- Come with me as I explore a very old and important road in Cork and Kerry's history. I am scouting really today and taking a few photographs on my Leica M10-R rangerfinder camera as I go.
The soundtrack today is from the wonderful birds keeping me company throughout the day.
I really enjoy the comments, so please do give me a like and subscribe and a comment to let me know where you have been with your camera. I appreciate the support for my new channel. Cheers
I hope you enjoy this one as much as I did.

“Liked.” Wonderful presentation; thanks!
Thanks mate. Glad you liked it. Couple more videos in edit so hope you check back. Cheers
I really enjoy interacting with you all in the comments so do leave a comment 👍
Great to see Ireland through your eyes 👍🏼👍🏼
THanks mate. Great to have you subscribed. Your channel is well done so I'm excited to see how you get on by the way with your moves also. Will be great.
So refreshing not to hear endless gear specs -lovely storytelling and images-Thanks Colin
Thanks Edward, while I do like my rangefinder cameras I am not much of a latest gear head. Mostly it’s just no point trying to stay up with it. Glad you like the video. I’ve another one nearly done so sub if you wanna see more. Appreciate you taking the time to comment mate. Cheers
Good to see you again, Colin. Good to see my beloved country around Cork. Cheers, mate!
Thanks mate. Hope you enjoyed it mate. Cheers
Great video Colin, man that sure looks like some great country there, I need to come over. Very nice work with the Leica M! Cheers for Canada.
Thanks Todd 🙏. I’m so glad you enjoyed it. I consider your videos top tier and truly enjoy all of them. You 100% have to come over and when you do you’ve a tour guide in me. 👍 Been shooting the M for 14 or so years now so it’s the camera I know. Although I’ve always wanted to learn 4x5 😬. Thanks for the support Todd. It’s very encouraging. Hopefully it’s beginning to warm up there for you mate. Cheers ☘️
Beautiful video Colin, lovely black and white images.
PS, I just bought my first Leica, an M8…✌️🇦🇺🌟
Congrats on the new camera. You’ll enjoy every bit of it I’ve no doubt. I’m glad you liked the video. I really enjoyed this video as that’s a road with a lot of history and goes unnoticed. Tomorrow I’ll post a google map of the road here and you’ll realise how unusually straight it is compared to other Irish ☘️ roads. I do love black and white and you’ll get some lovely conversions on your new m8. If you’ve any questions on it reach out. Is that an Australian flag? Ps. I’m also Aussie 🦘 🤣
@@colinosullivan yes it is Colin. I did start off in London though.
A pro photographer friend lent me an M8 from her collection and once I’d tried the B&W setting I was hooked!
Sold most off my Lumix cameras except the GX8 to fund the Leica✌️
@@markielinhart lumix was my first real camera btw. Amazing colours from it and head of its time a long time ago. I found with the m8 I really enjoy shooting it everywhere really. It came with me literally everywhere hahaha. You’ll have fun I have no doubt.
@@markielinhart I meant to ask what lens you’ll be using on it ?
Beutiful video and the captures you took feel as if we are there mate ✌
Thanks mate. I’m delighted you enjoyed it. I love your content so this is very nice coming from you mate. Your black and white work is just class. Glad you liked the video. I was wondering with the intentionally slower pace and 11 min video would anyone stick around hahaha 🤣
@@colinosullivan Thanks for the kind words. To me when you appreciate the work and when it makes you feel something than the time don't matter . Keep creating :)
@@marlon.iraheta I agree totally. Have a great week mate over there. 🇨🇦
I always enjoy these photo walks. Keep it up!
Glad you enjoyed it. I’m always out with my camera doing this so it’s nice to capture some of it on video. Have a great week and thanks for watching 🙏
Colin - This was great! You have some great shots in there. Loved the history lesson along the way! Cheers.
Thanks Kirk. Oddly you won’t find many videos on this forgotten road. Nice to put one out there mate. It was a nice day out along those parts. Cheers
Nice video Colin, I liked the way you set up the shot and walked into it. It was nice and relaxing. 9:27 was my favorite shot.
Thanks Mate. Yea that’s my favourite too I think. Glad you liked the pace as I intentionally slow the videos. I do try to get it to a relaxing pace 🙏
This was great, Colin! You got some beautiful images here!
Thanks mate. Appreciate that and I’m so glad you enjoyed those. It’s great to get out and relax and shoot. 📷
@@colinosullivan Absolutely!
Great work, Colin.
Thanks mate. Appreciate that 🙏
I really enjoyed the walk with you along "the Butter Road" ! Nature is amazing in this time of the year, your soundtrack confirms it ! Lovely images, colours and B+W. The pictures of the old buildings, especially the details (well chosen) are very beautiful ! Up to the end I was hoping to get some information about your Leica M10 ! Next time perhaps ? Greatings, Colin, take care, Roger.
Hi Roger, oh I’m delighted you enjoyed it. I’m up that road a lot. You might recognise it in the future, when it snows it’s really scenic up there. Oh yeah I think because there are so many good gear review RUclipsrs I’m slightly nervous to get into it. Should I for fun ? Haha. I can if you like nice you my thoughts and maybe compare the M10-R to my use of my m4 and the m8.2? How are things over your way ?
@@colinosullivan 👍
Good man and beautiful shots! Planar so clean. Loved the refreshing sound. Such a nice country, singing accent, unique diaphaneous, sheer and limpid light on the emerald island, especially on the west. I loved so much the sunny spells, a bit less the scattered showers! You're so lucky to have your feet in the Kingdom. Walls of gorce in the ring of Kerry in June, tortured trees, knights sheep, pure fat green, stone melting in lakes and the ocean just stole my soul. I left a bit of me on the island she won't give back. I miss Ireland so much I'm sure I'll come back as a ghost to blend in this gold - and have a few.
Thanks for the super kind words mate. 🙏 it really can be a magical place here and I’m looking forward to more videos as we head into summer. Cheers mate 🙏
Just discovered you and I'd love many more country walks and photography with the Leica. Well done!
Thanks mate. I appreciate the kind words. Well the weather is starting to clear up here now so it should be a nice summer. Where are you located ? Cheers
Nice video. Getting ready to shoot landscape in Iceland with my M8.2. 😊
That sounds like an awesome trip. Iceland is on my list. Would love to see some of your photos. What lenses will you pack?
@@colinosullivan I will have the 35 mm Summilux FLE on my M8.2 and the 28 mm Summicron ASPH on my SL2. I typically carry two cameras with interchangeable lenses in my bag for trips overseas. Will look for opportunities to shoot b&w with the M8.2. Checking its weather every day now.
@@wilfredshum3703 That sounds like an ideal setup. I would like to try the FLE. On the M8.2 that would be a nice near 50 equivalent. The SL2 is a nice camera I would imagine? I've never held one actially. Even when in the Leica stores I go right fro the M cameras haha
Really enjoying your videos, Colin. You make some fine images - I particularly like your monochrome shots. I'm living in Italy, but am originally from Dublin and feel a nostalgia for Co. Cork as my dad grew up near Schull and we used to go there every year on holidays when I was a child. I have a Leica M-E and very much relate to your laid back approach to making photos. Cheers!
Thanks so much Patrick. I’m glad you enjoy these. Something a bit slower than the some of the other photography videos out there. If you like Schull you’ll enjoy the videos this coming summer. I’ve quite a few videos planned for down in West Cork, including Schull. Magic spot. The M-E is a lovely camera. Where in Italy are you. We’re planning a trip to Italy in the coming year, can’t wait to get back over there. Cheers mate
@@colinosullivan I'm in the Marche region in central Italy, the so-called 'forgotten region', as nearby Tuscany and Umbria get all the attention from tourists. Working in a beautiful renaissance town called Urbino. If you happen to pass nearby give me a shout via this comment thread. In the meantime I look forward to your videos in West Cork.
@@patrickdowney2778 Hi mate, I'll check it out. I just looked it up on Google and WOW we are actually planning to do Italy next year. I hope you tune back in as I will have some good videos through the summer from West Cork for sure.
Nice video Colin and great to hear the local history. Built by a Kerryman and helped Cork become the largest butter exchange in the world!
Cork is where it’s at ;)
Cracking video Colin, as we're well into Autumn now I'm already hanging out for spring even thought it's been 23 today even got an autumnal tan on my chubby chops. Great history walk enjoying your content and the photography is gorgeous. Keep em coming mate. One thing I like to know I really struggle with audio on my channel whatever I do I always sound like a twat, what mic do you use to get that accent?
Hey mate, ah he’s southern hemisphere autumn’s, magic time in New Zealand no doubt. We’d a very long and wet winter here. So roll on summer!!!! Oh, haha the accent. I think you do very well indeed. I’m still adjusting to talking on camera and it has gotten a little easier with each video. In my latest one on the butter road I tired to give nature some air time. You did give me an idea that maybe sound is something people are j interested in and I might go over my setup. ?!? Thoughts!?
@@colinosullivan Definitely a great time of year down here we've had a wet summer by out standards topped off with that bloody cyclone, so it's nice to get a settled mild autumn. Just watched Butter Road very nicely done mate. deffo do a vid on audio, it's pretty vital and something ZZI struggle with. My latest vid I had to ditch so much talking clips as my bag strap had covered the damn mic live but never learn I guess.
The M10 is great for color. M8 shines with BW.
I do miss my M8.2. When it’s back I’ll be excited to shoot it again. The M10-R certainly has nice colours out of camera. I think my next video might be ilford fp4 and my iiif. What do you think mate ?
👍
For me, using a M is not to increase any performance. Manual settings has a calming effect on me, the noise of the M10 monochrome shutter is a sweet melody, the ergonomics are friendly, and all together, each photo session gives me the joy of a child in an entertainment park. I don't need more to be happy.
Mate I hear ya. I’ve been shooting M cameras since 2010 when I by chance came across Leica stand at PMA expo in Sydney! And I was fascinated being a surf sports photographer! I used the m10 mono in the Leica Washington DC store last in 2022 and it is super sweet. It’s a personal thing but for me I’ll always shoot the M hopefully. Lately developing some pushed hp5 I will shoot my M4 a lot more I think. It’s pure magic! For all my longer term projects they’re on the M cameras. My videos are just outtakes from some of those days shooting and I hope you had a look at some of the others? Can I ask where your from? Always fascinating where people tune in from.
@@colinosullivan I used to shoot M6, R7, R8, M240 (not to mention Minolta, Sony, Nikon, Panasonic G, Fuji X). Currently I use a M262 and a M10M.
I'm French. As you know, nobody's perfect.
@@marc6652 I always wanted to shoot the R series but never found a descent R6 near me! The m262 looks good. We love France. haha
how close can you go with that lense
Hi Carsten, the 50mm planar f2 focuses to 0.7m. I’ll be honest with you, it’s plenty at 50mm. The 28mm I have goes to 0.5m which can be handy on the street when zone focusing for really close focus. 👍
