Hi Adam. I'll probably never get the chance to visit Greenland, so many thanks for sharing this wonderful place with us. I think I prefer the higher contrast image but they're both beautiful. Thanks again Adam.
Beautiful videos and photos Adam. The opening sequence, with the drone flying by your group is just spectacular. As for your question, I prefer the more contrasty image because of the warmer tones, particularly the rich green and yellow hues on the grass in the middle ground. I also like the purple flowers and the red patch on the rock in the low right corner, that seem to disappear in the less contrasty image. Both are beautiful, the composition is superb with converging lines in the foreground leading to the bright sun. Great images and interesting vlog, i would never have imagined Greenland so spectacularly beautiful.
Love the way wooden houses weather along any saltwater coast -- gives them such rich textures in their paint, wood, and roofing, and definitely makes me think of the Maritimes as well. As for the last shot, I sorta prefer the harsher contrast when viewed digitally, though I'd probably prefer the softer water printed out.
Great choice of location Adam, not the usual places we've become so a custom to on these channels......VERY refreshing. You've proven this year that between China, and Greenland that the longer it takes to get to a neat place the more unique your photos are likely to be especially because you know you're craft.
Adam, if you had said you were in Newfoundland, I would have believed it! I live here, and can tell you the landscape is indistiguishable. We have fjords too, :) lol. If you ever decide to come to Newfoundland, which I advise you to do ;-p, and you want to see massive Ice Bergs or be "lucky" enough to see a Polar Bear, come between March to May. The Polar Bears may (usually will) be floating in with sea ice and Ice Bergs are in "peak season". .the bergs can linger around in to June if it's a "good'' year, lol. For me, the contrasty one catches my attention more. Cheers,
Thought I was catching a trailer for a new adventure blockbuster, Wow what an opener. Of the two images the high contrast works for me when seen side by side, would be happy with either! I can see some epic b-roll and images coming our way soon. Cheers Adam.
Great video Adam, what a place! Your opening scenes and footage shot with the drone just confirm to me that drones are a positive thing when used in such away, the grandeur and scale of the landscape was clearly obvious when seen from the air, fantastic. I prefer your image with the slightly reduce contrast. Looking forward to seeing more from Greenland. cheers.
Great video, great footage, excited for more!! (Oh and yeah, definitely the higher contrast picture! Just feels more like actually standing there when looking at it).
The higher contrast image is preferable, of course, as it is shot toward the super-bright light of the sun, no smooth image can be expected, but a big contrast, plus it has warmest tones.
As ever, a great video Adam. My preference is the first more contrasty image. I love the way you have captured the splashes contra jour in that image. Also prefer the areas in the first image where you have dodged the sunlight on the ground
Love those 'prams' at the 7:40 mark... old style with great spring suspension... looks like the perfect solution for a smooth ride in the rocky terrain... far superior to some of the modern day kid carriers... In regards which image do I prefer... I like the effect created on the first one, because you have soft silky water for the most part... but one image file froze the spray in sharp detail... mid/left side... I like that anomaly... Cheers and thank you...
Thanks Adam... I'm (4) days late watching this, heavens to mergatroid! I'm drawn to contrasty pictures as I agree with the others on that score. I had no idea just how beautiful Greenland is... Bill on the Hill... :~)
For those of you that might like to join me in Greenland in 2020 details about the trip can be found here www.terra.photography/tasermiut-gibbs-2020 Enjoyed the video? please be sure to give me a thumbs up, cheers!
I also feel like the higher contrast image is more realistic- the foreground is a mix of patches that get hit by the sun and those that are in shadow behind Rocks, hence contrast is fine.
Adam your drone work is always incredible. the intros to your videos are some of my absolute favorites amongst the landscape photography community! As for the 2 images, I prefer the second slightly softer edit. It has (to me) a much calmer and more inviting feel to it. Stunning shot
Awesome video Adam. I like the one with the high contrast, like the long shadows from the rocks, and the movement in the water best. Looking forward to seeing more from Greenland, and your funny pronouncing of local place names :D Ove/Denmark
I have a penchant for shooting into the sun so thanks for the "finger technique". I'm not sure why I hadn't run across this before but will certainly be giving it a try in future.
What a place, beautiful drone footage and images. I like the first one with the warmer color on the water, but both are great. Interesting town, I didn't see any cars I suppose there is no place to drive to.
Looks an amazing place Adam. I prefer the image with more contrast as it looks more like it should with the sun shining on the water. That said, both are excellent examples of how you can use parts of several images to produce something close to what you saw with the naked eye. Looking forward to more from Geenland.
Terror expeditions would probably be a different kettle of fish. As ever I am in awe of the places you visit and the images that you create. Hopefully one day I can develop my own channel to a point that I can visit places like these. Thanks.
I think I'm in the minority. I prefer the softer image because to me it looks more natural. Looking forward to the next video as the scenery looks absolutely spectacular. Thanks for a great video Adam.
There's something that has occurred to me watching several of your videos... You show us, and teach us your thoughts regarding composition, lighting, exposure techniques, etc... and you do it in a presentation of extremely high quality visually, and musically. I don't take for granted the skills you must have creating and editing your videos. I'd love to see and learn some of the tools and techniques you use to accomplish that, starting with the software you use. Hopefully this sounds like a good idea to you, and hopefully your audience would respond positively as well. Jon
Ingredients are years of Practice in making such videos and 25 (?) Years of Professional photography. It is much more important what you film and say than with what you edit it. I guess adam uses adobe Premier pro, but you could use the free or cheaper hit film, imovie or da vinci resolve to not too unsimilar effect. Not Sure, how,much adam scripts his videos. Not much, i guess- apart from the comedy with gavin.
I absolutely enjoyed this video, from the stunning opening footage to the shots of the colorful village structures to that last fabulous image. I believe I prefer the higher contrast photo.
Hi Adam, This is a fabulous video and thank you for taking the time to putting it together. The scenery is stunning, what a place. I prefer your more contrasting image as is has a more in the moment feel while the softer image is more painterly. Thanks again for posting and keep on snapping!
Once again great video lovely scenery of a place few seem to go to. Also you lovely Partner is so much better that the foul smelling Gavin for sure. Thanks for sharing and best to you and Miss Karen.
When I grow down, I want to be a photographer just like you! When the sunset photo first appeared, my reaction was to say out loud “Oh my!!!” Brilliant work, Adam. 🙏
That looks a really hardcore wild camping workshop, thanks for sharing. Looking forward to seeing more of this exceptional landscape. The softer water image for me, thanks!
That intro was sublime and Greenland looks like a photographers paradise. Looking forward to more from your trip and my vote goes to the higher contrast version. Cheers Adam!
Without wanting to be cynical, I prefer the more contrasting image, since the direct sunlight is more inclined to form a hard contrast. Not too soft. Very well done is the splash in the middle of the otherwise very spongy water. A pleasure to see more from your trip to Greenland.
Contrast shot for me Adam. Amazing place looking forward to more vlogs from this spot, I'd be interested how the chap from NZ got there being in the antipodes myself!
Great video, and what a place! I prefer the second image. The first one, I agree, is a bit too crunchy with relatively little shadow detail. The 18 stops of dynamic range of the human visual system would have seen more of this detail so good work-around!

Classic Adam Gibbs intro. The video, music and sound bites 😗👌
Lovely! I like the one with the finger going down. #2 is stunning!
Stunning opening sequence!
Always love your drone footage. But that early clip coming down the mountain and all of a sudden having the people there was really stunning!
The one with the higher contrast.
I find the dynamic of the water shows the wilderness of the landscape better. Great image, Adam. 👌

The high contrast image is my favourite. The light is very beautiful.
What an amazingly jaw dropping view.
Whoa! Just there B-roll alone is epic!
I like the one with the higher contrast. Looks like a fantastic location
High contrast for me, has more life in it.
Looks a lovely place.
Thanks for another great video
Fantastic location and I like the higher contrast
Love the way wooden houses weather along any saltwater coast -- gives them such rich textures in their paint, wood, and roofing, and definitely makes me think of the Maritimes as well. As for the last shot, I sorta prefer the harsher contrast when viewed digitally, though I'd probably prefer the softer water printed out.
Great scenery!
I like the first image Adam... higher contrast and warmer tones...
Yet another splendid opening sequence - tantalizing drone footage and a well-chosen soundtrack set the tone expertly.
The opening is stunning.
Great choice of location Adam, not the usual places we've become so a custom to on these channels......VERY refreshing. You've proven this year that between China, and Greenland that the longer it takes to get to a neat place the more unique your photos are likely to be especially because you know you're craft.
Adam love your content! It is always nice to watch a video that tells a story and has a little technical info with it.
Amazing landscape.
Adam, if you had said you were in Newfoundland, I would have believed it! I live here, and can tell you the landscape is indistiguishable. We have fjords too, :) lol.

Wonderful story.
Thnx for sharring Adam.
I like the image with the higer contrast, it is more powerful. Thanks for showing us this area, looks really beautiful.
Higher contrast for sure
Was waiting for your video since I woke up. It seems very beautiful place. I like the image with high contrast, love the mood and warmth
Thought I was catching a trailer for a new adventure blockbuster, Wow what an opener. Of the two images the high contrast works for me when seen side by side, would be happy with either! I can see some epic b-roll and images coming our way soon. Cheers Adam.
Wow, looks like you had an incredible trip. I like the higher contrast pic. So interesting. Thanks for sharing.
Personally, I liked your photo with the softer water. I like it when the water shows movement!! 😎
Great video Adam, what a place! Your opening scenes and footage shot with the drone just confirm to me that drones are a positive thing when used in such away, the grandeur and scale of the landscape was clearly obvious when seen from the air, fantastic. I prefer your image with the slightly reduce contrast. Looking forward to seeing more from Greenland. cheers.
What an exciting start Adam! Been looking forward to catching up on some of your videos. Cheers
Contrast version for me Adam, I think it suites the rugged location better. Another great video, cheers for sharing.
Beautiful to say the least. My vote is for the higher contrast image. Looking forward to the other videos.
Great drone work, music and photographs! My vote goes for the high contrast version. Looking fwd to further instalments...
Definitely low contrast photograph is beautiful. Thank you Adam for sharing your talent and knowledge. Best greetings from Mississauga, ON. 🇨🇦🍁🤗
Great video, great footage, excited for more!! (Oh and yeah, definitely the higher contrast picture! Just feels more like actually standing there when looking at it).
i like the image with the softer water...looks like a great area to shoot!
Awesome location, great video with awesome images, thanks for sharing.

Thanks for another great video Adam. I liked the higher contrast one best
Awesome trip Adam!
I like the contrasty image a bit more!
Regards Stefan
I love the drone flight at the beginning! Beautiful shots!
Softer water for me. Amazing pictures!,
As ever, a great video Adam. My preference is the first more contrasty image. I love the way you have captured the splashes contra jour in that image. Also prefer the areas in the first image where you have dodged the sunlight on the ground
Wow...looks amazing, Adam. And, of course, love me some Bugaboos! :)

Cheers and thank you...
Higher contrast, I would purchase that than another milky smoothie water flow. Thank you for the video.
enjoyed soft water image
Thanks Adam... I'm (4) days late watching this, heavens to mergatroid! I'm drawn to contrasty pictures as I agree with the others on that score. I had no idea just how beautiful Greenland is...
Bill on the Hill... :~)

So want to go there ...do t suppose I could get a free trip I'll carry you're gear 😅😅😅
Looks like an extraordinary place, glad it is you who is there to demonstrate the grandeur!
beautiful image and video, i also prefer the higher contrast, have fun Adam.
I think I prefer the higher contrast version, at least for the light on the water in the foreground. It has a warmth that is appealing.
I love your videos I always feel like I am watching a movie.
Stunning drone footage & what amazing scenery!The higher contrast one seems more realistic!
I like them both
Thanks for a great video, what a lovey place 😍
Hi Adam, have to say is the higher contrast one for me with a bit more punch. Love the start of this video 👌🏼
Higher contrast, though would try the finger technique myself in the future.
I also feel like the higher contrast image is more realistic- the foreground is a mix of patches that get hit by the sun and those that are in shadow behind Rocks, hence contrast is fine.
Higher contrast has more feel and power in it and I love that. Low contrast one looks more HDRish.
Adam your drone work is always incredible. the intros to your videos are some of my absolute favorites amongst the landscape photography community! As for the 2 images, I prefer the second slightly softer edit. It has (to me) a much calmer and more inviting feel to it. Stunning shot
What a place to be.... !! I love both the images... lovely play of light on the streaming water. Thanks for posting.
higher contrast for sure
Awesome video Adam. I like the one with the high contrast, like the long shadows from the rocks, and the movement in the water best. Looking forward to seeing more from Greenland, and your funny pronouncing of local place names :D Ove/Denmark
I am still hoping to visit Southern Greenland this Sept. I think I will be on that schooner. Thanks for a great video.
I have a penchant for shooting into the sun so thanks for the "finger technique". I'm not sure why I hadn't run across this before but will certainly be giving it a try in future.
Another vote for the higher contrast. It seems to have more life to it.
What a place, beautiful drone footage and images. I like the first one with the warmer color on the water, but both are great. Interesting town, I didn't see any cars I suppose there is no place to drive to.
There are cars but you're right not many places to drive.

I'd be more than happy with either of those images, but if I had to pick one, it would probably be the softer, slightly less contrasty one.
Adam, you've never been to Newfoundland? You should come sometime, some great locations here, and some great photographers.
High contrast for me.
I think I'm in the minority. I prefer the softer image because to me it looks more natural. Looking forward to the next video as the scenery looks absolutely spectacular. Thanks for a great video Adam.

Love the higher contrast one! :) Wow, it's so beautiful there!! Makes me wish I was there.. xD
Definitely the softer one 👍🏻
Simply "Awesome" .... , I should add it to my bucket list ....
Looking forward to this series Adam.....you should give Newfoundland a try, worked there and in northern Labrador amazing place
I absolutely enjoyed this video, from the stunning opening footage to the shots of the colorful village structures to that last fabulous image. I believe I prefer the higher contrast photo.
Looks like a spectacular place. I might tag along next year. If I'm invited of course.
Of course, perhaps we can share a tent? 😱not!

Great pictures from this lovely island 😍 Greetings from Berlin
PS: From now it's called the Gibbs-Finger-Exposure 👍🏻
i like the one with the finger
There were two with a finger featured. Which one did you like the best Czarek?
@@arbez101 i'm torn
GReat video! I prefer the softer water version myself.
When I grow down, I want to be a photographer just like you! When the sunset photo first appeared, my reaction was to say out loud “Oh my!!!” Brilliant work, Adam. 🙏
Cheers, Jim! trying out the new beast this week.
That looks a really hardcore wild camping workshop, thanks for sharing. Looking forward to seeing more of this exceptional landscape. The softer water image for me, thanks!
Can`t wait to see more from greenland, i like the higher contrast image.
Thanks for taking us to Greenland, I’m traveling there vicariously through your video. I loved the high contrast image.
I liked the softer contrast a bit better.
That intro was sublime and Greenland looks like a photographers paradise. Looking forward to more from your trip and my vote goes to the higher contrast version. Cheers Adam!
I think I like the softer photo normally I like a lot of contrast but for this image the softer.
Higher contrast for the win. Love that the water has more energy. What month were you there? Seems very warm for Greenland!
Without wanting to be cynical, I prefer the more contrasting image, since the direct sunlight is more inclined to form a hard contrast. Not too soft. Very well done is the splash in the middle of the otherwise very spongy water. A pleasure to see more from your trip to Greenland.
