  • 📸🌊 Join me and my photography friend Brian Barnham on an exciting two-day trip to the beautiful Gabriola Island! In this video, we explore the stunning shoreline, capturing the intricate patterns and abstract formations found on the tafoni rocks and driftwood that have washed ashore.
    Gabriola Island, known for its rugged coastline and unique geological features, offers a treasure trove of photographic opportunities. Brian and I take you along as we discover and photograph these natural wonders, showcasing the beauty and artistry found in nature's details.
    From the mesmerizing tafoni rocks, with their honeycomb-like structures, to the weathered logs displaying rich textures and patterns, we delve into the world of abstract nature photography. Watch as we share tips and techniques for capturing these incredible scenes, making the most of our limited time on the island.

    A photographer once told me, it's not about meeting your expectation or your favorite light, it's your ability to deal with every hard situation 😁 it seems a little theoretical, but maybe too right to say.

    There’s something about texture and detail in the images that make you want to touch and feel. A completely different emotional experience to landscapes. In my opinion anyhow. Thanks Adam.

    Loved all the patterns and textures, I'm always a sucker for those two items. I'm curious, did you ever consider that the natural elements (trees, water, beach, driftwood, etc) have a discussion as a photographer approaches. Perhaps to agree that "this one has potential?" Just a thought, Bill

    Nice work sir! Looking into the backpack, looks like you're over the one-lens-challenge ;-) I love the image @ 19:50. The little knot left of center looks like the eye of a gull to me. Like it is poking its beak into reeds or something hiding the front of its face. The water-scoured images remind me of similar red formations here at "Valley of Fire". More please!

    It's funny, I too enjoy shooting patterns and small details.
    I try to make a point to incorporate both when I'm out and about. Finding something small and seemingly insignificant is much like finding an unusual composition that most people wouldn't notice. Nothing I hate worse than coming home with a shot that's already been made. ☺️
    Great video Adam!

    Have you considered converting one of your Fuji \XT-somethings to Infrared? Harsh mid-day summer light is made for IR mages. Plus, it's an entirely new method of processing, which exercises the old noodle and creates new inspiration.

    “Taffany patterns” again, sent me off once more on a fruitless search for the origin of the term. The closest I came was a somewhat derogatory term for a Welshman. Another possibility is the resemblance to the texture of taffy candy. More entertaining however, are the rhymes in which the victim of the thieving Welshman Taffy extracts revenge.

      @@QuietLightPhoto Thanks! Fascinating to learn more about the erosion process and the characteristics of the rock types that support the formation of taffoni. BTW, given the origin of the word, would the emphasis be on the second syllable? Taffoni, macaroni, rigatoni?

    I enjoy taking these minimalist pattern style of photograph but when I see a pro photographer taking them I often wonder what they do with the image. Is there much commercial value to them, other than just being part of a youtube video?

      There is very little commercial value to any of the images, landscape, close-up or otherwise.
