    Woodland photography can be the most difficult landscapes of all to get good compositions. You showed a masterclass in this video of composition and waiting for the right light.

  • @kyliehalden3179
    @kyliehalden3179 4 роки тому

    To your comment at 12:18, that was us last weekend! Our first visit there, and the last spot on our VI bucket list before leaving this beautiful landscape. I’ll certainly miss it, but as always stunning images of these stoic giants that I hope continue to endure.

  • @bobtommi2430
    @bobtommi2430 4 роки тому

    Two points I'd like to make. 1) The British Columbia tourism folks should be paying you a handsome sum if they're not already. 2) You have too much talent for one person; thank you for trying to spread it around with these gorgeous videos.

    Hi Adam, the way you always introduce your video's with music sets me up every time for an absorbing insight into your approach into the art of landscape photography.

  • @Ktizo_Images
    @Ktizo_Images 4 роки тому

    Adam, I love your stuff. Watching this particular video gave me an idea to make sure I have someone suitably dressed with me to provide perspective to large trees. Then, while watching your B roll walking through these trees, I thought about photographing these in low light conditions/after dark with a model and different forms of lighting. Thanks! You always add value to the photography community!

  • @MaximPodbereznyy
    @MaximPodbereznyy 4 роки тому +19

    Adam, the images are exceptional! I would definitely hang such on my wall. When you were walking among the trees you were looking like a dwarf in the woods :). By the way IMHO you have the best channel about landscape photography. Always very educational and interesting content

    Your videos are such a joy to watch. B roll on point, always the best background music.....and can't forget about the fantastic images from RAW to final edit. Thank you for sharing your thought process....you are a joy to listen to...not everyone has the gift to teach as well as you do . Cheers.

    Hi Adam, first apologize for my English, I am writing from Chile. I have seen almost all your videos, I admire your work a lot, but in this one in particular you have made me see the true concept of the composition. I think you have changed the way I see photography from now on.
    Greetings.

  • @andrewmumford3049
    @andrewmumford3049 4 роки тому

    Adam - that composition demo you did with your vlog camera was the proverbial dogs bollards ! Just to have it explained while watching it on screen without cut's or dissolves is literally the best teaching aid I've seen anyone use. Particularly great for people like me who struggle with composition. Would love to see more particularly with wide angle's / seascapes etc - maybe even use the video from the actual camera itself. Anyway brilliant , thx.

    Beautiful images. I can't get enough of your coastal forest photos. That's probably because I live on the bald-ass prairie. I was just thinking about how much your VLOGs have improved over the years as far as editing and your comfort in front of the camera. Well done sir!

    This video would have to be rated as beyond superb. Your total focus /time and effort spent on the PERFECT composition is an inspiration to all of us. I loved every second of this video & it’s made me put mote effort and Planning into every move I make before/during and after the shot. Perfection plus Effort Adam is going to be my goal from now on. Beautifully explained and presented. Neville J. Western Australia.

It's quite an achievement and you just float through it so effortlessly and stress free. Impressive footage of the journey and the video is just so well put together. I hope you are making good money you are a one man TV production company, great show, thanks

    @pumamycat 4 роки тому

    I'm always amazed at your eye for a picture in the chaos of the locations you visit and how you create an ethereal image that captures the beauty that I couldn't see, that's such a talent and you constantly lift my heart with your work. I keep trying to visit my local woodland area but have yet to be truly inspired although I always enjoy being in nature itself. So seep up the fantastic body of work and I'll look forward to being more inspired by your trips into the natural world and the captures you share with us lucky people.

  • @jamesjohnston6765

    I especially enjoy hearing your thought process while working out a composition. Your photographs truly stand out in an ever growing, vast community of landscape photographers and I tend to believe that is due, in large part, to your seemingly masterful way of sorting out and composing a given scene.

    @hnurminen 4 роки тому

    My jaw always drops on the quality of the shots you get in these places where I would, probably, just walk by. My favourite is the final one (around 20 mins in the video). The forests we have here in southern Finland are very busy photographically (not unlike what you show around 10 mins) so it would be *really* interesting to see what kind of compositions you would get out of our woodlands!

  • @byoregon1
    @byoregon1 4 роки тому

    Kudos for your efforts on this one Adam. Those steep, slippery, roped trails can be brutal, and the thought of going down one only to go back up to get the camera kind of makes my flesh crawl. Thanks for doing it, although you’ve made me feel particularly lazy as I watch this while drinking my coffee this morning. That huge tree is magnificent!

Do you have any recommendations for rarely shot waterfalls in the area. Have to make it back to Qualicum Beach by 4::00 on Sunday, so something close by preferably. Thanks again for your inspirational videos, it was watching this that made me organize this adventure (to me anyway).
