    - and BRAVO 👏 👏 👏 Nigel, you are a great storyteller and image collector (in french, image picker : ceuilleur d'images)

    I really enjoyed your take on this Nigel, Ricks footage was also stunning on my "local" playground.. the shots of the waves at the end worked very well... Well done and thanks for including me in this challenge... Until the next time and the rematch :-)

    This was really fun - you guys should do more like this. After watching all 4 of the videos I have to judge the challenge like this 1 = Mads 2 = Darren 3 = Michael 4 = Nigel although it was really close all round. The human interest and compression Mads added was the most unique and so it really stood out for me.

    Rainbow shots are beautiful. Interesting topic at 3:20 - if you haven't already made one, a video about when to choose black & white versus colour would be interesting. I have trouble deciding sometimes!

  • @PeterIldefonso-cp5mq
    @PeterIldefonso-cp5mq 11 месяцев назад +1

    I love these challenges. When I travel it seems like my photo opportunities are more like this. A short stop at some location and minutes to run around and find interesting compositions. At the same time trying to take-in and enjoy the surroundings.

  • @mxb5346

  • @davelindey8023
    @davelindey8023 11 месяцев назад

    At 3:29 definitely B&W. I find that in wave photography at high shutter speeds the power of the water splashing on the stacks and structure is conveyed much better in B&W. I have photographed this exact location on 2 occasions and am inspired to go back.

  • @MystifyJW
    @MystifyJW Год назад +6

    When you showed the photo you weren’t pleased with it gave me an interesting idea for a video. I’d be curious to see you go on a shoot and show us the compositions that don’t end up working out. I’d love to hear your thoughts during that process and then after the fact.

    I wouldn’t worry about the long exposures suffering from UICM, it’s all about the shapes isn’t it and in fact, details in the rocks might even be a distraction. I love ‘em.

  • @wm1502
    @wm1502 11 месяцев назад +1

    3:22 I like the wave photos in B&W, owing to the content is relatively "simple", B&W can focus on details, such as water splashes, with greater tension than color.
    8:35 Amazing photo, love it!!

    Great video...fun to watch. The fact that you ended up spending most of the time in one spot and seemed to get your best images, or at least the opportunity to get your best images, was a real eye-opener for me. I tend to feel like I always have to find a "better" location when the conditions are great, often leading to disappointment. Thanks, Nigel!

  • @georgemason2472
    @georgemason2472 11 месяцев назад

    Well that was fun! Maybe a new thing for RUclips videos. I suspect my favorites will change with the day and mood but it was great seeing what 4 great photographers would do under less than ideal conditions in some respects. Of course the wind while less than ideal to shoot in, contributed so much to your shots.

  • @GertKracht
    @GertKracht 11 месяцев назад

Guess that's why we are all landscape photographers, which is all part of the thrill of just taking our time and enjoying the experience and possibilities. BTW colour.

    Hi. Landscape, my favorite genre of photography. I watched the videos of all the participants of this challenge and concluded that as an empirical experiment, it is interesting. I don't want to assume the role of referee, but even though you disqualified Michael, his photos impressed me more than others. By the way, I am a subscriber to three of the participants, except for Daren's channel.

    Hello Nigel, if you are looking for suggestions for a future video, if I may so bold to suggest the neutral density filters. I believe you are a specialist in this area having worked with NASA etc. starting with an ND8 up to ND15, as how to get the best out of them, the best ones for sunrise, seas, forests, long explores. Would be appreciated, as I said only a suggestion. Cheers
