Really glad it was helpful!

Thanks a lot!

Not when we were there, but it must depend on the time of day. It is only accessible once per year for non Chase Sapphire members, so there is a limit. Never been to the Capitol One lounge.

The mossy forest is very near the trailhead, max 1 mile, I believe, probably less.

Recorded on October 6 two years ago. There may still be some foliage left, just depends on the weather this week.

Thanks!

Haha, it depends on the gimbal and it takes some time to learn how to use it. We also had somewhat shaky footage at first, but learned on our mistakes and since then the footage has been incomparable to handheld.

Great, you are very welcome! There is an even faster way to embed keywords with free Exiftool (this is what we do): ruclips.net/video/Q6zBPBZQxwk/видео.html (windows) and ruclips.net/video/5NnVwvfl3r8/видео.html (ios)

Did it work ? Tried it and to no avail

The road was fine, local governments take care of icy roads for the most part there. But, we also did not have much snow either. I guess we were lucky.

I plan to visit 15-25 April 2025

Yes, the economy car we rented was more than enough for two of us.

@@BlokhinFilms what about gravel Roads? On the ring road there are many of these?

There are a few patches on ring road, but they are drivable. Of course, if you plan on taking side roads to drive up to certain landmarks, it could be rough. But the ring road itself is not an issue.

Thanks for watching. Well, it all comes down to preferences. Micro four-thirds do provide great video quality and are fairly compact. I am a bit biased towards full-frame cameras though, like fx3. They have many bells and whistles that can make video recording a great experience. Also, full-frame sensors generally speaking have a better performance, especially in low-light situations. Maybe, the difference won't be that much noticeable, but it can be. And of course full frame cameras are more expensive. It is a personal decision. I personally would go with full-frame, but one can argue that four-thirds could be good enough for starters and stock videos, which don't demand the highest quality possible. We still own and shoot videos with nikon full frame dslr 8-bit recording. I have to work around its shortcomings, but the stock video quality is decent enough.

Oh, congrats!

It's a ski resort, of course.

We only deleted the adsense account. We did not have the ads associated with it. So, don't know the answer.

@@BlokhinFilms thank you for your reply!!

I read that these keywords are treated differently. Same with theater vs theatre. I guess we should include both and sometimes we do, if that keyword is very important for the photo (or video).

Thank you for the kind words. Hope you enjoy your trip!

Where else did you go?

I think it is doable, just depends on which videos you watch and if they cover all necessary areas on the test.

Yeah it is interesting that all these lounges are so different! Thanks for your comment. It would be interesting to check out that lounge in London one day!

It depends if you are used to cold. It was hovering around 0C, which was not too cold for us.

We don't use csv for Getty, so I don't have a usable template I can send you. Instead, we embed keywords into files with exiftool. But, when you use their template, do you submit it through DeepMeta or their website (I used DeepMeta in the video)? Do you use the exact names I show at 4:57? They should be all lowercase. If this does not work, then something has changed since I made this video and I don't know what that is.

@@BlokhinFilms OK. It didn't work at Deepmeta and on the website. I've been trying around all day today. Now I've managed it somehow. It was the coding. Getty wants to require ANSI during shutter & Adobe "UTF-8 with BOM". It's a shame that the 3 stock agencies don't want to read the IPTC data from videos. I do the work and label all my images & videos with Adobe Bridge. The IPTC data is adopted for the images. Just not with the videos. So I get my IPTC data into a CSV via Exiftool GUI and then edit it for upload.

Yeah, it is weird with videos and IPTC data. We also use csv for video files. If you know how to program in Python, it is very easy to modify your column name from the master file in one click to suit each stock agency.

You must engage in business activity, put in hours of work, keep accounting records and overall intend to generate enough income to cover lens cost down the road. Then yes. Typically, you depreciate your lens cost over 5 years. You may have a problem if you expense the lens with no revenue and work put in year after year. Probably. Dont know for sure. This is absolutely NOT tax advice.

Wow! Hope it works great for you!

@@BlokhinFilms noticing recently raft loads of immigrants being dropped off on a few different beaches there in Ikaria

😱😱😱 from where, and are there a lot?

@@BlokhinFilms Sky News is reporting they are Afghani and Palestinian via Turkey. Looks to be about 15 per raft load, all young men. History says they are just passing through to get to the mainland or one of the Islands that have authorities for immigrants. Looked rather alarming when I first seen it but apparently in 2015 there was about 1,000,000 immigrants fleeing to Greece via the Islands mostly trying to get to the EU. All I could tell was that they were very dark skinned.

Thanks for the info. Looks like modern day pirates 😅

Glad you found it useful!

That's good to know! Especially if it doesn't rain, it's not so bad. Thanks for your comment.

The main roads are great and the smaller ones may be a bit less maintained. There are a few roads that aren't so great, but we still saw people driving on them. We will have a video up tomorrow showing the road to Trapalou Beach from Karkinagri that we hiked, and it didn't look great for driving, yet there were locals and visitors driving on it. Basically, it depends on where you are going to drive. Hope this helps.

@@BlokhinFilms hello and thanks for your video and reply. I will be staying in the centre, the town of Droutsoulas in the mountains at around 450m above sea level, so from there I reach everywhere. And what about mobile connectivity? Is it OK to go around using 4/5G google maps for instance?

That sounds really nice! Yeah, in the mountains especially, you should have good connectivity. We had no issues with the 4G, it also depends on where you are located, but when driving, it is no problem and finds a signal. It is always good to download an offline map just in case, though.

@@BlokhinFilms yes actually i thought about the offline map just in case :) thanks a lot for your help

No problem, hope you have a wonderful trip!!!

Hey there, I don't think there is a problem with using these as keywords. They are common words, so they should be good for both commercial and editorial. But, words like macys or Nike are a different matter. Those are okay for editorial, but not commercial. It all depends on the context. But, even if you make a mistake, I don't think they will immediately suspend your account. They will likely just reject your images for trademark words. Unless you repeatedly do the same mistake and Adobe notices your intention to do so, they can then suspend your account.

Very welcome! Glad it helped you.

Hey there, was it RUclips support or Adsense who told you to wait 90 days? How did you contact them? Did they tell why you have to wait 90 days? Do you have any suspicions why they are not approving your account (I don't know your personal situation)?

@@BlokhinFilms RUclips support like in the video, they said once an account is denied, it will automatically be denied again for 90 days, despite being able to re-apply

That is strange. As if something will change in 90 days. Did they tell you the reason why it was denied?

@@BlokhinFilms They said they can only see the result because they are not part of the adsense team, but that there is an internal mechanism which stops me from being accepted if i apply twice in a 90 day period

Have you asked for help, like creating a ticket for you to figure out the reason for denial?
