Great video, Mads - can't wait to the following about Tuscany and Val d'Orcia. I have been in this area 2-3 times each year for the last 5 years or so, and in just 2 weeks I relocate to Tuscany for work. So I can't wait to capture Val d'Orcia in all four seasons, but also the less famous areas - Tuscany and Italy in general has so much to offer for Landscape Photographers.
OMG - your pictures and videos are divine. Fantastic Job❤My favourite? The one with the hot air balloon on the top left hand corner with the tree on the bottom right hand corner @ 18:45 - 19:04. I love pictures with two focal points opposite from each other "framing" the landscape in between. I seem to see the whole picture at once. What a stunning composition!
Good heavens what an incredible area to fuel your passion. Outstanding photos and instruction. The shot with the Hot Air Balloon and lone tree is mystical. Enjoy vissiting and photographing such outstanding locations. So looking forward to your next video. Stay safe.
What a fabulous start to your Tuscany series Mads. It's easy to see why you would want to travel here as the surroundings looked stunning and very much looking forward to seeing more from your trip here
Really love your channel. Your favourite photos really are amazing. I'm stuck in a small town in Japan and your channel lets me explore this beautiful world through your eyes on my big TV. Thank you!
Stunning scenery! Italy is most definitely in my top 5 fav places in the world! I’m hoping you have a place left for next years trip here 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻(waiting to hear back) 😁👍🏼
Absolutely beautiful images Mads!! Your artistic skills are wonderful & I love your genuine enthusiasm for landscape photography, it's inspiring indeed!!
Certainly another bucket list location…that Astro photography….S T U N N I N G !…three cypress trees in my garden planted as a constant reminder of this desire to visit and stroll along the roads lined with them myself…but for now I will have to delight in your excellent presentation and keep the dream alive…thank you for your expertise and sharing this…as always stay blessed…
Fantastic video! Mesmerizing landscapes! Mads, I have not seen you so excited about a landscape (maybe an old Yosemite video?) and rightfully so! Looking forward to next videos! THANK YOU!
Absolutely stunning. Visited Tuscany a few years ago and would love to go back. Your enthusiasm and pure reaction to the beautiful scenery is priceless. Thank you for your videos. You have shown us there is so much beauty out there. Looking forward to more !!
congrats, Mads, so wonderful pics!! I went there last summer (after mid july), was lucky to have a cloudy-foggy morning, still when i was on the Gladiator's field :-D
If you've enjoyed tuscany you should really plan a trip to Andalousia, amazing cities, beautiful White villages into the landscape, insane seascapes, lighthouses and the cherry on the top a city into a desert !
@@MadsPeterIversen perfect, i cant wait to see the way you show it 😉 Andalousia is by far the best area and you are 2h away from the Algarve coast in Portugal with mind blowing cliffs ! Next in Spain is the north with basque country + Bardenas desert (the only 100% desert in Europe, its where they filmed the desert scenes for Game of Thrones)
So dreamy and beautiful! Thank you for taking us to Tuscany! And you must be a lucky man- an air balloon pops up just when you are in place. Loved all images! 💚
The most outstanding video with such marvels of photos. Always been a super fan of Mad; I’m convinced that this is the master of his time in landscape photography. I am signing up for the workshop today. Thank you for the moving photos and your teaching!
Ah the beautiful light of Tuscany, the old towns and the lovely countryside; I had the same enthusiasm as you when I was there 10 years ago. Stunning footage (I would have loved to see more of the timelapse of the misty morning) and photos! All your photos are wonderful again, but the night photo with the trail is my favorite. Have fun in photogenic Tuscany and I am looking forward to this series!
Absolutely beautiful Mads how fortunate you are to be there in those conditions.. But you have earned it most definitely dedication will reward you with blessings you so deserve 😊
It’s about time! It’s such a pleasure to see you in action on the hunt for light in Tuscany, my home region, where I was born and grew up, and an area that, as far as possible, I know like the back of my hand. First of all, simply to satisfy my own curiosity, I do have a question for you regarding your night session at the famous cluster of cypresses near San Quirico D’Orcia. Your two compositions are very beautiful, and I particularly like the one that takes advantage of the dirt path as a guiding line. But, 200 meters past this cluster, along the main unpaved path, there is another incredible spot that, for night photography, is equally powerful. At the top of the small hill, you can find a picturesque ring of cypresses that you can use in your composition by placing the core of the Milky way in the middle of it, starting directly from the road. Haven’t you seen this spot, or have you not deemed it attractive? In addition, I totally understand that you had to make the most of the time you had (and thankfully, it would take months to visit and enjoy each and every gem hidden in Val D’Orcia and Crete Senesi). It was reasonable to linger on the most famous locations. But in the area, there are spots much less known and inflated that are, arguably, even more beautiful and characteristic. It would be nice if you allowed me to introduce you to these gems the next time you come. Have a nice day, and keep it up with your incredible work.
Nice, especially the nightscapes. I really love the Crete Senesi. Someday I'll return as a photographer. Although I really did enjoy bicycling the region. Thanks for the vid.
Such stunning images in one of the most beautiful places in the world Mads. I've only spent a brief time in Tuscany so I'm really looking forward to seeing the rest of your videos from here.
Mustard video as always Mads, some beautiful images you’ve captured. Thankyou for your thoughts on lens, gear etc, it’s invaluable to us newbies, very much appreciated. Look forward to the next videos.
Gorgeous location and wonderful photos! With all the photographers around, at first I thought you were running a workshop. 😊 Hopefully you brought your wife for a familiar face in the crowd. Can't wait for the next video!
I was just there in the third wk of May. Fabulous. Beautiful similar shots. Also blessed with beautiful weather at the dolomites. But unfortunately got struck with.the nasty omikron. Free now. Great video and thanks for sharing
I was photographing at all the location you visited three weeks ago and it’s just as good as you say. Even though we have all seen photo by others it’s hard to explain the emotion of taking them yourself in the fantastic early and late light. Unfortunately even though we were in position at 5:00 am every morning we didn’t get any mist due to 32 deg C temperature with no rain every day. However it wasn’t quite as busy as you seem to have found it, which was good.
Very interested to watch your video, made even more so because we are currently on holiday near San Quirico d’Orcia! I agree this is a stunning area for photography!
Seems like a very successful trip to Tuscany going by the images you “captured” Mads. Stunning scenery and light to match, definitely got some keepers. Thanks for sharing again Mads. Stay safe 🇦🇺
Hi Mads.. fantastic images, hope to get there one day,... bit of a hike from Aust though. Were the Belvadere house images taken from the main roadside or did you have to drive closer? I guess I am asking are these places easy to find or would you suggest a tour?
Absolutely beautiful photography Mads. Your timing to get the fog was perfect, making those images look sensational. Thank you for this video. Much appreciate and I enjoy your easy going style of teaching. Cheers, N.
Great video as always. I'm glad to finally see you traveling to foreign countries again. I really like your Denmark videos, but there are so many places to visit abroad that I'm really looking forward to the next episode. Thanks for sharing.
Center Italy is my place and, even though I'm currently living abroad, I took pictures of all those places in the past and I cannot wait to see yours. Thr first video is great
Such a beautiful place! Stunning. And agree that the best gear is what you have with you. But man, definitely think a good telephoto is so important! I ended up caught up chasing wide angle lenses when I first started, but now much prefer the 100-400 for the unique compositions and ability to really focus in on details.
I follow a lot of photographers and your eye for composition is one of the best.
Wow, the tree and the balloon at 18:54, love it!
Tuscany offers many beautiful photographic spots! And it's fantastic! Like the rest of Italy 😉
It does indeed! Actually next week's video isn't from Tuscany but another region ;)
@@MadsPeterIversen Dolomites?😍😍😍
That image with the little road leading to the Cypress Trees is PERFECT.
You look very happy… actually the happiest of all your videos. I admire you.

Such epic light and a beautiful pastoral landscape as well. Thanks.
Absolutely fantastic photos Mads
Stunning photography! Definitely gobsmackingly amazing conditions. Great video as always!
Wonderful images. Looking forward to subsequent posts.
I am moving in sept from Malta to Tuscany... your photos are just stunning and make me even more excited
Good heavens what an incredible area to fuel your passion. Outstanding photos and instruction. The shot with the Hot Air Balloon and lone tree is mystical. Enjoy vissiting and photographing such outstanding locations. So looking forward to your next video. Stay safe.
Thanks a lot, Paul! Yes, that balloon photo turned out SO good! :D
Such a beautiful place!! Can’t wait to go back!!
Thank you for taking me on vacation! What a beautiful place and the photo's you created are stunning! You're always inspirational and a joy to watch.
All the classic locations shot wonderfully!
Beautiful locations and beautiful photos
Great video as always. I went to a lot of the same places from the video a few years ago. Such a beautiful area, and great food and wine 👍
What a fabulous start to your Tuscany series Mads. It's easy to see why you would want to travel here as the surroundings looked stunning and very much looking forward to seeing more from your trip here
Thanks a lot, Jim! Yes, it was such a fantastic week :D
Stunning...so envious, what beautiful locations. Amazing photos, look forward to the rest of the trip!

Fantastic work as always Mads. What light and also fog, all at the same time.
I've been watching your videos for a while and I'm off to Tuscany soon myself so I was so happy to see this and discover there are more to come!
Beautiful stuff Mads, the hot air balloon just topped off a beautiful morning's shooting
Certainly another bucket list location…that Astro photography….S T U N N I N G !…three cypress trees in my garden planted as a constant reminder of this desire to visit and stroll along the roads lined with them myself…but for now I will have to delight in your excellent presentation and keep the dream alive…thank you for your expertise and sharing this…as always stay blessed…
Fantastic video,so calming and relaxing. Thanks for sharing.
I liked the
foto with baloon a lot. Great timing and composition:)

Welcome to Italy! Amazing work by the way 💥
Loved your final crop on your images. What to include and exclude is always a challenge.
Stunning photos and it’s great that you had some beautiful conditions when you visited 😁 magical.
absolutely loved the drone photo of the cypress lined avenue, and that misty landscape was to die for!
Your joy over the beautiful lighting and landscape scenery is infectious. I thoroughly enjoyed this Tuscany video.
Thank you so very much, Linda!
What an incredibly beautiful part of the world. You got some great shots.
Wow just fantastic
congrats, Mads, so wonderful pics!! I went there last summer (after mid july), was lucky to have a cloudy-foggy morning, still when i was on the Gladiator's field :-D
Bellisimo! Mi piacere molto. Grazie Madso.
simply spoilt by choice.... super Video and, as always, great shots
If you've enjoyed tuscany you should really plan a trip to Andalousia, amazing cities, beautiful White villages into the landscape, insane seascapes, lighthouses and the cherry on the top a city into a desert !
Spain is very much on my "to-experience" list :D

Tuscany, the photographers ultimate playground.
Very well documented Mads 🙌
Thank you Mads. I can decide which is more amazing, Tuscany or your photos of it.
Stunning work as always Mads. Great video too, I’m looking forward to the next one.
I adore Tuscany. The wine!.... Bellissimo!!

Ab-so-looootely Glorious, another joyful video, thank you so much 😊
What's to say, but just "stunning" location & shots Mads. Great video as always, looking forward to the next one. Keep up the good work.
Such stunning images in one of the most beautiful places in the world Mads. I've only spent a brief time in Tuscany so I'm really looking forward to seeing the rest of your videos from here.
I think the Milky Way shot that doesn’t include the trail might be one of my favourite photos ever.
Great video, Mads, from a spectacular location. Again, your photos bring out the magic from every scene. Great work! Greetings from Australia! 😀
What a beautiful place. And some great images too 😀
Mustard video as always Mads, some beautiful images you’ve captured. Thankyou for your thoughts on lens, gear etc, it’s invaluable to us newbies, very much appreciated. Look forward to the next videos.

Just 2 words Mads: Astoundingly Beautiful!! Thanks!
Haha thanks! :D
Absolutely stunning! Will you be creating a map for Italy as well?
I was just there in the third wk of May. Fabulous. Beautiful similar shots. Also blessed with beautiful weather at the dolomites. But unfortunately got struck with.the nasty omikron. Free now. Great video and thanks for sharing

Damn. I really loved all your photos. But the one with the lone tree and the hot air balloon literally made me jump! Absolutely amazing composition!!
Thanks a lot, Satvik! Yes, it turned out fantastic :D
Beautiful environments down there and the picture I like the most is the one with the balloon it is awesome
Thank you very much, Alf! :)
Very interested to watch your video, made even more so because we are currently on holiday near San Quirico d’Orcia! I agree this is a stunning area for photography!
Nice, having fun outside Iceland and Faroër ? Thanks for sharing this positivity.
Great video :) I have been once in the summer and visited some of the same places! Amazing place!
Wow and to get those conditions, I could feel the excitement. I'd be the same lol. Looking forward to more from Tuscany.
Much more is coming 😊
Seems like a very successful trip to Tuscany going by the images you “captured” Mads.
Stunning scenery and light to match, definitely got some keepers.
Thanks for sharing again Mads.
Stay safe 🇦🇺
Really enjoyed that, thanks.
Hi Mads.. fantastic images, hope to get there one day,... bit of a hike from Aust though. Were the Belvadere house images taken from the main roadside or did you have to drive closer? I guess I am asking are these places easy to find or would you suggest a tour?
Thanks a lot. It's easy to find. Just park at the drive-in next to the road and there are a few different lookouts. One from among the olive trees :)
Beautiful images Mads. I would have loved to see your process for the astro photos. Those were my favorites.
Absolutely beautiful photography Mads. Your timing to get the fog was perfect, making those images look sensational. Thank you for this video. Much appreciate and I enjoy your easy going style of teaching. Cheers, N.
Awesome Mads
Always so impressed and enjoy seeing you work. I swear, you must have some ability to control weather and get beautiful skies! ;)
Mads you are the best…absolutely motivating, and do you know what? I grap my gear and go for „landscaping“
Got to go there one day !
Beautiful Mads! I so wanted to do this workshop. I hope you do another Tuscany workshop in the future!
Beautiful 😍
Now I have drool all over my fresh shirt...!! Excellent. Thank you Mads
Haha! Sorry about that 😅 Very happy you enjoyed the video, Jason!
Great video as always. I'm glad to finally see you traveling to foreign countries again. I really like your Denmark videos, but there are so many places to visit abroad that I'm really looking forward to the next episode. Thanks for sharing.
amazing photos and amazing places. Congratulations!!! When di you go?
San Quirico “Cipressi” 👍🏻 Been there a few times. Stayed near Pienza.
-Enjoyed your Dolomites videos!
You are in San Quirico! Nice
Center Italy is my place and, even though I'm currently living abroad, I took pictures of all those places in the past and I cannot wait to see yours. Thr first video is great
