    I think it is a good addition to your channel as it allows for the logistical approach of your trips to compliment the artistic aspect of your content. I know Mads Peter Iverson has commented on your channel before and its one aspect that compliments his channel extremely well when he discusses the trip and not just the photography.
    Your images in this vlog were great to see again and your discussion also is a good reminder that it often involves hard work to get to the point of sharing these images

      scotty4418 this is so good! Now I can focus on the vlogging and photography part when I finally get to Landmannalaugar and just link to this video for any practical questions 😁

    Once again, this video is a hit. What you do, probably better than any other UA-cam photographer, is make us want to go out and take pictures.
    Thanks very much for that, Thomas.

    Great idea. It's very helpful for people to get this kind of information to help plan photo trips. Glad that you included some of your images for inspiration.

    YES, that's the kind of video we need for a diverse channel; makes it more complete and informative.

    @peterg3021 6 років тому

    This is a great idea, a welcome addition to your Vlogging. I especially like your preference of taking a caravan so as to advoid the hard/mushy grounds, main day light, day trippers and the breeze from the dunny...

    Hi Thomas. I’ve been following you for a month or so and am constantly educated and entertained by your videos. This one is no exception. I was in Iceland 3 years ago but other than a couple of tours stayed in Reykjavik. You’ve made me want to return and get out onto the land. Just getting back into photography after many years away and you’ve helped me with the steep learning curve to get into the digital age. Look forward to whatever you have planned next, but I encourage you to do more of these.

    The specifics around your treks make it more personal, and for those of us that aspire to get to these locations, its exactly what we're looking for. I'll be in Iceland during this years midnight sun (same week as you), and this video may shift our priorities/path. Thank you for all your work, Thomas.

    Thomas I usually dont comment on your videos however I do watch them all. I must say I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Love your honesty of the layout and what to expect when traveling to these locations you have been to. It gives a good idea on what to expect for those they may travel there as well as give insight on what your experience was like in general. So keep up the good work I think everyone benefits from these videos.
    Also on a personal note. I would like to say we all appreciate the positivity from your videos even tho you maybe going through difficult times. Always time time for yourself and keep up the positivity, its infectious.

  • @mikeshafer2646
    @mikeshafer2646 6 років тому

    Love this style of video! We can talk about gear and composition and editing all day, but getting to the right locations is just as important - and often more ambiguous. Looking forward to more locations!

    Thanks, Thomas, for sharing this video of one of the places you like to visit for photos and scenery. Thanks for adding tips about gear, food, when to go and what time of day to shoot. Looks like an awesome place that makes me want to visit Iceland for a couple of weeks.

    Great episode Thomas! I went to Iceland a couple summers ago and it will forever be one of my favorite places. We didn’t make it to the highlands, but your experience and suggestions have definitely encouraged me when I do go back in the next few years, that will be the highest priority!
    Look forward to tuning in to more episodes so keep up the series, mate!

    Very great video Thomas. I did enjoy this type of video. I've been a fan of your work for a few years now. It might be a great addition to your regular videos. It reaches out to so many people, from the person looking to find new places they've never been to or to someone that will never be able to go to these beautiful locations. Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work!

    @roobarb7989 6 років тому

    A great addition to your usual, amazing videos. Keep doing more! I finally got to Landmann 2 years ago, after trying 3 previous times,only to find the roads closed due to late Spring thawing. It's an amazing, safe location. Absolutely stunning for photography ;)

  • @roblodge6228
    @roblodge6228 6 років тому

    Great idea Thomas, would love to see more. Nothing more daunting as a landscape photographer than going to a place for the first time and only having a limited amount of time to 'get stuck in'

  • @DonKittle
    @DonKittle 6 років тому

    I really liked this video. The combination of explaining the logistics of getting there/camping along with where to go for photo ops and some suggestions on what & how to shoot made this really comprehensive and useful. Thanks so much!

  • @davidsargentphotography
    @davidsargentphotography 6 років тому

    I definitely think this is a helpful video type to add to your channel. Your typical videos are inspirational and educational, but usually focusing more on the actual photography, which is great, but in the vein of educating your fellow shooters, offering this type of super informational location content is a great benefit to all of the photography community. Thanks for giving this a go!

    I love this. I am a big fan! I am not able to do photography requiring much hiking or physical stamina, so living as a travel photographer watcher leaves me somewhat fulfilled, despite my health restrictions. Thank you for making all your videos entertaining through your passion and for making me feel like you took me along for the ride on all of your videos! Your work is stunning!

  • @mpaulphoto
    @mpaulphoto 6 років тому

    I like this sort of video. Keep up this format. Landmannalaugar is as breathtaking as you described it. I hiked this peaks several times and every view is different to the others. Perfect for photographers. But so many people do not respect the unique nature there. They hike off the paths, regardless of the fragile plants they trample down. They leave rubbish. Just to get the best view or the best selfies. That's why the icelandic government recently closed several beautiful areas, like the famous Fjaðrárgljúfur canyon. This is incomprehensible. Please help to protect this amazing nature with all it's uniqueness.

    I usually don't write comments. Probably this is my first or second one but since you asked for it, here is mine: thank you dear Thomas. It is a great deep review about this location from photography perspective and personal experience. Now we know what to expect. I wish there was more videos like this out there. I really appreciate it and please keep doing that. Even if I never get a chance to go there, it will definitely help someone someday.

  • @QUEzMaDDz
    @QUEzMaDDz 6 років тому

    I really enjoyed the "pilot episode" of this new series: I think it's a good opportunity to see and re-examine the locations you usually show with videoclips and pictures, this time giving your actual impressions on them and the places nearby. It would be a perfect complement to the """raw photography""" videos you usually make. Go on, you're always a big inspiration! :)

    @R17D5D 6 років тому

    I really like this idea. You have been to some simply incredible locations, and with your insight into landscape photography, and your gifted eye for a beautiful composition, videos like these are gold for photographers of all ranges - whether they be just starting out and dreaming of where to go, or experienced travel photographers that are looking for other/new ideas. Please do more of these.
    As a personal note, you posted more of your own photos in this video than you normally do, and that’s fantastic. This is another opportunity to let your following see more of your work, especially in one place as opposed to many videos to get the whole experience.

  • @muhammadmustafa6061
    @muhammadmustafa6061 6 років тому

    I like all your videos since the very beginning, not only because of the beautiful images that you take, but also because of the less beautiful ones that you show too much efforts to shoot! And about this video, I really enjoyed it so much until you said that you didn’t care how the people will photograph their shots! We care about your videos and we are always there when you upload any of them and we care so much which means that you also should care! And even if a lot of people who watch the video didn’t even noticed it, I am sure that the ones who noticed it, didn’t feel right about it!
