A change of scenery and environment.. and a place I've only ever seen on two wheels. It's a huge effort but when you collect a few little spots for future shoots, when the weathers on your side... that's when you get payback 👌🏻 You could ride a bike for a whole summers day and barely ever see the same woodland here.. and it's very much a part of the ancient Sherwood Forest too (albeit planted and managed now.. that vibe lives here for sure) 😉🌳🧙🏻♂️🙏🏻
Finally got time to sit down and finish watching this - been a busy week with Christmas and my son's first birthday! What a wonderful woodlands, agree that pine forests can create some wonderful images, love what you were able to capture with that lone tree!
Hey congratulations to the little man 🎉 and with Christmas all rolled into one.. I hope you all had a wonderful time mate & I hope you got/get chance to put your feet up too.
Great vlogs, I really like the way you provide some background of the environment you are shooting in and your detailed thought process in regard to composition 👍
Looks like a great location, had a look on Google maps, looks like a substantial area to explore. I', with you too on pine plantations, I find them interesting for repetition of trees or the juxtaposition of another lone species of tree with the backdrop of pines. Look forward to future videos from this location. Down in East Sussex, missing the misty conditions, only had a couple of mornings, but nothing recently and had the whole week off, oh well, that's woodland photography 🙄
Great minds 👌 I only earlier today recorded a Google Maps route for tomorrow with the intention to include it in the next video 👍 Yep, the very thing some folks complain about (similarity, uniformity etc.) can be a Pine woods strength too 👌 ..and there's nothing better for a solid backdrop than a dense Pine forest.. especially through Winter 🌲🌲🌲 I completely understand about the weather.. here it's been dark, wet and cloudy mostly. I try to get out when there's a break but it just adds pressure to find shots.. and that's not how it works is it 😉 Fabulous challenge though & when we get some 'weather' we'll appreciate it all the more 👍
Okay, your camera quality has got me drooling! and the drone footage was so pretty. I love the relaxing music you paired with it 💕 Thank you for the soothing moment! Wishing you a blessed Holiday Season 🥰️ Come by and say hello one of these days, I'd love to show you our latest ️
Hey thanks, that's very kind of you 😊🌳💚 I really appreciate it & will check out your channel for sure. I hope you too have a wonderful holiday season, and a wonderful Winter Solstice tomorrow too 🤗🌳🧙🏻♂️🧡🙏🏻
Better late than never.... lovely to be back at those English forests!✨🙏🏻 to see those amazing mixtures of trees😃🌳🌲 and lovely to see you too! I’ve had much going on and not much photographing lately. Some with my iPhone though... i truly hope your doing ok my friend! Wouldn’t it be nice if the trees could move those branches out of picture for just a second, if we asked them? Sometimes I’m stretching and almost falling when carefully holding some branches out of pic😅 Thanks for your informative and uplifting vlogs🙏🏻✨🙏🏻
sounds like me too.. no time for the trees, but slowly hope to return 🙏 I'm good thanks.. working everything out & finding a new normal, you know. Yes, it sure would be nice if the trees lent a hand.. but adventures arn't adventures without a few scratches & bruises eh 😉 Nice to see you back, hope you are keeping well too x 🙏
@@StevePikePhoto a lot(too much) to deal with, both emotional and practical, I can imagine... I wish you all the best and time for trees✨🌳 I’m ok thanks, but I’m in between normals as well... and going through a bit of a rough patch. But there’s always an end even to the rough patches😌🙏🏻✨ Take care🤗
yes these past weeks have been tough, most of the practical stuff is now dealt with though & very true words my friend.. always light at the end of the tunnel 🙏 Sorry to hear you've had troubles too.. hope things are picking up for you, stay safe my friend 🌳💚🙏
@@StevePikePhoto that’s a relief, that the practical stuff almost dealt with. Then there’s more room for emotions to be processed. And then you can sunbathe in the light in the end of the tunnel✨💚 outdoors amongst the trees! Thanks, I guess it’s the attitude towards the rough patches that matters the most... knowing there’s brighter times to come, and knowing where to find strength 🌳🌲 Take care and stay safe ducky🙏🏻✨
Looks like a great place to explore! Pine forests and that smell ..... Stunning capture image at the end.
