Great video, Mads! Even though I do prefer to be a “lone wolf” as you put it, and try for original compositions, I can think of 2 other reasons for photographing famous locations. 1) If you are spending a lot of money to go to a faraway place, it’s a good idea to include some “safe” photos where you know you can get something good. This way you won’t come away empty-handed, because trying to be original carries a greater risk of failure. I like to do these shots at the beginning of a trip, so that once I have captured them, the pressure is off, I know I have something good, and I can spend the rest of my time being creative without any fear of leaving with nothing. 2) These shots build confidence that you too can do it. This is especially useful if you hit a dry patch where you aren’t happy with any of your recent photos, and capturing a famous location can give you a much needed boost.
Jon Grall those are very wise thoughts! Thanks again Jon :)
What Jon said. Absolutely true.
I absolutely agree. I was littery thinking about this this morning. Why do I take a 'safe shot' when arriving at specific location? Well for the exact reasons mentioned above. It builds confidence and gives you the flexibility to go creative. And when you go creative you can succeed or/and you can fail. If you succeed you win, if you fail you learn. and those are the times you learn and can challenge yourself. And when you're being challenged and you have a good outcome it gives fulfilment. This is a method that works for me personally. So a 'safe shot' is not something I do for the 'Gram' but it is something for me that helps me in my photography.
The under-the-bridge shot was my favorite.
Theresa Rice yeah, I like that one too the most :)
I wow'ed like 3 times at that last picture.
Haha, thanks a lot, Perrin! :)
I think one of the benefits as a photographer taking photos in a well known area is that it challenges you to find that composition that others have missed. And when you do it’s a great reward.
Seeing this video I still have a long way to go......but it's inspiring.....it really is.....
Yes, there's a long way, but the journey itself is very satisfactory :)
I photograph these locations mostly for myself - for the experience of beeing there! There is a good reason why those locations are so well photographed, and the photos make great memories of that visit. Your camera will take you places 🙂
Exactly! It'll take you all sorts of places :)
Long comment alert*
Pictures and videos like these had Hamnoy & Reine on my bucket list for years as an aspiring landscape photographer. 🤩 I had my first visit a few days ago (Summer 2022) and gotta say, this visit has forever taught me to research ahead of time where the sun will be when planning any visit photography wise.
The fishing villages with the mountainous backgrounds make this area one of a kind no doubt, but it wasn't until I went out around 11pm(sunset) that I realized what makes those breathtaking photos of this area so eye-catching. The lighting placement and snow on the ground.
While the midnight sun does provide an advantage to prolonged golden hours, I completely overlooked these two crucial factors.
That said, I'm sure the south facing view from Reinebringen during this time is still majestic, however, I frustratingly can't speak from experience. I'm an avid hiker but I caught COVID literally the day before my arrival to this area and it completely crushed me physically and emotionally once I realized I had no chance in making the climb.
Just a heads up for anyone looking to visit during the summer solstice and thinks COVID no longer exists in Norway. 😷
For me, photographing "well shot" locations is not about copying someone else more using other peoples shots (like yours Mads) to inspire my own photography. There are infinitely better shots done by immensely better photographers than make of most of the shots on my wall but all the shots on my wall are taken by me which is what matters to me. So I say don't be afraid of the well photographed location embrace it and try to get a shot of your own that you are proud to hang on your wall. BTW, another inspiring video Mads, keep them coming.
Topsyrm thanks a lot! Yeah, that's what most important. If you like it and if it's yours!
Soooooooooooo beautiful! Thank you!
Absolutely stunning images Mads. A four hour golden hour sounds good to me!
Thanks a lot, Dom! Yeah it worked out quite well ;)
Different angles of the same scene ~ every one equally beautiful. What a location!
John McFarland thanks a lot! :)
Stunning location,Stunning images
Thanks a lot Richard. Yeah they turned out great :)
So many places to go, don't think I will make all of them. Nice location and some memorable photographs.
Mike Lowery thanks a lot. Yeah there's plenty to see out there in the world! :)
YES YES YES MADS! Love it!
HAHA! Thank you, Henrik! Always appreciated from a Norwegian :D
Hope to meet you again someday sooner rather than later :)
Magic! Pure Magic!! Thank you kindly!!!
If the journey is as important as any images captured then I say go to the iconic, often photographed locations. Your images are the first I've seen and they are truly amazing! As an aside, I love the music bed.
Thanks a lot Brad! And yes, the journey is as important! :)
WOW!
Love the new series, landscape photographers show how beautiful this world really is!
Thank you very much, John! :)
Amazing start to the series, looking forward to seeing the other episodes 👍🏻
Medwyn Roberts thanks a lot! They'll be good too ;)
Extraordinary!
Thank you very much :)
Wow, Mads, another great video! That last shot was insane.
Another reason I think to go to iconic locations, is to experience them deeply and understand WHY they've become so iconic. What is it about the location that draws people there? Learning exactly what those reasons are can then be applied to future locations that you're scouting out, and don't yet know about.
Thanks for sharing!
You are very welcome and thanks a lot Zalman! I think you're right :)
Epic Mads, I can see why people shoot these well known locations , stunning x
Exactly! They kinda draw you in! :)
Beautiful photos Mads. Stunning scenery.
Thank you very much :)
Your enthusiasm is amazing. And your photography is spectacular. Great video Mads, as always, full of good information and creative insight. I always enjoy getting out into the Landscape just to take in the sheer beauty of our world and to then try to convey that feeling I had into my images .
I'm so happy to hear that! Yeah, that's the best feeling :)
All I have to say is wow! This video has made me an instant fan! I am so excited to keep on watching thank you for sharing your experiences
Aww thank you, Bobby! Very happy about that and I hope you enjoy the rest :)
Amazing photos, especially the one at 9:58, well done.
Thanks a lot, Lars! Pleased to hear that :)
Wow! 4 hours of golden hour! Last shot was amazing. Well photographed locations are good for beginner's to improve their skills using well known images as guide.
Kathleen Hart thanks a lot, yeah that light was just crazy! :)
Awh Well. Thats another place on the Bucket list! Fantastic video Mads!! Really liked the first photo with the contrast between the street lights and houses against the Blue of the sky and the towering Mountain in the background.
Thanks a lot, Shaun! I hope you'll go one day ;)
fantastic, in awe yet again Mads, my particular favourite was the image taken from below the bridge, the light around the peak was truly amazing, very much looking forward to the next video :-)
ian hill thanks a lot! Yeah, that's my favorite too ;)
Beautiful location, dream to visit 😀awesome pictures 😮
Jiri Vrablik thanks a lot and yes! Dream visit :)
Stunning again Mads, look forward to the next one, keep up the good work.
Thank you very much, Phil! Next one will be great too :)
Hello Mads Peter I watched with awe and wow your epic locations in Iceland and now I landed in Lofoton Islands in your journey.you inspire us to go to the next level wherever you begin.if you are nature lover you want more.If you are a beginner photographer you want more.
If you are an advanced photographer you want more.if you are an artist you want more.we always come asking for more.
Never to be satisfied with what we received before.
As regards light I should say the Light on Iceland and Lofoton and on Isle of skye are the most devine lights I have ever seen.please do shoot in Scotland including the Isle of skye.
Best wishes for your great journey.
There is always another peak to climb for a mountaineer.your mother and father would be proud of you.
While many may photograph a particular location, the story being told is never the exact same. Patience & persistence can lead to your ability to tell a new story in a familiar location! That also remains true for revisiting locations you have previously photographed. Photography is art, but it also, to me, more about telling the viewer a story.
Those are some very nice thoughts PEte! :)
Great video, Mads! Why would I photograph these iconic locations? It's simple for me. On my walls, hang my images! I'm guessing any non-photography person has never seen any of those iconic images we photographers talk about.
Exactly, doing it for yourself is the most important :)
Superb as always Mads!
Thanks a lot, John! Much appreciated.
Have enjoyed your photos for a while didnt know you had a youtube channel! So good! That location is incredible, blown away.
Thank you very much, Jon! Well, welcome here as well! I hope you enjoy the content :)
Belles images d'un spot que j'ai de plus en plus envie d'aller voir. La dernière photo est sublime.
TheMarcao93 thank you very much! :)
Wonderful images! That portrait shot from the rocks is a one of a kind image. Fantastic as always!
James Johnston thanks a lot man! Much appreciated :)
Very nice. Again. And a new item on the bucketlist! Enjoyed it big time.
I'm very happy to hear that Martien! :)
Awesome location and images Mads..........Excellent work
Thanks a lot, Chris! Much appreciated :)
So, so glad that I've come across your channel and other social media sites. Love the videos, keep up the great content.
Eg5100 thanks a lot! I will :)
I have planned to go to Lofoten in 1 and a half years, I will follow your episode carefully it will allow me to plan places to visit thank you Mads
ylemort you are very welcome! :)
Wow your vlogs are amazing, very informative and educational and your images are second to non, in a word superb.
Thank you so much, David! :)
Great video as always and stunning photo's, Norway is very high on my list just as you explained due to how much we love these shots in the photographic community
It's indeed a very special place! :)
Another superb location and video keep it up
Pat Sheerin thank you so very much!
I had to come and watch this video again. This is by far my favorite mpi video (watched under a different account). The final sequence with the image and music selection is absolllutly majestic! Thank you once again, Mads
Incredible location and photography. Definitely on my bucket list.
Incredible Mads, this place is on my hitlist. Perfect timing! Thank you for another epic video and I cannot wait to watch the rest of the series, take notes and then get it booked!
Darren Blight that sounds awesome! And thanks ;)
That last image....stunning!! Love the different angle and portrait orientation:)
Thanks a lot! I'm very happy to hear that :)
I think it dosent matter how many times place has been photographed it will always be unique to you as youv've captured a moment in time that will never be repeated. Think you prove that perfectly each week Mads, as again these images were breathtaking. The last one was magnificent as the detail of the dark rocks in the foreground were balanced beautifully with the cloud rainbow above the mountain. Truly superb yet again
scotty4418 thanks a lot, yet again ;) And you're right. All moments are unique :)
Fantasic vlog mads, awesome images especially under the bridge shots. Again brilliantly presented
Thank you so much, Jim! :)
Another cracking video. Always agree new compositions and locations are ideal, however these places are worth visiting for a reason as well. My local beauty is Glencoe and I can't get enough of it, happy to try others but equally happy to go back time and time again.
Zander Rutherford oh boy how I miss Glencoe! Could return there myself over and over :)
Another excellent adventure!
SO excited to find your channel. I have a trip booked this summer to Lofoten.
Very happy you enjoy the videos :) Good luck in Lofoten!
Just been to the biggest photography show in the UK this weekend. I saw a similar composition to what you shot as a finalist in three separate photo awards and on the front page of a brochure - people clearly want to still see great images regardless of the number of times they have been shot before!
Indeed! It's the same with the tunnel view in Yosemite. It's just a timeless classic ;)
Great video, those images were stunning
Thank you very much, Usama! :)
WOW Mads truly amazing😁😁👍👍
steven peachey thank you very much! 😁
Great video as usual Mads. You had some great light indeed. I have been a few times in that spot and never had so good conditions. However I know that on that bridge you can sometimes see more than 40 (!) photographers in the same time. The ofoten are a true photographic paradise but so little of photographers really try to explore it more. You can on and on and on and on see the same pictures from the same few spots. Even if I love the place I am getting partially tired of seeing them again and again unless the light conditions are spectacular... You had some great light so it was a pleasure to look at the images. It is great that you decided to go under the bridge as the composition is really nice :) waiting for the next episode now :)
Maciej Markiewicz thanks a lot! Yeah if it's the exact same conditions it become a bit repetitive ;)
Great stuff again.
Great images. My personal view is why should you not visit somewhere just because many others have! You’re right about outside the landscape photo community. I have just spent a few days in Keswick, The Lake District in the UK. It’s one of the most photographed places in the world but I still got great reactions to my images and had a wonderful time creating them.
Yes, exactly! Nobody knows about the places, so we might as well shoot it :)
Great video Mads. Could really see you are enjoying Yourself in beautiful Lofoten. I think i really wont get tired of Lofoten or the rest of the North. The only reason i photograph is to ground my self and reenergize again. And if someone like my shots well...thats a bonus :-) looking forward to the rest of the series. Stay safe :-)
Thank you very much, Bente! :)
Loved every bit of your video Mads...it really pulls you in the scene...and I have to say your voice is so calm and composed, it's like adding extra cherry on the cake....whenever am low and needs motivation, I make it a point to watch your videos to boost myself...keep up with the good work...love all your series on Iceland, Norway and Faroe islands....😊
Thank you very much! Happy you feel like that about my videos :)
Beautiful work mate wow 😮 thanks for the tips
Stead Stead you are very welcome :)
Thank you for opening another great series on photography. For me, someone very new to photography, these iconic locations are a great learning opportunity. Because they have been shot to death in all weather conditions you can try to replicate the shots and by doing so learn master scouting skills, composition, working with current weather... Rinse and repeat :)
Wojciech Szela yes, that is also a good reason :)
Love it, thanks !!!
You are very welcome Jan-Uwe!
Fantastisk Mads, deilig å se video/bilde fra hjemlandet=) The obvious reasons to shoot famous for me would be; 1. They are usually amazing locations and can offer you amazing images. 2. To have it in my "collection" as I think photography is in a way collecting and saving memories in a sense, and you should never feel discouraged by the fact that "everyone" has shot that location, there is a reason why they have=)
I think those are also very good reasons Steffen :)
Breathtaking video and location Mads. The pictures are more than beautiful, they're stunning. Like yourself i'm also taking these "more than once taken pictures" because there's no reason for not taking them. Trying to get the shot which so many others has taken gives me the chance to evaluate me against these other photographers. Try to get the shot with other weather conditions is often a challenge. After the iconic shots has taken i've got breathing space and stressles moments for making other compositions and try-outs.
Yup, there's exactly no reason to not take them ;)
I always find it interesting for photograph a well-photographed location in unique weather :)
Yet again another great video mads. I’m only just really starting out in landscape as love photographing wildlife especially big cats, my reason for going to well known locations would be to experience the location, get my own photo plus make friends with other photographers. Can’t wait for the next episode next week.
Those are all very good reasons! Next episode will be great! :D
WOW..beautiful
The way you say ‘we had it all’. :-D awesome
Haha, good to hear ;D
First of all, thank you for the insightful travel tips! I have typically shied away from photographing famous places or at least avoid the compositions that are often the 'default'. However, I do see the value in stepping into the shoes of another photographer to learn by trying to replicate the look. I wouldn't display the image as a representation of my own voice, but the exercise is educational. I have seen that very composition of Hamnøy so many times on IG. The first time I was blown away. The 20th time, I found myself wondering if this was the same photo being passed around. I will go there at some point. I will point my lens at that lovely scene and I am not sure if I will publish it.
It's just a beautiful location! And if you enjoy it, of course you should shoot it :)
Fabulous work. We are so inspired!
fantastic work
Thank you very much, Rolf! :)
Waouhh (ok it's french for wowww...), we are going to Faroe next month and your videos are very interesting for us to prepare this trip. Now I'm watching this video about Lofoten and Norway which are definitely a next destination for us in 2/3 years. Very beautiful pictures....
Hubert PILLOY you are very welcome! I'm happy you like the content :)
thanks mads, this was amazing. was there two years ago. can't wait to get back there one day. looking forward to the next episode :)
/andreas
Thanks a lot, Andreas! Yeah, I'd love to return too!
I agree with those reasons highlighted by your good self Mads and others for going to these places. But I think the one word you used 'Iconic' really does sum up these locations. They have a reputation and garner commendations simply because they offer just that little bit more than other places that are merely fantastic. So whether it's Liathach of Scotland, Keipen of Senja, Moraine Lake in Canada, Lions Head in Capetown - they are simply just truly awesome to the general tourist, the happy snapper and the pro photographer alike.
Everyone can gain something from them at their own particular level.
Alas, I haven't as yet made it to Rheinebringen or Vestrahorn but they're certainly high up on my bucket list !
Great Video again Mads, Ive just discovered your channel and I think its one of the best out there, cant believe you only have 12k subscribers, your enthusiasm and knowledge is top class, Now I want to go to Norway!!!! hopefully the coffee isn't too expensive haha!
Thank you so much, Michael! :) Yeah, well I don't pay for features and I try to grow the channel as organically as possible. Apparently, that takes time :)
Mads, these photos are masterful! Great work portraying the mood :)
Thank you very much Adrian! :)
That was amazing. I really enjoyed it!
Love this. I have seen so many shots from the bridge, they are always so eye catching. But the shot from the rocks below is truly incredible. I love what moving 100 feet one way or another in known locations can do for your composition.
Nick Noyes yes! It can completely change the entire scene :)
Cracking video :-) And stunning shots too :-)
Thanks a lot, Iain!
Thanks for the link to all! Time to binge watch with a glass of Merlot! :)
Why anyone would give this a thumbs down, is beyond me. You've an incredible talent as both photographer and educator.
I used to want to visit Lofoten, but got bored with the endless photos of the place... You've just put it back on my radar! Loved the video! 👍🏻
Haha wow! That actually says a lot!
Great shots by the way! You should go there in the summer next time!
I'd love to go back in the summertime! It looks so peaceful up there :)
Going to an iconic place is always a new experience to me! All my shots I can remember the weather, how worn out , who I met, the food experiences. Its a whole lot more than just getting the perfect shot! I go with enthusiasm to see and grow. I love your personality because you bring so much energy and knowledge to your production!
There's usually a good reason that locations become famous, and that's because they offer a particularly good composition. I'm not going to *not* visit those just because other photographers already have. The light will be different every time so you will still get a fairly unique image, and I'm also going to be sharing my images with people who may not have seen those before. Most of my friends are not photographers, so when they see pictures of a famous location I have taken, it's often the first time they've seen it as they don't follow other photographers on insta/500px etc. - obviously they've all seen things like the Eiffel tower, but none of them knew where Lofoten was, or Kirkjufell, or any other similar spots. I think us photographers overrate how common somewhere is in our own little social world :)
You are absolutely right James! Agree with you 100% :)
Gorgeous video and photographs! Makes me miss home, which is in the Vesterålen islands to the north-west of Lofoten. Good thing I'm going home for easter break! Looking forward to more videos from Lofoten!☺️
Oh wow, that's one amazing place to live! You're very lucky :)
Mads Peter Iversen I don't live there at the moment, sadly, but it is where I grew up and where my family still lives, so it'll always be home. And I agree, it's a fantastic area☺️
Stunning location and, as always, beautiful images. Who wouldn't want to take those iconic images?
I have no clue, I think all would ;)
Another reason for me to shoot a location already framed multiple times is, just like in any post processing tutorial your Guru give you the RAW files to play with now it's one step ahead you also get the location to play with. It's a good learning process for me. And you can always thank mother nature, if she throws in a few unique conditions like a rainbow or a shooting star. I am sure that will be a pleasant surprise.
Watching from Lofoten right now
love your videos. i'm just starting out and found your channel through other photographers but yours is very useful for people like me with info on comps & how to get to the location etc THANKS!
Great video and looking forward to this series. I’d love to shoot here one day.
Christian Schoter I hope you will! It's gorgeous :)
Oh WOW man this is sooo sick 😱🔥 Stunning pictures, perspectives and edit 👍🏻❤️
Thank you very much! :)
10:40 photo - wow...!
vargavideo thank you very much! :)
Excellent. Will be there in 3 weeks.....juuhuuu :-)
What an epic location, you would be foolish not to explore and take photos there even if is a well-photographed scene. My views are you hardly ever get the same weather and light, plus your composition is your expression so your photo will have a uniqueness that will contribute to your personal satisfaction and that's what it is all about. You could have the benefit of meeting other photographers as you have already mentioned.
Keith Linforth you are very right about the weather. And meeting other people are always nice :)
This is a series I’ve been waiting for for a long time! Excellent first video can’t wait for the rest 😍
I'm very happy to hear you're not disappointed! :D
Excellent stuff Mads.. Im going with some photograph buddies to Lofoten in aug/sept and these videos have been super helpful. Many thx. Roger
You're most welcome, Roger! Good luck :)
Totally agree with your sentiments Mads. There's something very special about being there and experiencing a place. Also, as photographers I think we'd all rather put OUR image on the wall instead of SOMEONE ELSE'S image! great video, as usual Mads :)
Yeah I often think like that myself. I can make something that awakes certain memories and emotions in myself! :)
