You've done more for Venice with this video than their entire tourism board has to date.
Hahah! 😂
Great video mate. Looked like an awesome time.
Lovely photos. If I ever go to Venice I'll bring my wide angle zoom and telezoom with me.
WOW. That is art in the true sense.
Hopefully not sarcasm 😂
@@Goughie Definitely NOT sarcasm. I am in awe at the incredible beauty and talent of the artists.
The lens advice you give for locations is a gem. Very much appreciated.
Great little intro to Venice, and you may have just triggered the ‘go’ switch for our trip. Couldn’t agree more with your finding of taking a good midrange zoom, as i too find myself using the two extremes of the zoom range. Thanks much for this video.
Lovely video, I really appreciate your walkthrough. I have been there myself and I like you I think that this is a beautiful city. I need to go back soon to capture it from a different perspective. Cheers
forte Goughie! 👍🏼
Goughie. Simply well done!!!
Thank you!! I enjoyed making this one!
Great video and lot of useful photography tips !
Just came across your channel, fujifilm leica and travel? Instant subscribe!
Always makes me laugh when i see youtubers from the uk saying they've never been to venice or paris 😂 like its a 2hr flight, you can go there and back in a single day! Takes me 24hrs to fly there and a few thousand $$! 😂
great photos, love your fuji recipe video too explaining all the differences each setting makes, have never seen that breakdown before.
Ahah…. I’ve never been to Paris 😂 it’s literally two train trips away!
"Go get lost" is the best advice for any high touristic places. Get up early and then get lost people !
Wow! So impressed! Both with your photography - I think these are my favorite photos from you so far - and with the ton of info and insight on Venice and travel photography there. 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you mate!!
Great video. Yes, pre-trip can be stressful to decide on gear to take. For pleasure, less is more with a good zoom.
Couldn't agree more on your advice to get lost! We spent a couple hours on the main drag along the Grand Canal and couldn't wait to get out. It's like Disneyland, but a couple streets away it's totally different. Small canals, cute, quiet little restraints with friendly locals.
So much useful info here, not only with photography but traveling in general. Great video man.
Nice video man, loved the shots and tips about the travel.
Thank you!
Great video/review as always. I agree with some of your observations. I went in 2013 and the best part about it was getting lost and stumbling upon really cool alleys and squares. Still one of my favorite travel destinations to date. Continuing to enjoy these videos and the delivery. Keep up the good work Goughie!
Thank you!! 💪🏻💪🏻
Cool shots and thanks for all the extra info! Do you think one could get by with only a 28-mm equivalent lens like the Fuji 18mm?
Yeaaah if I was restricted to a single prime that would be my choice
Really fantastic photos of venice. Your style is really perfect for Italian architecture.
As a student I was in venice long before I discovered photography. Even today I could beat myself for not having decent photos of venice. :D
I feel like that about a few locations I went to in my late teens!
Goughie I love your videos and your pictures. You should have a lot more subscribers imo. If you ever visit Cyprus I'd love to suggest locations for you to shoot great pictures, and even grab a beer with you. Greetings from Cyprus
Thank you! I’ve never been and would love to go! I’ll keep this in mind!
Wow, what a find! Love your to-the-point approach. Of all the choices in photography, focal length is the thing I struggle with most, so the lens info was really useful. Looks like the kind of location that would benefit from my GFX50R slung over the shoulder with the 35-70 on, plus an old 80mm Mamiya in the pocket. May I ask what time of year you went? I suppose like many people, I’m put off by the crowds, so I’ve always thought about going in winter - although I guess it’s never really quiet.
Love the idea of getting up, having coffee and then getting lost with the camera. I did just that for a very happy week in Essaouira, Morocco, a couple of years ago. Subscribed.
We went the last week of April, which I think is supposed to be the start of the peak. We decide on April to try and balance weather and crowds
Goughie, an excellent video. Many thanks. Never really wanted to go to Venice and now, after this, perhaps I dont need to anyway!! Really good travelog. I was thinking of your stackable presets from the start and noticed that you gave a plug to this topic on one or two photos. I have been thinking and experimenting about this and probably will add to my previous comment on your earlier video on this topic. Thanks again.
It was such an amazing place! If you have any question about the presets feel free to reach out on insta
I stayed in Cannaregio distric where the Venitians lives away from the crowd. Spritz and cichetis with the local by the canal it's absolutly charming ,the real Venice! It's about 15 minutes walk from Place Saint-Marc where i got there very early in the morning and felt not inspired to stay more than an hour to take photos ,i took the same photos as you. I had my 16-80 and the 33 f1.4 and use both but mainly the 16-80. A mid-zoom is about all you need. I took my best photos in Cannaregio distric. My only regret is i did not visit Burano.
Sounds like a good excuse to venture back one day!
@@Goughie Absolutly ! Venice has may faces many mood. I would love to be able to shoot Venice in the fog specialy in those litlle canals at nigh. Thank you for your chanel really apreciate your work.
Hi from a photographer based in Milan, love Venice but it’s a little difficult to do street because of the crowd and the open space, I often miss a background or the picture is too noisy. My best blocks are Jewish zone and Canneregio but there’s beauty everywhere.
very good video as always, thanks for sharing your impressions. I have another question that might be a bit offtopic: How often do you switch your lenses on a daily trip around a city? I got the xf18 and 33 f1.4 an really love the pictures I can get with them. But I'm a little "afraid" switching them outside my hotel room so many times . So I thought about buying the xf16-55 for more flexibility on a daily walk and use my primes only occasionally and if I do, I switch them calmly and then leave them on the body since I get back to my hotel etc.
Depends really! If I see a photo that’s worth a lens swap then I’ll just go for it!
What are you afraid of? I wouldn’t worry about the actual gear, as long as it isn’t raining, it’s probably less dusty outside. Sensor cleaning is super easy! And a rocket blower normally sorts it out anyway! I used to worry more about dropping something! But I’ve got a bit of an order now using an empty slot in my bag
Fast paced, loaded w/first hand advice, travel and photographic, Goughie.👍 Some places can present sensory overload, making it a challenge to calmly isolate good compositions. Cool panos, and footage. Glass craftsmen at work can yield super artisan images. Unless I missed it, how long were you in Venice? Did you geoplan your shots (time of day, sun position, etc.)
Not long ago there were news reports of very low water levels in Venice - looks like that was not the case during your visit. Cheers!
We arrived early Saturday and left mid afternoon on Tuesday, so two full days in the middle!
I didn’t plan anything to that level of detail no! Partly because the weather was a little iffy!
Yes the news surrounding Venice is all over the place! Low water levels one week! Followed by flooding the next
Banger vid
Here he is! 💪🏻
you missed the fish market, too bad! :D
We did see it! Took some photos they just didn’t end up in the video! I’ll still use this as an excuse to go again 😏
@@Goughie sounds good!
If you travel again in Italy come to Torino, not too far from Milan, hidden gem, first capital city of Italy, founded by the Romans, a lot cheaper than Milan or Venice, won’t be disappointed.
There’s a few more places in Italy I’d like to go! Torino is now on the list
One gondola ride equals ten beers. Hmmm...
Ahahah! Exactly! 😂 at least you you might remember the gondola ride 😂
Epic video Goughie!
Seriously mate, the editing, filming, the cuts, the professional level keeps getting higher and higher every week! The takes and filming were flawless, and photos beautiful as always. Your girlfriend also made excellent use of the X100V.
What a beautiful place to go. Certainly wrote down the tips, and will indeed consider taking a zoom lens when I do go there. Problem is my only portable one is the Fujinon f/4 16-80mm XD
Cheers mate!
You’re far too kind mate!! Comments like this genuinely make all the effort worthwhile! Thank you!
the colour of the buildings isn't a myth, the claddagh in Galway and Cobh in Cork, Dingle in Kerry, Westport in Mayo and many more are the same, Cape Town, Charleston, South Carolina, St. John’s, Newfoundland in the UK the likes of Brighton, Lower Fishguard, Pembrokeshire, and even Tobermory on the Isle of Mull aka Balamory from the Children's TV show and many more
What was your film recipe of choice?
I saw in instagram you are selling your Leica m10
Yes! Currently up for sale! Still using it in the mean time!
@@Goughie you looking to get a M11 or moving away from leica?
@@CianMcsweeney not entirely sure yet! Q2 is also up for debate! M6 isn’t going anywhere
@@Goughie Yeah, I might pick up a used Q or Q2 if prices drop once the Q3 is announced. Recently got my first leica, a M4 and loving it! The digital M's are crazy expensive though, gonna have to save awhile longer
To me, most photos taken with long focal lengths look unnatural. That’s why I prefer standard primes. If I’m not close enough to make a good photo then it’s not worth taking (for me).
That’s fair enough! Crop 55mm is only 85mm so it’s not too telephoto! 28mm is my overall preference!
me being a tight yorkshireman convinced my wife not to do the €80 gondolas saying at least weve seen em. she said she was fine with that because we could go on them at the venetian in vegas if we ever go. i immediately whipped out £80.00 and said if we go on a gondola we go on a real one! venice is so beautiful to photograph
Ahahahaha! She knew what she was doing! 😂 I loved it there!
