This is day 2 of a few days hiking the Swiss Alps. I am combining my 2 loves; hiking and Landscape Photography. In this video I hike from Cabane FXB Panossière to Cabane de Mille. I shoot sunrise over the mountains and even a little sports action photography.

My favorite part of this video is when you gelled your arms up when the sun hit the tops of The peaks. Priceless
omg... you just totally lifted my day with that expression on your face when the light came out! A kid on a Christmas morning! Wonderful!
Pri Figueiredo That's good to hear, thanks.
Such a great example!
Pri Figueiredo I was thinking exactly the same thing!
I can't get enough how positive his attitude is. I enjoy seeing his successes and struggles. Makes it more relatable, I learn more this way.
3 down votes already - I have an image of someone (maybe 3 people) so intensely jealous that they've subscribed just to get in early and dislike his videos. Even if I didn't like photography, I'd still enjoy watching these videos.
+1 on that comment
I too find it hard to believe that anyone could give a thumbs down on this guy!
S. Mansell I'm not a great big fan of photography, just come here for the positivity ☺️
Beware of Trolls....they lurk in the depths of the inter web
It may have been the crocs at the end
Thomas, i love it when you get carried away, running towards the camera, i watched it over and over again!
That's what Landscape -Adventure photography is all about! Love that feeling!
Only an idiot would thumbs down a video with such beautiful views and a host that stays so positive.
I had to play that bit again when you saw the sunlight on the mountains. Photography is like being in love.
I'm a simple man. I see Thomas's video, I click !
You about brought a tear to my eye... I could feel the excitement you had, when you got your tiny window of light. It's those moments as photographers, that we live for!!
The joy you can see as Thomas gets the shot made my day. Wonderful
Never ceases to amaze me how quickly conditions and lighting changes when you have a spot of elevation under you! You really were rewarded at sunrise Thomas, well done!
I love love love when the weather changes and everything happens!
That moment when the light hits the mountain and the excitement you feel is so relatable and genuine. I think those fleeting moments are what makes photography so addicting and you instantly forget all the other times you've been skunked by bad conditions. Cheers from Canada, cant wait for the next video!
I apologize in advance for those who gave a thumbs down... likely not artists.... this adventure presentation was filled with passion that came across, thee joy of capturing that moment...and plenty of thought / application detail laid out. The audio was spot on and well leveled in. Thank you getting up and out there..then sharing the rewards w us. Keep on traveling to the edge! (Loved the Veronica in motion shots)
loved the excitement and energy you showed when that light hit the mountains, that is what makes you so good and keeps me coming back, pure passion for photography
All the color in that sky! The beautiful mountain! The fantastic snow and the glacier! Fleetingly Magnificent!............Well, at least your beer is level!
YES!!! I've lost count of how many times I've told my friends, "we're HERE, we might as well GET UP! It *could* be good!"
What a gorgeous reward that morning...
Matthew Saville I know!! Notice how I was the only person out. Jonas looked out of the window and decided against it. Gotta be in it to win it.
+Thomas Heaton I feel like your cinematography is improving a lot lately. Not that there was anything wrong with it in the past, just that lately I've thought to myself "hmm, that's quite cinematic".
Thomas, I'm so glad that I found your channel. It really helped me push through the tough patches in my photography. These include a shot that just never shows up unless I have no time to stop, accidentally switching to JPG instead of RAW, Smoke filling the Grand Canyon and blocking the stars, and being unable to take pictures at Arches National Park in Utah. Through it all, I just remind myself to enjoy the moment and to keep on attacking new challenges. Thank you so much.
Started watching your channel several months ago. You just kept inspiring me to go out and never give up on a bad weather. Now watching your video as soon as they come out is a must. Keep up the good work.
Oh, it's so beautiful. A scenery to die for.
I love photographing in the mountains. I spent the winter in the French Alps and I was up for work most mornings before the sun rose, the alpenglow, that first bit of sunrise, on the peaks was beautiful.
Amazing to see your joy when the light hit. So cool.
Background music from 12:15 is lovely completely matching the beauty and environment there.
I love the feeling you give the viewers in the beginning!!! Subtle music and great views. It gives me goose bumps! Keep up the good work!
Your excitement when you saw that light in the peak was contagious
Major props for the awesome photo
That silhouette in front of the misty mountains before the sunrise blows off my mind. Perfect. Stunning. Gorgeous. Thank you Thom for your videos!
Love the light celebration moment the best, its what every landscape photographer looks forward to and remembers long afterwards...keep them up Thomas
I love mornings high in the mountains too! Nothing beats sunrise in mountains ;-)
Thomas, don't take any notice of the negative ones, keep doing what you're doing pal, you're good at it!
I love that enthusiastic reaction at 2:00!! like being a kid again. Thank you for all your amazing videos!
Nothing better than getting out when the odds are against you, and then capture an amazing moment! Looked like a wonderful trip. Congrats on the images.
In absolute awe... this is the location and experience that should have been part of your pilot tv show... We felt your emotion when the peaks were licked by pink sun light... looking forward to sharing a composition with you on day... modern day Ansel Adams...
One of your best! The pic of Veronica "floating" in front of the glacier is outstanding and the music at the second hut it perfect.
Nothing like the mountains 😍
Absolutely bloody brilliant what a place to be magical can't wait for part 3
Your excitement is contageous. Lovely to see that I am not the only one when I get it.
The 'absolutely stunning' catchphrase is back!
Beer on the tripod... an awesome perk of photography indeed!
Hi Thomas I just want you to know what an incredible inspiration you are for me. I am quite heavenly sick and have a bad handicap. My spine is messed up from the bottom till my neck.. I spend most of my time in pain and can't take all the pictures I would like to and go to places I would love to go to.. A lot of times you are my eyes and it inspires me to not give up on my dream to take pictures like you do.. So thank you for making my life a little more worth living.. It's not always easy to stay focused if you always live with cronical pain.
Thank you so much for your videos and just being yourself. Ricky from Bremerhaven Germany
You have one of the very best instructional, and watchable videos. I learn every day.
Thomas, this just gets better and better, thank you for sharing.
Absolutely STUNNING! These videos on the Alps will be phenomenal!
Fun. Fun. Fun. Breathtaking.
Cheers mate! "You got to be in it to win it" makes my day.
The 1st image with the beautiful orange light on the mountain peaks is breathtaking!! The action shot of your guide running with the beautiful background is the type of image that shows your diversity. Outstanding video as always!
The fiddle music and filming the lonely tripod was brilliant. :)
2:00 when you know its going to be a good photo :)
hey thomas, thats why you are my favourite photographer and number one i have ever seen,million times thanks to you, your videos feel me like i would love to be ...
Those mountain huts are unreal!
ABSOLOOTLY STUNIN! Mr. Heaton, your best show yet. What a magical location! I am in awe.
Tripod all set, Thomas killing time inside the hut and waiting for magic to happen... but the anticlimax was the beer bottle where the camera should have been!
A beer bottle isn't always an anticlimax :-)
Holy Cow, what an fantastic early morning photo!!
Thomas, great to see your dogged determination pay off (again!) superb.
You said it..... Absolutely gorgeous! ❤️
I love sunrises, because of your inspiration I see them. Waiting for my filters now, backordered.
The enthousiasm and passion in this video is Just beyond!
Very lovely Thomas ❤️
The second picture is such perfect Tom, love it. Also the first one is simply stunning. Beautiful video 👍🏻
Love love love the yay moment when your arms go up! Sheer joy & excitement right there! Stunning image and so very different to the one from the night before which was all moody 👌
Inspiring video. I like your sountrack music when you waiting for the sunset.
What a delight to see such genuine enthusiasm. I can see why though. That light hitting the mountain peaks is to die for. Another good one Thomas.
And my next adventure with my wife is planned. Absolutely stunning!
Love the scenery of you hiking around, giving me wanderlust!
I'd love to know what the reasons why 17 people gave this the thumbs down. Thomas this had all the ingredients of a classic video, the location, the images, the music and your commentary all add to this journey you take us on and inspire us to seize the moment and enjoy life each and every day.
So glad the light turned out for you at the glacier hut! The mountains are awesome.
Really look forward to your videos Thomas. Thanks again.
You are such an inspiration.
I've been watching your videos for quite a while, but I've never commented.
As a hobby only, I used to do a lot of film photography, but the switch from film to digital was difficult for me, and I eventually gave up. Previously, in the beginning, I used Petri cameras and lenses, then I switched to a Nikon N2000 and N2020. I tried to switch to digital with a Nikon D100. I still have all my equipment, and my Nikon lenses all work on the D100. So, I've begun to get everything out of storage, and possibly give it another try.
You may be able to judge my age via my camera choice in the beginning. The Petri's were Viet Nam era cameras, and at one point in my life I totally wanted to be a photojournalist.
Now, for me, landscape photography is where it's at, although at my age, and after three heart attacks, I doubt a trek like that would be possible.
Thank you so much for the fantastic videos and for all the inspiration. If I can't actually do it, I can, vicariously, through them.

The sunrise on the glacier was spectacular. It's all about being in the right place at the right time. For me, it was reminiscent of Ansel Adams' (my favorite photographer) Moonrise, Hernandez, New Mexico.
One word to summarise the video - "wow!"
So happy for you Thomas, that first shot is a ripper. What an experience.
So happy for you that you got a beautiful image with sun shining on mountain top! Just gorgeous photo. Enjoy the high mountain trekking.
Your enthusiasm is awesome and inspiring! Thank you!
I watch your videos every Saturday morning.
I love how excited you got, I'm the same way
Heaton is my Spirit Animal.
What a stunning location! Obviously those who voted thumbs down live in Nirvana!🤔
The look on your face when the sunlight clipped the mountain top was priceless!
It looks like a pretty brutal hike but the destination is worth the pain. Thanks very much for sharing with us Tom. Keep the faith and take care.🍀👌
Watching your videos brings so much pleasure. You are such an inspiration and a gifted presenter. I discovered your channel a few weeks age and have been binge watching ever since. I’ve not tried landscapes before but your videos have re-ignited my passion for being creative. It’s time to dig out my old 0.9 ND and start learning. Cheers
Hey Thomas, I've learned so much from watching your videos the past few weeks. You've really motivated me to get out and explore new places. It's also bettered my photography a ton, seeing how you plan through your photos has rubbed off on me and I started to get some better images as well! I'm still far from your skill level, but with the help of these videos I improve a little everyday. Thanks for doing what you do Tom! Cheers :)
Now I understand the expression 'eyes lke p*** holes in the snow'! Another great, inspirational video.
Epic Image - love the contrasting light on the snowy mountain - !!
At 2:10, you got so excited about the light I was expecting you to forget to take a shot!
Superb video. Great photography, videography, music, dialogue and info.
When I saw that light, I was watching Heaton on a breakaway to win the Stanley Cup... don’t come towards us… shoot, shoot... SCORE! We all won today. I feel good.
Such a great video, Love the excitement you shared when the sun hit the mountains. I felt it for you when something you want to capture happens that you have no control over. Best feeling ever. Keep the great content flowing....
This glacier shot is probably my favorite shot of yours! That leading line and sharp blue/orange contrast really resonates with me! Keep up the great work, it's nice to see how far you've come from the beginning episodes!
Wow. I can't wait for the next video! If I had only one TH-cam subscription I could watch (a desert island subscription if you will), it would be you hands down.
Fantastic location and that morning was glorious. Excellent job as usual, Thomas.
11:01 I like how you pointed towards your potential subject with your tripod, and then at the end you're holding beer instead. Good stuff as always!
Those 2 photographs were amazing. Being in the right place at the right time is important but you sir also have a great sense of composition. Keep the videos coming! I always learn something and thanks for sharing.
Just love your excitement when the light hits just right. It's contagious. ;-)
Stunning scenery Thomas. Thanks for sharing.
Great video Thomas and amazing scenery. Loved your excitement at 2:00 as the mountains lit up.
I'm really enjoying this mountain series. I spent some time last fall in the Canadian Rockies and was often overwhelmed by the big vistas and finding my composition. I've made some notes from your videos and can't wait to go back and apply what I've learned from watching your channel.
Hi Thomas this is my favorite video of yours! The early mountain light over the glacier was just excellent! and nothing like a bit of sport photography in an epic landscape. I really think that what makes a great outdoor/extreme sports photo is not the action but how it fits in with the landscape and you nailed that one!
Cant wait for the next one!
Wow, that pink light on the mountain! What a perfect image and perfect timing too! Looks amazing in those mountains.
thank you for every video you have made! You probably hear it all the time, but you are aw inspiring mate.
You're probably my favourite youtubera long with Casey, but today, Id like to thank Squarespace for helping Thomas out.
Another great video Thomas, your passion for the great outdoors and landscape photography is truly infectious and one of the reasons I started getting back into photography myself after a long absence. Please continue making more of these as I'm sure you are a inspiration and motivation to others as you are to me.May thanks.
Loved the intro music. Thank you Thomas!
A fantastic video Thomas, and OMG photos to boot. Thanks buddy. Tony
Brilliant mate just love your enthusiasm number one photographer in my book on you tube thank you 2 videos mid week very happy
