I Got Too Close To This Iceberg - Landscape Photography In Newfoundland

    Every epic road trip involves road food so we begin this video with a Newfoundland classic 'Mary Browns' but is it any good?
    We then begin our long journey north to St Anthony, Newfoundland where the iceberg sightings are coming in thick and fast. There are some gigantic monsters out there.
    Do I have the stones to fly my expensive drone so close to these massive icebergs in fog and rain? I do, but I get way too close in this episode.
    Ever wanted to see what a grumpy Amanda looks like? She lets me know in no uncertain terms how she feels about my 6 am wake-up call.
    I'm lucky enough to drive right through a quintessential Newfoundland scene complete with a full moon, mountain, icebergs and a little fishing shack on an island. If it weren't so cold I'd think this was paradise.
    After messing up my first pano attempt I give you a full lesson in composition while flying the drone. You get to see a screen recording of the drone remote while I shoot a panorama and talk you through the entire process. It's not as boring as you might think, honestly.
    I also offer some safety advice for people making coffee in a camper. Whatever you do, don't do what we do.
    Will Amanda finally cheer up and is that mayo in my moustache or something else? How do I capture a full moon blue hour shot and will the drone make it back from 6 km out at sea?
    There's really only one way to find out.
    Thanks for watching

    one of the amazing things about icebergs photography is that as opposed to other "location based photography", no one but you will end up with these shots - in an hour after you took that shot, the iceberg will look different and its position has already changed... beautiful, as always, work!

    Arctic ice & harp seals you start turning up around St. Patrick’s Day, and icebergs usually first turn up around 25 April, in the last two years the end of April two last week of May has been the best time to see icebergs around the northern peninsula of Newfoundland, in the past, it was not uncommon to see icebergs in July and early August, that was at least 15 years ago or more, in more recent years, the iceberg season has ended the first week of July, if you really want to see icebergs, you need to be up here before the tour season relief begins at least last week of April and all of May first week of June if you really want to see icebergs, I will warn you really need to dress warm, the wind that blows off the ice is very cold so dress warm.
