Please keep watching as the video doesn't finish when expected :) We really enjoyed this one and I hope you do too. As always, I really appreciate and look forward to your comments.
Hey Simon sorry to be nosy just hoping that on okay ,as you've not been on here for a couple of months . miss your videos as I think your one of the best on here
Beautifully produced and a joy to watch. The resulting photos are great too. And surely watching Meg bouncing around and returning for loves and cuddles would warm anyones heart.
This might be your best video yet, or at least very near the top of the list! I loved seeing Meg have so much fun and the images are inspiring, thanks, Simon.
I'm glad I watched until the end -- all so quiet and peaceful. And the monotone colouring of your images emphasises the cold and stillness of a winter's day. Cheers.
Another delightful video. As you say perseverance does pay dividends, in this case with some super images as well as a great time with, what is possibly, the happiest dog on the planet. Both results are worthwhile on their own but together are memorable.
Absolutely stunning photographs of the scenes in this video, you can actually feel and hear the silence of the snowy atmosphere in your images. Love the way you explore and explain your views. Inspirational stuff!!
Thank you for talking about the struggle of photographing snow. I have found it a real problem. Your idea to circle what you want to photograph is a great idea.
I love the solitude of your journey into photography and it really reflects remarkably well in your photos. Great work, oh and your companionship with your dog balances it out quite well too.
Thank you for a lovely new year's gift Simon. This was a sublime serene monochromatic visual experience. I loved your links on camera with the snow gently showering down. Bliss! And of course the snow ball scene with Meg was a delight!
The first segment of this video was very informative and extremely beautiful. I appreciated the talk about having to crop the branches from a tree that wasn't included as this is something I struggle with in my work. I was drawn into the next day's segment immediately by the stillness of the snow covered branches and the music which accompanied, so surreal. It was a truly magical capture! As always just brilliant.
Wow, what a way to start off the new year. Stunning images and a great vlog and as always what joy to see Meg having fun. Thank you for sharing Simon and really looking forward to next exciting adventure.
Well what a start to 2018! If this excellent video journal (its too good to call a vlog) is anything to go by your viewers are in for a treat this year! Beautiful work Simon, the quality of the footage, b-roll, narrative and music are all out of the top drawer and the images you included are superb. I don’t quite understand those who gave this a thumbs down, I guess there are those who wouldn’t recognise quality if you slapped them in the face with it!😳 It’s always wonderful to see Meg enjoying herself so much, you can’t help but smile watching her antics, what an engine she has mate! Take care and stay safe.🍀👌
Simon, what a fantastic video. In terms of setting up and executing each sequence, the amount of effort and passion you put in is obvious. I loved the photos as well!
I don't think I've watched one of your videos where I wasn't inspired and impressed by your simplistic approach and impressive results. Your photography is excellent and I appreciate your willingness to share your journeys with those of us who watch. Thank you
Who knew Yorkshire could be so beautiful? Thank you for another great video, splendid to see Meg playing, the fountain pen and journal........great touch!
Love your videos Simon especially your skills with drone, that transition from drone going in to the cloud to one of the shots you took was a thing of beauty!
Simon, I know this is not exactly a photography response but I live in a place that really does not have winter. I must say it baffles me that your pup can handle the snow and water. I guess all that energy she has must help keep warm. Thanks for the winter scenes. One day I hope to see and photograph it.
Wonderful video Simon, I’ve subscribed to quite a few channels but I look forward to your videos more than any other. What fabulous scenery and I so enjoyed watching Meg in the snow ❄️ 🐶😀
Brilliant video. The ambient piece you used for the final shots was brilliant, and that drone footage in the same section was outstanding! Such loneliness, it’s truly beautiful.
Thanks for another great video, Simon! I finally joined your mailing list, and am hoping to book one of your workshops if I can make it over to England and Scotland later this year (I grew up in London, but now live in the US). I'll be in touch as soon as our travel plans become clearer. Keep up the great work, and Happy New Year!
Great video Simon took me back to my childhood, winter in the woods near my home in Staffordshire. Your images are fantastic and I loved the drone footage the snow and mist creates a beautiful atmosphere. Well done.
Great work as usual Simon. Beautiful imagery both photographically and video. As a person recovering from back surgery myself, you’re an inspiration for me to get back out there shooting. Always looking forward to the next video. Congratulations!
Gorgeous! You finally got your fog and mist in the snow! Your videos just keep on getting better and better. Look forward to another great year. Happy New Year from hot, humid & snowless Brisbane!
Fantastic video, Simon, one of your best ever. I just loved the sequence at the end where you returned to the woods and took those haunting, moody images in the mist and fog. Thanks, so much-I think I'm going to watch it again.
There were some really wonderful images in your video. Loved specially the first lonely Pine tree and the one like a pathway in the wood (#3 from the end)
Hi Simon, I like your high quality videos very much. Not only from a photographers view it is always great fun to watch your energetic dog rumping. Guido
Love the drone work and truly appreciate the reminder to keep the passion burning to carry you through to the results you desire. Top notch...as always!
There's nothing quite like a SB video after a long day cooped up in an office! The avenue of trees is my favourite from this shoot. Lovely drone work too.
Hi there Simon. Thanks again for another nice video. I wanted to congratulate you on your beautiful shot that you submitted for the Outdoor Photographer competition. Very nice how the light can fall just right and make a normal scene become spectacular. Keep up the good work. You are inspiring me to bone up on my photography. Keep the videos coming, especially ones with tips to help us all improve. All the best.
Thank you for sharing the peace and beauty of a lovely winter day. The photos are a bonus but the real treasure is being immersed in all that natural beauty. Your videos capture the feeling of the natural surroundings so brilliantly. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome scenery Simon. Great photo's. Love the composition of your shots. One of these days I would love to go up there for winter. I'm in Arizona and it's in the mid-70s right now. Keep up the great work.
Hello Simon, this forest is certainly a very photogenic wood with lovely compositions and that snow makes it very special. Great images; drone work; and looks like you really enjoyed yourself immensely.
Hello Simon, Once again an absolutely stunning video and beautiful photos! I just love Meg, she has so much energy and a joy to watch her playing. Thank you so much for sharing. Wishing you all the very best for 2018....
Absolutely gorgeous! All of it. Since I can’t afford the a7r iii right now I was thinking of getting the a7 ii instead. I saw the camera on here and thought it was a Sony. I decided to look at the information you’ve included in the description and see that you really enjoyed the a7 ii. That is endorsement enough for me. Currently using a6000 and time for an upgrade! Thanks for the inspiring gorgeous video!
Another great video Simon so inspiring! we've got a caravan booked for the last weekend in January in the Lakes to do some photography just hope the weather is as good as on this video...fingers crossed! keep up the good work.
Lovely episode, this. I know it's a year back, but I've only just discovered it. I miss North Yorkshire, and this made me happy watching. I like the way you've used music, especially.
Happy new year Simon (and Meg) and what a video to start the year with. Stunning images from a fantastic landscape. I was pleased with some of my snowy images but they are mere snapsots in comparison. I look forward to the next one :-)
Please keep watching as the video doesn't finish when expected :) We really enjoyed this one and I hope you do too. As always, I really appreciate and look forward to your comments.
Hey Simon, can you share a link for those base layers you mentioned please? I'm always looking for solutions to keep me warm!
Cheers Simon, I'll check it out! :-)
Hey Simon sorry to be nosy just hoping that on okay ,as you've not been on here for a couple of months . miss your videos as I think your one of the best on here
Hi Julian can you share the link for the base layers please. I cant see it for some reason. Many thanks
How did I miss this one, going to have to go back and go through them all. Enjoyed it
Do not need a TV anymore. The glorious three Tucker, Heaton and Baxter are much more interessting and fun to watch. Greetings from Germany.
I SO Agree!
The peace and tranquil atmosphere in the forests you visit really come across in your videos. I find them so uplifting.
Beautifully produced and a joy to watch. The resulting photos are great too. And surely watching Meg bouncing around and returning for loves and cuddles would warm anyones heart.
That is one happy dog. A winter woodland walk with a happy dog. Yes that would be therapeutic.
Meg is always so happy. I just love watching her😊😍
Magic. Thank you, Simon for being so revealing and intimate with your creative process. You are an inspiration.
What a magical Atmosphere, the music is amazing, the woodland is beautiful. So glad I found this channel!
Congratulations on winning the landscape photo award -well-deserved!
Very kind, thank you!!
This might be your best video yet, or at least very near the top of the list! I loved seeing Meg have so much fun and the images are inspiring, thanks, Simon.

Thank you for talking about the struggle of photographing snow. I have found it a real problem. Your idea to circle what you want to photograph is a great idea.
Brilliant and beautiful work from start to finish Simon - a privilege to watch. Thank you. And yes - always perseverance and passion. Superb.
I love the solitude of your journey into photography and it really reflects remarkably well in your photos. Great work, oh and your companionship with your dog balances it out quite well too.
What a gorgeous video Simon, so beautiful and peaceful. Loved your images and the drone work. Meg is quite a star, every shot of her made me smile.

Wow, what a way to start off the new year. Stunning images and a great vlog and as always what joy to see Meg having fun. Thank you for sharing Simon and really looking forward to next exciting adventure.
I'd forgotten this one!
Beautiful as always.
Meg looked to be having loads of fun : )
Great as always. Please send some of that snow down to West Sussex.
Well what a start to 2018! If this excellent video journal (its too good to call a vlog) is anything to go by your viewers are in for a treat this year!

Great one Simon.... love it when there are big fluffy flakes coming down - nothing better than being out on a winter day like that....
Nice Traveller style notebook. Everything else was awesome too, especially Meg
Fantastic images and very creative and atmospheric footage - thank you keep up the good work.
Who knew Yorkshire could be so beautiful? Thank you for another great video, splendid to see Meg playing, the fountain pen and journal........great touch!

Thank you very much, Bri! Much appreciated :)
Love your videos Simon especially your skills with drone, that transition from drone going in to the cloud to one of the shots you took was a thing of beauty!
Spot on vlog, professional from start to finish, well done Simon

Simon - great videos and your shots of the trees in the snow are amazing. Keep it up.
Another excellent video, and some great captures of the snowscapes! And then there's Meg. ;-)
Very nice video Simon. You once again managed to capture a few stunning scenes!
Presentation 10/10, production 10/10, photography 9/10, Meg content 11/10. ;-)
Thanks but I'm disappointed with those scores ;-)
Thanks Simon for another entertaining and inspiring video. Happy New Year!
We get snow so infrequently that when it comes, you've got to get out in it! Enjoyable, as ever.
Wonderful video Simon, I’ve subscribed to quite a few channels but I look forward to your videos more than any other. What fabulous scenery and I so enjoyed watching Meg in the snow ❄️ 🐶😀
Excellent video, and beautiful pictures. Really enjoyed watching. Happy new year!
Brilliant video. The ambient piece you used for the final shots was brilliant, and that drone footage in the same section was outstanding! Such loneliness, it’s truly beautiful.
That's very kind - thank you!
That was rather beautiful Simon...thank you.
Lovely images. And what a fantastic location with all that snow!
Great video, lovely images and Meg...who is, of course, a star. She makes me smile whenever I see her.
Happiest dog 🐶 ever 👏🏻
That picture at 11:56 is probably my favorite picture I have seen this year. Just gorgeous, whew good stuff
Meg is super cool and playful.

Great video Simon took me back to my childhood, winter in the woods near my home in Staffordshire. Your images are fantastic and I loved the drone footage the snow and mist creates a beautiful atmosphere. Well done.
Simon, what a joy your videos are for me. Wonderful winter land images!
Yet another superb video Simon, love the drone work!
Great work as usual Simon. Beautiful imagery both photographically and video. As a person recovering from back surgery myself, you’re an inspiration for me to get back out there shooting. Always looking forward to the next video. Congratulations!

Happy New Year to you both! Hope to see many more video's from you this year.
Happy new year Simon. Enjoyed the video. Glad the fog rolled in. The images were fantastic. Also Meg can really jump! Wow. Cheers.
Fantastic video, Simon, one of your best ever. I just loved the sequence at the end where you returned to the woods and took those haunting, moody images in the mist and fog. Thanks, so much-I think I'm going to watch it again.
Thank you very much, Robert. Glad you enjoyed it :)
There were some really wonderful images in your video. Loved specially the first lonely Pine tree and the one like a pathway in the wood (#3 from the end)
You get a like just for the slo-mo snowball catching. Made me smile out loud.
Cracking watch mate from start to finish beautifully shot footage and very tidy photos
What a fantastic little story! :)
Best photo vlogger out there, IMHO. I get very inspired by your work and ethos....keep it up please!
That's very kind of you, Toby. Thank you!
Great video Simon awesome images, I miss the UK in winter there is nothing quite like it. Looking forward to more from you in the near future!!
Hi Simon,
I like your high quality videos very much. Not only from a photographers view it is always great fun to watch your energetic dog rumping.
Guido
Stunning Video love your work and of course Meg Happy new year.
Thanks for the inspiration Simon. Meg sure is crazy. I only wish where I live it wasn't so darn cold. Woodland and snow is the best.
Love the drone work and truly appreciate the reminder to keep the passion burning to carry you through to the results you desire. Top notch...as always!
There's nothing quite like a SB video after a long day cooped up in an office! The avenue of trees is my favourite from this shoot. Lovely drone work too.
Agree. "Veg Out Time"
Great video and very inspiring. I can tell you love what you do. Keep it up!
Happy New Year Simon! Great to see new videos from you.

Absolutely gorgeous. So glad you went back for the second day.
Beautiful snow covered trees!
thanks Simon brilliant video as usual really enjoyed watching you've set the bar high for 2018!
Stunningly beautiful vlog and images, so serene and joyful (the wonderful Meg)
Awesome scenery Simon. Great photo's. Love the composition of your shots. One of these days I would love to go up there for winter. I'm in Arizona and it's in the mid-70s right now. Keep up the great work.
Stunning images. Your videos lift my spirits, thank you
Beautiful and I quite enjoyed seeing your dog having such a great time. Thanks for the post.
Enjoyed it very much. Meg is an ace snowball catcher!
Many thanks, Rachael! A shame you didn't get to throw one for her :)
What a wonderful dog! Nice video and great images :)
i watched that last bit of drone footage with my mouth open. amazing scenes.
Hello Simon, this forest is certainly a very photogenic wood with lovely compositions and that snow makes it very special. Great images; drone work; and looks like you really enjoyed yourself immensely.
Many thanks, Allan! It was great so I'm glad you enjoyed it too!
Loved the images and the way you find isolated subjects amid the messiness of the woods. It helps to see how you do it.
Hello Simon, Once again an absolutely stunning video and beautiful photos! I just love Meg, she has so much energy and a joy to watch her playing. Thank you so much for sharing. Wishing you all the very best for 2018....
Thank you very much and all the best!

New level! Absolutely Amazing! Mind-blowingly beautiful! Masterpiece!
Very kind of you indeed, Biff! Thank you!
Lovely episode, this. I know it's a year back, but I've only just discovered it. I miss North Yorkshire, and this made me happy watching. I like the way you've used music, especially.
Just a really nice video with lovely images
Wonderful location, wonderful compositions and one seriously wonderful dog!! Thank you, Simon
Great, great setting. Inspires me to get out this winter. Once it warms up from the -25C we've been exeriencing.
Beautiful stuff Simon, particularly ‘day two’. Very other-worldly.
Many thanks, Gary! Yeah I'm very pleased I went back the next morning :)
Great video and loved the drone footage as well as the beautiful images. Thanks for sharing
Happy new year Simon (and Meg) and what a video to start the year with. Stunning images from a fantastic landscape. I was pleased with some of my snowy images but they are mere snapsots in comparison. I look forward to the next one :-)
Thank you very much, Alan :)
A truly astonishing video!! Gorgeous images and a very inspiring message. Salut Simon!
My gosh Simon. I just love and admire your drone work! Bravo!
