  • In episode 2 from a Rainforest in Scotland I photograph a magical oak tree that's festooned in bryophytes, and explore hidden valleys which ooze potential. A wonderful morning of woodland photography and pure enjoyment of nature.

    I like how you "sponsor" your own videos. I'd buy your book in a heartbeat ... if I wouldn't own a copy already ;)

    Hi Simon, Thank you for sharing - I've just ordered your book "Gathering Time" - I think I need another trip to Scotland and not just the Cities!

    In this second instalment I love the way you have approached less than perfect conditions and light to craft the images.

    High Simon. What a lovely adventure wonderful woodland, nature at its lichen laden best. Makes me ache to be in Scotland. Great to hear the phrase SNAFFU, something often said by old sparks like myself . All the best to you and Meg.

    Simon, couldn't help but notice the type of ball Meg was playing with, my dog also plays with this type of rubber ball. My vet has noticed that his teeth are noticeabley worn down from chewing it, please be careful. Oh and by the great photography. Regards Neil.

    'Snafu' were a great band from the 70's, try the track 'Back in the USA' - You are still THE BEST for Woodland Photography!

    Simon, excellent video . The images are spectacular. I was going to ask what the brown mounds were and then you answered. Thanks again for taking us along. Beautiful work my friend.

    Your love of woodlands always comes through in your work Simon, but also in your videos and the way you articulate your thoughts out loud. Coincidentally I just picked up a copy of Outdoor Photography today, for the first time in at least year, and to my delight you're featured in there. My mother-in-law had a quick skim through the magazine and went straight to your image with the rowan in the foreground and its red berries - as her favourite image.

      Many thanks as always :-D I'm glad you enjoyed the article too! My images weren't printed very well in OP, but it was great putting the article together :-)

    Yet another inspirational video Simon, I have a copy of your book Gathering Time which I keep going back to time and time again and I would love to see another one in the future

    So glad I’ve got a copy of your book ‘Gathering Time’. Really enjoyed both videos in this series, I’ve always wanted to photograph rainforests.

    Hi Simon, thanks for another great video. I am following you for years now due to the fact that I also love to be in the woods. Sadly my local forests are not as spectacular as the ones you have got on hand. BUT - the main reason to watch is the four legged black "monster" called Meg :-)). Keep on. Best wishes for both of you from Germany, Hans

    Lovely video Simon, what a stunning little woodland. Nice to see you in your element and in form

  • @philipgraham3350

    Another inspiring video, and a beautiful location. Thinking of those moss-covered trees, I would love to see what you could conjure up in my current local woodland, the infamous Aokigahara Jukai (Sea of Trees) in Japan. Someday maybe…!

    Hi Simon. I've been looking forward to this episode and it doesn't disappoint ! I imagine you're already planning your return visit to this wonderful location. There's something very special about May's greens particularly when you have great light. Great advice about not going flat out on photography breaks. I'll bear that in mind on future ! Many thanks for sharing another excellent vlog Simon.

    • @SimonBaxterPhotography
      @SimonBaxterPhotography  ปีที่แล้ว

      Many thanks for your kind comment Tim! I think greens in June can also be nice but the months seem to be flying by these days :-o

    Inspirational as always Simon, these rainforests look a lot like Tasmania or the South Island of N.Z .

    Beautiful video of the Atlantic rain forests again Simon. All the lush mosses create a beautiful atmosphere you captured in your own calming style 👏🏻

  • @oneandonlyjaybee

    I have a rare few days to get away for photography up in the Scottish Highlands in october and youve inspired me to go to at least one rainforest. Did you cover a large area or ever need to navigate with map and compass etc?

  • @robertbrown5052
    @robertbrown5052 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Total Jawdroppingincredulization! (Yea that’s a word in Oregon!). Makes the pine and fir forests here look a tad bit bland! Must say that if it was me pulling that branch out of the way, I would have done a double quirk twist head over teakettle into the creek! Thanks for sharing such a magical place!

    • @SimonBaxterPhotography
      @SimonBaxterPhotography  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hehehe! Thank you very much, Robert! Much appreciated :)

    • @TAdams-hx9lk
      @TAdams-hx9lk ปีที่แล้ว

      ..Robert Brown...Odd..I was just thinking how similar the Oregon rainforests are to Simon's trees in this video. Lots of Old man's beard, moss and bracken in twisted old trees. Beautiful work Simon!

    Why did you leave your bag, on the tripod, to dance in the breeze? Not worried about introducing camera shake and slightly blurry photos?

    • @SimonBaxterPhotography
      @SimonBaxterPhotography  ปีที่แล้ว

      It's just a small cover for the tripod head. There's no weight to it and absolutely no affect on such a big sturdy tripod :-)

    • @fredwestinghouse2945

      Ok, cool.
