    Nothing better than camping. It's good for the soul. Add in landscape Photography and you are at peace with the world. I'm extremely thankful I began this journey. Aside of my God who saved my soul, landscape Photography saved my life in a very dark time as a returning combat veteran.. Thank you so much for your continued inspiration Thomas.

    “Photography is partially a excuse” (to go camping) Brilliant.

    i love the way you have no music, but just birds chirping in the first 2 mins or so. No actual music can beat the beautiful bird songs. Lovely video

    Our favorite moments have to be camping in the Eastern Sierras. Our first ball head was designed during our backpacking days and shooting medium and large format film. There is nothing better than the excitement of an adventure and being able to capture the memory of the beauty of nature. Life is Good. I hope your videos inspire others to be a part of the 5% that venture past the side of the road and find their own favorite moments.

    Stunning Tom. I remember watching your cloud inversion video 5 or 6 years ago. It was definitely one of the top 3 videos that got me into my crazy hobby. I was gobsmacked by the view from your tent. It came at a point in my life when I needed something inspirational. Thanks mate. I owe ya 👍🏻

      You're not alone, Paul. I got a camera in 2013 and started shooting all sorts of stuff, eventually gravitating towards timelapse. That particular video really inspired me, too, and I had a few adventures of my own. I still want more, even now. Even though I'm 55 and haven't been camping for a couple of years... I'm not old yet!

    Love the moment when the tripod fell down, the focus changes from distance to nearest grass. Simple and attractive composition.

    You should do more of these cinematic compilation/montage videos, looking back at the past is honestly so fun to do - and also please make a video about starting out with landscape photography and how you get to where you are (i.e. showing photos from when you were a beginner to where you are now!)

  • @newjerseywales
    @newjerseywales 3 роки тому

    I appreciate that your videos have a tone / theme that I can't quite find the right words to describe. You are talking about photography in its broader and true spirit. A lot of photography channels on YT are really just camera review channels that offer little for photography as an art form.

    I think that image with the tent at the Lake District is the one I would instantly think of when thinking of all your vlogs, if one image were to come to mind. Being outdoors at times and with conditions like that is what it's all about. The best time I've ever had outdoors in nature was at the Lake District at Buttermere on what was the most sensational morning of my life. Like on top of that mountain there was no wind, just complete calm, silence and peacefulness... and the conditions and light were just stunning. I'd love to go camping more though as I've never wild camped anywhere, it looks amazing. Thanks for sharing this video.

    Dear Thomas, I am Ahmet Elhan from Turkey. I have been a loyal subscriber of yours since your very first videos. I'm a beginner level photographer and I have started filming my photography experiences just like you. I hope to get this as a challenge for myself to push myself out more and improve my photography. You have been and still are a great inspiration for me and my photography. I have started to watch all of your videos from the beginning to get ideas for filming. Thanks for everything man, and best wishes 👋👋

    I watched your videos all day yesterday, and this morning I watched this one during breakfast. I was immediately able to tell the step up in quality on this one. I wish I knew what trail this is. All I can think about now is hiking up one of these mountains and taking something portfolio-worthy. Thanks for all the hard work on these videos.

    Awesome compilation of your trips Thomas. That cloud inversion really looked amazing. Stunning images mate, thanks for sharing the video. Makes me really appreciate the freedom of what we use to have travelling the world. Can’t wait to get back out there again one day 👍🙏

    Glad to revisit your hike and camp up the Sahale Arm, my first PNW camp many years ago. It is truly a stunnin' place to see, and it's a happy to thought to know the place moved you as well and, in turn, shared your experience there with all of us so beautifully, as always.

    Just discovered this video almost a year and a half since you posted it. I've been a subscriber for awhile and have watched a bunch of your previous videos - but this one somehow eluded me until today. I want to start camping this fall in order to photograph sunrises, but I've never packed a tent and gear for an overnight in the wilderness. I found this video to be truly inspiring about what is possible with the investment of time and hard work, not only for the images captured, but for the editing and storytelling which transformed a vlog into a wonderfully crafted documentary-style film. This should be the promo for a university degree in Landscape Photography :) Always enjoy your work.

    Another great video. I admire you for your hard work and showing what it takes to get the photographs that you get. The cost of travel whether it is local or international is only a portion of the business. The nice photo equipment you use along with camping gear. I am so looking forward to your upcoming book. The cost is money well spent on my part. Keep up the good work📸

    14:00 Some improvement over that: I fotograph one finger before a pano series and zwo fingers after. Especially when you are compositionally insecure like me and you are shooting multiple versions of the pano and in between some single shots this helps a lot.

      Thomas´s idea is good yours is even a little more refined. I often like to try multiple exposures and was always annoyed that I couldn't just quickly make a new folder to keep them together. I guess that problem is now solved thanks very much to you and Thomas.

Also, I will be contacing UA-cam on my quest to gain a 'Double thumbs up' option for the best of the best videos. 😀 👍👍Jim (A new and quite excited subscriber!)

    For several years now, Thomas, I've been telling you that the videos where you climbed a mountain and spent the night in a tent to await the sunrise were your most interesting and philosophical. All of the fancy gear in your fancy van is nice, but not comparable to your nights in the mountains and your comments on the trail getting there. You've summed that up pretty well in this one.
