Vancouver Island is the best for magical fog! Except for those weird days when it's completely clear in the places we least expect it. 😂😂 Tofino/Ucluelet always do that to me, hahaha. Still magical though, always. 😊 Amen to
Adam, another lovely submission from your island paradise. Hopefully you and Paul were on a recon for additional workshop opportunities as well. Cheers to both of you!
For battery charging, I now have a couple of batteries that can be charged directly from USB-C so I can use any powerbank to charge my camera batteries, and other devices. Of course, the nice thing about your device is that it encloses the batteries, so it's fewer fiddly wires.
Thanks for the videos Adam. I've been a fan for years. Just saw my first Arbutus trees on a recent trip to the California-Oregon border area. I can see why you photograph them! Fabulous trees that really pop in the rain. The bark is spectacular as you know. Sadly, I couldn't stop in the rain, but a few days later I took some pics in the harsh sun and even those were decent. Thanks for the channel. Cheers.
another awesome vlog, Adam. I have been to Ucuelet many times. Woken up before the sun and used a headlamp to guide me to that part of the trail. Kind of scary alone. Since 2016 I've been a fan of your channel and your photos. Thanks for everything.
You might want to get your butt down to the French Creek Estuary not on the marina side but the opposite side (directions to follow). The salmon are running and the harbour seals are coming in and jumping and diving for the fish. Quite dramatic with sometimes 4 or 5 jumping roughly at the same time. Yesterday I got a shot of two playing salmon tug of war to see who would get the salmon. Eagles will walk the shores. I have been going roughly around 1:00 PM when the tide is fully in, the seals swim further up the river. Directions: Cross the stinky bridge just past the turn off for the marina, take the first right after the bridge, roughly one hundred yards (if you take the left instead you end up at Windsor Plywood), drive down the road till it T's, take a right on this road that dead ends in a circle. Once you are in the circle you will see a dirt road going off to your left, drive on it, many deep potholes, and park at the overlooking river area.
Nice journey. Loved the ones of the trees in the mist. You read my mind on the photo @ 14:30. I was thinking, "What might that look like in B&W, and there it was!" Safe travels!
about time Adam is plugging a product =) ..Very nice tempo on todays video. It felt very natural and I really felt it on the waterfall. I've got some of those myself. One time there was an amazing shot. after that, the conditions nor the weather have been enough to bother capturing anything there. But I seem to keep hoping. But I wonder why are you looking at FullFrame for hiking, when you really want MFT, you know. Olympus. Talk with Henry Turner, Adam. You are going to be amazed.
Thanks Adam. Great video as usual. I spend a lot of time in the wilderness too. The weirdest human interaction I had was coming across 5 or 6 people dressed in what can only be described as green rags stitched together, circling a tree holding hands and chanting and wailing. It was in the middle of nowhere. When they saw me, they went silent and just stared at me with angry and annoyed expressions on their faces. Really creeped me out as I watched Blair Witch Project just before that happened. I tipped my had and said 'Afternoon' and got out of there quickly. Was tempted to ask for a photo, but thought the better of it. I would have preferred a bear.
Stunning video as always. Would be very interested to hear your thoughts on the canon vs the Fujifilm. You should check out the Nikon z system, as I think they are more like the Fujifilm in terms of colours.
Love this area and you have captured some wonderful photos and video! Btw your vlogging done on an OP3? Nicely done regardless. As for your point about wildlife; I spend a lot of time hiking or backpacking alone in the mountains or forest and rarely every ‘worry’ about wildlife (but always respectful and aware’, but more more concerned about ‘people/yahoos”. Usually the closer I am to a large city the greater the awareness and concern!
How do you like the Shimoda Urban Explorer? I picked up the 25L bag three months ago to use locally and like it. It holds my camera, three lenses, filters, and a few other odds n ends. The bigger the bag, the more I pack into it. Once again, another great video and some wonderful images!
What'd you think about that 24-240? I've been eyeing it for a while and not made the decision yet. It seems to pass technical reviews okay but that's not the same as actually using it. Love that second image with the leaning tree. The subframing with a dash of color in the back is spot on.
Seems okay. I didn’t really have a chance to use it much but I do like the range it offers. The sharpness etc seems great. I didn’t have a chance to try it out at every focal length
It was calm. Generally if you keep an eye on the weather out there you can easily predict wave action. This past week would have been good out there I would imagine
Well Adam you have some very nice clean shots with that Cannon but if you're looking for something for a one lens and one camera you might want to veer off the cannon side unless of course you can get the lens for it and go over to the Nikon which one I don't remember but the lens is a 28 wide and for the zoom which is part of this lens which goes up to 400 mm so you have a 28mm WA-400mm zoom from Nikon and if memory serves me correctly and which it might and may not It also has a very good weather sealing built into it You might want to give that a try
@QuietLightPhoto No problem Adam Hope you can find the lens and camera for your camping trips As for me next year I will be purchasing the 18-270 for my Pentax k70 that lens will actually live on that camera it will not be taken off
@QuietLightPhoto Now if they made a lens adapter for that 28-400 so I could use it with my Pentax K1 Mark II or my k-70 I would buy that lens and adapter
just a thought Do you really need to change system for hiking?, R6 + 24-240mm = 1420g, GFX100s +50mm f/3,5 + 100-200mm =2300 g that is 900 g heavier, just do pano with the 50mm, no problem to cover 24mm I'm using gfx 100s and 50mm myself,

"I'm more worried about weirdos than wildlife." That should be a t-shirt! 😆
Hmm I might go for that
@@QuietLightPhoto I'll buy one!
In Australia too, despite our wildlife's reputation!
I’d buy one. It’s true. 😬
Exactly, it's the 2-legged beasts I look out for, not the 4-legged ones.
I would have thought that first image to “busy” but it really worked out!

Totally agree!
Beautiful shots on Vancouver Island, great natural scenery, nice video my friend. 20:04.
Many thanks!

Cool seeing the two of you out shooting. Love seeing the beautiful area through your eyes. Keep it going!
Adam really like when you show before and after of your photos. Keep up the good work!
Thanks! Will do!
Thanks!
Thanks, Bobby!
Thanks for the great video Adam, lovely location, love the gnarly trees.
Glad you enjoyed it
Don't much about the lens but you can't go wrong with the canon r6 2 it is a great camera body eric hansen thanks for the great video
Brilliant video Adam and beautiful photos and lovely location. Thank you for sharing your video
Many thanks!
Such a stunning place you live Adam. One day I'll get there.
It is a lovely place for sure

Thanks for the update. Unfortunately I’m in the UK for the next few weeks.
The “rain forest” island of Vancouver is quite mystical.
It is indeed
I love the beautiful foggy forest shots! Thanks for sharing!
You bet!
Just ordered land and light can’t wait to get it ❤
Excellent, thanks!
Picked up the 500mm a few months back - it’s an incredible lens. Tempted to sell off the 100-200 & 1.4x
Great!
Thank you ever so much again, Adam, for an entertaining video and really nice shots! Kind regards, Martin
Our pleasure!

Cool video. I have a shot of the loop in the gnarly tree with my son sat on it from our first trip to Van Isle in 2013. Great memories!
Nice!

Hey, you’re cooking my tortellini!! lol
Lovely video. Always love your mossy trees 🌳🌲🏝️
Hmmm, tortellini 🤤
Your videos are a real pleasure to watch…thank you!👍👍👍
So nice of you

Yep that sounds about right, weirdos 😂
Enjoy
Enjoyed your video thanks for posting 👍
You bet!
Lovely video and beautiful shots Adam!
Happy to say I just got a notification that your book has arrived at the post office. Can't wait to see it !
Awesome, thank you!
I'm the same, always more concerned with people than wildlife. really like the fog at 9:04
Thanks Brian!
Interesting about the directional changes in the waterfall. Maybe the "weirdos" caused it! HA!! Loved the assortment in this one.
Bloody weirdos😆
Great photos Adam.
Thanks James!
Perhaps the river bed has lowered around the boulder due to erosion; thats why it does now not flow over the rock !
I suspect so or perhaps the area was dammed by debris
Nice one again Adam. Im using Nikon Z and the 24-200 is a great lightweight allround lens for hiking.
Good choice!
Great video again🐉🌷🍓👍😀🇫🇮!!!
Glad you enjoyed it
@QuietLightPhoto Have a nice Day sir. 👍😀 In Finland we go to sleep.
4:22 I liked the raw file more 😊
Oh well can’t win em all

Yes I use the pocket 3 it’s convenient more than anything.

Thanks Dennis. It a nice bag, reserved for fancy cameras🤣
Thanks... checked out the power bank.... only $136 cdn but better with a discount code :-)

Nice video! I want to go to Ucluelet in January to shoot the huge waves. How were the waves when you were there?
It was calm. Generally if you keep an eye on the weather out there you can easily predict wave action. This past week would have been good out there I would imagine
@@QuietLightPhoto Yeah! Hopefully I'll get some big ones hehe. ✌Cheers!
👍👍🌷🌷❤❤🌹🌹👌👌😊😊
What did you think about the R6?
I did t use it that much but it seemed to be a solid camera, lots of good features
Well Adam you have some very nice clean shots with that Cannon but if you're looking for something for a one lens and one camera you might want to veer off the cannon side unless of course you can get the lens for it and go over to the Nikon which one I don't remember but the lens is a 28 wide and for the zoom which is part of this lens which goes up to 400 mm so you have a 28mm WA-400mm zoom from Nikon and if memory serves me correctly and which it might and may not It also has a very good weather sealing built into it You might want to give that a try

Do you really need to change system for hiking?, R6 + 24-240mm = 1420g,
GFX100s +50mm f/3,5 + 100-200mm =2300 g that is 900 g heavier, just do pano with the 50mm, no problem to cover 24mm
I'm using gfx 100s and 50mm myself,
Every gram counts.
Enjoy your videos but you really need to start being more conscious of how many tomes you say "ah'. It becomes quite annoying and hard to listen to.
I’ll try to keep that in mind with all of the other annoyances people object to. It’s hard to keep track.
@@QuietLightPhoto lol
Comparing the photos of the boulder, I’d say it has been moved by water flow and erosion.
