      They exceed the photography that's for sure. You can get a drone that will carry his camera, he should do that and leave the tripod at home.

      Thanks, i'd do more but the cold ruins my thumbs and my gloves have magnates in them so flying time is restricted to only a couple of minutes in those temps :)

    Hi Thomas, been watching for a long while now. I find myself shopping around at gear quite often. When I'm in that mode, I see one of your videos and it reminds me the gear is not what all this is about. It's okay that I don't have a wide angle lens at the moment. It's okay that I don't own any L glass. You hardly ever even say what lens you're using other than to mention what focal distance and f stop you're shooting at.
    It reminds me that having the latest gear and getting the highest resolution photos technologically possible isn't necessary and I appreciate that. Your videos are always leaps and bounds more inspiring than any of the gear reviewers'. I'm sure many feel the same way.
    So thanks for being here! Keep making your awesome videos that are ACTUALLY about photography.

      That's what set him apart from essentially everyone else, especially so when he first started out a few years ago on the channel. His humble and modest approach is a stark contrast to so many other people out there, youtubers or otherwise. It's always refreshing to see another TH upload.

    • @ThomasHeatonPhoto
      @ThomasHeatonPhoto  5 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      That's very kind, thank you. I certainly wouldn't discourage having the best gear you can stretch to, but in no way is it the most important thing about photography. What's the use in spending all your money on gear if you then don't venture out in to the wilds to use it :)

    3 years ago, in may, I had an accident & fractured my spine & just shy of the 4 month recovery mark in September, I ran (well, jogged/walked) a half-marathon. Hiking -- not my usual "sketchy" trails -- was one of the best "rehabilitation" activities & motivation to not let the injury redefine my life(style).

    Hi Thomas, been subbed for around two years now and always loved your content. So peaceful and tranquil it always destressed me put me in a better mood. However for what must be around six months I haven’t had any notifications from you and assumed you’d been away from TH-cam. It was only today when I searched for one of your old vids to watch that I realised infact you hadn’t been away!! I’m equally pissed off at TH-cam for not letting me see your videos in my feed, as I am happy that now I have 6 months of videos to binge watch. Thanks again for the videos, you’re one of my fav youtubers, and being somewhat of a photographer myself I can appreciate the effort and dedication that goes into the work you out up for us. Big love from the Uk

  • @EwanDunsmuirImages
    @EwanDunsmuirImages 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Panos are mostly what i do - big vistas to record something which (to the eye) is simply incredible, and with Medium format photography to be printed LARGE, the files are "oooh la laa"!
    Big vistas are quite incredible to record and particularly difficult with so much white within any histogram. The beauty here in T's images are probably is probably the beauty of the light and colour over composition. To witness such beauty as the "Belt of Venus approaching the earth chasing the blue earths shadow that we saw in Pano 1 - is simply a natural phenomenon and simply incredible to watch and be lucky enough to record. Well done - "viewing something Majestic" should be something which is on everyones bucket list. Well done T and N.

    That second photo blew my socks off! That little bit of light on that ridge in the centre of the frame puts it over the top, that is where my eye is drawn. When I saw you setting it up I worried the mist in the valley would pull me to the right too far but that light brings you back in. Excellent as always

    • @ThomasHeatonPhoto

    • @ScottAspinall
      @ScottAspinall 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@ThomasHeatonPhoto That light is gorgeous. Conditions like that don't come around often and you got a winner of a shot. Personally, the right side of the image is still much stronger and my eye almost never goes left but the colour play/gradients all over the image would get lost with a tighter crop I think. As I said, this one is tops in my books

    Epic snow covered mountain shots here Thomas! you timed that hike just right. FYI let that Mavic Air land in your palm, I have one and do it all the time, when it senses your hand keep the stick down and it will land, why revving down slower to off. no need to turn it sideways, that puts strain on the motors when your revving it up like that. Keep ruling on the channel TH.
