    Lot of comments. This will be lost in the crowd. A friend sent me a link to the video. I'm 75 and had stacked arms, had quit making photographs and had begun to stay indoors. I'm going out tomorrow to get a camera. Hadn't sold the lenses yet. Inspiration comes unexpectedly.

      Please do so! I've had my camera for a while now, but dont know how to use it much. Been trying to do videography & photography for about 3 years. I dont know how to edit. I have a Canon 70d with a canon 50mm USM lens ( Compatible with full frame DSLR ) but my cam is a Crop sensor, soooooo my pics dont come out too good.

    This is stunning, life changing work. I loved it so much - it goes beyond the editing tricks and the music and the views. It's about the story, it's about the connection, it's about the love and Ienjoyed all of it. Thank you for making this and for putting it on youtube to show everyone that you can start with a two minute Tuesday and you can grow and make something like this.
    Thank you Peter!

    I've been so uninspired and unmotivated with my photography pretty much the whole of 2022 but recently I've started noticing more and more things/places I want to photograh recently, then a few days ago my 11 year old granddaughter asked me if I still take photos, I said not really, she said I need to get out with my camera and start taking some again, then her mum told me my granddaughter had been singing my praises to the photographer taking shots of her gymnastics competition and how proud she felt because I've had a few photos published in my local newspaper. That has been on my mind for the last few days days. Today I came across this video, which is great btw, and I've decided to make a bucket list of the places I want to photograph. My granddaughter and this video have given me the inspiration and motivation to do something I enjoy, I can feel the sense of excitement at the thought of doing this. Thank you Peter and thank you to my granddaughter.

    Thanks Peter!
    I'm a leg amputee (paragliding accident) getting into photography and doing a few amateur video's about life after limb loss.
    In Feb I found you on YT - you were the person who inspired me to do this. You've opened a new world to me, and you continue to inspire me when I feel like it's not good enough ...
    Thanks to your tutorials and vlogs I continued pursuing this this new hobby and passion. In May this year a prosthetic manufacturer contacted me to sponsor me with their #1 product. This has enabled me to start hiking again, going to outlying places on foot, carrying my camera gear on my back, getting out into the wilderness for the 1st time in 18 years.
    Your inspiration has made a huge difference to my life - for this I will feel eternally grateful that I stumbled upon your channel when I did.
    This video has upped the ante again - by the end of 2019 I will have my own bucket shot story, and I will have you to thank for it.
    You rock.

    Dear Peter,
    I'm not sure if you would even see this (mostly probably you won't given the number of comments you get) but I just wanted to share with you the feeling that I have right now after watching this video.
    You could say I'm a TH-cam buff and even have a TH-cam channel of my own (Not this account and won't mention the name coz I'm not trying to get publicity here). But lately, actually for the last 2 months I haven't made a single video. I've been going through a very difficult time, kind of a burnout situation and there were situations I even thought of quitting and not making videos anymore. This thought itself made things even worse coz the love I have for film making is something beyond what I can express in words.
    This went on for 2 months and today I was watching this video (BTW I love your content and that smile that you always have), seeing how much passion you have for photography and the extends you would go to get that one shot that you always wanted to take, The Bucket Shot. This took me back to the days when I first started off making videos, the struggles that I went through and the learning experiences from each video. I still remember the day I said I wanted to make videos, everyone started to laugh and said that you can't make videos, you're not meant for that or the things that you have made are really bad or something like that. But now, looking back at those days makes me feel happy and proud coz I overcame all of that made videos, which eventually made me understand that this is something I truly love. Not just the videos , the entire experience is something one could cherish for a lifetime.
    Thank you for reminding me what it really meant to me making a video or taking a picture. I'm filled with happiness to say that you're one of the persons I look up to . And that smile on your face dude...it brings out a smile on my face even when I'm really sad. So thank you. I'm truly honored to be a part of this TH-cam family of yours.
    P.S. Now I feel like this is a bit too long and should have emailed you this. But Its all good.
