Nigel. Big fan. I have watched all of your videos, again and again. One comment, which applies to so many of us amateurs and to so many of the professionals that post videos to TH-cam. At some point in your videos, on occasion, you will make a reference to stacking and other procedures in Photoshop. At that point, you leave a certain percentage of the viewers. I leaned in LRC and that's where I edit. So, for all the great instruction that you provide in your videos, you literally close the door on many of your viewers because of your reference to Photoshop. Believe me, I would love to become proficient IN Photoshop, but as yet, that hasn't happened. That said, I really love the work that you do and the videos that you post. Keep making videos.
One of the best and most underrated photography channels on TH-cam. Thanks for your effort keep it up....
That singer mate… ! Out of this world. Something about you man, totally different from the rest. You've become my favourite artist of this century. God bless you my friend.
J-Pop with a tripod?? Talk about being out of one's comfort zone. Can't wait for the next video!
Great lesson! Looking forward to your discussion with James. Love his humor.
Fantastic place to be, Nigel.
I used to do a lot of landscape photography, but due to lifetime illnes/disability I can't go to longer trips .
I didn't give up and choose different type of photography, maybe one day I could go to places like this one.
So, I really enjoy watching your videos and in my mind I am there...
Keep up good work.
You got a glimpse of a unicorn, James with a tripod!!
Thanks, Nigel. Not only is it a please to view your images, but I pick up some good tips every time I watch your channel.
U are a very lucky guy sir. You were able to get funstatic shoot and have lots of time doing ur love of ur life. I wish i am as good as you sir. One of my love in photgraphy is land and sea scape sir
Great video mate! Looking forward to seeing what special effects wizardry you've used to 'catch' me using a tripod... 😂
my phone. ha
First time I seen a vid where the focus point in shown ... I like that :)
Its such an important point that most times we may not even need shutter speeds more than a second. Or perhaps not even a ND filter. So all the people out there with just a camera and lens, you too can try long exposures with simplest of camera settings and a tripod.
Yes definitely
Excellent video Nigel. Fantastic long exposure shooting points you made. Truly big help to us. THANKS.
One of the first that I see showing as well the focus point on their picture. Very usefull!
That opening shot is a classic from just beneath Gásadalur! It's an awesome little village, and unbelievably cute.
I personally do not like that cotton candy look to water that has become so cliche in water photos. I like the ones you took that have a faster shutter speed that still show some detail in the water and not just that washed out cotton candy look. So, I really appreciate your inclusion of comparison photos.
Thank you for opening a new page for me.
Thanks for another informative video, Nigel. My best takeaway is that a "Long Exposure" is simply one that allows me to capture the motion that's in the image. It could even be as fast as 1/2000! as you showed with the back-lit waves with the off-shore wind.
It certainly can accentuate motion, I hadn't thought of it that way before! 👍
This is hands down one of the most useful videos I've seen in a long time. Not from you, I mean from anyone anywhere. Really really great information, and absolutely helped me understand what I need to be aiming for with long (or not) exposures. Also, I love when slightly more serious photographers pal around with jokers. You and James, Thomas Heaton and Gavin Hardcastle. In both cases, I am not implying that James and Gavin aren't serious about their craft, they absolutely are, they're just silly in the process.
Thanks a lot Christine...
Really enjoyed this Nigel. For folks like myself who don't know a great deal and just want to take some nice pics through life these are great, very informative and enjoyable to watch.
Thanks Nigel, looking forward to next weeks vid. 😎
That was really good. The insights into "long" exposures are very helpful. James with a tripod??!! What??!! Never....
One of my favourite genres so absolutely loved this episode Nigel as the images were fantastic
Thanks a lot - appreciate that
I like the analysis on the water and various shutter speeds. The ironic thing is many painters copy straight from the high shutter speed not using the nice abstraction of the waves, so its more "photo" like than a good photo that has some balance between blur and sharpness.
That first landscape shot, amazing !
The points you made here really made me understand the timing so much better. Thank you!
Wonderful as ever !
Shall try out experimenting with various shutter speeds .
Thanks, Nigel, for this video. It’s the most helpful one I’ve seen showing the difference that shutter speeds make, & to find the critical point for movement/detail. It’s that critical point that I’ve been thinking about for a while now, & will have to experiment myself. For someone, like myself, closer to (but still a long way from) the South Pole, the images are really impressive.
Fantastic video in a great place. Long exposure is one of my favorites. Thank you so much for your insprational sharing👌👌
the risks that you take for LandscapePhotography! Kudos Mr. Danson!
Lots of good advice there, Nigel, and a more intelligent approach than just bunging in a Big/Super Stopper.
Amazing places you get to see
Good point about not actually needing a very long time to get an effective LE.... All relative to the speed of movement of what you're shooting 👍
Hands down one of the best water long exposure tutorials I’ve seen. Going on a trip to Japan next week and photographing the rivers and waterfalls there. This will help me a lot to get the perfect composition. Cheers man
Thanks a lot - appreciate your kind words
@@NigelDanson I've watched 6 other videos on this subject, and after watching yours, I finally get it!!! I was getting pretty frustrated, as I was trying to shoot waterfalls at 30 seconds...lol, didn't turn out so well...
For digital it’s pretty easy to do some bracketing. I once did a 10 exposure series on 4x5 film on the Big Sur coast near Monterey in 1/2 stop intervals (including reciprocity, it was dusk) to see what time worked best to my eye. Really worth doing for you photo notebook.
This video has been so helpful. I have a trip with my family and we plan to visit multiple waterfalls over a week long trip. I will be using so many of these tips. Thank you so much
Some fantastic shots, love your work
Excellent episode, Nigel! Your exploration of long exposure relative to intent/rate of subject movement is for me, a fresh look at this technique. Thanks for sharing and cheers from BC!
Found this so useful, picked up a couple of new ideas. Thanks Nigel 👍🏻
Very insightful. You’ve inspired me to conduct some experiments with my shots. Thank you!
Insightful video. I am just starting out with trying more long exposure photography. Your tips and personal opinions on the camera settings and timings have made me rethink my approach. In a good way. Short-long exposure photography. Less can be more pleasing. Thanks.
Another excellent vlog full of brilliant information. I loved the first shot showing where you focused, would have loved to have seen you point of focus in the other shots. Long exposure really is an art form on its own.
I was going to put it in but didn’t think it was necessary - will do more of that in future
Fabulous tips, Nigel. Experimenting with shutter speeds is fun 👍🏻 I knew you couldn’t get through the film without your favourite saying, “it doesn’t get any better than this”! In the Faroe’s it genuinely doesn’t! I would love to go there but not sure I am good enough - eeekkk!
Of course you are good enough! Just go 👍👍👍
lovely cinematic, lovely music and a perfect tutorial
good to see you enjoying your time there Nigel
I personally like the shorter exposures in seascapes that show movement but are short enough to convey the roughness and power of the sea, rather than the soft milky effect that longer exposures give. I feel that the longer exposures dull down the feeling of raw power that the waves present, if that makes sense
Great information again, from an amazing location!!
Looking forward to James video "how to shoot a long exposure without a tripod"
hmmm becoming easy with m43 IBIS up to 3 seconds no problems, bracketing handheld as well ... but Im sure James will tell us :)
Hi Nigel, Thank you so much for the great tutorial, I personally learnt a lot from your nice explanation. God bless you and keep photographing great pictures!
Loved the Puffin at the end!
Picturesque! One of your best videos!
Loved the photo with waves at the cliff. That is an extraordinary take.
Thanks Nigel. I am learning so much from you.
Brilliant .... thank you
Very helpful Nigel
Love all your videos and listening f to your thought process. Also love how calming the video is. Thanks so much. Can’t wait to see the calendar
Thank you so much for all your explanations. I'm learning a lot. Great video !
Excellent video. I’ll be compositing my waterfalls from now on here in Oregon, when needed. I like my waterfall images at anywhere from 1/5 to 1/20 in general, depending on conditions.I love some texture.
Forgotten how good your tutorial videos are 👍🏼
Appreciate the notations as well as the “live” tips. Gorgeous landscapes!
Gorgeous shots, Nigel. I love taking long exposures, especially of waterfalls 😍😍😍
Love the print! The water looks incredible!
Another inspiring video Nigel. In the beginning I was excited just to get that misty water look that has that dream quality to it. The more I shoot the faster my exposure time are getting. I went to a local water fall and shot the same frame in 10-15 different exposure times. I processed them exactly the same and was able to narrow down the exposures that worked best for me in those conditions. Over time with practice I am able to take an image and capture the energy in the water in a way to match the mood I am trying to portray. Still a work in progress but even if the composition was not that successful if I learned about my exposure times then I feel I have accomplished something.
Great idea - Mason... Thanks for the kind words
I normally shoot waterfalls at 1/6th s, gonna try faster this weekend thanks for the tips. 👍
Brilliant Video mate, only just discovered your channel but been binge watching like crazy and learning so much, thanks!
Thanks for the practical tips. Your drone footage makes me long to be there - and the photographs you displayed (with the water details preserved) are spectacular! 👏
11.46 image you say on skye, personally think this is in Glencoe,stunning image either way .
Fantastic many thanks and very useful. Wish I had seen this before my holiday near some sea stacks, I definitely exposed for too long. Keep up the good work and inspiring photography.
Another great video.
Fantastic images and a great tutorial . Keep those awesome videos coming. Thank you Nigel.
Great video Nigel. Really enjoyed it and picked up some tips. I am guilty of always doing the longer shots. I love the blue sea in that shot. Faroe now on my bucket list too.
Amazing pictures in this new video, Nigel
Nicely done video. I am just starting to experiment with long exposures so this was very interesting to me. I love that you always provide good examples of your work to explain what was done. Looking forward to next week.
Thanks Gisele - appreciate the kind words and glad you enjoyed it.
Super Video, Nice information
Wonderful video!!!
Fantastic images and good pointers Nigel. I was recently in Mexico and was trying to catch images like your last one with sun and spray @ 1000/sec.
It is great fun isn't it - and you can take as many as you want with digital.
the puffin is the star of this video.
Ha ha - yep! Only one I saw
Thank you for another brilliant video. You really do look very happy in the Faroes!
I am!
Great video and very informative 👍
Great video Nigel. I binged all your video's and learned so much! You're an inspiration and just wanted to say thank you for that. 🤗🙏
Thanks Yvonne - really do appreciate the support
It’s a nice end for a video: puffin walking out of the frame 😄 again a helpful video: I often make the mistake to use a to long shutter speed. I think I have to do some exercises... 📸
The images were magnificent!
watch the videos for the education and of course the photos, stay for the "it doesnt get better than this"
I took a good photo of a waterfall with long exposure and it made the water look like silk, that was on my iPad.
Excellent tutorial thanks. I really need to improve my long exposure work. Would love to see how you combine different exposure shots in photoshop. 👍
Great video, fantastic images. I would have gone too slow - not now 👍🏻
Another tips packed video Nigel with wonderful examples. Loved it. Would have loved to see some examples of moving clouds also there to complete it. Maybe another video to cover that?
I don't really like moving clouds as love the texture in them. Sorry! Glad you enjoyed this video and thanks for the kind words.
Very informative and encouraging. thanks.
This was a really helpful, educative video with great pictures of yours, as well.
Thanks - appreciate your kind words
Gave me a heart attack at 7:30 when video cam started to move:-0). Thought the tri pod was going to fall!!
Jim
Great episode.b
Your videos are great, and i like the music can tell us name of the singer? Thanks
Very good tips for long exposure... Really liked it...😍
Fabulous video, thanks so much! I do love your pics (and your accent). One question though: I think I have a fair grasp of the whole ND-filter thing - but I'm not sure about the advantages of a polarizer... Do you have a vlog dedicated to that?
And finally one idea to lessen your pain with chosing only 12 pics for a calender: Just allow yourself to a 13th pic as a cover photo!
Great video
Thank you so much
What a great learning experience
Thanks really enjoyed your vlog. It has made me think differently 're long exposures especially as I am doing a bit more seascapes. I think mine are to much the same. I will definitely be experimenting.
Love your videos. Can't wait for your 2020 calendar pics. I have the 2019 which I love. One suggestion is to make the month's numbers a little darker.
Thanks Peter - and thanks for the tip on the calendar
Thanks for the great content, learned a lot of you!
Great video & stunning photographs 👍
from 00:45 you can watch beautiful flight show of a bird.
Hello Nigel, can you explain how to do a doble expositure? I'll really appreciate. Thanks
I really really want to go to the faroes
