Not dying is a great concern when taking pictures :)
Great video as usual, love it jokes n skits, no drama filter lmao.
But what's with the sound quality on this video? not up to your usual standard.
@@ChrisNewham I'd say the wind would blow the ceann off ya up there!
Smartness is important in a relationship and cyberhackinggenius helped cloned my husband’s phone and I got access to all his dealings both on phone and social media without touching his phone. All I did was share my husband’s phone number with cyberhackinggenius and I was able to read both his new and deleted messages from my phone without having to touch his phone. My husband was a cheating Narcissist and I’m glad to find out all his secrets and infidelity with the help of cyberhackinggenius. I’m here in UK and able to access my husband’s phone messages with a link on my phone even while he was away in Canada cheating on me. I got to discover that my husband who is legally married to me here in UK is also recently married to another woman in Canada and I’m finally going through a divorce with lots of evidence against him. I read all his Whatsapp, Facebook,Skype,Instagram and Snapchat messages Including the deleted text and recent messages. You can contact this great Hacker Gavin via Gmail (cyberhackinggenius) or text and speak to him directly on his phone and WhatsApp : +19256795146 and don’t forget to thank me later.
You guys are hilarious!!! I love that you’ve brought your dry British sense of humour to photography and don’t take yourselves too seriously. Love it!
Sorry to be off topic but does anyone know a way to log back into an Instagram account..?
I somehow forgot the password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me!
@Zakai Darwin Instablaster ;)
My missus heard your voice and said “is that the funny one that falls over” 😂😂...I love your videos man,learning all the Tim.Than you 👍🏻👍🏻
hahahahah. I haven't fallen in a while.
@@fototripper well, if you want us to keep watching.......... ;)
Winter is approaching, then be time to fit the crampons to the flipflops!!
@@jefffiles9209 safety first
It's funny to see that a youtuber, whom I've been following for some time, making a video from my home island. Great photos. Your pronounciation of Suðuroy was perfect.
Thanks Peter. I actually looked it up to make sure I got it right ;)
Seriously don't know how your subscriptions isn't way higher. Not only are your videos gorgeous but the comedic factor alone is worth subscribing for. A trip with you and grumpy is definitely on my bucket list. Thank you for all you share with us and keeping us entertained.
Your two workshop attendees are so lucky to have the two of you to themselves! Just loving Adam and your videos, can't wait till they come out every week.
Once you find that shot, it is always worth it to get such an amazing shot. My problem would be sitting still. I'd be taking sheep portraits, bird shots, all over the place!
Great advice guys. When my brother complained that Nikon had changed to the Z mount and he couldn't use those lenses. No worries I said, just press "WB" and keep on shooting. Works everytime.
This video is not sponsored by anyone...I am always impressed that you pros check out places hours ahead of time to get shots. Very carefully.
I actually like the brighter "Homer Simpson credits clouds" scene more than either of the two shots, but wow what a great scene!
I am also an epic overhang/cliff photographer. Unfortunately I'm afraid of heights, so I havnt taken any photographs.
@13:31 love that shot, the light, the detail, the seabirds, you really brought it to life with that image. Such majestic cliffs. Love your work. Thank you for another awesome vlog. 😊
Sheep cake!!! LOL I have to do a workshop with you and Uncle Grumps. Your images are stunning but your humor rivals them!
Yes, it was worth it! That stripey light really worked. Magic.
WB Why Bother!! Love it! Hilarious! Love the second image with the stripy light.
Classic!!, Fantastic, how you introduce humour to your photography, while maintaining, the highest quality images. A breath of fresh air!
Both are great landscapes. I like the raincloud, it’ a little dramatic for me. Thnx
Wow! You had my knees feeling woozy with that vertiginous view there! No kidding that a bit of sheep pudding might be your nemesis on those cliffs.
I prefer the image with the rain cloud: it adds a bit of drama to the image and shows a glimpse of what to expect in the Faroes.
hahahaha sheep pudding eh?
The second shot does it for me Gavin. The seagull makes it 😎.
I'm even a lazier photographer than you are. I'm in bed watching this Vlog on my iPad 😂😂😂👍
Excellent shots!! And I’m sorry but on all the ones you want to know which I prefer I always love them all!! Just like a well orchestrated concert 🎵 You are very talented! ❤
I'm working on my vertigo so I can walk with the sheep along the edges of the cliffs. Love the "stripey" light!
Yes, shot at 11.36 is fantastic ! You could cover your camera from rain using a dry bag.
Loving the dual-view vlogging at 08:42 - good rocket-work! Class images too - 100% worth it (for you to do it that is) :D I prefer the second one but both are epic!
Stunning scenery! Great images! And absolutely hilarious course in camera usage! Gotta get me some 'no drama' filters! And I would like to learn a bit more about white balance, but why bother.... 😂
Lovely shot Gavin. 100% worth it, stunning scene.
What an amazing place. Has really made me want to visit the Faroes. Must say I prefer (just) the second of the two images. Having said that though, the first is a wonderfiully moody pic. Love the opening :-)
As a new photographer watching you and others on youtube, makes me sad. I don't feel ill ever afford or be able to get to stunning locations like you do. However, what makes your channel so appealing, is that it's fun, entertaining and yet still informative.
Just nick a shower cap from a hotel room bathroom. Perfect for slipping over the camera when it's showery and then no need to take the camera off the tripod
Oh man, talking sheep, that's so Serta mattress commercial! But buried among all that comedy was a real gem: "I'm looking for viewpoints to reveal themselves"!! Now, why didn't I think of that? Equipped with that knowledge, the forecast for my career as a landscape photographer looks bright and sunny, no wait, moody with dappled light..... ah ya know, it's changing all the time!
Was it worth it - hell yes!! WB - why bother, had me in hysterics.
I find a large freezer bag over the camera works well instead of trying to squeeze it between my jacket and a rather generous moob! 😂
Cracking shots Gavin. I think I'm edging on the second one with more light and shadows, but they are both great comps and shots. Thanks for the tutorial on the WB " Why Bother " button. ha! Wondered what that was!!!.
You are not a lazy photographer, you are a photographer of epic light and epic locations. My favourite image was the second one of the two, with yes, you guessed it, your epic light. The little pink flowers you like are what we call here in the U.K. Thrift, Armeria maritime, sometimes also called Sea Pink or Rock Rose. They add the perfect finish to coastal photography here in Devon and Cornwall in May and June, when they are at their best. They probably flower a littler later the further north you go. Anyway, thank you for a great video and ... epic pictures!
I like 'Rock Rose'. I'll try to remember that.
Another "jelly knees" view in this video! I prefer the 1st shot because of the moving rain cloud. You mentioned the small pink flowers in the foreground but it is is the sheep dip that adds the icing to the cake.......(ew, just had a visual). Another video that shows how important patience is the world of Landscape Photography. Thanks
Great video thanks for taking us on your trip
Love the cliff photos
All that entertainment disguises what a brilliant photographer you are, add Mr Grumpy to the mix and you have the dream team. Very different approaches, with equally inspiring images. The Morecome and Wise of photography!
Thanks so much Carolyn :)
Great stuff gents, as always!!
Nice one Gavin, 2nd shot for me. Forget the Floss, the Grump dance will be the next craze.
Not really impressed with the final comp. What's the refund policy on this video?
J/K, another awesome video! I love the strong greens and blues in the scene.
hahahah too late. No refunds on watch time!
Dot Matrix I suggest you watch Uncle Grumpy’s videos. No refund policy required 😜👍
@@matthewhenry6281 nah, his is more strict than mine!
Another great video. Number 2 is obviously far preferable.
Regarding waiting for rain to clear I find covering the camera with a carrier bag and bungying it round the tripod column works for me. That way you don't have to re-compose as long as you don't move the tripod head.
Image is fire Gavin!
Figure the drain on the local power company at consumer (and your) expense, to re-charge your Sony batteries, and you've purchased the Nikon D850's excellent battery life, superior dynamic range, and ultimate image quality. Or, keep on recharging and just chuckle, because you produce awesome images. Love the humor!
too late. I'm locked in!
Great to hear that you like the Quiraing on Skye but of course there is so much more to Skye than the wonderful Quiraing. I'll keep searching for the vid (if you've done one) of Skye. Great craic by the way and love the cheeky sideways glance that comes every now and then, stay safe mate👍😎
Very beautiful landscape, great shoot. Congratulations.
your videos, from the pair of you are improving professionally, with (your) humor and the technical content... this is meant to be a compliment - there were pretty darn good before...really, seriously ....
Great content again.
A tip for you... Get yourself a shower cap (just a crappy cheap one) and when it starts to rain just slip it over the top . It’ll easily cover your Sony with a long lens!
Your welcome 😊
Great shots and nicely processed! And the sheep talk was hilarious! Glad you included the sheep cakes in the foreground for texture and a sense of place. BTW - hahahaha - I kept looking for Catherine in the reflection of your glasses. Sigh. But there was a glimpse of her in Adam's video, so I guess I'll follow him from now on. :)
You totally should!
For me, the second shot is better not only for the light but also the awesome seagull contrasted against the dark rock - marvelous capture :)
Great vid !
P.S. Is Uncle Grumpy ok, he seemed to experience some strange seizures near the end...?
Those were random robotics that he occasionally launches into.
We were on the cliffs a little north of there about a week ago. We didn’t get as dramatic light, but it was my favorite location in the Faroes.
The frisson of danger you feel when trying to avoid falling over the edge to a certain death really adds to the experience :)
oh it's essential ;)
I thought the way you matched your sunglasses with both your jackets was pure class. They go well with your eyes. Cool shades in the photo too :-) x
Fantastic bombastic images Gavin. Absolutely no chance could I have got that close to the edge. I’m afraid I’d have needed plenty of shit tickets on that trip. You see, whenever I go anywhere near a cliff edge my groin says no, no, no, no absolutely not. Why my groin? I think my testicles invert themselves when I sense danger. There is something biblical about those islands. Epic in the extreme. Great tip about keeping your camera at the ready under your jacket while your face gets pummelled by hail wind and rain. The lengths we go to to get the shot. My wife would tell my daughters while waiting in the car for me as I got chased around a field by a bull, tripod and camera in hand, “ This is why women live longer than men”. “Why’s that Mummy”, they’d reply. “Just look at your Father”, she said, as they nodded in agreement.
She is so right.
Ah, dude! Great location 😁 that's the kind of photo I would love to have a go at... If you are up to it of course 😉
Ok let's do this. After all your smack talk let's see if you can walk the walk!
@@fototripper I'll run you walk. I've seen the shape you are in 😉
@@f64Academy Oh it's goin DOWN!
@@fototripper yessssss!!! finally, I'm going to make it onto your channel! My life's goal is complete 😁😁😁
You are so good! Predicting that the sun would fall at the end of the day was amazing! How could you have known...
I recently stumbled upon your channel. I love seeing all the beautiful locations that you visit! I'm not a photographer but I find your travel and photography combo to be so different from what I usually watch and I'm loving it! Looking forward to watching more! Sending "likes" your way!
The second image for me. I also came to the exact same conclusion about dramatic outlooks yesterday. After several hours of hiking through an old growth forest attempting to find compositions I then went to the coast and shot dozens of images with vast vistas and dramatic skies. Yep lazy photography is where it’s at. For those of you wondering why Gavin has taped up the Sony logo, I think it’s to get his comments count up...
Great video, sorry that your camera isn't weather sealed. I have had my Pentax K1 out in much worse conditions and the problem was keeping the front of the lens free of water spots.
Definitely like the 2nd shot. Love the stripey light. And I didn't like the cloud dipping into the sky on the right upper corner of the first shot.
Hilarious, as usual... Marvellous! And, the best video editing in the industry of landscape photography vlogging!
This has quickly become my favorite RUclips channel. Keep it up and great work!
Good little timelapse Gavin. Great composition, the more I view the images the more I see & like. Like the type of light in #2.
Had to watch from a distance as vertigo was kicking in. Stellar effort with wonderful images.
Love that band of rain coming in.
That guy on the right in the intro', says nothing yet still manages to say it all 😂
Oh, about the photography, very nice images. Especially so pushing the limits of all that's holy in landscape photography and shooting at 19mm 🙂
Another brilliant video Gavin hats off to your humour and video editing love it👍 loving the stripey light image 🙏🙏
Still pmsl at the no drama filter and why bother camera setting brilliant 😂😂
"nestled in my considerable bosom"… not a phrase one expects to hear in your average RUclips photography vid 😂😂
Juicy giblets!! Beautiful place. I like the 2nd image the best. Love the contrast between the light streaks on the ground and the shadows the lumpylicious ground creates.
If I may make a suggestion, when asking us to choose between one photo and another, place them side by side, or show them one after the other. Food for thought, or not.
Oh, and FYI, throw in a cheap hotel shower cap in your bag for when it rains. Easier than taking the camera off and putting in inside your ample bosom. Unless you like it there. :) Great video, thanks for taking us along to the Faroe Islands.
I like it there. I do have a few camera condoms but don't trust them. They can often gather condensation and are a faff to operate. I don't do faff.
@@fototripper I have a camera condom too, used it once while shooting at the beach; crashing waves. Did it's job, thank God. But normally I don't. That's why I like the shower cap. Easy on, easy off, no faff!!
Funny sketches AND great composition advice. Always worth a like.
Spectacular footage 😮 sketchy mind hanging about on those cliff tops. Well done mate both images were insane but I think I prefer the second one just a tad more. 👍👌
Both images were very juicy but the second one was definitely juicier! Really like the dramatic stripy light!
Grumpenhausen Von Pong 🤣. Howling!
The Masterclass continues.. WB Why Bother.. quality :-) some view you found there Gavin
😂 very funny vlog with stunning images and views as always. #2 for me but both stunning images.
This vid couldn't of come at a better time for me, heading to Italy to hit Seceda Dolomites next week :)
What a beautiful place would love to get some shots from there. Another awesome video dude 😎👍
ha ha ha ha I can't stop laughing!!!! "Homer Simpson credits clouds" that's the best comment I've heard about blue skies with clouds! I hate good weather too! I liked the first photo better but I would prefer it without the rainy cloud.... And yes, when the scenery is great, it's very difficult not to get a good photo, but I don't consider it cheating.
Both very nice images from the epic cliffs of slipperiness and verticalness 😂
Second one for me... much more drama in the dappled light.
Absolutely this is one of your best videos yet. Still laughing at the talking sheep. My better part and I would love to be on location with you, cheating in location
with you would be fantastic. Send our love to your better half, Miss A. Oh and I owe you a night shot I best get on that. OH and the second shot is better in my uneducated thought.
You do. She says Hi :)
Why does Uncle Grumpy look like a giant when you are sitting at the table at the start? 😂
lens distortion + he's a giant.
Another great vid Gav , 2nd shot was the best for me
Why freaking Bother... LOL! Slipped on a Sheep Cake... ok breath. Great shot... "content aware fill" for those cakes.
I preferred the second picture. As for conserving energy (those that are uninformed call lazy or cheating) what does it matter if you get the a result that you want. Unfortunately, I have struck the Faroe's off my list as I find it difficult to look out of a window (which you cannot fall through) in a high building without my mouth becoming dry and my hands and feet becoming wet.
Excellent as always, both images are great, but if pushed to choose.......... the 'pop' with the last one 👍
As always Gavin, thank you for the posting and the excellent tips and advice. When you are trying to keep the Sony covered up from the elements like you did by putting it in jacket, did you ever consider just getting some cheap shower caps to have on you. I usual buy a 3 pack for a few dollars and keep one or two with me at all time, that way just throw it over the camera and lens if I feel concern. More important, the most valuable bit on this video beside the tip to not get too close to the edge and slipping on the sheep poo, is I thank you very much for finally helping me understand the WB feature on my camera bodies, I figured it must be something critical since from my 7D to my 1DX2 has it, but now I can sleep much better knowing it stand for Why Bother, so I will not!!! ;-)
These alternative names for camera settings are great.. Why Bother 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hey, found you through watching a Paul Thomson video - how come you've not cropped up before? Actually, I think I may have seen you on an Uncle Grumpy vid, but I wasn't paying much attention at the time, I tend to tune out when he starts to waffle. Anyway, subbed, loving your content, photography should be fun, not taken too seriously 👍😎
Thanks Simon.
At 12.10, did you ever consider adding a pirate ship in the upper right frame? Would have been nice. Not a big gaudy one, something simple, classy.
hahahahah. I was very tempted.
Sorry, but I like them both. I think I could make the second one in Photoshop dodging and burning. The first more moody shot, carry's a stronger emotional message for me. And I finally learned what ND stands for! No Drama. Wow, I didn't know that. Thanks!
Great video. I like the brighter image (stripey light) a little better, but both are excellent.
Another great video, epic bants (Scottish term) the second shot was the one for me - really dynamic light. Love you videos, keep up the great work. The videos are always more engaging with you an Adam, good mix of personalities and humour. 👍
I see you included the world famous sheep pies in your composition. I heard those enhance photos. Lol.
When are you going to get rid of that battery HAWG and maybe get something a little more...eco friendly (and by eco friendly I mean can take a little bit of weather :)~~ ) Can you imagine bushwhacking through the forest up the mountain and into this view only to realize you left the camera on and the battery died? You may want to find a sheep s#!t to slip off the cliff on!
Thanks for another great video!
Here's a vote for the stripey light shot. Wow.
Gorgeous view. Yeah. Those puffin holes along the cliffs' edge are damned dangerous.
Awesome stuff mate great content and fantastic location 😀👍✌
I prefer the second shot , personally I would like to do a bit more retouching to pop the light and shadow even more
just caught up on your last couple of vids. very amusing as always. apparently i take you to bed, according to the missus you are the other man in the bedroom....mmmmm....whats that other bloke doing then!...have just come back from a photogasmic trip ourselves and thanks to you i nailed the shot of the Eiger i had always wanted, a 1000 mile drive and there it was. WB as you say why bother, so I didn't. Far too much drama in the shot so an ND quashed that straight away. Came away with a perfectly bland shot. so glad I follow you or Imay have missed it..ha ha. keep up the great work that you do and we will all keep watching. great stuff as always.
Glad you nailed the shot Sean and that I could help.
Haha ya that ‘Simpsons’ light just isn’t the juiciest business 😉😆👏🏻
Stripey light. I will look for it. Wuthering heights. I never read the book but the illustration has always stuck with me.
Try a shower cap over the camera, it allows you to leave the camera set up on it's tripod ready to take a quick capture between showers of rain
Loved the talking sheep 🤣🤣🤣
Very cool image well worth waiting for however I think I would have gone black and white , similarly early on in your day with the less desirable light perhaps there were some monochrome shots to be had? thanks for another stonking video, Del.
