Fujifilm, let Gavin keep the camera. His happiness oozing from every video not only promotes your cameras but significantly uplifts the mental health of all who watch in these difficult times....you would literally be saving the world. Oh, and while your at it send me a GFX100 too.....and a few lenses.
Gavin - you make me smile every single time. Yours is far and away my favourite channel on UA-cam, and Amanda is just so damn adorable. And the thing that makes your videos such a compelling watch is you're actually an incredible photographer. My three prints just arrived on Friday, and I feel so privileged to have them. They're getting framed on going on the wall. As for the GFX, Fulifilm would be mad not to let you keep the bloody camera. They'll never find a better, more engaging ambassador for their products than you. How the hell can they lose? Love your work.
Dear Fuji, while Gavin only has 68k subscribers, most of us live on his every word. As an example, 19K of us got engaged right after his engagement video aired. I have noticed about 22k Sony A7M4s recently hit eBay for sale, no doubt on the assumption Gavin is keeping the Fuji camera and we all will soon be joining him with a Fuji purchase once our gear is successfully sold. If you are not persuaded by pure economics, consider the heavier camera he will be schlepping will help him get into better shape. You may actually be helping save a life. You cannot put a price or profit analysis on that. #savehardcastleslife #smallbutmightyfollowers #iwant1too
If I were Fuji, I would be sponsoring the whole group of Fine Landscape Photographers in Canada, including Gavin, Brent, Adam and Brian. Each of them has made their Art entertaining and sublime viewing.
One of your smoothest and best productions with added value that you inspire folks to leave great comments that are entertaining as well. UA-cam needs to add time to your viewing numbers for people like me who put it on pause at the end to read all the comments!
Gavin to the Grammy Awards!!!!! The best worlds, photography plus hilarity humor scenes!!! And Fujifilm please give the GFX to Gavin please, he deserves and he is ( he will be) an excellent Fujifilm ambassador!!! 👌
You're not a bad photographer. And you take me to some of the greatest places to shoot. Oh, I forgot, thanks Brent. Seriously, sometimes some of us may forget just how good a photographer you are and that's a shame. Thanks!
You are, indeed, a funny man. Your number one fan did a great job! Best of the holidays to you both and a quick run to 1000000 subscribers in the new year. Thanks for all the entertainment.
Fujifilm, get in touch and just give Gavin the camera so that he can make a new book, called: 'CHASING AWE WITH GAVIN HARDCASTLE...and fujifilm. Theres a link, in the description...
Gavin that bluejay photo was fantastic: Mads - Gavin it was EPIC: Tom - Gavin It was Absolutely Stunning: Nigel - It simply doesn't get any better than that Gavin: Adam - Meh: Robert - and @12:55 just WOW !!!
I’ve spoken to Fuji and they said you can keep the camera and lenses. They also said to just ignore any emails that their staff may send asking for it to be returned.
Gavin, definitely one of your better videos of the past few months. Drop dead gorgeous Canadian scenery, mixed in with a little comedy, and even a mini review of the Fuji camera (c'mon Fuji at least give Gavin an extended loan of the gear...do you see the images he's making with your gear...what a spokesman for Fuji)! When you were pointing out the view from Brent's higher shooting location, am I correct...is there a viewing platform up there on the top of the Beehive as I saw a roofed structure of some sort? With all these beautiful locations Mr. Brent Henderson finds, I think he needs to stop being a personal trainer and do photo trip leading (of course with you, Gavin, leading the group).😉 Wonderful images Gavin of Lake Agnes! ♥
I don't know Gavin, attitude from ground hogs, food theft from birds, and now dissed by your "#1 fan! I thought Canadian's were courteous! Very fun! Love these longer videos. The Big BeeHive square shot is amazing. Good work.
Gavin, that Fuji camera is made for you!! The color science of Fuji + your photographic eyes = Awesome Photographs. I will keep my fingers crossed that you one day own that magnificent camera. 😊
OMG I can not believe I was just too lazy to hike to Lake Agnes. Three times I´ve been fortunate to visit Lake Louise. Can´t get any better than a Fuji camera I have the Xt2. Great images.
The Fuji GFX100s is a great Landscape camera. Its just a shame Fuji chose the smallest physical medium format sensor available. With a larger sensor Fuji could have had a fantastic Landscape camera.🦘
Awesome shots by you and Brent (Fabian, lol). That bird stealing your sandwich was incredible. I laughed so hard. That is a brave bird and he's forever immortalized in this video, lol. I have to say that ending was a bit of a shocker. Thanks for the review of the Fuji camera. I'm looking forward to the next video.
OUTSTANDING!! I'm sat here in the states, Michigan. We have 4 Great Lakes, miles of coastline, waterfalls, mountains, fall color and snow. I still get giddy seeing those Canadian Rocky vistas. Wonderful work Gavin! Gives all us tubby, old guys a feeling we could still get up there with you. Thank you.
Fujifilm could not have a better photographer to showcase this camera. They should reach out and get in touch. And babybel of course.... This channel cheers me up. Thank you so much
Enjoyed this video. To answer your question, I am sure Fuji would back up the money truck if you got 250,000 subscribers. But what you convinced me is that my full frame is all I need. Too much extra work to stack-merge the extra shots.
@Fujifilm let him keep this camera and lenses! @B&H buy him the camera Take special care of your lady. She is delightful, a unique addition to your videos. Keep on for those of us that can't hike those miles.
Fujifilm, for the love of Mike, please get in touch with Gavin and give him the camera so he can stop talking about his book. :) Beautiful shots Gavin.
Always an enjoyable watch. Entertaining, and informational. The GFX100s is incredible but for me personally I'd need a whole new computer to handle those files. After a lot of sleepless nights I'm going with the X-pro 3 only because the insurance co are forcing one on me after I drown my beloved ETRSi. Fuji would be mad not to give ya that camera. Great advertising for them.
The only thing Fujifilm could do that would be more appropriate than letting you keep the GFX 100S would be if they just randomly selected a subscriber on this channel who actually made that suggestion to also get one, along with a couple of lenses. Just saying. Being a birder, I thought I'd let you know that your avian model was a Steller's Jay, not a Blue Jay. The sandwich thief is a Clark's Nutcracker. But its rude behavior should earn it the new name "Gavin's Ballbuster".
Fujifilm… just give the man the camera. No doubt the portfolio shots coming from the camera could be featured and preserved for posterity in the upcoming “Chasing Awe… part deux” (tm)
Wonderfully stunning images, some of your best I’ve seen recently. Aren’t you lucky to have Fabian as a sidekick? His new locks cut down on the glare when he removes his hat on those sunny days or you’d have to shoot at f13 with a 4-stop ND filter.
The light on Mt. Lefroy was stunning....in Brent's shot! Seriously, what a lovely spot and looks like it was well worth the hike...loved the last skit as well...I like this kid! Another great video, Gavin...thanks for taking us along!
Fuji just give him the camera --- you know it makes sense. When Gavin wins Photographer of the Year, the extra publicity Fuji will get will be unimageable.
Bravo Gavin! Premium content!! Incredibly beautiful images/scenery mixed with a genuine belly laugh at the end! Fuji please gift/sponsor Gavin the kit you provided!
As an old guy there isn't much that impresses me, but thanks for taking us to a place that I think is the most amazing thing I've seen. I actually shouted. I came across some of those ripples in a piece of rock in AZ and I suspected it had to do with a sand beach. Now it's comfirmed. Lichen subscribe.
So many things to comment on here this time Gavin... first, stunning location this time. The traffic jam and unbelievable amount of people there was both wonderful and awful at the same time. So many places in our area have been trampled and to me, ruined by so many people going into the outdoors. It appears, the that commercialism has driven some of this. There are no good answer when it comes to how to manage it all unfortunately but it's still heart breaking to see what damage people an do to our wild areas. The video, as always was perfect combo of humor, discussions of your approach to shooting the and technical challenges of taking images from that day. The ending was absolutely hilarious, that little girl deserves an Oscar. Brent is a great addition to your vlogs with his dead pan looks at you some times and the skits he's been in with you as well. Last but not least, that Fuji GFS100s is a stunning piece of technology and produces wonderful images. It's one of those cameras, just by using it, seems to give photographers super powers when creating image. At approximately $15,000US to get a decent set up though, puts it out of most non professional, and some pros too, price ranges for that equipment. How would most people justify that cost is beyond me. I do hope that Fuji can put that camera and lenses you have used on permanent loan to you so you can keep using it and not have to fork out all that dough. See you again real soon... Cheers, Rob
How much effort and ideas you put in your Videos, it is such a pleasure watching them! And special thanks for your explanation about your ideas about the composition.
Thank you for freezing, sweating and then freezing so I can sit here in total comfort enjoying another wonderful video. Absolutely stunning scenery and your photos are nice also.....LOL
Order My Book: www.fototripper.com/chasing-awe-landscape-photography-book-gavin-hardcastle/
Hi, big fan from Bahrain, can you please stop fighting it and get a 6x7 film camera. I'll buy all your books
Every time, Gavin tops all his previous videos. More entertaining than anything on Netflix and better for your mental health too.
Big truth :D 👍
I agree 100%!
Fujifilm, let Gavin keep the camera. His happiness oozing from every video not only promotes your cameras but significantly uplifts the mental health of all who watch in these difficult times....you would literally be saving the world. Oh, and while your at it send me a GFX100 too.....and a few lenses.
That kid at the end... might actually become a movie star one day. Superb performance. 😅😂
My favorite part of this episode was the last 10 seconds….. LOL
Gavin - you make me smile every single time. Yours is far and away my favourite channel on UA-cam, and Amanda is just so damn adorable. And the thing that makes your videos such a compelling watch is you're actually an incredible photographer. My three prints just arrived on Friday, and I feel so privileged to have them.

Love your work.
Thanks for the support Peter. Glad you're happy with those prints and yeah, she's my precious girl.
@@fototripper Good for you, mate. I'm genuinely happy for the both of you. :-)
@@fototripper ohh, so your fuji is feminine now :) “your precious” :p
I feel so sorry for the people that don´t stick around for that last skit!!! Hilarious!!! 🤣🤣🤣
That was hilarious. I can't believe he asked a random kid to be part of it.
would have honestly thought it was real not going to lie until the end.
Hi Gavin it’s Jaylin (using my dad’s account) and thank you for the wonderful book (your number one fan)!
PS: your book is not a POS. ;)
Hiya Jaylin. Glad you liked the book and I reckon you aced your first acting debut :)
Jaylin--great job you did on your part of Gavin's video. Maybe you can give Gavin some acting lessons?

I fact checked this and it's all 100% legit
What a pisser! I agree, Jonathan!!
the ending is worth more than all the minutes in all other fototripper videos combined.
Finally, a professional photographer with a sense of humour…
Fujifilm just give Amanda the camera. She's earned it!
If I were Fuji, I would be sponsoring the whole group of Fine Landscape Photographers in Canada, including Gavin, Brent, Adam and Brian. Each of them has made their Art entertaining and sublime viewing.
That ending caused me to choke on the pizza I was stuffing in my face... which in turn caused a coughing fit, all the while crying with laughter. 😐😐😐
One of your smoothest and best productions with added value that you inspire folks to leave great comments that are entertaining as well. UA-cam needs to add time to your viewing numbers for people like me who put it on pause at the end to read all the comments!
Fujifilm please give Gavin this camera and lens. He did a FANTASTIC JOB PROMOTING YOUR CAMERA. I’m thinking of buying one 👌👌👌👌
They didn't.
Gavin to the Grammy Awards!!!!! The best worlds, photography plus hilarity humor scenes!!! And Fujifilm please give the GFX to Gavin please, he deserves and he is ( he will be) an excellent Fujifilm ambassador!!! 👌
What a great camera, I'll have to see if Fuji will give me one, oh wait they already did 😁😆
but can you keep it?
hahaha that girl at the end 😂 loved the images from little beehive ( I mean big) 😅
wahahaha, that ending... Fuji, Gavin owns that camera now.
The ending with that little girl... was gold! LOLOLOL
Best end of your videos EVER!!
Laughed for minutes with it!
This is just a pure happiness therapy! Thanks for sharing all your trips with us!
Awesome video. You’re number one fan is adorable.
You're not a bad photographer. And you take me to some of the greatest places to shoot. Oh, I forgot, thanks Brent. Seriously, sometimes some of us may forget just how good a photographer you are and that's a shame. Thanks!
You are, indeed, a funny man. Your number one fan did a great job! Best of the holidays to you both and a quick run to 1000000 subscribers in the new year. Thanks for all the entertainment.
"Lichen sub-scribe..."... that was masterful.
I'm dying at Jaylin at the end🤣. Oh, @Fujifilm, I will be buying a gfx100 strictly because of this video... eventually...when it's on sale.
Thank you for the stunning images and for taking me somewhere I would never have been able to see.
Damn this was epic Gavin!
Cheers mate ;)
Fujifilm, get in touch and just give Gavin the camera so that he can make a new book, called: 'CHASING AWE WITH GAVIN HARDCASTLE...and fujifilm.
Theres a link, in the description...
Gavin that bluejay photo was fantastic: Mads - Gavin it was EPIC: Tom - Gavin It was Absolutely Stunning: Nigel - It simply doesn't get any better than that Gavin: Adam - Meh: Robert - and @12:55 just WOW !!!
I’ve spoken to Fuji and they said you can keep the camera and lenses. They also said to just ignore any emails that their staff may send asking for it to be returned.
Reckon you've earned that camera lugging it all the way up there! Love your images and Brent's is amazing as well. Thanks for another great video.
WOW, that square image was wonderful! Cute kid - she played along so well! Oh, and hey, Fuji, let Gavin keep the camera!
Gavin, definitely one of your better videos of the past few months. Drop dead gorgeous Canadian scenery, mixed in with a little comedy, and even a mini review of the Fuji camera (c'mon Fuji at least give Gavin an extended loan of the gear...do you see the images he's making with your gear...what a spokesman for Fuji)!

Wonderful images Gavin of Lake Agnes! ♥
Looks like it, I never made it up there.
Nice images but my favorite part of the video was your #1 fan Jaylin.
Hahaha the young lady at the end was hilarious! Brilliant vlog as always 😃👍🏻
Ha ha, hilarious ending! Epic images. So much detail and colour. Well done for all the hiking!
Thank you for your review of the GFX100s. The Q is absurd as Ansel Adams used large format cameras. Keep up your good work. Much success to you.
I don't know Gavin, attitude from ground hogs, food theft from birds, and now dissed by your "#1 fan! I thought Canadian's were courteous! Very fun! Love these longer videos. The Big BeeHive square shot is amazing. Good work.
Who is the instant star that stole the show at the end. She is fantastic!
Fujifilm -give Gavin the camera in exchange for a copy of his book. There's a link, in the description.
Fujifilm, come on, give him the camera and lenses. After all, he did lug it up the mountain and he took some beautiful photos.
Second book confirmed: Chasing Brent by Gavin Hardcastle
Gavin, that Fuji camera is made for you!! The color science of Fuji + your photographic eyes = Awesome Photographs. I will keep my fingers crossed that you one day own that magnificent camera. 😊
Totally unexpected ending, totally cracked me up! Give him the camera Fujifilm. Just do it!
You deserve a million+ subscribers i don't shoot landscape but you are too funny to miss!...
Fujifilm give him the camera!
Wow, the girl at the end of the video is definitely a future acting star!!
OMG I can not believe I was just too lazy to hike to Lake Agnes. Three times I´ve been fortunate to visit Lake Louise. Can´t get any better than a Fuji camera I have the Xt2. Great images.
Most underrated channel EVER!
The Fuji GFX100s is a great Landscape camera.
Its just a shame Fuji chose the smallest physical medium format sensor available.
With a larger sensor Fuji could have had a fantastic Landscape camera.🦘
"Lichen...subscribe" - I groaned so hard at that, keep up the pun work Gavin.
Awesome shots by you and Brent (Fabian, lol). That bird stealing your sandwich was incredible. I laughed so hard. That is a brave bird and he's forever immortalized in this video, lol. I have to say that ending was a bit of a shocker. Thanks for the review of the Fuji camera. I'm looking forward to the next video.

Wonderful work Gavin! Gives all us tubby, old guys a feeling we could still get up there with you. Thank you.
Amazing hike. End had me laughing, against my better judgment.
Fujifilm could not have a better photographer to showcase this camera. They should reach out and get in touch. And babybel of course....
This channel cheers me up. Thank you so much
Great video and stunning results. Oh and Fuji…you know it makes sense 😉
You tells em Glyn!
Thank you for share with us this fantastic day with brilliant shoots! FujiFilm give him this magnificent camera!
There's only one word for this weeks vlog - "Magnifiqwue" - well done mate, Stunning :)
I'll give the little girl a BIG thumbs up for that book throwing .....lolololol
Enjoyed this video. To answer your question, I am sure Fuji would back up the money truck if you got 250,000 subscribers. But what you convinced me is that my full frame is all I need. Too much extra work to stack-merge the extra shots.

@B&H buy him the camera
Take special care of your lady. She is delightful, a unique addition to your videos.
Keep on for those of us that can't hike those miles.
Come on fuji, just give him the camera, look how happy he makes us...
In your ownm words. This images are brilliant, Gavin. Every foodstepp up ro this mountain were worth it.
Really great work.
Beautiful photos Gavin, love the humour. You and Amanda are looking good together.
Omg Gavin! That shot with the bird in there is just perfect!
Very funny at the end when the girl throws away Gavins book 🤣🤣🤣
Outstanding light, outstanding photographs! I wish you every success in getting Fuji Film to donate the gear to you!
The bit with the kid is priceless, LMAO funny. Some great shots, as usual. Cheers!
Any one else like it b4 watching ☺️
Fuji! Give Gavin the camera! And lenses.
Laughed many times in this one, as always!
Beautiful and masterful as always Gavin.
Fujifilm, for the love of Mike, please get in touch with Gavin and give him the camera so he can stop talking about his book. :) Beautiful shots Gavin.
Ah, the Canadian Rockies. Spectacular. Planning a trip there for next year. The little girl is hilarious. She gave the book a good toss too.
Fuji, this show will sell a lot of your cameras! I am sure you will do the right thing!😉🙏🏾
Always an enjoyable watch. Entertaining, and informational. The GFX100s is incredible but for me personally I'd need a whole new computer to handle those files. After a lot of sleepless nights I'm going with the X-pro 3 only because the insurance co are forcing one on me after I drown my beloved ETRSi. Fuji would be mad not to give ya that camera. Great advertising for them.
I'm with you, Paul. :-)
@@peterfritzphoto happy to have you on board Pete 📷😂❤️
I liked the second shot. It would be nice to see a recap of the photos at the end.
The only thing Fujifilm could do that would be more appropriate than letting you keep the GFX 100S would be if they just randomly selected a subscriber on this channel who actually made that suggestion to also get one, along with a couple of lenses. Just saying.

yeah i looked that up a while ago before posting it on Flickr ;)
LOL! Good one, John!
Stumbled upon this channel yesterday! Really liking it. I've always enjoyed British humour. Another sub for you. Nearly at the million mark ;)
Fujifilm… just give the man the camera. No doubt the portfolio shots coming from the camera could be featured and preserved for posterity in the upcoming “Chasing Awe… part deux” (tm)

Fujifilm give us all a camera ( tight sods) great vlog Gavin stunning shots and funny as ending 😂😂😂😂
great memories of my late wife and I when we skied this area. Thanks Gavin and Amada
Fuji just give him the camera --- you know it makes sense. When Gavin wins Photographer of the Year, the extra publicity Fuji will get will be unimageable.
Couldn’t agree more!
Fantastic shots and video. Nearly fell me chair with laughter at end lol
Bravo Gavin! Premium content!! Incredibly beautiful images/scenery mixed with a genuine belly laugh at the end! Fuji please gift/sponsor Gavin the kit you provided!
Cracking video as always stunning images as ever, but how are you going to beat that ending. Tears of joy then hit with tears of laughter. So natural.
As an old guy there isn't much that impresses me, but thanks for taking us to a place that I think is the most amazing thing I've seen. I actually shouted. I came across some of those ripples in a piece of rock in AZ and I suspected it had to do with a sand beach. Now it's comfirmed. Lichen subscribe.
Wow, those pictures look amazing. I've got to go there now.
The ending was hilarious
Jaylin skit at the end really capped that one off! She was hilarious. Well done with that and the shots of Lake Agnes and Beehive too!

Fujifilm, don't give Gavin the camera... give me the camera! In all seriousness, another entertaining video Gavin.
Definitely the Best entertaining Photographer on UA-cam. Love your content. Can not wait till the next one. Great photographer as well.
