Of all the woodland photography TH-cam films I have seen over the past few years, this is probably the only one you need to watch - well planned with a tight structure, making the points economically without extraneous content and with good examples of photographs to reinforce the message. Much better to inspire people to go out and visit woodlands with their camera than many of the over long and aimless wandering I see in some other similar subject content - excellent stuff Nigel.
Few photographers manage to completely take my breath away as you do with your woodland photography, over and over. Thank you for sharing these tips in this video!
Great video, love the tips and the amazing photos. Live shooting into the sun 👍👍 also like the idea of going back to the same area several times to see different composition ideas, tendencies here seems to always pursue new places. Thx for sharing
I think I've hit the jackpot with this video, Cannock chase is my local woods, I was walking around yesterday looking for compositions and thinking what would nigel danson look for, and now I've come across this video Wow incredible thankyou so much
I find woodland photography really difficult. I think that's because there's rarely an obvious subject to focus on, you have to look for really subtle aspects in the landscape. I often find most things look 'boring' on location, but when isolated, framed and post-processed, you can make simple images look nice. Great video!
I've just started photography about 2 months ago and I've just been learning so much from all your videos, Nigel. I watch one or two every morning with my coffee. Your content I find is very informative and just really relaxing and cozy to watch at the same time. Your contentment and passion for your life really shines through and I think that makes a great basis for teaching. Thanks for your work, mate :D
I get that same feeling from his videos, he's so calm (unlike me) and I feel that I am just listening to an experienced friend talking about photography. I've learned a lot from Nigel's videos, and he always inspires me to get out and look for a photo opportunity.
Oh I am green with envy. Devon doesn't have any woodlands like that I have found. Plenty of Ivy on the trees & woodland floor with stinging nettles and brambles. Yes I have Wistmans wood but that is so very different. Fog never seems to turn up on a weekend, very inconsiderate. I will continue my search. I love the photo with the Oak, mist at 13.56 is spectacular.
You're really inspiring to me, I just lost my mom who was my best friend and it really put me in a dark place, I haven't touched my camera since it happened due to depression. I came your across your channel and have been binge watching it! You make me really excited to get back out there😊😊 thank you so much!
You can read it in your eyes, your passion, and also the strength with which you want to convey it to us. I am new to the world of photography but I am really happy to have met you
Thank you...very, very helpful.... I am an amateur photographer and a hiker who is in the woods pretty much every weekend. Can't wait to use some of what I learned in this video!
Nigel's tutorials are like accompanying him on one of his "journeys." The addition of his lovely music choices as well as his very soothing voice, reinforces the peaceful elements he brings to his compositions. After watching, I feel deeply renewed and calm. AND much more knowledgeable about photographing and editing woodlands.
I'm always disappointed with autumn as I know there's so much photography to be done but I always struggle to make good images. Thanks for these tips, they should make a difference for me 🤞🏻
Thanks for sharing tips. That wandering in woodland in early morning and breathing in aroma of dirt is also recharging myself energy after weeklong works. With those tips I think I can take some beautiful shots for my favorite camphor trees.
Got to thank you for the video from Cannock Chase. I only live about 45 mins. from here but never gave it a thought as i thought it was all open country covered with ferns. Went over yesterday and got some really nice pics. Once again, thanks.
I love Groot! He even has a nose. What an amazing tree! Thanks for a great video full of excellent tips. The resulting images are beautiful. The deer at the end was the icing on the cake.
Thanks for your videos Nigel. They’ve inspired me to pick up my camera again and get out and shoot. Awesome morning in a misty, frozen forest this morning. Spectacular. I’ve always found forest photography tricky, but some of your points (not only on this video) have helped.
Very great video. Tips number one and five are very essential to me, but the other tips round them out. Wonderful photos that illustrate your points. Thank you.
Fantastic video Nigel. Thank you so much for your effort and tips, I really appreciate it. Oh my gosh, Groot is something else. Definitely a flash back to the tree characters in the 'Lord of the Ring" movies...
Nigel, I’m a total beginner but absolutely love your videos. I pick up great little nuggets and you’re such a wonderful teacher and present information so clearly without any fluff. Love your work and thanks for sharing it with us!
This is hands down the best video for instruction/guidelines on how to look for a woodland composition ( and can be generalized to other scene types as well). This video is liked and saved to be viewed again and again to reinforce the message! Great work Nigel!!
Just watched this morning before I head out into the considerable rain we have today out here in the North Sound of Washington State. Great tips and examples, and as always inspirational, thanks Nigel.
The print you show around 13:35 looks stunningly beautiful. I really enjoy your channel, I love your approach to photography and how you connect with your audience so thank you for taking the time to make these videos!
Possibly the best Woodland video you have ever put up, As Trevor Pollard said in the previous comment so well structured and the images were just stunning, I think that particular Woodland was just magical for compositions of real quality, but most peoples local venues are not so inspiring, thats why we find this type of Photography very difficult, and you make it look easy because you are a professional and it shows, regards, Colin.
Thanks Nigel, it is so inspiring to listen and see how you work to find the perfect composition. Thank you for sharing, always such good learning. It is so cool to hear on all the details.
The 5 day deal is a wonderful initiative. The downloads took some time but went very smoothly. I’m learning so much as I work through the material. Great value. Thanks to the whole team and contributors who put this together. I recently took a woodland photo into the sun with shafts of light coming down through the trees. I think it’s one of my best photos ever. Having watched this video I now understand why it turned out well!

This video is the most structered and inspiring video to go out and improve woodland photography. Fantastic and thanks for sharing Nigel!
Thanks so much

An absolute master of his craft 👏 🙌
This is very inspiring. The music when photographing the groot - epic.

Gotta say, the image quality is freakin' crystal.

Hello Nigel, I need a slap on the wrist, your woodland photography is just stunning, moody, and interesting, keep them coming mate,
and all the best.
Thank you...very, very helpful.... I am an amateur photographer and a hiker who is in the woods pretty much every weekend. Can't wait to use some of what I learned in this video!
Really well designed in-field examples, especially showing how simple camera movements can drastically change a composition.
Wow that intro drone shot. Spectacular.
I really enjoy that you show the images as prints during the video, it brings an extra depth
Thanks Chris
A wonderful video. The way you explain things is so clear and accessible. Thank you
I like that you don’t need the whole tree in frame, rather just a part of a tree works well. Heading out tomorrow in the rain/fog. 😊
Highlights on Pebbles resting in the sun looked great too, not mention Pebbles breath in the light. Have a great week Nigel!

Como on pal, just trying is good enough. Where I live we don-t even have a proper autumn haha.
This is the best woodland instructional video I have seen. Thank you Nigel.
Thanks Nigel......like your matter of fact style.
Another great video Nigel. I've learnt a lot about woodland photography from this video.
Didn't realise how much i miss Nigel in woodland
Stunning shots n video !!!!! GOD BLESS !!!!
Fantastic video as always Nigel, thank you!
I can't help but imagine the groot tree may say "Ni" and demand shrubbery. Truly an inspiring and motivating video; excellent. Thank you as always.
That was great 😀
Nice walk in the woods. Perfect music for Groot! Rock on!
Oh these photos are amazing!Thank u for your tips!Trees are my very favorite thing to capture!

Amazing video man, love all the detail and work you put into this!
I really appreciate that you show your images as nice-sized prints.
I really appreciate when you teach on composition, one of the more difficult areas in photography. 👍
Thanks for sharing this!
My only note: more b-roll of Pebbles romping please :)
what a lovely place you were in
Got to thank you for the video from Cannock Chase. I only live about 45 mins. from here but never gave it a thought as i thought it was all open country covered with ferns. Went over yesterday and got some really nice pics. Once again, thanks.

Superb video Nigel , learned a lot watching it . Thx
Amazing woodland especially the Groot tree ..... never seen such a beautiful tree with so much character .

I'm on my out the door to my local woodland - thank you soooooo much Nigel for this inspiration and lesson.
What a great video - so helpful for tackling this beautiful but most challenging of genres. Thanks Nigel.
Great video Nigel...not surprised you have so many subscribers. Congrats !

Great tutorial! Thanks so much for being so generous with your knowledge.

Fantastic I learned lots so thank you very much.
Lovely to see you in my local woodlands.
The English woodland has a completely different character than the forest here near the Rockies. Fascinating!
Thanks, such a great tutorial! Can't wait to get out and try your tips.
thats a really cool looking forest

Thanks Nigel, it is so inspiring to listen and see how you work to find the perfect composition. Thank you for sharing, always such good learning. It is so cool to hear on all the details.
The 5 day deal is a wonderful initiative. The downloads took some time but went very smoothly. I’m learning so much as I work through the material. Great value. Thanks to the whole team and contributors who put this together.
I recently took a woodland photo into the sun with shafts of light coming down through the trees. I think it’s one of my best photos ever. Having watched this video I now understand why it turned out well!
Great to hear!
