As an older photographer with not the greatest knees for hiking (and a few extra pounds!), I find roadside photography very liberating. I can carry more gear, without actually having to carry it, and there are amazing compositions available if you just slow down a little bit.
Wayne, you are a lucky man. I live in a big city and I only have bricks and asphalt. My country house is located 300 km from home, I travel on weekends, and there is very little time left for photography. I spend more time digging into the ground. And the landscapes are exactly the same. There is the same lonely house and the same gate. But from your story I understand that it is difficult for you to drive and look at the terrain at the same time. Eduard.
You described most of my everyday photograhy in this wonderful video , Wayne. I call it, "going to see what we see" Clouds, no, I don't add things that weren't there but, telepone lines...Man-made and shouldn't be there..lol, so if its a great shot, I send them into the ether. I also take a note book and mark down where I am when I cannot stop for some reason but, know I should revisit a spot. Saves your memory some downtime and you can plot it on a map so that you reference it to see what your trip might be for your next outing. I was hoping that at 5:18, you might take a shot of the old gate handle, shadows on the fence, and the beautiful out of focus background that would follow but, you were in the midst of sharing some excellent points. Thanks so much for your production work...looking forward to our next outing :)
Thanks very much. Noting down some reminders can be very useful! I’m glad to hear that you enjoy this type of photography too. Hope you get some good photos next time you are out!
I’ve done roadside photography many times, sometimes with great success and other times returning home empty handed. It can be frustrating at times because you can not get close enough to the subject you want to photograph due to trespassing restrictions. I generally do roadside photography on my way to a destination to photograph something else rather than making roadside photography my actual plan or destination.
Good points Mark, I’m sure many people share your experiences. Finding a good shot from the roadside on your way to somewhere is a great bonus! Thanks for watching.

I fully agree, very true! Thanks for watching.

Hi Wayne. Love this video. I like to go exploring on country gravel roads on my dual sport motorcycle. Makes it easy to park just about anywhere.
Thanks Daren! Ah that sounds like a great way to find some nice photo opportunities!
