  • Apologies all.
    There is a period of silence from about 6 minutes in due to copyright claim on the track I used. This is odd as all of the music on my vlogs is either my own or licensed via Audiio. Despite sending proof of my license for the track UA-cam upheld the claim, so to avoid any future issues with it I’ve muted it and will now avoid this particular musician, Jake Kramer.
    It was not a strike, but I wouldn’t trust this industry with a half eaten scone, let alone my content. So… I chose the thermonuclear option.
    And now, on to the description…
    A single day of snow appeared on the apps, so I dropped everything and risked the notorious Peak District roads to get out and into it.
    There was a limited distance I could travel without most likely risking the need for helicopter rescue so I went to one of my smallest, but most lovely bits of woodland.
    ROBIN UPDATE
    The Robin was eating crisps I had thrown out for them, which is probably why he was ignoring my choccy. Smart bird. Chocolate I have now discovered is not good for birds. Or middle-aged men.

    I was planning to get out to Chrome Hill, and was up and ready to go at 6am, however bottled out when I saw how much snow was on my little 1.2 corsa. The A53 between Leek and Buxton was still open, but I didn't have the nerve to try and navigate it in that weather. I ended up just rolling round in the snow at the cemetery over the road, photographing robins and squirrels (but no chocolate).

      I did take a cheeky look at the roads past where I shot, and while the main roads were serviceable, looking at the side roads it started to look really shaky. I think you made the right decision.

    Some lovely images Eddie. Something magical about a snowy day. The woodland is definitely the place to be for its tranquility (and a date with a robin! 😅)

    Just watched your video Eddie. Thanks again for mentioning my channel😃 I love your award winning photo, it’s amazing. I’ll be out filming in the snow soon enough, we haven’t had any yet except for up in the mountains. I liked the top down shots with the drone 👍 Also enjoyed the little robin having the treats. You made a new friend😊 Have a wonderful day and thank you again!

      Cheers Spike. So I looked it up when I got home and chocolate IS NOT good for birds. Fortunately the bird was actually picking up the crisps I had dropped there, that's probably why he was ignoring the chocolate. Smart bird. I then did a deep dive on animals and this kind of thing and sure enough, DON'T give them chocolate.

    Another great video Eddie, I really like your style of presentation and it mirrors the life of a landscape photographer in such a realistic way. The highs and lows along with some superb shots in-between.

    Love your style of vlogs Eddie, informative with a bit of comedy on the way. Always know I have something to watch at night when a notification pops up on my phone, loved that autumn shot how different things look as the seasons go by. Masters Degree? clever bugger👍👍

      Rest assured I’ll be out and about soon.

    Freezing your brass monkeys for the sake of UA-cam (and some good images) 👍
    I dont mind a few reviews pertinent to photography but please don't start reviewing bikes (electric or otherwise), sunglasses and the like. That would be an instant unsubscribe.
    Btw i was impressed at your dedication to blending in with the surroundings by camouflaging your hair 😊

      Ha! My hair is really good camouflage in this environment. With reviews I would only want to talk about things I'm actively using or perhaps have used and am now moving on to something newer/better. I'm very happy to shill for our corporate overlords, but not at the expense of your interest.
