  • @williamchan8866

    You’re really the only landscape photographer I watch, mainly because it’s all about the print. Nice balance of technical and passion.

    Great to see Mads and you together, two of my favourite go-to persons for landscape photography on youtube besides Andy Mumford.

  • @marcusaurelius6536
    @marcusaurelius6536 ปีที่แล้ว +19

    These crossover videos between these friends always makes me appreciate the art of photography more. All these people are at the same place with the same conditions and they all shoot different pictures with their own stylistic flair. Makes me feel good when photographers aren't trying to capture the same shot as everyone else, but their own version of it instead.

  • @TheKenbland
    @TheKenbland ปีที่แล้ว +30

    If not out and about doing a bit of landscape phototrickery myself, there’s nothing better than relaxing with a nice cup of coffee and a Nigel TH-cam video. Part of our Sunday morning routine! 😊

  • @mariecruttenden2887

    Nigel, this video is a testament to your perseverance despite recently recovering from your health problems. Great photos.

  • @antonoat
    @antonoat ปีที่แล้ว +13

    The great thing with the 100-400 besides being a stellar sharp zoom, allows points of interest in the image to be larger in the frame thus allowing much more detail where we want and need it! Wide angles have their uses but for me in landscapes less than many might imagine! Great stuff as always Nigel, thanks for sharing it with us! 👏👍

  • @gordonelwell7084
    @gordonelwell7084 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Everyone has their favorite photography TH-cam channels. When I see Nigel Danson has a new video, I rush right over and watch. Always high quality content and great stories to go along too. Thanks for all that . . .

  • @mikegoodwin9896
    @mikegoodwin9896 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Honestly - this is my favourite of your videos, and I LOVE your channel so that's saying a lot. Such a superb location, and the long lens style is my favourite style of landscape photography. Thank you!

  • @KellyPettit
    @KellyPettit ปีที่แล้ว +11

    I've been watching since your very first episode. May I say, while your photos were very good, you've stepped up your game in a big way over the last couple of years? I hope someday to improve my skills as you have clearly done. In fact, you've become one of my favourite landscape photographers over the last few years. I also love that you show your entire photo much faster than others do. I always want to see the entire composition immediately and not a corner of it. Lastly, I like the work you do to get to the point. I've grown a little tired of B-Roll on some channels. OK, I sound like a complainer. I'm not. Blessed TH-cam and people like you give people like me the opportunity to watch content we love. THANK YOU, Nigel. This was a very special episode IMO. Will watch the other blokes, too, as I do. :)

    Nigel, these are incredible images! I follow you and Mads both, two of my favorite. Apart from learning from you both, what's most important for me is the great positive vibes i get when I watch these vdos from you guys.

    100-400mm is one of my favorite lenses. It's just so versatile. I honestly don't understand anyone that opts for a 70-200 as their tele option.

    The Nikon Z 100-400 it's my favorite lens in my kit. It just pulls you in ... giving you access to details and small compositions within the scene unlike any standard zoom. It's amazing !

    It's obviously not the same class as the 100-400mm, but the 50-250mm that you can get with the Z50 might still be my favorite lens on my shelf. It's got a similar field of view and all the things you mention apply, you just get to pick out so many scenes if you've got a good vantage. It also weighs less than the water that I usually take on a hike which i appreciate.

    Wonderfull shots in a crazy good location. As you said everything just came together the fog, the light hitting the tree tops, just fantastic. Love watching your channel, miss taking landscapes but I am more focused on Bird Photography with a bit of Macro and street photography due to where I live.

  • @SueFerreira75
    @SueFerreira75 ปีที่แล้ว

    Awesome!! The challenge with these epic conditions is the rapidly changing fog and light and knowing you cannot possibly catch all the many great compositions. Synapse Collapse is my expression for days and scenes like this.
    Thank you all for sharing your wonder and appreciation of the beauty.

  • @spidersj12
    @spidersj12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Your cloud inversion / foggy compositions in that valley on this outing were stunning. And when you get the right location to shoot from with long lenses you can get a plethora of compositions. You almost want to have a bunch of cameras capturing different compositions since the perfect light is so fleeting.

    At first I wasn't drawn to the photo with the white house when you displayed it in camera, but later, looking at the printed version I changed my mind. Also, I have started printing much more due to your enthusiasm. Thanks.

  • @calieeldalie2547
    @calieeldalie2547 ปีที่แล้ว

    What a super morning you had, glorious light and trees and mist! the 1m long print is gorgeous.
    Indeed, long lenses are a gem. I just got myself one lately and I start experimenting. It's not as straightforward as I though, I always feel that I need more in my field of view, but the process to go more simple in a composition (as exemplified by your photo with the asymmetrical tree, or the one with the tree tops in fog) is very interesting.
    Thanks for sharing!

    Great timing for me. Just got myself a 100-400 and it's so refreshing to tune my eye to detail and distant scenes. Michael Shainblums use of the 100-400 has been a big inspiration for me to get one. Thankfully canon offer a relatively cheap 100-400 for their full frame camera.

    I started saving money after this lens hit the roadmap expecting the price to be prohibitive for me. I was correct in that regard so I’ve been waiting for something else that interests me. I finally gave up and ordered a used Tamron 100-400 F mount at less than a quarter the price. It should be delivered tomorrow. I don’t expect it to match the Nikon but it will give me the extra reach I’ve been wanting.
