Courtney, it looks like a majority vote: ALL OF YOUR VIEWERS HAVE MISSED YOUR DANCING! Glad to see the dance routine come back. I too live in a land of ferns, and the fiddle heads are fun to shoot. And they look good in monochrome. Thanks for sharing your day with us! We'll keep watching over your shoulder from Olympic Nat'l Park, Port Angeles, WA., USA!!! Take care.
There are many, many professional photographer influencers on RUclips with all the necessary skill sets to take extraordinary photographs. That being said, there is only one Courtney.
Thank you so much for including us in your photo walks. You are a joy to listen to and now with the dancing back a joy to watch. You are a natural photographer, teacher and entertainer.
It wasn't shaping up to be a good day. Then I saw you had posted a video. I love your attitude toward being opened minded about photography. Not getting a great image is nothing to fret about. Just getting out with your camera is a reward in itself.
great video, loved it, esp. the personal moments!- NB: everyone, she isn't nuts, just some of us photographers let our 'creative juices' flow a lot more freely, hence the outbursts, just excess creativity finding it's way to the surface!!
Super!! So glad the dancin is back! Boogie Boogie. When I'm not photographing concerts I always look for something else within the shot just like you, dragons, elves or whatever it may be, that's the beauty of photography it's always special to the person taking the photo. Another great video Courtney, thank you 🖤
Courtney, you have no idea just how much joy and laughter you bring out of me when you dance. It's so much fun to watch you act silly. It reminds me that even though I'm no longer a young man, I can still be young at heart.
Absolutely a gorgeous video and I love your fern close-ups. I so look forward to each new installment of your photographic journey! Thanks so much for sharing.
From what I understand, you mostly get moss and plants growing on trees on the west side of the British Isles as it could be temperate rainforest. You're right that it looks mystical, that's a great description!
Loved your video & love your philosophy on your images should be for you and not some judge at camera clubs competition. That put me off photography for years but you have inspired me to take up again
Hi, just watched a few of your vlogs. As a landscape photographer, I really struggle with woodland photography and finding images/compositions so thank you for sharing your ideas and thought process. I might even pop back down to my local forest 😁 Andy
Hi Courtney, I loved the "Touching moment" shot the most and your dancing in the forest was also superb although in another league. Keep on experimenting and sharing your art, please.
Hi I’m new to your channel. Glad I found you. Really refreshing, great tips and shots. Love your delivery to camera. Feels like you are talking to just me, that’s feels quite unique. Talking of unique…..’your dancing made me evening’. 👏👏
If you go down in the woods today, You're in for a big surprise. Courtney dancing, thinking she's all alone. Yay! I'd love to come across that. Any chance of coming to photograph in my local rubber plantations in Thailand? :-)
One of the best on RUclips. You tell us what you’re thinking and you dont rely on being half naked like some who think thats necessary to succeed. Your images have a nod to Karl Blossfeldt.
Beautiful fern images there Victoria - I love how many of them have some character and connection to them. Great finds. Good luck with the elephant herd for next year!!
This type of photography generally is not my cup of tea…but I must say that you produced some great images! I’m motivated to give it a go! Thanks for the inspiration! And thanks for taking me along!
What a wonderful video Courtney! I’m a little envious because the woods around here -Riverdale in the Bronx - have almost no ferns. I have only begun to appreciate ferns in the last few years. The photographs are wonderful. I love the ‘Mechanical Arm’ at 9:18 and the first image ‘A Green World’ at 4:02 where the shallow depth of field gives this photograph some lovely atmosphere. And underlighting the “Two Halves of a Whole’ was genius - gorgeous image, although I think I prefer the colour version. And it was wonderful to see you dancing in the forest. I like the elephant ferns ; I looks forward to seeing more of those.
Courtney, you make some of the very best videos on RUclips. 😊 Not just for the photographic inspiration, but your beautiful face makes my heart sing and the dancing lifts my spirit to the heavens.
I'm not an expert in nature photography and I discovered this channel by chance, but I'm happy about it. Your content is fantastic, it's a pleasure to watch, it's very relaxing and informative. Congratulations again, greetings from Italy 🤌😁
Wow. Hold up. Pure inspiration. Nat geo has not found this for a show yet? To observe your videos is like, my comments might be a title on most influential people in the moment. Incredible work from this creator. Inspire generations.
This is the 1st video of yours that I have viewed. I love the forest and ferns too, but I also truly enjoyed the music sound track that you choose. Well done!
Thanks for sharing. I really enjoy watching all your RUclips videos , I not only learn a lot but I feel soo relaxed while and after watching them ! Keep Smilin 😊. What a Great Dancer 🕺👍
Thank you for sharing your feminine and thoughtful perspective on forest/macro photography. Oh, bugs make fantastic subjects. They are also far more scared of you than you may be of them. After having a Phidippus regius jumping spider as a pet for macro photography, I got over my fear of spiders. She was far more scared of me. She died after laying her unfertilised eggs. Lonely and unforfilled. I won't get another, I felt quite sorry for her.
Another Green Whorl would have been a great opportunity to caption your first photo of that fern! Framing the fern using the golden ratio would have been better as the firn does exhibit that golden ratio as well. In addition to all of that, Another Green Whorl would have been a nod to Brian Eno and his album ‘Another Green World’, which also features album art alluding to the golden ratio. Food for thought.
Something I love about your videos is how much fun you have. I can see you really enjoy photography, and it encourages me to also have that enjoyment. I also love to watch you dance. You have so much fun with your videos. I love it. Keep up the amazing work. 😁
awsum video Courtney, just ordered a new Nikon D850 cant wait used to use a Nikon D500 and had a big break from photography but so looking forward to getting back to it and your videos are so inspiring, MPB is awsum will be getting some gear from them soon look forward to your new videos, your amazing thank you
Very nice. I like the dancing. I am a horrible dancer. Every time I dance someone will call the Paramedics. I have ordered from MPB. Very nice products.
So nice to see you dancing in the forest again. I love how you just let go and dance. Amazing shots of the ferns and I also can't wait until next spring so you can get out and shoot a herd of elephant ferns. I have never noticed that before until you made that video. Now I can't not see it. Thank you for sharing.
newer to your channel...not one to make a habit out of judging books by their covers, but holy hannah I was not expecting the dancing, let alone that you are really good at it!
Aside from the spectacular images, I love the names you give them. So creative, so poetic... they complement the image and enhance it, give it a soul... Definitely better than my IMG_693.jpg
Thanks you for nice video Victoria. I like your romantic feeling in your photography! Very nice and quiet photo. Don't worry about your imagination. This is just as you need to see something and create photo to spread a message! I hope to see next of your video.
Hi, my friend!!! Wonderful video!!! I really enjoy seeing what you are photographing!!! Your amazing photography is what draws me to your channel, but it is your wonderful humor that makes me smile!!! You are such a delightful young lady!!! If I had a daughter I would want her to be just like you!!!!!!!❤👍👍👍
Wonderful stuff, how about doing a behind the scenes. Show us the equipment you use and how you video yourself when your taking a photo. That would be informative.
Courtney, my kit is very similar to your (an 850 and a 780). I find it useful to engage vintage glass (read economical quality) that restricts my options to force me to see from a forced perspective I wouldn't normally entertain. I have one of the old 35-70 f2.8 D F-mount lenses that brought images in view, from the restriction, that I wouldn't have noticed before.
Thank you for watching and for your lovely comments!
I reaally enjoyed your video. i also sometimes feel the same there is nothing to photograph today. God Bless
Thank you for filming your lovely content!
Why are you so cute?❤
Love your vids, a very inspiring take on your personal creative process! I hadn't seen it it for a while, but your new website, too, looks stunning.
Courtney, it looks like a majority vote: ALL OF YOUR VIEWERS HAVE MISSED YOUR DANCING! Glad to see the dance routine come back. I too live in a land of ferns, and the fiddle heads are fun to shoot.

moar deathmetal dancing in forest
Dancing in the forest....the best! 😃
There are many, many professional photographer influencers on RUclips with all the necessary skill sets to take extraordinary photographs. That being said, there is only one Courtney.
So glad the dancing is back. Makes me happy 😂😂😂
The dance routine needs a video all by itself! Loved the video.
Thank you so much for including us in your photo walks. You are a joy to listen to and now with the dancing back a joy to watch. You are a natural photographer, teacher and entertainer.

Another great video Courtney, thank you 🖤
Thanks for the video, photographs and the dancing.😄
Courtney, you have no idea just how much joy and laughter you bring out of me when you dance. It's so much fun to watch you act silly. It reminds me that even though I'm no longer a young man, I can still be young at heart.
Absolutely a gorgeous video and I love your fern close-ups. I so look forward to each new installment of your photographic journey! Thanks so much for sharing.
I love how much moss there is in English forests. It looks mystical.
From what I understand, you mostly get moss and plants growing on trees on the west side of the British Isles as it could be temperate rainforest. You're right that it looks mystical, that's a great description!
Loved your video & love your philosophy on your images should be for you and not some judge at camera clubs competition. That put me off photography for years but you have inspired me to take up again
Seeing new video from you always makes me so happy!
Hi, just watched a few of your vlogs. As a landscape photographer, I really struggle with woodland photography and finding images/compositions so thank you for sharing your ideas and thought process.

Best photography based storytelling channel out there. Thanks you for bringing such awesome energy and content to the world!
So nice to see you dancing, summer spirit.
Truly am inspired by your view of photography and life. Thanks for making us smile. Great images in this video.
Boogie in fern land, never stop being yourself, great video as always and love the photos and imagination.
Thanks for the dance!!! Also, love your videos, thanks for the photography part of it too…
Hi Courtney, I loved the "Touching moment" shot the most and your dancing in the forest was also superb although in another league. Keep on experimenting and sharing your art, please.
Love the lil dancy dance
greetings from Peru I love your videos
Hi I’m new to your channel. Glad I found you. Really refreshing, great tips and shots. Love your delivery to camera. Feels like you are talking to just me, that’s feels quite unique. Talking of unique…..’your dancing made me evening’. 👏👏
You are a RUclips treasure, Courtney! I love your spirit and your photographic work! Cheers!
I absolutely love the way you dance. 🕺🔥
If you go down in the woods today, You're in for a big surprise. Courtney dancing, thinking she's all alone. Yay!
I'd love to come across that. Any chance of coming to photograph in my local rubber plantations in Thailand? :-)
I love your dance moves. Dancing in the forest kathedral is best🤗
loving the dancing
love your sense of humor your wild dancing and your macro photos with blurred background
One of the best on RUclips. You tell us what you’re thinking and you dont rely on being half naked like some who think thats necessary to succeed.
Your images have a nod to Karl Blossfeldt.
Beautiful fern images there Victoria - I love how many of them have some character and connection to them. Great finds. Good luck with the elephant herd for next year!!
8:29 that is just breathtaking
Your dancing rocks Courtney.
i love like catching the images together with you thkU cheers💕💕💕
Again a stunning vlog with great shots...and I like the little pause with your dance moves!!!
Thank you for another inspiring Video in the woodland. Nice dancing
Love your video - so chilled! I'm off for a dance.
Courtney, you should do a video on your dance moves. Looks great fun. Love the ferns.
Courtney, I absolutely love your video's. Thank you for opening my eyes to the beauty of nature !
Fun with ferns. You captured some nice shots. Enjoy the forest. Nice dance.
Fantastic. You have turned ordinary mundane things into beautiful objects of art.
I like how the 'dragon image made sense of your thought process leading into your composition of the scene.
This type of photography generally is not my cup of tea…but I must say that you produced some great images! I’m motivated to give it a go! Thanks for the inspiration! And thanks for taking me along!
Great photography Courtney!
Great video, Victoria, so interesting! and the shoelace thing was very clever ;)
Interesting to hear your thought processes. Very enjoyable. Thanks.
Such fun! Ferns are so interesting! Thanks Courtney!
What a wonderful video Courtney! I’m a little envious because the woods around here -Riverdale in the Bronx - have almost no ferns. I have only begun to appreciate ferns in the last few years.

The Sigma 105mm HSM Macro is a very underrated lens and can still hold its own against modern macros that costs 2 or 3x as much
Probably some of your best dancing yet. I bet my 24-120 is one my D850 90% of the time.
Courtney, you make some of the very best videos on RUclips. 😊 Not just for the photographic inspiration, but your beautiful face makes my heart sing and the dancing lifts my spirit to the heavens.
Прекрасные фотографии и море позитива! Я тоже люблю фотографировать.
Привет Вам и далёкой России! ❤
I'm not an expert in nature photography and I discovered this channel by chance, but I'm happy about it. Your content is fantastic, it's a pleasure to watch, it's very relaxing and informative.
Congratulations again, greetings from Italy 🤌😁
Bellissima interpretazione dei soggetti , in altre parole....belle foto !!
Wow. Hold up. Pure inspiration. Nat geo has not found this for a show yet? To observe your videos is like, my comments might be a title on most influential people in the moment.
Incredible work from this creator. Inspire generations.
Such an amazing artist. I am so inspired and blown away by her work.
This is the 1st video of yours that I have viewed. I love the forest and ferns too, but I also truly enjoyed the music sound track that you choose. Well done!
Great picttures, well seen!
Immediately got the "unconditional love". The fern creature isn't a dragon, though - it's a skeksis. ;-)
Thanks for sharing. I really enjoy watching all your RUclips videos , I not only learn a lot but I feel soo relaxed while and after watching them ! Keep Smilin 😊. What a Great Dancer 🕺👍

Love your creative abilitys and your dancing 😊 Courtney great video stay brilliant
Enjoyed the video as usual Courtney.
Good to see you dancing again.
Great image's as usual.
Catch you on the next one.
Throwing and photographing some shapes in the forest. Love it. 💃🏻

Love the mechanical arm shot. Thanks for sharing Courtney.
Very nice. I like the dancing. I am a horrible dancer. Every time I dance someone will call the Paramedics.
I have ordered from MPB. Very nice products.
Yess I love the dance intervals! Also I think my favourite shot was "A Touching Moment" though the heart was a close second. Fantastic photos!
So nice to see you dancing in the forest again. I love how you just let go and dance. Amazing shots of the ferns and I also can't wait until next spring so you can get out and shoot a herd of elephant ferns. I have never noticed that before until you made that video.

Another brilliant video .... Thanks!!
Thank you for your video Courtney as always you are very informative and entertaining
Change of seasons overwhelm me lol. I felt that junk
You should come to California to explore its unrivaled diversity.From the dessert to ocean to the majestic forests.
THere's my true baby hey!!!!... Oh Courtney I appreciate and very flattered... i was talking about the D850..(me turning towards it and winks) lol
6:15 Napoleon Dynamite called - said he wants his dance moves back
❤️eeeeeeeeeeeeey video as always and thank for bringing dance 💃🏽 Back🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹xx
Aside from the spectacular images, I love the names you give them. So creative, so poetic... they complement the image and enhance it, give it a soul...
Definitely better than my IMG_693.jpg
Thank you for a very enjoyable and inspiring video .
We sometimes get stinkhorns growing in our yard, usually where there's been wood chips. I always think of them as willy fungus.
I second the recommendation of the 24-120 f/4 vr lens.
I missed the dancing 🕺 And I love your imagination, I also often see dragons and other creatures in nature 😊
Thank you for another inspiring video, Courtney. All the better with the DANCING!!
Your videoclips are so relaxing and full of beautiful shots! It's a nice way to live photography. Moreover, your dancing interludes are so joyful! 😊
4:49 i agree with you, looks great
Thanks you for nice video Victoria. I like your romantic feeling in your photography!
Very nice and quiet photo.
Don't worry about your imagination. This is just as you need to see something and create photo to spread a message!
I hope to see next of your video.
Errr magic Mushrooms rings a bell here, those fern pictures look so good and I loved the bokeh....well done and thank you....
Great video! Always love your dances.
Hi, my friend!!! Wonderful video!!! I really enjoy seeing what you are photographing!!!

Thanks Courtney from Canada.
I really like "Mechanical Arm" (and dancing of course).
Loved the images you created!
