    I was about to book you for a workshop but suddenly Mark Denney had a slot open up so I jumped on it instead. I mean, you're good but I couldn't pass up a real pro like Mark. Figured I might book you later in the year but then the 2018 landscape photographer of the year, Adam Gibbs, has some workshops coming up and I HAD to book one of those. Not sure there's anything you could show me after all that. Just kidding of course. If I had the cash I'd be all over one of yours. Of all the photographers I watch I really think you consistently outshine the others. Love your photography. The image of the reflection in the water is outstanding. Thanks for another informative and hilarious video.

    I absolutely love the photos of the dead trees. A wow moment. You think you have big holes in your roads, one day I was driving around in one of our national parks when I went down into a hole. I drove around in there for a while before finding my way out. Hahaha

  • @trevhill952
    @trevhill952 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    This leaf tossing into the scene reminds me of other photography workshops where they organise red yachts to sail past icebergs in Antartica, or majestic white horses to stampede through ocean waves, albeit on more of a budget and much more believable. Nice work Gav.

    Here in the lower 48 I heard a story that you can approve a cell phone tower to be put on your property and collect royalties for life. Not sure if you can do that in Nova Scotia but worth looking into on your House/Church property.

    Hey guys. Hands down, Chris has the best poker face I have ever seen. Nice to know that he lives there as well. I am sure you will hook up again some time in another video. The Mark Denney comment was spectacular. Some really wonderful images taken. You nailed it with the comment about wondering what you are looking at. The dead trees and colour glow from the upper vegetation was just brilliant. The last shot has to go in your next book. Nice sneaky pinch with the Twirl, Amanda. Have a good week all. We are going through a very cold snap here in the UK at the moment.

  • @brad_in_yyc

    All sunshine in Nova Scotia? Now I know where our Ontario sun has gone. Haven't seen it here in what seems like months. Another fabulous video, Gavin. Really liked the swirly leaf chucking result. Who knew dead foliage could be so beautiful.

  • @iamdebmiller
    @iamdebmiller 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Gavin, those last images of the dead/living trees were absolutely stunning. They may be my all-time favorites of yours, including the ones you did a few videos back that featured dead trees coming up out of water. The reflections and the turned-around nature of the photos like these gives the mind a lot to consider. Beautiful!

    • @nsbhagwat
      @nsbhagwat 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Gavin, in that picture which tree/s have you focussed on? There's a clear V shape that is formed by the dead trees.

  • @JS-wz3km
    @JS-wz3km 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The beaver pond image feels like you caught two seasons. The current winter on top and the echo of fall that recently was on the bottom. Makes for nice color bands across the image as well. You should make a list on your TH-cam about page of your favorite candy bars. Personally, I like Twix or Peanut Butter Snickers.

  • @PhilipBallGarry
