  • @PathinAZ
    @PathinAZ 2 роки тому

    It's said that every photo needs a subject. But when the whole scene is the subject, as in your chaotic waterfall photo, the confusion makes you start to ponder/think/imagine. You know what you're basically looking at, but you start to imagine what it's like to be there. Sometimes, if done right (as yours definitely does), it generates a more powerful feeling in the viewer, as no 2 people will walk away feeling the exact same thing.
    That's my take on it anyway.
    Thanks for sharing, amazing pics.

  • @karyleianawildernesscapes

    12:26 Yes! That's pretty much what I saw at first viewing. To the left, there seems to be some dark figure of a woman in a wispy white dress & then to the right is the mythical monster/beast, just its head & I guess hand reaching out towards the figure.
    Unless there's a rainbow created by the waterfall spray (as shown earlier), I rarely do telephoto shots on a waterfall...this vlog has convinced me that I need to start! 🤯🤙🏾

    The rainbow patterns on the falling water were magical, and are yet another example of the variety of great images you create with the 100-400 mm lens. Your work never ceases to amaze and inspire. With every video I think it must be impossible to top, and then you top it with the next video! The consistently high quality of your stills, your video, time lapses, and drone images is just unparalleled. Amazing, amazing work!

Do love the last shots on that crappy day - yes, big fan of the close-up of the dark and mythic falls. But I have to hand it to you for all the aerial shots w/ the drone, again - AHHHH ICELAND!!!!

  • @karenwalter5784
    @karenwalter5784 2 роки тому

    I love all the close up shots and the waterfall with the bird and rainbow is beautiful! My favorite though is the one you picked. I see a woman in the upper left corner and a mythical bird or beast that looks like it’s reaching out to her or giving her something. Your imagination could run wild. Amazing images though, all of them.
