    One of your comments there rings true with me. Rushing. I often get to a location and immediately feel self-induced pressure to get the camera out and snap as many angles and positions as possible.
    I need to plan trips better and when on location, plan the shots better. Yesterday after Storm Babet had left us here in Highland Scotland, I went out to capture some scenes and the light was epic but my planning was awful.

    I had spotted the photo of Pebbles on you desk and thought, where is she . . .. we haven't seen her for awhile. And then she appeared! Hahahahha. Stunning experience to have been able to go to somewhere like Ireland with those massive cliffs and dramatic weather. And that light . . . .

    The right image at 14:40 seems to have a bit more balance with a better distribution in visual weight between rocks in foreground, the brown patch in the midground and the green. The difference in the top half is negligible.

    The image at 13:32, I would argue that the sun is not too far from the remote stretch of land in the left side. When I print screen copy it, L/R swap does not make it better, but when I crop the foreground away then it becomes more tranquil and balanced and the question if the sun is too far away would not come up in my mind.

  • @dw.in.michigan
    @dw.in.michigan 7 місяців тому +1

    I liked the left image because the rock was more prominent, but I like the right image because it visibly rises above the midground. In the left image, if not for the contrast of the light on the rock face, it would disappear into the midground. Ultimately, you have to determine how it's going to be viewed. If digitally, then it's probably okay. But if printed, then that contrast that makes it stand out may flatten a bit. That's just my preference, though. Either way, they're both great images that evoke that sense of being there in the moment.

    as a nikon fan boy and a owner of the z7II and the same lens on this video , i cannot stress how good this lens is , you dont need the holy trinity of focal lengths anymore imo , and if its one lens you need in your landscape bag its this one , dont be off put by the comparison of the 24-120f4 S line as tbh unless your blowing up massive prints you wont notice any difference in quality and i think there is a comparison video out there and the 24200 is just as good on specs . and for the same price you get an extra 80mm focal length . good video btw

    Nigel, as usual, a teriffic video. But as a colonist and not a native Brit, I sometimes have some difficulty figuring out where exactly you are shooting. Is there any way you can drop a Lat/Lon in your remarks so we can set up a base of understanding where you are shooting?? Also, love to see a video on the focus stack and light stack (for example, is it any different from HDR??) Thanks. (A little more detective work using comments from your viewers, I'm guessing N52.1434, W010.4290?)
