    This is a veritable landscape photography extravaganza. First I dazzle you with the richest fall colours you've ever seen, then I take you to two beautiful waterfalls at an enchanted forest. After that I top it all off with a mountain seascape of pure gold.
    What could be better than an adventure where I get to shoot with my wide angle lens, my telephoto AND polish off a spectacular drone panorama during sunrise? The only thing that would make it better is some popcorn which I manage to gorge down with the unbridled greed of a life insurance salesman.
    However, it's not all unicorns and rainbows. I give you the full scoop on my addiction and health issues, Simon shows his weird food fetish, takes a fall and crashes his drone...twice.
    Amanda reveals her insulting plans for my Christmas gifts and seems unimpressed by my dazzling gesture of generosity.
    Will I succumb to diabetes and high blood pressure due to my addictions; will Simon ever recover his dignity and does Amanda really think she can get away with giving me a treadmill for Christmas?
    There's really only one way to find out.
    Hit play, then hit like.

      For SLEEP- What helped me immensely was MELATONIN. 1 or 2 3mg chewables is all you need. I've had lack of sleep due to pain (arthritis) for almost 20 yrs. 1-2 hours sleep, up...1 or 2 again, up...repeat.
      I actually have gotten a few full 8's with the Melatonin. Natural, and better than more meds you don't need.
      Hope it helps.

    I was insomniac for 20+ years. What fixed it in the end was cutting all carbohydrates from my diet. Took 4 days and I slept the whole night, every night. I also lost 10 kilos and I didn't even try. Plus joint pain gone. No shit, seriously. Hope it helps.

    Hi Gavin , my best mate burned the wick at both ends for years running his business and trying to stay in contact with family and friends spread across the world in different time zones , despite many warnings that his body would catch up with him including driving an RV in Canada with his eyes shut he died here in NZ in a motor accident of his making when he went to sleep in the family Toyota and had a head on with a 4x4. Don’t be that guy, and I know this is going to hurt and initially give you two weeks of headaches you’ve got to give up the caffeine addition , I did four years ago and believe me it made a hell of a difference to my sleep and anxiety levels. BTW love those autumn shots 😀

      As dramatic as that sounds, there is a message here. You won't see the effects of go go go until you see them. By them it is a bit too late....
      We are really bad at pushing you, we would love to see the next video RIGHT NOW, but that pressure, if you are not sleeping, it is killing you.
      I was a physician back in my country, I probably do know what I am talking about but that is irrelevant. The business is very important and we all get it, but try and look ahead and see where all these efforts are taking you, not the business, I mean you. Finding the balance is hard, the pressure is big, but disregarding your health is probably not a good plan. Just a though bro. This is Orlando from Vantage Point P. Cheers.

    That is some of the most beautiful waterfall pictures I have seen in a long time. Living in Utah many years ago we had many waterfall locations in Immigration Canyon, and in the Spring, I did the same thing. The new leaves would offer some really outstanding shots in the existing light near the falls. Great job to you. As for your health.....Never allow your efforts and life to cause issues. I was the same way sleep wise until I turned 60, then I forced myself to sleep, but it did cause issues with my health, prior to that age and I knew I had to take over keeping myself well.

    Thanks for sharing about your insomnia. It's an awful thing. Had it in college and was down to one hour of sleep some days. It resolved after some issues causing anxiety and depression were addressed. Yoga in the middle of the day helps. Before bed it gets me too pumped up. Maybe I'm weird that way. Oh, and thought I'm sure you've read the advice about not using backlit screens and hour or two before bed, it's worth mentioning. That definitely does help. Really hoping you get the help you need to get on top of this. Truly, insomnia sucks.

    Sorry your not sleeping well, its awful. I got over most of my insomnia with listening to audiobooks as I was falling asleep (soothing ones) and using them if I woke up later. I think the audiobooks got my mind of daily concerns and I could drop off listening to them rTher than trying to force myself to sleep. I cut my screen time, which was getting out of hand and stopped using screens after 10pm. I upped my walking a bit and checked my meds online (in 'users' web sites - the official ones seem to miss what appear to be fairly common side effects) and changed some and am now sleeping OK most nights. Hope you get your insomnia sorted and get back to feeling your usual lively and flatulent self!!

    As one who also suffers from insomnia at times, I find its usually that I can't turn off my brain, no matter how tired I am. So a few tricks that work for me, some nature music or a movie that I've seen a ton of times. Volume has to be set to a level that distracts the brain but doesn't engage it. Also, caffeine after noon hour tends to be a tough one for me. Hope you can find the cure. Love the video. Simon seems to have warmed up to your shenanigans and he's got a good sense of humour.
