This is the kind of conditions I dream of if I ever get to go back to Death Valley! Beautiful collection of photos :D
Really amazing photos and a beautiful place to live fairly close too. This was a great blog. I love that you show us heaps of photos and not just 1 or 2. Thanks for sharing.
Great video!! wonderful place
Mate this looks so so epic! Stunning video. I have only been to Death Valley once and only for one day. Can't wait to return!
Man those conditions looked insane !! Every image was a banger too !! The more Mina most shot at 14 min was my preferred !! Stunning work as always buddy
Woww beautiful bro, amazing shot.....
THE photos are so good, you are great photographer
The one without sky❤
That last image of the 3 people on the dunes is one of my all time favourite images. Amazing work
Beautiful work, thanks for posting 👍
minimalistic. The one with 3 dudes is the best.
Killer work, bud! Love the images at 13:30. Both are wonderful, but I prefer the one with the sky. I like the balance, and the gradient of lighter and lighter tones. This video inspires me to revisit my own folder of images from that amazing afternoon, and it's inspired me to maybe do a little bit more vlogging as well. Really been enjoying these videos.
That was a ton of fun man, loved being out there with you! Thanks so much!
Please do Josh - I miss your mazing content. And thanks Michael for a great video. :)
What A Great place and Great photografie thanks for sharing and thanks for the Great tip
Of the Gaia app, greatings 👍🏼
As for the cropping, I really like the simpler shots most of the time, but if it’s a story you want to tell, the additional elements (horizon, background, people, etc.) definitely help. Love your work, Michael. 👍🦘🇦🇺
Beautiful quality images! I was there in 2015 and it was an Amazing and mind blowing place! I used one of your images for an example of color grading in a video on my channel ! You are a really great photographer
Love the beautiful minimalistic second shot.... But to be honest even single shot just leaves me speechless.
This was just amazing to watch guys and I loved the images you captured Michael. Wonderful light and conditions and you sure made the best of them.
Wow, every time you shoot dunes or fog I know it's going to be magical and this effort was just off the charts awesome! I loved all the images but the horizontal shot including the 3 photographers with the windblown sand at the bottom of the frame was my absolute favorite.
great mood, video work, narration, and of course the images. Great!
Just a great job all around Michael. The images were fantastic and your story telling with the video was exceptional. Keep up the good work.
Beautiful !
I love how relaxing your vids are even what I think would be a very complex subject to photograph. You have certainly inspired me to look at compositions in a very different way with long lenses to create a minimalistic image which I love.
Simply stunning work Michael, a superb collection of images, of the two compositions you picked out I prefer the second would look great on any wall.Thanks as always for sharing.
This is a great companion video to the recent video by nigel danson about diagonal lines!
Those photos are mesmerizing! I swear that I can see the sand moving even though they are still images. Amazing and inspiring.
Awesome stuff Michael, there is never any fast forwarding thru your videos. Love all the images you show.
Simply amazing series of images you showed us! Nicer than Nice.
Beautiful images and an amazing scene!! lovely work again!
Wonderful video. You always inspire us to go out and explore.
This is so incredible, Michael!! I never had a huge desire to go to the dunes, but now I have to go!!
I always enjoy your Dune Photography trips. This was hands down the best set of Dune pics I've seen. Trekking in sands is always fun, thanks for your perspective!
thank you so much!
Great video and images too. When a look of someone of this i feel be in a other world. Very impressive Michael.
I've been trying to decide where to go for this year's first semi-annual landscape photography road trip. I think this vlog has made the decision much easier. DVNP, here I come! Spectacular shots, as usual. I think my favorite is the second one with the three photographers on the ridge at 14:15. Great story there!
My mind exploded with your photos, so many possibilities, compositions, and how good this 100-400 lens is, thanks
I like the the three layers of brightness in thr first one. Very nice shot!
Love your video! Your beautiful photos and background music, its like i was meditating for 20min.
Man watching this video makes me wanna cry it’s so good. I’m a wedding photographer who does landscapes on the side for personal pleasure. This video singlehandedly convinced me to finally pull the trigger on a super telephoto for landscapes
Wow just amazing to watch buddy! Beautiful moments. I think I prefer the wider shot in this instant
Hi Michael
Great video and photos as always. Truly inspiring stuff and you are such an inspiration
It would be fun to see a video abort how you clean your gear after such a trip😊
Well done, bravi guys
I love the one without the sky the most!!👍
Totally Awesome Video Michael....! Looking forward to one day getting there and trying out the photography tips you mention and experience the beauty of Death Valley with a camera in hand.
Fantastic photos Michael! Hard to pick a favorite... As from the 2 ones you refer to, I prefer the one without the sky.
You really struck "gold" and "gold dust" on these Michael! I think I like the more minimal one without the sky as, sticking with my theme, it seems a little "richer" in color if that makes sense. But truly, I like so many of these including the ones with the photographers that gives scale and a story. Oh, and I was expecting Josh to blow the sand off the chip he dropped and picked up. I might have!! Lovely video.
wow looks so nice but so windy! love the panorama. From the two shots, I too like them for different reasons, but I think I like the minimalist one more as you completely focus on the backlit ridge of the dune(s) in the front, great video!
Epic video! Love the scenery😍 buuut…. someone should do a count of the word ”Dune” 😆
What a life! You are living your dream. I have learned you have two lives. The one we learn with and the one we live with. May the best of your life be the worse of your future. Be safe.
This is genuine bucket list photography, and you did such a great job conveying the feeling of being there. Damn, my nearest real dunes are exactly 1,993 km away! I smell a road trip…
Mindblowing stuff, congratulations on those wonderful captures. My two cents on the image with the horizon vs without the horizon: while I love the abstract nature of the more cropped composition, I love how the more pulled-back image conveys an entire world that exists beyond the frame. Almost an uncharted planet kind of feeling. And I also adore your vertical shot with the three figures in the distance. The way the light wraps around them and slightly blows out the details of the shape helps to abstract them slightly, allowing for more of an interpretation of their motivations. Love it man, keep up the amazing work.
Awesome
Michael, how about a video on how you upload your videos to UA-cam in such a way that they maintain such beautiful resolution.
Lovely photographs and your video is inspiring. Thanks.
what a great place, beautiful photos, from the picts you ask to choose I like the 2nd one better, you have a feel for the dunes better....
Incredible photos mate
From the moment you posted the first image of the 3 people, I had determined to post a comment saying it was my favorite. But then you showed us the 2nd image of the 3 people which was an absolute BANGER and by far my fave of the lot.
I also find it interesting that you mention rarely shooting in vertical orientation at the dunes. I shoot vertical quite a lot and I find that it's outstanding in situations where there's a lot of depth and layering. Like at the dunes for example.
I wish i had a desert in my country. Every image looks so gooood!
I just picked up a new telephoto lens 150-500mm coz of you and how inspiring your videos are
Liked the last image (without sky) even more than the previous one.
Enjoyed your Death Valley video, I live about 4-5 hours north of DV and have been there 3 times from 18-20 years ago.
Planning to go there next week for a day in a half with the dunes being on top of the list.
Never been in the dunes so it should be fun, Love your videos they are definitely inspiring for amateur photographers and videographers
Minimalistic removing dune tops was fav.
Brutally good photos Michael, really enjoyed your video! How did you manage to have gear clean after all this sand, do you have some tips during the shoot or before/after?
Definitely like the minimalist shot more! It allows for more imagination when viewing it which I find quite interesting:)
I think that last photo was the best of all of them.
I personally would be tempted to convert to B&W for some of those shots. Great video
They are all stunning images Michael, but how much sand & grit does your gear collect??
Hi Michael love you work I just watched a vid from [S5E14] Lifestyle Overland it reminded me of you as soon as I watched it it looks like an amazing place to photograph your welcome
I prefer the 2nd image with no sky Michael. Great shots btw.
Loved the video! I'm heading to Death Valley in 2 weeks and would really appreciate tips for shooting in the location to protect the camera, timing, locations, etc. Not sure if that is it's own video, an IG post, or whatever but I'd appreciate it!
Absolutely outstanding dune photography Michael it makes me want to fly out to visit them, your work is an inspiration
Thanks so much Stephen!
Great video as always ! Just one question, are you happy with the Sigma 100-400 ? Thanks !
This is what I really like. No bs just pure amazing image taking.
That was a great day buddy! So fun, so productive. It was fun to see how you assembled snippets of our experience to make something inspiring! Meanwhile, I haven't even processed those images yet... I just imagine you there on your 8th cup of coffee editing this, haha.
great video and great pictures. I will highly recommend you to check out white sands national park if you haven't already been there. Could you make a video of cleaning camera and camera bag after this trip? I am always scared of using my camera in dunes even more than using it in a light rain and would like know how did you manage to clean your equipment after this trip. Thanks
spectacular, as always! where are these dunes?
Wow..
Great video - I preferred the second more minimal of the two images
Superb series. I prefer the zoomed in shot just a wee bit more. The whole vlog made me remember our brains really are wired to see human shapes, I was seeing them all the time.
Awesome video as always!
Of the two dune shots at 13:00, I like them both but I'm more drawn to the one with the sky cropped out. The image with the sky works as a traditional landscape. But without the sky, you get an abstraction that's all about luminosity and line, rather than a depiction of a specific place or object. I guess it's the painter in me that is drawn to minimalist abstractions. I presume those are the disparate aspects of the composition that you spoke of?
Awesome photos. I'd be interested to see what a wide angle shot would look like with the camera low down to get close up view of the patterns in the sand. Maybe that would just make the dunes look too far away and take away their grandeur.
Spectacular... so beautiful to see these images Michael... Thank you!
Beautiful light! At 13:30 I prefer the second (minimalistic image). Any problems with the sand working into your gear?
Great pictures!! Do any of these shots end up as black and whites??
I'd love to go there. Dunes are really inspiring. In France we have the Pila dune (the biggest dune in Europe) and I'm so glad to live less than an hour from there !
How do you get rid of the sand in the focusing/focal ring ahah ? My 70-200's rings are crunchy now and I'm so scared to get back out there with my new gear
I noticed you guys eschewed lens hoods, I presume because they would catch the wind and introduce camera shake. Do you worry about wind-blown sand scratching the front element?
Wondering how your gear held up to all that blowing sand?
Enjoyed the program.
How much sand do you have to clean up after the the photo op?
Thx
Dreamscapes
All that blowing sand is giving my camera gear anxiety, haha:P.
DUNES DUUDE! :ppp
Honestly your Vlogs about these Landscape Photography of Dunes are the best i have ever seen ! So Good. Keep going man 👍🏽
now this is why your photography inspires me amazing shots great video no matter if its sand or water or abstract realy enjoy your work tnx for sharing
Your videos are always so beautiful and inspiring! Nice work again!
Where was the location? , great video as usual
The word dune has now lost all meaning, so thanks for that lol. All kidding aside, this was an incredible video. Amazing work.
This is an awesome vlog, those dunes look amazing in the wind. You certainly took some cool shots, and as for which one do I prefer well for me its the one with no sky it just stunning.
such great shots, stunning! I also find it so fun to wait for lightroom to stitch a panorama, it almost feels like waiting for a polaroid/instax photo to properly expose after taking a shot.
It’s so hard to say anything, a genuine loss of words. Your best dune outing of them all! Incredible, shot after shot. I can’t pick a fav even with the choice between the minimal and the one with sky, both are wonderful! Also to be with those guys! Special days.
Wow!! Nature is incredible, and so are these images. Magical.
Beautiful images Michael. Realy enjoyed the vlog. Thnx
Hi mate! Great photos! Where is this location?
