  • In this video I take my camper van to the Peak District to enjoy some alone time with the camera. I wake up to beautiful mist and venture to a nearby woodland to take advantage of the conditions. Oh, and I am also using a Nikon D850... you know, just to see what all the fuss is about.

    Thomas: I'm sure you've noticed something is different
    Me: Surely he is going to talk about the fact that hes shooting Nikon..."

    When the day is finished in work I like to watch your videos as they help with calming me down. The way you present yourself and piece together your videos is peaceful. It makes me want to slow down. Your videos have helped me think differently about photography to just slow down and take in what is around you and just let it happen. Love this video.

    With your talk about the relief you feel getting that first shot, I hope you don’t put too much pressure on yourself to get a great shot every time you’re out. Goodness knows your faithful viewers don’t - and I hope you don’t hold yourself up to unachievable standards just for us. Love your process, approach, attitude and view on life and photography. Keep up the great work.

    WHY? Does everybody make it about the camera? It's not about the camera. Nobody will look at an image and say "oh, that was shot with a Nikon/Canon/Sony/Fuji." It does have EVERYTHING to do with the photography and the photographer. Well done Tom.
    As a heavily invested Canon shooter I do not feel betrayed that Tom is using different gear. Use the best gear that you can regardless of the name on the plate. Thank you Tom for not making it about the camera.

      I saw a comment in the last video that someone spotted a Nikon D850 but I couldn't see it much less actually believed it was true. It wasn't until I saw that the zoom lens wasn't his usual Canon L 70-200 f/4 and the circular eyepiece that it was actually a Nikon. Hmm I wonder if Tom will be testing out the Z7 later. Well. 2019 is going to be A BLAST!!!. As usual thanks for sharing Tom.
