    Definitely not boring and your positive, upbeat attitude is always a pleasure to hear!

    These videos definitely are not boring! I enjoy watching them! I actually really liked the first image, of the little hut. And I love how you found us some history about the castle, that was very nice as well!

    It's always fun to go on a walk with you Henry, you've often got an interesting piece of information to share.

    Henry, there are too many epic vistas on YT and social media and after a while they become boring. I enjoy your little walks the best, as you show the rustic essence of the landscape, the secrets found amongst and around the creeks, lakes, trees and shrubbery, and the fences and lovely stiles found and clambered over - not to mention the inevitable sheep and cattle. I’d be out there too in a landscape like that, especially in conditions as you have here, yet can’t get out in the heat we’ve been having here in Oz, except in early morning. Great video - as expected😊

    I really enjoy your ordinary non epic walks. It is where most people actually spend most of their time. Watching you make choices as to what to photograph and what maybe in different conditions you might try at a different time, causes me to think about what I focus on my walks. I love macro photography but seeing your compositions causes me to think outside my box. Thank you.

    No Henry, I never find your walks boring no matter where you are.
    I can't manage too many hikes these days so I look forward to your videos, and I get very excited when you take out the Olympus as all my cameras are OMDs.
    BTW, why has everyone got snow except here in south Wales, all we got was a severe weather warning, and a bit of drizzle! 🙂

    Swallows do the same her in Tasmania. They swoop around our feet and it seems they are going for the flying insects we scare up.
    I've enjoyed all you smaller walks like this one. It just takes practice to get your eye in because you may still be thinking in terms of the big landscapes when this requires an intimate scenes eye. two separate photography skills, and both worth practicing.
    it would be interesting to take that walk with someone who doesn't do big landscapes to see what they see.

    Not boring Henry, it's nice to just feel like I'm taking a walk with you. These kinds of videos I really enjoy. To hear your thoughts, see what you are seeing, it's what other photographers don't have on their channels. every video doesn't have to have epic photographs and flawless imagery. You present the reality of the journey which is really enjoyable. I appreciate the content. Thank you.

    I had a canon r7 for a year. It was an amazing camera, but I just didnt gel with it, and ended up carrying it more than i used it. I have now bought an om-5 after watching your videos, and am having so much fun again carrying it everywhere i go, and taking far more pictures just because it's so small, unobtrusive and intuitive to use... Helped me find a love for photography again where I enjoy walking and take photos, rather than constantly just going out hunting that 1 perfect shot.
    And let's face it, nature is great to enjoy whether we get a shot or not.
    Also, as the quote says.. "Comparison is the thief of joy"

    Your epic walks take me to places I can't get to - your "not epic" walks help inspire me for what I might come across here where there are no epic vistas.

    for me it's nice to see you struggling and finding images in the ORDINARY settings which are the only kind of settings that most of us have access to

    As there is very little colour those images would make excellent black and white photos! Nice video!!!

    Nice area visited today :) I get the 'boring' thought, but sometimes feel like you're missing some nice opportunities for photographs Henry - maybe its just my wandering eye 🤪 eg. heading towards the barn with sheep; the shot up the hill with sheep infront of it. I was shouting at the screen; "oh nice, take the shot... nooo take it!" haha :)
    Also saw a lovely looking tree set alone in a field with some rockery around it ( look central at 8:06 ) whilst you're looking at the camera chatting away haha. Not a critique of your photography of course, big fan of your channel Henry.
    Keep the content coming, from one aspiring youtuber to another that's done such a great job over the years.

    It would look great under a few inches of fresh snow.

    Snow, the one thing I really miss about living in the South East - it comes once in a blue moon - or every decade or so - and doesnt linger very long either - so I get so few images of it.
    Lovely walk Henry, you are lucky.

    Ohhh, so autumnish weather... Greetings from eastern Finland! Very much snowing again today. Keeping myself inside - and at least me and my OM-5 enjoying watching your photo walks. Keep on going, not boring at all, gives me inspiration.

    Any day to be out with the camera is a good day in my book Henry. If nothing else there’s the benefit of fresh air and exercise even if the images are in short supply.

    Hi Henry, you were talking about how different elements would transform this image. Do you ever wake up and look at the weather, and think, I'm going to such a place today, based on the conditions? 9:31

    I find this wet, dreary, slushy weather depressing. The only thing that gets me going is my dog. They always seem to find something interesting to investigate and they are just happy to be out and about. I rarely come back with amazing shots on such outings but I do bring the camera along, just in case.

    Have you been inside Wray Castle? Designed around family groups, but interesting. Also good to visit by boat if you get the chance. A bit like taking the Keswick Launch over to Catbells which co-incidentally was my first visit to The Lake District, back in 1975

    • @HenryTurnerphoto

    I kept saying “ohh Henry look at that gorgeous bit of stacked wall with snow (or with moss) so perfect for an intimate photo.” You didn’t hear me though. To me that is such an exotic subject, and you just kept walking on by. 🥱
