- Having felt a little blue recently, an invite to Canada was the perfect way to cheer me up. I flew from Newcastle to Calgary to indulge in some landscape photography with a group of friends and fellow photographers. This is day one of my trip where we photographed Lake Abraham in the Rockies.

Welcome to the Canadian Rockies, Thomas! Long overdue. I've spent twenty years hiking the area and moved here from the UK because of their beauty. And now my favourite landscape vloggers are all in one place! Mega!
Wow, great opportunity, and glad you linked Adam Gibbs you tube channel, it's one of my favorites with yours. Have fun - nature seems superb.
Welcome finally to Canada and my province, I hope you have a fantastic visit!
That 1st image 👌👌
One of my favourite (ATM) images of yours! 😁
Yes! Welcome to Canada Tom! We are so happy to have you here and lucky to have your lens on our beautiul mountains. I hope you enjoyed your stay.
Nice. Life is too short... In our 50s and we spent 5 months backpacking across Nepal and India then went to Asia to 18 months, same drill.. now travel across Europe in an RV.. no plans, just travel, enjoy and over 173,000 photos... The dream!
Where do you come from? Sweden? Anyway you have to visit Norway! This country is for me the best in the world.
Amazing! Your poor shutter haha
Safe travels. :)
@@ezramalachi4494 thanks... Willdo... 2 cameras just in case!
@@asnlem4772 the UK... We have a budget and Norway is expensive, plus we like the warm!...
@Little PAW 1969 oh yeah.... Seen the most amazing sights and sites.... Beautiful, wonderful, shocking..
Welcome to Canada! All my landscape heroes in one place. This will be epic!
I said to my boyfriend in my most accurate Heaton accent, "Guess which of our favourite UK photographers are here in Canada?" And he said back in his best Heaton, "THOMAS?!" Hahaha we love that you're here, love your videos Thomas! We love your photography skills, but truly appreciate your personality/humour. :)
So good to see the joy in your face and body language - you are back to doing what you love! That wide angle frozen lake image is spectacular.
Excellent video and images Thomas! Made me feel like I was right there with you ;-) all the best
Now I know what I was missing in your last videos, it was your "absolutely gorgious" - to see your enthusiasm at what you're doing! Go on!
Great to see you publishing longer videos and more importantly enjoying what you do once again. Have fun.
that first picture with the ice bubbles - just „gorgeous“ as you would say 😊✌🏻😁
Yess! This is the Thomas I remember subscribing to.. passionate, getting into it and just shooting some absolutely stunning images, not overly caring about doing the "vloggy" thing.
Wow... I think that last shot is my favorite image of yours - EVER. The composition and the color - it is visually gorgeous and also emotionally moving.
what a stunning final shot with the bubbles and mountains. DAAANG! Loved it man!
Welcome to Canada Thomas. Enjoy your time in the Rockies! I look forward to all the images you capture!
Tom it is great to see you in my backyard which has provided me with many years of photography joy.
That last image is an instant classic, it's going to be one of the best images of 2019, count my words
Never stop making videos Thomas, I really love your channel and can't wait for the next video each time
I used to live in Calgary and visited the Rockies often. Such a beautiful part of the world, I'm glad you got to see it in person Thomas!
Wow what a place! Good for you making the trip at the last minute, life is about experiences and making memories, I bet you’ll never forget being there! Looking forward to seeing the rest of your trip.
that last one is Gorgeous! never mind 'colour' - the blue is great. The tiny trickle of watery sun on the distant mountains is lovely too
A quick FYI for methane bubbles. Take a cup of warm water and throw it over the ice, it takes some of the cloudy problem away and adds some reflections. We have had some amazing shots that didn't turn out as nice as we expected until we did the water trick. The other trick is Beavertail Snowshoes, they take some getting used to but a lot less sinking in the snow LOL. I am so glad that you guys had such an amazing trip to one little corner of our amazing Canadian Rockies.
At the end of my tiring day, laying in my bed, contemplating another tiring day tomorrow, you bring me such peace in this video, I could hear the silence in the opening minutes, I could hear the chill wind, thank you Tom, thank you. By the way just bought your ebook from Amazon, looking forward to a great read too.
You guys are too cool,Love seeing you guys having fun. Adam Gibbs is one of my Favorite too.
Thomas you're so full of energy on this trip. Thanks for taking us along!
Phenomenal video !
Phenomenal scenery !
Gorgeous is so 2018, stop it, Phenomenal is 2019 !!!!!
Mr. Black around ??
I could always go for an absolutely stunning!
I’m more of an 👌🏼 man
I'm excited Tom to see you in my Homeland!!! Can't wait to travel to the Rockies this spring. Hope to see you back soon, much more here to explore 🇨🇦
For sure a great team here! My four favourite landscape photographers on youtube in the same adventures !
Great video and scenery Thomas!
Thomas ... Welcome to the western version of the Great White North! Despite jet lag, your excitement and exuberance ooze out of the video. You are in "mecca". I hope you have a wonderful trip and I hope this puts the bounce back into your step. Looking forward to your videos to come but take time for yourself and enjoy your experience there - we can wait ... patiently ... I sure some of us can ... for a moment or two ... 😉
Canada is so vast and there is so much to see. Glad to see you could make it out. We love having you. If your ever in my neighbourhood your welcome to stay at my place and take pictures here as well on the wet coast.
It's kinda heart-warming to see you so extremely excited and happy!
What a treat! Many of my favourite RUclipsrs in the same video & location. Can't wait to see what you all get up to. Man, that location! Just love the shots so far.
So nice to see you clearly happy and enjoying the Canadian Rockies. I spent the first 40 years of my life there and plan a slow meandering drive and shoot trip sometime again. Have some warm food and some good Canadian beer. Looking forward to the next. You know, there are LOTS of wild places all over Canada and many historic spots out east.. Limitless possibilities
Welcome to our back yard. So many breathtaking places here in Canada. Enjoy!
Welcome to Canada! Great video and Rockies are gorgeous, as always. Can't wait for your next video. Cheers
Fantastic video! This one really captures (with your enthusiasm) the thrills of landscape photography, which includes the excitement of travel to location, the breathtaking scenery, moments of reflective serenity, unexpected spontaneous captures (i.e. ice bubbles), the satisfaction of capturing at least a few great photos, and the camaraderie with like-minded photographers. Truly enjoyable content!
My favourite from your recent videos. I find it invigorating. Thanks for the great work Tom!
Great video Tom! Enjoy your time in the Canadian Rockies. Looking forward to the rest of your trip. Welcome to Canada 🇨🇦!
Hello Thomas, welcome to our beautiful country! Loved the video and the photos. Look forward to your other videos and photos while you are here. Just awesome you came to visit. It's a big beautiful country, our Canada! Cheers from London Ontario Canada
Another example of a master at work. Very well done Thomas.
Not jealous at all! The Canadian Rockies are on my top list to visit, looks stunning :)
Gotta come they are spectacular! pack warm and book a flight. Lots to see and shoot!
You guys both have to come down to the Eastern Sierras for the fall colors. It’s high elevation so late September to early October. I go and shoot the the Eastern Sierras every fall and the unlimited amounts of composition is unbelievable.
you can see methane bubbles closer to home too, eg Bernina Pass Switzerland
I am really glad, that you are not there. This week instead of 6 videos, with different landscapes I will get 6 videos on the same place. I will take back my subscription, if this continues :)
@@adorjan.botond I would think it is interesting to see how different photographers approach the same location? :)
That second image is special. Very special.
The last image in the video is marvellous.
Looking forward to more such amazing videos from this trip.
Great video Tom. Love the group of you together, like I've said with Nick, Gavin, now you and will say on Adam's video. Your camaraderie is infectious. Everyone should have such a great group of friends to hook up with and enjoy.
Wow! The story, the atmosphere! Oooh...
i'm moving out west next week. i've been in the same suburban house just outside of toronto for all 23 years of my life thusfar. I'm scared shitless, but this video serves as an excellent reminder of what awaits me out there, and why i'm taking this step in my life. Thanks, Thomas.
Another wonderful journal and omg, how gorgeous is the area featured!
Love the both Bubble images but the 2nd just edges it for me.
Great video Thomas and welcome to Canada eh! My home sweet home. Looking forward to seeing more of your and the others videos and antics.
Some really lush images 👍 Can't wait for the rest of the Rockies videos 😁🏔
That straight down ice bubble shot was my absolute favorite. Love your channel Thomas. Great content.
So glad you enjoyed it. You took some great shots. Abraham Lake is a wonder, all year round. The blue in the summer is amazing, and yet the lake is so clear in the winter. We love it out here. #dtcountry
@09:02 ++
OK, I just LOVE this segment {09:02-10:20}, ending with your reflection:
"It's just a case of waiting for the light and making those fine adjustments so that you're *ready* when the light happens."
I've been gathering ways to invite others into a more patient -- even contemplative -- mode of photography, and this moment in your "gorgeous" video [sorry, Mr. Black] is spot on. Thank you.
Loved this video. Your intimate shot of the ice bubbles was different, in a very good way, to many other landscape photographers on RUclips. I loved the playing around of the other RUclips friends. Looks like this will be a special trip for all of you! Great to see you having fun!
You made it... perfect location, 2 stop graduated filter, no squarespace, and three times “absolutely gorgeous”. Perfectly balanced...
Welcome to Canada, Thomas! Your enthusiasm is awesome, and it’s like I get to discover home all over again through your perspective. So excited you are here. Come back and explore BC next time: Kootenays, Chilcotin Ark, The Island, Haida Gwai... I could go on.
So happy you got to experience the best part of Canada. I'm glad you enjoyed it! I lived in Banff, Alberta for just over a year. It's paradise in the rockies!
Gorgeous scenic place. Amazing you. Brilliant people with you(especially Gavin). Loved it. Keep it up. I am Always waiting for Sunday because you. Waiting for your video to be uploaded. Waiting for the next video.
I'm really enjoying everyone's version of the vloggasim. Mates, camaraderie, and landscape photography = Awesome content!
All of my favorites in one place! I thought I felt the earth shift a tad. You just glowed with joy my friend. I'm so happy to see it and look forward to all of your shots from the trip as well as the musings of the others involved.
Ah goodness those patterns in the ice and all that potential epic foreground interest. Lovely images with some cool dudes. 👍😎
Nice to see you back on form Thomas , looking forward to seeing more . Great video by the way , really like it when you show how you actually take your shoots like the focus stacking .
Bubbles are cool! Frozen bubbles are cooler! Frozen bubbles and Thomas Heaton that's too much.Thanks Mate!
Adam Gibbs, the first world tobogganing champion on the stomach! Thanks for the cool video. greetings
Fantastic! Good Job! Livin' the dream ! Thx for the ride!
Just finished the rest of the video; so good to see you with a smile Tom!
Definitely got your mojo back with this video Thomas. Beautiful location, but also beautifully focused on the craft of capturing that magical image. Really enjoyed this one!!
Haha the slipping on the ice slow motion got me... still laughing!
If you can show people things that We have never seen before then that’s a photograph worth taking and story worth telling! go boldly where no ones gone before be brave!!
Greetings from the colonies! Haha. Really appreciate the reminder to take in and appreciate the 'tiny landscapes' at our feet... so often we miss the trees for the forest, photographically-speaking!
Hi Thomas, Andrew here, A Bolton lad living in Ottawa, welcome to Canada. Brits on tour🙂. Hope you may get to Ottawa at some point. So inspiring
Always look forward to your videos and your stunning photos .
So, "absolutely beautiful" are indeed words often used here in Canada to describe our surroundings. Your challenge now Thomas is to visit more than just the Rockies (which are admittedly amazing!). Here in Nova Scotia we are closer to the UK than we are to the West coast of Canada and these Maritime provinces offer endless beauty. Look me up when you decide to visit mate!
Cheers.
I love the Canadian Rockies. Excellent video. Looking forward for more from there in your next 5-6 days.
I ❤️Canada! Can’t wait to see you videos and the others great week!
best video for a while, great premise, great footage, love the voiceover intro and most of all great photos
You seem happy and that’s contagious. The post is only missing your “stunning” descriptor. You have quite the eye for composition. Proud to follow you. Wishing you every good thing.
Excellent, back on form there Thomas. I can't wait to see how Gavin Foto Stripper spins this up on his own channel
Looks like a mountain of FUN FUN FUN! You are a fantastic inspiration for landscape photography, unique, PS. good to see Nick Page there with you, he is also a brilliant landscape photographer. Hope the week went well and looking forward to the next exciting episode from Canada.
Nowt better than seeing a photographer passionate about what they want to shoot.
Love this! What a return to form!! Well done Tom - great video
Stunning pictures Thomas.... Another masterpiece of work.. Thanks for inspire lots of us..
Great video Tom. The first and last images were my favourite. The last one was a double whammy, ie great composition on its own but the foreground has mystery and depth. Superb stuff. Thanks for the video.
Great to see you having so much fun and inspired
What a lovely place to be at!! Just stunning. Awesome images as always. You truly inspire a lot of people.
And the last part of the video shows all of you had a great fun filled day there. Hahaha. Surely a day we'll spent ❤️❤️
Great video, lovely images, was in the Canadian Rockies last summer. Beautiful, beautiful scenery, even managed to see a couple of brown bears. Good to see your enthusiasm restored and doing what you do best, taking absolutely stunning photographs and enjoying the moment.
Thomas is back, Lots of information and inspiration, nice pictures and the film here in the Netherlands say goed gedaan.
Welcome to Calgary and the Rockies! I hope we're treating you well!
That was great, what a fun video and fun trip for you guys. Nice to have this channel back to why I started watching - awesome trips and great photos with explanation of why THAT photo.
Tom - Absolutely fantastic! Good on you for just picking up and doing it! Love the fact that you're traipsing around my old country too (grew up in Canada, although not near the Rockies unfortunately). I have been to the Alberta Rockies a couple of times and it's definitely Landscape Heaven. I love your spontaneity.
Drink it all in! Looking forward to the rest of the adventure.
The photos are awesome but what i really like is the vibe and the atmosphere of this video. Amazing job
Tom, good to see you happy like a kid in a candy shop! Nice video.
you're getting back on track, there were moments that I began to lose faith in you Thomas. but I see that you listened to your fans, you listened to us and changed the recipe, now you went back to the path that made me follow you from the beginning.
With recent video's you seemed like a guy in crisis, out of ideas and not knowing where to take it. All you needed was spontaneity and a trip to somewhere magical to reignite that passion. Well done, what a place.
Chris
Welcome to Canada Tom! Amazing sights and fantastic company by the look of it!
Awesome, Thomas, what a great video. Stunning images too, those bubbles are really cool. Greetings from Brazil.
So glad to see you finally made it to the great Canadian Rockies. I spent my entire life on the west side of the Rockies from where you landed in Calgary and you could spend your entire life time in that area never shooting the same mountain twice. hope you make many visits. enjoy Canada.
