Henry, I’ve been a portrait, wedding photographer for the last 50 years. I am now semi-retired and found your channel. While I have zero experience doing landscape photography you have sparked n interest for me to explore this aspect of photography. I enjoy your excitement and love of what you are doing. You are so fortunate to do what you love and make a living doing it. Keep up the good work.
i couldn't agree more my friend. a few years ago i sold all my camera kit and upgraded to the latest phone with top quality camera etc.....the first time i took my Phone (camera out) i immediately regreted it!!!!!!!! YOU CANNOT BEAT THE CAMERA!!!!!!! great vid and pics as always, you're a real inspiration. Tony
The parallel stones at 15:00 onward remind me of cattle grids. I didn't notice any broader views of it to be able to consider if such a thing were actually possible. I've seen them carved into stone, but not as separate pieces.
That sheep goat on the hill, I so thought he was gonna chase you. How funny would that have been. Love your content, love your work and genuine attitude. Looking forward to the next one 😁
Henry, I love watching your channel. I learn loads, you are authentic and so relatable. It’s good to appreciate that the challenges of photography are shared by us all. I recently went through a period where I lost a bit of motivation and creativity, glad to say you have helped me find some of that again. Thank you and please keep sharing.
One of the places I photograph often people litter constantly. It is as much a challenge to compose without including the trash as it is just to find compositions themselves. I cannot understand; it's a small but beautiful little piece of woodland with a creek running through it, smack in the middle of town where everyone can enjoy it, and this is what we get. Makes me want to scream.
Henry - another cracking video - thanks! I will say my favorite image was the first one with the curving stone walls - when I saw the scene pop up on your video I immediately thought this is an image shouting out to be taken - I’m glad you saw the same thing.
Superb images and video (as always) Yorkshire is very dear to my heart as it's where I was born and brought up. I hardly know it at all as I left at 18 and haven't lived there for any great length of time since. I'm "playing" with my newly acquired filters and learning 'slowly' what works & what doesn't! Keep safe young Henry.
You are such a nice person - I love your enthusiasm and your skill. That last image in this video, the diagonal stone one, was appealing. Well, all of them were, really!
I don't know how other people feel but I woke up the other day, I wake up at 5 am to get to work for 7 am, and when I got out of the house the air definitely smelled and felt Autumnal. Like it is supposed to smell in late Sept/Oct. It is certainly a Pseudo summer up here in the NW of England.
To answer your question re the heather Henry, it generally comes into bloom in August, so you're possibly just seeing the beginning. In Scotland the heather blooms twice usually, early summer and late summer. Might be later this year due to the low precipitation. However, late July is probably a wee bit early most years to see heather at its best. 🙂
The Pen-y-ghent cafe is a great place for a nice brew and cooked breakfast after a long hike - check it out next time you’re in the area! Great video Henry!
Really good video once again Henry, loved that shot at the end with the paving and the ferns. Now don’t get me started on dog poo and littering…..oooh it gets me so mad ! 😁👍
I'm with you on the dog pooh, when I walk my daughter to school I see it dumped behind one of those green telecoms cabinets I walk past. Why? They took the time it pick it up
So in Seattle you see this a lot on in and back out trails. Dog owners leave it next to the trail so they don’t have to carry the entire way and then pick up on the way out.
I’ve been watching a lot of your videos and noticed you do a lot of stacking in post. Could you make a video explaining why you stack foreground and background shots instead of taking a single shot at say f22?
Have been watching your videos for a while now and always enjoyed. Was nice to see Moke Lake pop up in this episode! Spent many hours there practicing my astro. Have lived in Queenstown since 2005 and I'm now wondering if we've ever crossed paths.
I walk our dog on the Curragh Racecourse and have come accross poo bags discarded on the gravel, I've often seen them discarded near litter bins in my town. Regarding filters, I've abandoned them quite a while and bracket if required but if they work for you great. I don't do sea scapes and am bored of waterfalls📷👍
Henry, the dog poo bag thing. I see it locally and what they do is this, if they have a bag and there isn't a poo bin to dump it in, they leave it in a place, usually concealed, and collect on return and dispose accordingly. Not all councils provide dog poo bins. Of course its feasible that it's just been left to make it someone else's problem.
I love your channel mostly because of your familiarity with the area around the Lake District. Henry, I'm planning on coming to the UK sometime from mid February to mid March. Not ideal for outdoors maybe but that's the plan. Any recommendations for places to hike for photos and possible wild camping? What about Snowdonia and Wales? I just spent 20 years in Montana. Snow and bad weather are no stranger. I'll have a hire car and camping gear along with my camera kit.
Henry. Great to see you back up there, I really enjoyed our day there. But, go back in two weeks and the heather will be at its best. Still an interesting video.
Another great video and a lovely way to finish ! surrounded by beautiful scenery yet the photo is at your feet ! Great work and great advice keep experimenting !!
Great video again Henry....yes I agree with your comments on the dog owners...the location is interesting with great panoramic compositions...I just love the stone walls/fences in your pics... something we don't see much of in Australia... shutter speed in an interesting setting & I don't use enough.... something to think more about even in 'general' photography... enjoyed your comments... cheers from Australia 😀
The simply answer to the dog muck thing Henry is that they're thoughtless scruffy gits! Anyway, enough that! How are you mate? I don't think those photos you took back in New Zealand were a load of rubbish! Granted, they're not a patch on what you produce now, but that comes with experience. Thanks again for another great video. Keep up the good work. Oh! By the way, I nearly forgot.. we're off to sunny Yorkshire for our summer hols! A little place called Rudston near Bridlington! Really looking forward to it. Badly in need of the change of scenery!
Hey Henry, I really enjoying your channel and the way you do things, its a pleasure to see the enthusiasm in you. I think you took a wrong decision with the long exposure shot at the end. I think, you should have tried that one. Maybe not 2 - 3 minutes but about 30 seconds to blur the sky a little bit and make the look a little bit darker and so create something dark, something different. But maybe Im just wrong, great trip at all, thx for the lovely content. :)
Great video once again Henry, as for your sponsor MPB, I use them all the time, great to deal with, in fact am waiting for my new to me sigma 24-70mm which is due to arrive today. Keep the vids coming, love watching your adventures.
I enjoyed the video as usual Henry. I agree with you, why do people leave there dog poo lying around ins of taking it to the car park where I'm sure there will be a bin to put it in. Nice image's as usual.
I totally agree about the dog poo! I went for a walk in the peaks where almost every tree by the path had a bag of poo hanging from it! I just thought WHY?! It is just bizarre, and pointless since the bags last a lot longer than the poo would have done if left alone.
Welcome over the border to our neck of tbe woods Henry, appologies for your encounter with dog poo, not a very good advert to our area but i guess most Yorkshire people are also disgusted with this sort of thing. Liked tbe last shot and use of fast shutter speed to freeze the ferns. Do you think a really long exposure with filter on of same shot might give a "creative shot", thinking of really sharp limestone rocks with a green mist like effect between them as ferns sway in the breeze (similar to say a long exposure sea shots or am i thinking too much here). Love this area ( Twistleton scar and lone trees just around the corner near Whernside) and thanks for the day out with camera again.
good selection of images this week Henry and agree in relation to your comments, I do love long exposure images but there is enjoyment in seeing the differences in adjusting the shutter speed in some instances
Just a mediocre picture taking hack but I still prefer the camera but that is familiarity & comfort - it feels more natural in my hand. I also prefer the view finder over the screen. It's only been a couple of years that phones gave the same creative freedom as a "proper" camera. I have always played with settings. More so since I switched from film to digital. I play with filters outside the standard use of them. And again - your enthusiasm and positivity is a great pick me up.
Dont get me started on litter.... they'd be better off digging a little hole and burying the poo without the plastic. Never an easy solution to these things. Great spot and great images Henry. I agree its fun being creative with camera settings. Look forward to next time.
Always looking forward to your videos. I think that the creativity piece is what photography is all about and why we buy these "proper" cameras. I'm at a point that I want (need?) to get back to some of the basics so that I can actually grow in some of the areas that I may have skipped over in the past. The creativity is definitely something that can go to the wayside if we get too involved in the technical aspects, but it always needs to be there in the background, just nagging at us until we give it some attention.
I feel Herny may have struggled to get dressed this day, the open zipper on his leg and his arm....... Henry..... you ok buddy? lol Great vid as always, keep up the good work.
Great enthusiasm and content as always Henry. I understand the dislike of the whole poo bags in the wall thing. However, I will do this most days whilst walking my border collie. She stops at the same place most mornings. Just far enough away from a bin and too near the beginning of our journey to carry all the way. Rather than leave it for some poor soul to tread in, I bag it and pop it somewhere I can retrieve, If I'm some distance from a poo tin. It's not always the case that someone is being ignorant. Sometimes they are doing their civic duty but electing not to carry a bag of doo doo on a five mile hike. I know it's frustrating and not very pleasant to see, especially for none dog owners that follow, but probably less so than whiffing it on the sole of your shoes when driving away or scraping it off the lounge carpet. Sometimes I forget or can't find the bag where I thought I put it, no matter how hard I search. The way I pay this back is by picking up bags I see on my travels and binning them. Maybe that's the reason why I lose some of mine, because someone is doing likewise. I agree that it is not pleasant and realise that there are ignorant folk that leave bags hanging from branches or in walls and never retrieve but I have to see the same bag twice before I start to get grumpy. Otherwise I'm thankful for the care they've shown.
Definitely not the case. If it were you wouldn't see the same bags day after day. And even if it were true, what makes that ok? It's still littering and it's still leaving dog crap everywhere. I can walk along Hadrian's walk week after week and the same bags are in the same holes for months. It's just disgusting dog owners who don't care about anything but themselves.
been watching your videos for a while now and love them. funny thing is I was down the beach yesterday and saw poo bags thrown in a cave and had exactly the same thought as you. would be better to just leave the poo rather than chuck more plastic on the beach.
If I'm on an out and back walk with my dog, I put the poo bag somewhere sensible so that I can pick it on the way back. He tends to do it near the beginning, so it saves me the hassle of carrying it. The owners I hate the most are the ones who allow them to crap on paths and then just leave it. Why they hang poo from trees and leave the bags hanging, I'll never know.
I pick it up and leave it and pick it up on my way back, I just don't like taking bags of poo on a walk, I appreciate that not everyone does that and to leave in a bag is bonkers. Glad to see you crossed over the border into "God's Own Country" super video as usual. Thanks
It drives me crazy when people leave a bag with poop in it on the trail. Either take it out with you or just take a stick or something and throw it off the trail into the woods where no one will step in it. It is biodegradable WITHOUT the plastic bag! I love your videos and photography!!!
As a dog owner I find it infuriating that someone would go to the trouble of picking up and then discarding the bag in the countryside 😡 they live amongst us I’m afraid and litter is my pet hate. Lovely images Henry, particularly liked the limestone pavement with the ferns, when conditions are not perfect, look closer and as you say shutter speed is essential where movement is concerned whether it be clouds, water or vegetation. Playing around with shutter speed can make or break an image, I’m still grappling with it but experimenting is part of the fun 😉 it’s good when you nail it though
Because they think they have done what is asked of them, they have to have each part of the process explained, ie when your dog has pood pick it up in a plastic bag, tie the bag up carry it to a bin do not hang it on a fence, gate, tree etc or leave it on the floor you need to carry it to a bin then put the bag with poo in into the bin, job done.
Hi Henry, one more interesting video on another of your grand days out. Thanks for sharing. Super images ( i know i say it every time, but they truly are ). Re the poop bags, some folks are just plain inconsiderate, and they'd be full of justifiable indignation if someone put a bag of that on their garden wall. How does it go ... leave only footprints, take only memories. Nice to see you in God's county once again .. maybe the sheep are expats!
Thanks Henry, once again a hugely enjoyable video. Now down to the poo thing, it is actually better to bag it up even if some idiots don’t take it away. If a child falls and their eyes come into contact with dog poo there’s a really nasty disease that can make them blind. The bag would offer some protection against this, but yeah take your poo home with you (from a responsible dog owner)
re the dog poo thing. Like everyone..it seems like complete madness to bag it and leave it. But to play devils advocate (not that I think this is the case all the time) it could possibly be that someone who WAS bringing their poo bag back to dispose of safely, actually had said package drop from their pocket, and someone else found it and hung it from a tree/left it in the wall to get it off the walkway. I only started suspecting this after I got down to the end of my walk to find my bag was no longer with me...
Thanks for the vid mate, as always interesting and informative, by the way Henry, where you a good citizen and remove that nasty baggy of dog poo on your way out, I'm sure that you did !
This is a story, relating to your unpleasant discovery in your video, about people who mishandle poo in the wilderness: Here in the fire-prone southwestern US earlier this year, a man was in the national forest. There were fire season warnings obviously posted in many places, and campfires were completely disallowed. Humidity was around only 10% with 40mph winds and dry brush - in essence, an absolute tinderbox potential situation that anyone should clearly understand. But this guy did a poo, and instead of simply burying it, he decided he wanted to burn the paper for some reason. So he lit it. And the wind kicked in. It flamed up, so he threw his sleeping bag upon it. That made the fire bigger. He panicked and fled in his truck, but people saw him so they did catch him and arrest him. The fire went on to burn more than 26,000 acres. Yes, that's 26 thousand, not 26 hundred. Many nearby residents were evacuated for several days. I don't think any structures or homes were lost. But it cost millions of dollars for hundreds of fire personnel to fight this fire with everything from large air tankers laying down fire retardant to people on the ground fighting it by hand. What a mess. And all because this idiot couldn't just simply bury his crap or take it out with him when he left.
@@cara1067 Thank you for your kind empathy. You're right - it was not malicious, which is good. But it's so frustrating that ineptitude on the part of just one person can cause so many people so much imposition and hardship, as well.
because they dont care ---- around where i live the hedges have bags of dog mess hanging in the branches in a range of coloured plastic bags. Bottom lone some just dont care.
I reckon those dog owners just pick up in case anyone is watching them, then dump it when they feel they can't be seen. Stupid when we all know the contents will degrade in a few days but the plastic bag sure won't.
Yeah it is a bit puzzling and "leaving it to get on the way back" isn't a great excuse either, my mate started their own product which is basically a tiny drybag on a belt to take with you and keep them in. The one that has been bugging me a fair bit of late is the foil helium birthday balloons, it is amazing the numbers of those that you see out on the tops.
The poop is laziness and forgetfulness on their part...The "Oh we'll get that on our way back..." and then conveniently forget where they left the pooo....lolol
Agree stupid to leave it in bags, in the countryside I think better to get a stick and flick it somewhere where it cant get trod on but at least it can still rot down. Stick & Flick.
OMG, I thought this was only a "California" thing (regarding the dog poo bag) because I see this all the time in our state parks, hiking trails, campgrounds etc. People are being ridiculously lazy!
If you saw the riverbank behind my house you'd be staggered by the way my neighbours are littering the riverbank with plastic greenhouses, trampolines, old greenhouses and wood and mesh from an old bird pen, AND THE COUNCIL ARE NOT INTERESTED IN DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT. Humanity is appalling, so what you showed doesn't surprise me!
Hi Henry, I had to produce a book for my photography BTec. A ⅓ was just on the subject of where people deposit their dog poop bags! It's an entire mystery to me and worse still, these bags, if ingested by other animals, kill! Thanks for the rant. ❣️

A great adventure indeed Henry and in my neck of the woods.
Love your comment on how steep your learning curve was which gives me the confidence mine will flatten out
Some lovely pictures as always Henry.
Enjoyable as always Henry with some lovely images to go with it
Brilliant mate. The heather is only just starting.
Great to know mate!
Lovely photos from New Zealand, you could do a calendar or book with those maybe 🙂
Thank you. All the best. 👍📷😎

Thanks for that mate, glad I got that wrong!!

The poop issue is about not carrying it on your hike and then picking it up on the way back. At least that’s always what I hope people are doing!
That's absolutely fair if that's true! Not sure if that's the case though 😩

I can walk along Hadrian's walk week after week and the same bags are in the same holes for months. It's just disgusting dog owners who don't care about anything but themselves.
Liked the ferns in stone shot. Good vid Henry!
Yep, this is popular is Washington state.
It’s like the coffee cups in the office sink, isn’t it. People think someone else will clean up after them. 🙄
been watching your videos for a while now and love them. funny thing is I was down the beach yesterday and saw poo bags thrown in a cave and had exactly the same thought as you. would be better to just leave the poo rather than chuck more plastic on the beach.
If I'm on an out and back walk with my dog, I put the poo bag somewhere sensible so that I can pick it on the way back. He tends to do it near the beginning, so it saves me the hassle of carrying it. The owners I hate the most are the ones who allow them to crap on paths and then just leave it. Why they hang poo from trees and leave the bags hanging, I'll never know.
I pick it up and leave it and pick it up on my way back, I just don't like taking bags of poo on a walk, I appreciate that not everyone does that and to leave in a bag is bonkers. Glad to see you crossed over the border into "God's Own Country" super video as usual. Thanks
Thank you Bill and yeah I never thought about that at all, makes sense!
Which olympus you use?
Em1 mark ii 👍🏼
It drives me crazy when people leave a bag with poop in it on the trail. Either take it out with you or just take a stick or something and throw it off the trail into the woods where no one will step in it. It is biodegradable WITHOUT the plastic bag! I love your videos and photography!!!
That is a good question! People in California where I live do the same idiot thing. It makes no sense.
I dunno... it's like having a trash bag in your car, but throwing it out the window when it fills up... Great video!
I saw the thumbnail and was worried that something had happened to the waterfall at Tarnbrook!!!
😂. I must get back there actually, love that spot
@@HenryTurnerphoto me too, probably just a trickle at the moment
As a dog owner I find it infuriating that someone would go to the trouble of picking up and then discarding the bag in the countryside 😡 they live amongst us I’m afraid and litter is my pet hate. Lovely images Henry, particularly liked the limestone pavement with the ferns, when conditions are not perfect, look closer and as you say shutter speed is essential where movement is concerned whether it be clouds, water or vegetation. Playing around with shutter speed can make or break an image, I’m still grappling with it but experimenting is part of the fun 😉 it’s good when you nail it though
Because they think they have done what is asked of them, they have to have each part of the process explained, ie when your dog has pood pick it up in a plastic bag, tie the bag up carry it to a bin do not hang it on a fence, gate, tree etc or leave it on the floor you need to carry it to a bin then put the bag with poo in into the bin, job done.
Bags o 💩 they don't wont to put it in the car so just leave it for someone else to get rid of it for them
thanks for sharing another great video
Your opening was a much needed PSA. That nonsense is going on everywhere.
Hi Henry, one more interesting video on another of your grand days out. Thanks for sharing. Super images ( i know i say it every time, but they truly are ). Re the poop bags, some folks are just plain inconsiderate, and they'd be full of justifiable indignation if someone put a bag of that on their garden wall. How does it go ... leave only footprints, take only memories. Nice to see you in God's county once again .. maybe the sheep are expats!
Thanks Henry, once again a hugely enjoyable video. Now down to the poo thing, it is actually better to bag it up even if some idiots don’t take it away. If a child falls and their eyes come into contact with dog poo there’s a really nasty disease that can make them blind. The bag would offer some protection against this, but yeah take your poo home with you (from a responsible dog owner)
Totally agree, always baffles me when people bag it up, then hang the bag on a tree
re the dog poo thing. Like everyone..it seems like complete madness to bag it and leave it. But to play devils advocate (not that I think this is the case all the time) it could possibly be that someone who WAS bringing their poo bag back to dispose of safely, actually had said package drop from their pocket, and someone else found it and hung it from a tree/left it in the wall to get it off the walkway. I only started suspecting this after I got down to the end of my walk to find my bag was no longer with me...
I don't understand that either
Thanks for the vid mate, as always interesting and informative, by the way Henry, where you a good citizen and remove that nasty baggy of dog poo on your way out, I'm sure that you did !
This is a story, relating to your unpleasant discovery in your video, about people who mishandle poo in the wilderness: Here in the fire-prone southwestern US earlier this year, a man was in the national forest. There were fire season warnings obviously posted in many places, and campfires were completely disallowed. Humidity was around only 10% with 40mph winds and dry brush - in essence, an absolute tinderbox potential situation that anyone should clearly understand. But this guy did a poo, and instead of simply burying it, he decided he wanted to burn the paper for some reason. So he lit it. And the wind kicked in. It flamed up, so he threw his sleeping bag upon it. That made the fire bigger. He panicked and fled in his truck, but people saw him so they did catch him and arrest him. The fire went on to burn more than 26,000 acres. Yes, that's 26 thousand, not 26 hundred. Many nearby residents were evacuated for several days. I don't think any structures or homes were lost. But it cost millions of dollars for hundreds of fire personnel to fight this fire with everything from large air tankers laying down fire retardant to people on the ground fighting it by hand. What a mess. And all because this idiot couldn't just simply bury his crap or take it out with him when he left.
@@cara1067 Thank you for your kind empathy. You're right - it was not malicious, which is good. But it's so frustrating that ineptitude on the part of just one person can cause so many people so much imposition and hardship, as well.
because they dont care ---- around where i live the hedges have bags of dog mess hanging in the branches in a range of coloured plastic bags. Bottom lone some just dont care.
I reckon those dog owners just pick up in case anyone is watching them, then dump it when they feel they can't be seen. Stupid when we all know the contents will degrade in a few days but the plastic bag sure won't.
Yeah it is a bit puzzling and "leaving it to get on the way back" isn't a great excuse either, my mate started their own product which is basically a tiny drybag on a belt to take with you and keep them in. The one that has been bugging me a fair bit of late is the foil helium birthday balloons, it is amazing the numbers of those that you see out on the tops.
Haha that’s mad I saw a helium balloon up there. Not great is it?
@@HenryTurnerphoto aye pretty sure they are breeding out there somewhere
The poop is laziness and forgetfulness on their part...The "Oh we'll get that on our way back..." and then conveniently forget where they left the pooo....lolol
Agree stupid to leave it in bags, in the countryside I think better to get a stick and flick it somewhere where it cant get trod on but at least it can still rot down. Stick & Flick.
Sheer idleness and don’t care
OMG, I thought this was only a "California" thing (regarding the dog poo bag) because I see this all the time in our state parks, hiking trails, campgrounds etc. People are being ridiculously lazy!
If you saw the riverbank behind my house you'd be staggered by the way my neighbours are littering the riverbank with plastic greenhouses, trampolines, old greenhouses and wood and mesh from an old bird pen, AND THE COUNCIL ARE NOT INTERESTED IN DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT. Humanity is appalling, so what you showed doesn't surprise me!
Hi Henry, I had to produce a book for my photography BTec. A ⅓ was just on the subject of where people deposit their dog poop bags! It's an entire mystery to me and worse still, these bags, if ingested by other animals, kill! Thanks for the rant. ❣️
Yeah discarded poo bags are a real pain in the backside. why do it?
I'm worried that the sheep are messaging eachother and reporting your position..
This video is about Henry's nonconformity with human attitudes and nomadic sheep, LOL
😂
I am curious. Why don’t you travel to other places? Don’t get me wrong, but it’s been repetitive lately. Thx
Just photographing what I enjoy mate 👍🏼
@@HenryTurnerphoto Fair enough, mate. Unsubscribe.
