Bringing Harvest Home. A journey through Harvest 2022 in the Lincolnshire Fens.
Join me as I take you through Harvest 2022 on our farm with drone footage and photos galore. I have gone through over 4 hours of video footage and nearly 200 photos to narrow it down to just under 40 minutes of edited video and I am sure you will love every minute, but if you are short on time I have broken the video down into chapters for quick navigation.
It was a record breaking harvest for us this year despite the really dry hot weather in 2022 and we had some lovely conditions and awesome sunsets that you will see in this video, with a little bit of local insight and a village show to boot.
Harvest on any farm is pretty hectic at the best of times and filming and photographing this one...

Misty Mam Tor and the late sunrise. And I finally use my Nikon Z 100-400mm f4.5-5.6 VR S lens!
Просмотров 2672 года назад
Join me @peternickols on another photography escapade, where I go deep into the Peak District National Park in search of a winter sunrise. First I have to find my way in the dark, fog and frost to get to my ideal photo spot. Can I find my way in the dark, will my pathetic lungs enable me to actually climb that hill or will I slip up on the frosty stone path never to be seen again. I start talki...
Using the Nikon Z24-120mm f4 on the best coastal sunrise I have ever seen.
Просмотров 19 тыс.2 года назад
Come with me as I use my new, take everywhere lens the Nikon Z24-120mm f4 S for the first time. I experience what must be the best sunrise I have ever seen, with some glorious colours and atmosphere created at this most special time of the day by the rising sun on a perfectly still day. But do I manage to get the photos I want? Do I get there in time to get the best conditions? Can you make any...
Woodland Photography in the winter : is fog a necessity for good photos?
Просмотров 1772 года назад
In this video I go to a local woodland on a cold foggy morning, where the conditions where ideal to create some separation in the trees, keep your eyes peeled for the wildlife and some unusual sounds in the vicinity. Check out my channel for other videos and feel free to take a peek at my website at peternickolsphotography.com to see my portfolio, blog posts and the chance to purchase a print o...
A Winters day on Chrome Hill, Heavy snow (and I lose some kit!)

Join me on a cold winters day on Chrome Hill and Hitter Hill in the Peak District. The weather was a bit rough at the start of the day, but that created some great conditions for some wonderful photos and I had a fantastic time there. You will see some great views of the surrounding area and I even get some feeling back in my fingers later in the day. This is my first video, and I encountered a...

      If I need to yes, but if remember correctly all the photos were taken only using one image. The dynamic range on these cameras is good. 😊

    Great shots! I'm wondering because i wanna go mirrorless and coming from my D750. Why do you pick the Z7 II over the Z6 II? Is it because you need the higher Megapixels?

    • @peternickols2687
      @peternickols2687 Год назад

      I did own the Z6 for just over a year, but went to the Z7ii as you said for the higher megapixels. This means I can crop in and yet still be able to produce large prints. Also the Z7ii had two card slots as I like the reassurance for data security. And most of all, thanks for watching the video and I am pleased you liked the photos. 🙏

      Pleased you liked it Joe, I couldn't have got much more JD product in if I tried. The video was only really possible due to a relatively easy harvest giving me the time do it. You could have been in it, but I didn't want to film you at work!!

    Hello and thank you for the video. For the image that you showed of the beach houses, where did you focus? Was it a focus stacked image? I truly liked that image! Thank you!

    • @peternickols2687
      @peternickols2687 2 года назад

      Hi David, many thanks for the generous comments. The beach hut photo was one image and I focused approx one third up the image, just right of centre. I did try multiple focus points and considered a focus stack but found this one to be just right for the focus throughout the image. Just a little tip…. When you use the play button on your camera there will be a reference somewhere as to where you focused. Use this in conjunction with your saved images in Lightroom (or whatever software you use) and you will then be able to cross reference each image to find out exactly what focus point produced to best focus throughout the image. You can then remember this for future compositions and focusing. 👍

      Yes Justin you are spot on there, I seem to have not been overly clear in the video. I don’t know how much I would use it if it was available whilst taking photos, it’s just a shame it is not an option available to us. Maybe one day. 👍
