You're always beating your self up about your photography... Those images you posted of the lake/sunsets etc looked wonderful! If you can... Go on a trip to an entirely different environment, the high mountains or whatever and just shoot... You have a great eye!!
Thank you for your kind words! Much appreciated! Going forward, I will beat myself up for beating myself up! 😀 No, seriously, thank you for the kind words and yes, I will work to find new beautiful locations! All the best!
😀 I have now made it a habit to put the card back in the camera every time I have finished loading new images onto the computer 🙂That works for me - take care!
I never forgot a memory card, but batteries yes. 😢 You are too hard on poor Frederik, your images are amazing and inspirational. Many can emphasize with the young man in your story. To lose a job, and a job you loved can just be devastating; especially when it had nothing to do with your performance. It can be very easy to lose ones true identity and tie it to a job. Speaking from experience. Galen Rowell was n amazing photographer, I remember when he died and studying the accident. I always loved reading his articles in OP and other publications in school day years.
Thank you for your kind word Kim! I have not promised myself that I will beat myself up for beating myself up! 😄 No, but seriously: thank you for the feedback and also for linking to the blog post by Thom. I have added a link to the blog by Thom about Galen in the bottom of the book review so others can be made aware of this great blog post. And get more colour to the importance of Galen for many photographers. Take care!
Good comment Kim! I chuckled at your memory card VS battery comment. I took advice from someone long time ago, to keep extra cards in your bag/backpack, and a spare SD card in a vehicle, and in a pocket off the jacket one wears out the most. These things are all easy to forget. Yes, Galen did write for Outdoor Photographer, a GREAT Magazine. His Book that Frederik reviewed was pretty much a compilation of articles he had written about. He was a “ Force of Nature.” 😊 I used to have an ongoing Subscription to it back in the day. Take care Kim
Galen; “Great photography of the natural world is a window into the way certain human minds have ordered the universe.” Wow! No wonder mine tends toward the boring.
This was very enjoyable Frederik! Your insights and wisdom combined with a good story telling ability, and really good images, made for a good video. @06:30 My what a nice place and some very well captured images Frederik! (Spot 3) and the pier have so much potential, and I understand “revisiting” places. My Wife does not understand why I want/need to go back to the same places I have Photographed in the past. Aww, “shooting in mist,” poses a unique challenge. It is one I have struggled with Frederik. I personally think I “stink” at it, despite what others have said. It requires a certain angle, and positioning, as you mentioned, and catching the light just right? You might try some filters? I have tried Black Pro Mist, as well as Polarizing filters if you can believe. You might try shooting at narrow apertures, to actually induce some Diffraction, as any softening may help accentuate the mist? 👍✌📷😊
@@frederikboving Youre welcome Frederik! I do try to keep it interesting! 😊 I realize Black Pro Mist more for portraits, but if one is doing Landscape Photography, a Circular Polarizer is a must, for cutting glare on water, and deepening blue skies, etc. Those were some really nice images you included in this video my friend. 👍
Thank you Merlin! I remind myself on a daily basis not to take these places for granted and be thankful for being able to visit them on a regular basis!

Frederik has a good eye and talent to back it up. But aren’t most of us our own worst critics?
Good comment. Take care
Just checked my card reader. Yup, memory card still inserted! Thanks for the reminder!! 😊

That’s funny Bob! 👍

Thank you George! Interesting post as always! I will look into the filters you mention for sure! Take care!
