Which composition did you prefer 🤔?
I really liked the photo with the two birch trees framing the mountain. Very nice!
As a beginner I realised pretty quickly when you where talking about framing that I never leave enough space for it breath. Thank you for making me realise that!
Definitely be interested in seeing a review of that camera bag :)
👍Thanks Gareth 😁
@@TheJoshuaPeg It makes perfect sense to just slide it around instead of taking the bag off. I’ve got a Tarion bag which is great, but not a fan of the tripod holder underneath as when you lower it to the ground, it scratches the poles.
Hey, Joshua! I am relatively new to photography and have been practicing it as a hobby for about a year now. In addition to your tip re: balancing a composition on your finger, one thing that has really helped me is blurring my eyes when I am looking at an image. It allows me to remove distractions such as subject matter, and focus solely on shapes, colors, and symmetry.
Great video, really love the "balance on finger" metaphor for image balance, such a simple and well articulated "trick".
Thanks Anthony
Excellent video as always, used to visit North Wales as a child , we're very lucky here in Wales, wherever you go there's some stunning views and scenery even where I live in south Wales especially in the sunshine. 👍
Thanks so much 😁 Yeah I feel so privileged to live here
I was at Cregennan lakes a couple of days ago, beautiful place. Thankfully its only 25 minutes from where I live. I seldom use a tripod these days. I took similar compositions to the ones you posted but also a few different ones although I didn't go up the peak this time. Nice video.
Great stuff Josh!
Thanks for the tip...of the finger.
😂
Always enjoy your videos. Informative and enjoyable to watch.
The pic of the mountains with the haze caught my eye. The colors in the scene really popped out to me. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Joey 😁
Another good Video, good points about composition, talking about composition the quality & presentation of your Videos is noticably improving, cheers from Aussie🇦🇺
Thanks so much Richard
new to your channel - love it
Both the ‘properly framed’ one of the boat house as well as the boat house with no frame 👏 I was there literally last week in misty & drizzly conditions and wish I’d had this advice before my visit! 😅
Thanks Robbie! Yeah, it's definitely one of those places that benefits from good ligt!
I've been using a sling bag similar to yours that my wife gifted me a few months back, and I love it, I prefer that rather than the backpack, you put less stuff in it because o f the space, the more space the more stuff you carry that you barely to never use
Agreed 😁
Thanks for the video. Great as always. What lens were you using? Thanks!
Another excellent video Joshua, with great photos and tips! Your scenery there is very similar to some parts of Wyoming, USA. Keep up your good videos!
Thanks David 😁 I'll have to add Wyoming to my travel list!
Another great and helpful video Mate 👍 I have a similar bag to your new one and love it. I also bought a 3LTR peak design bag as a minimalist set up for street photography which is even better but I don’t have to carry all that video gear about too ! Look forward to your street photography videos as I hope to do more of this too.
Thanks Steven 😁
Lol. That last scene. Thsnk you for your tips. Btw whats the name of the national park. Such a beautiful part of the world.
Snowdonia 😁
Great video, as always! got some really good tips, can't wait to try them out 🙌
Thanks so much 😁
Hi Joshua would you recommend purchasing a tripod when you first get your camera
Absolutely 👍🏼
Love the video. Is the lens you are using the 55-250mm? Is this significantly better than the kit lens?
I did use that for a couple of photos. It is significantly better than the kit lens 👍
I've bought several bags and none quite satisfy me. Really would be interested to see a review of yours.
Will do Holt 😁👍
Interesting bag review😅😮 Being tall not all backpacks fit comfy, I use rivacase shoulder bags. One for camera and gear the other has my mini2 drone gear. Then tripod in its carry bag😊😅😅😅
I didn't get it. About balancing your picture on a finger or like a scale. Can you elaborate in another video. Thanks!
I have the entry level Canon EOS Rebel T100 Kit. It came with the 18-55 mm kit lens. I already have the Nifty Fifty and love it. But I'm wondering if I upgrade the 18-55 kit lens, what do you think I should replace it with? Think budget.
Go with a newer 18-55 in my opinion. The IS STM 18-55 is a great lens
Nice video. I think the one without foreground trees. That balancing tip, how does that tie with the rule of third. Just a thought
Thanks man. Rule of thirds works well because if you've got a subject on one third, the "negative space" becomes a heavy element balancing out the other side. Whereas, if the subject is too close to the edge and not on the third line, the picture starts feeling very imbalanced. I'm planning a video on it at some point.
Joshua, will you ever upgrade? Just going up to a S/H EOS80D would get you one of the most useful features in Back Button Focus. And weatherproof, which is nice.
And I'll be interested to hear if, after using it for a while, the small bag creates headaches or shoulder and neck discomfort from having all the weight on one shoulder.
I'll almost certainly upgrade one day. I'm in no rush though, gear has very little attraction to me. I'm putting money back into things that will grow my business at the mo. But, I'm loving the look of some of the newer cameras on the market
6:40 Full on Alan Partridge 😂
😂
It's the coming down those hikes that makes it dangerous. It's like climbing a tree when you're a kid. lol.
Amen to that!
That's why the wife made me buy an Apple watch 6. If you fall over and you don't hit the button within 30 seconds, it starts calling people. It can even track and send your position.
I've slipped and fell a couple of times(no injury!) and it does sense the fall.
At the very least, it'll make it easier to find the body! 😳
This is in UK? Where about it is in UK?
Cregennan lakes
Is that my Canon SL3?
I do often use a Canon SL3
another helpful window into photography and the art of vision. thank you again for sharing. just a sidenote for me after trying so many different bags, I ended up with Wotancraft bags. I use a 7L pilot for street and their 10L pilot for extended trips or out into nature . they are the first bags that I've beenhappy with
Thanks David 😁 finding a good bag is tough!
