thanks so much for the support :)
Loved this as much as the previous video, thanks for sharing and showing your thoughts on taking shots, so entertaining and educational to me
Awesome - cheers Carl :)
“Tripod incident”... you tried to dispose of it, didn’t you? Another great video, I’m happy to watch either this week’s style or last weeks... but both really is best!
It keeps turning up back at my door... send help!!
James Popsys I reckon Nigel might be behind it. Loves a good tripod does Nigel
What was the tripod incident to which to referred? Is that a Three Legged Thing tripod?
Great video James. Always love when you take us along when you are wearing a go pro.
Thanks Gillian :)

You do get that in the U.K. There’s 20 odd minutes between sunrise in Norfolk and West Wales or Cornwall.
More of these videos please! Lovely stuff!
Cheers James!
Amazing video mate, loved it!
Loved the video!
Great video !It's great to see how you go about getting your shots and your thought processes as you walk around . Great shots!
Thanks so much :)
Fantastic shots James as always and enjoyed the fpv perspective! Those images were sharp 👌🏻

Awesome, thanks for watching :)
i loved both the silent video and this one. super cool to be able to see your process in the narrated one
Cheers Adam! 🙂
I Love this guy. Every time I see a video with Gavin I click and wait for his enthusiastic introduction 😉
This is great! Loving the fps.
I liked this style! It was great hearing what you were thinking while you were shooting.
Thanks so much :)

Thanks so much Mike :)
Brilliant. Learned and was entertained!
Awesome! Thanks for watching :)
The last two videos go together perfectly! One for the heart and one for the brain, GREAT STUFF!
haha, thanks! :)
Yes! Another call of duty Photography edition! I loved it like always!
Haha, thanks :)
I’m loving the “Go Pro” point of view James 👍 Great vid as usual. Thanks for taking us along. My wife and I are now talking about going to Ice Land!
Awesome! You'll love it :) Thanks for watching!
Loved this video! It was fun to follow you along in this beautiful setting.
Awesome! Thanks for watching :)
This is so sick bro! I love POV Photography I’ve started doing it myself! Keep it up man!
6:21 A man after my own heart. I love your shooting style. See and react, trust your gut and go.
Thanks for watching 🙂
Great video James, good to here you waffle for 20 minutes again!!

Enjoying the wealth of POV shooting videos at the minute, this location was beautiful, keep them coming!
Cheers Stephen :)
This is awesome
Thanks so much 🙂

Thanks so much mate - and sunrise is easy in Icelandic winter, it's about 10am :)
@@JamesPopsysPhoto oh okay, right. Time to move there. If it wouldn't be that cold or expensive.

Been following since like 50k subs. Can't wait for you to hit that 100k!

Loved it so much I watched it twice and gave it three thumbs up, but sadly it only counted for one like... I'm sure you'll appreciate the effort 😉

I'm really eyeing a MFT camera now
Throughly enjoyed that. Makes me want to get back to Iceland 🇮🇸
Thanks for watching! Such an incredible place isn't it! 🙂
Love your unique perspective. A lot of the others walk around hours for one shot. You just go out and shoot, my kinda shooting!
Thanks mate :)
Liking this vlog style.. total contrast to last weeks but fun..
Cheers Ian :)
Just makes me want to go out and shoot in the places you go sooo sooo bad. I can literally think of some compositions with the info I gathered from this video.
Awesome! :)
Ha,ha I will appreciate this more in June- right now I am seeing too much snow at home!
Some great shots in there mate, especially that Aurora one at the start, bucket list shot for sure
Thanks mate :)
Excellent
Thanks mate! 🙂
Amazing 😄👍
Thanks :)
0:53 "this video is 20 mintuesof me not shutting up". Quickly hit the like button
haha! Thank you :)

Great video mate
Wow, James Popsys with a tripod and a 10 stop... briefly. Wasn't expecting that :P Awesome light there. Nice idea for POV photography vlogs. Cheers!
Haha, never again! Thanks mate!
Really liked this video James! Your vids are fab with or without you speaking. Just out of interest, where abouts in Iceland is this...?
"Get a move on" don't you mean, "get a mood on"? 😉 There were so many great photo opportunities that were shown on the way back that you didn't stop for, they were amazing. I wish you could have gotten a photo when the horse was looking at you.
Yay, the voice is back 👍🏻 Nice one.
Thanks for watching Patrick! 🙂
To my taste this video was much better than the last one
Thanks! :)
Great video as always. Good explanations of what you're doing and why. I will forgive the lack of 🐑 since they don't tend to hang out on the snow by the sea, I don't suppose.
Plenty of sheep next week my friend :)
@@JamesPopsysPhoto 👏👏👏👏👏
You really need to try the Lumix-Leica 50-200 f2.8-4 James, think you'll love it.
Definitely Ben, it's on the list :)
And again, great video :)

Iceland in good weather. Not every day. Great vlog.
We got super lucky! :)
This humour feels so real
That's because it's not humour and it is real
Thanks! :)
Interesting to see how you're actually working on location and I can see that you make other decisions than I would have ... fortunately :-D
Pleased it's interesting! I'm never sure... :)
nice one man!
Cheers mate!
Your tripod antipathy is so relatable :)
Haha, pleased to hear it Gina :)
Nice to see someone shoot without a tripod, all about composition.
Awesome! Thanks :)
