Your final image with the man and dog has a very spiritual component to it. The man and dog are walking calmly into the light from dark and somewhat chaotic surroundings. Love it! Thanks for including this in today’s video.
You are one of the people who makes me feel that I should continue practicing and studying photography. Your photos are amazing and I am a big fan of your work.
Nigel, I haven't even finished watching your video (yet) because I just want to say how much I LOVE that photo with the 2 bare branches! It is stunning...I'm pretty sure I would've walked right by that one. I just love how you "see so creatively"! All of the images today are SUPERB! I'm so glad you went out and even happier that you made a video for us...thank you!
Amazing photos Nigel! The last prints are amazing. However I particularly like the one by the lake with the person walking the dog. Makes me wanting to be there!
Wow, this video is fantastic! You perfectly showed the same conflict, I always have in the forest. There is so much content on the picture, that it very often disappointing when looking at the pictures on the screen. And starting with min 17:00 you showed the amazing pictures when the light is fitting. Key message, the "boom" pictures come with the perfect light. So thanks for sharing this, these instructions are so helpful to get more satisfaction out of my forest pictures.
I really enjoy these winter videos from the UK. We don't get those conditions here and it makes me want to cry. :) Thanks for a great video, and Merry Christmas!!
Some great conditions for shooting woodland scenes in and some beautiful images captured too. The light on the final day was epic! I'm so envious. I'm usually driving to work when I witness anything even remotely like this, with no time to stop let alone capture anything. Of course, on my days off I rarely see epic conditions, but when they do happen it makes it so special and I appreciate it even more.
Great video. I've photographed that Hornbeam tree a number of times over the years and never had mist (At the beginning of your video). You have the luck of the Irish when it comes to light and mist :) The last images with the rays of light are stunning! Also love the shot of the guy and his dog.
Some wonderful photos here. You're fortunate to have such photogenic forests near you. I particularly like the shot of the beech trees at 23:00. Well done.
I love Nigel's woodland photography sessions. As much as there's skill that goes into capturing mountain scenery, it seems a greater challenge to assemble the jumble and mess of a woodland into striking compositions.
Beautiful work Nigel, the side light rays and the following beach trees are my favourites, beach trees in the Autumn are to die for photographically ! Cheers! 500k so very close!
Wow i enjoyed this so much the images on the final day.... blew me away. so lovely. hope you and your family have a wonderful christmas Nigel, and happy christmas to everyone reading this message too .
Good to see you being happy in your local woodlands scenes. Being there on the right moment, that's your message for the coming year and I will take it to heart. We had a lot of grey covered days, not inspiring to go out and the few brilliant hour there were, I had to much appointments in my agenda. But I bought a Z 105 macro lens. That in combination with my new Z6 III camera offers so much of fun playing with light and depht of field, even with the autofocus. Makes waiting on better conditions bearable. Nice Christmas days, Bert.
Fabulous video Nigel thanks for sharing - some great foggy conditions and nice to see Pebbles enjoying the mud!! No meta data on the photos which was a shame as it's always good to see what aperture, shutter speed and ISO you are using for your superb photos so we can learn from them...
I like including people in woodland photography, it’s something I do quite often as it lends another layer of interest and often a focal anchor. Im really quite jealous of the amount of fog you seem to get in your area.
So inspiring Nigel, I love the way you bring out the path into the details of your creative compositions. I always learn so much from each of your videos. Thank you for all the effort you put into each and every one.
Nice one again Nigel. Good to see you out again. Really love your woodland shots. The woodlands at your region are beautiful 👍 Have to visit that area once, such pretty scenery..
Nigel, no doubt you had wonderful conditions for woodland photography and you got some lovely images. But the two images that stood out for me were the close-up of the branches curving through the frame and the one with the man and his dog. Both are quiet images that don't shout at you. They convey a calming feeling of serenity.
One of my first photos had beautiful light rays. It ended up winning a National Trust competition. Beech are my favourite trees. Your second print (seen when walking with Ann and Pebbles) is stunning, Nigel.
Great video and beautiful images. Always pick up a gem or two from your vids - this time your tips on the histogram and checking the individual channels was super useful. Thanks Nigel.
Thanks for this fantastic video Nigel. Really inspiring. You mentioned it briefly in one scene: check your individual color channels in these foggy conditions because one channel might hit the limit. Maybe you could do a video on that? That's one of the things I always forget after taking a shot
All of the images were really nice, but the images that last day, were stunning!! Those just seemed to jump out at the viewer. Pebbles seemed to really enjoy the days out! lol Thanks for taking us along.
Nigel, your mistakes tend to resemble my best shots! LOL. What a wonderful project and what a great time you had with Pebbles. Thank you! Looking forward to seeing this work on Squarespace.
Great Shots Nigel wonderful lighting conditions , great when it all comes together, I would like you to add the meta data as woodland photography is Great but difficult , this would help me and many other watching no doubt, thanks
Haven't had fog in ages, but it's very thick this morning. I got my daughter up and we went outside before breakfast, and I was able to get a nice shot of her to use for her Senior photo for school. No dramatic sunbeams like yours, but she's happy with it!
Hello Nigel, great conditions result in awesome photos. Nice to follow you in the woodland and take part in your emotions. Concerning the histogram: It´s always based on the jpeg file, not on the raw file. So if there´s a peeak on the right or left side (especially if it´s just for one color), don´t care about it if you photograph in raw. Greetings from Bernd
It has never occurred to me to use my phone in order to assess the shot before taking it. This will be a game changer for me. Thank you sooooo much for this wonderful video.
Great video thank you - I’m definitely going to walk round the local woodlands and take my landscape camera into the forest not just my wildlife camera and lenses thanks again
Wow, what a great time. Images are amazing but I can only imagine the time out there as well. I (perhaps others) live in urban areas and woodlands like this dont exist. But parks do and some green spaces. Wonder how you would approach urban nature photography.
Great video and stunning image's. The image with the dog and man was outstanding and gives a sense of scale. Perhaps you could do this again in the future.
Had my knee replacement on Tuesday so feeling a little sore and sorry for myself but on the brighter side I will definitely get out more in the NY with my camera....thanks for all the inspiration
I’m jealous of your woodland of interestingly twisted trees and relatively clean forest floor. Too many straight trees and blown-down tree trunks in upstate New York.
Sunday mornings are best with Nigel, Pebbles, and a walk in the woods.
👍

So lovely to see you out and about with Pebbles. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. xxx
Amazing photos Nigel! The last prints are amazing. However I particularly like the one by the lake with the person walking the dog. Makes me wanting to be there!
Nigel, great video! The shot with the man and the dog is one of my favorites of this shoot!
The polarizer made a huge difference in that woodland shot, but how do you know when to apply the filter?
Great to see Pebbles again... a wet dog is a happy dog!
Cracking video again, Nigel! These photos are stunning and those light rays… wow! Amazing conditions! 👏🏻👏🏻
Lovely images Nigel, as you say 5 days of wonderful conditions. As someone who struggles in the woodland, these vlogs really do help.
Stunning pictures Nigel... That proves your class!
Nigel, thank you for another wonderful and inspirational video that is a real treat for the eye and the photographic soul.
Wow, great footage. Had a really good time watching this 😃 Great images by the way.
Great sunday morning, pebbles and some beautiful scenery. Those last few images,rays of light, tree shot awesome.
Wow, this video is fantastic! You perfectly showed the same conflict, I always have in the forest.

Some utterly beautiful light and you definitely made the most of it, superb
Fantastic day 5 light mate. And beautiful images throughout
I really enjoy these winter videos from the UK. We don't get those conditions here and it makes me want to cry. :) Thanks for a great video, and Merry Christmas!!
Great video. The shot with the man and his dog was wonderful and adds a bit of storytelling to the photo. Thanks for the tips and inspiration.
Wow, you were certainly blessed with the conditions on those few days.
Great image's as usual.
Catch you on the next one.
The shot with the bloke and his dog in it is almost perfect Nigel, so well done mate.
Beautiful images, the conditions with the mist and the light rays coming through it are just crying out to be captured. Excellent video!
After a long work week, a quiet Sunday morning with a cup of coffee and photography with Pebbles and Nigel. Just what I needed.
Some great conditions for shooting woodland scenes in and some beautiful images captured too. The light on the final day was epic! I'm so envious. I'm usually driving to work when I witness anything even remotely like this, with no time to stop let alone capture anything. Of course, on my days off I rarely see epic conditions, but when they do happen it makes it so special and I appreciate it even more.

What a week! Those shots you printed were absolute stunners!
Cheers - it was a good week
Some wonderful photos here. You're fortunate to have such photogenic forests near you. I particularly like the shot of the beech trees at 23:00. Well done.
Nigel I love the close up shots as well as day 5 with the light ! Bravo 👏
Incredible images (and video) as always Nigel & your enthusiasm is inspirational! Great to see Pebbles enjoying her woodland walks.
Thanks for this, Nigel. Always enjoy your enthusiasm about "getting out!" Hoping you hit 500k soon! Happy holidays.
Some of your best in a long time. The one with the man and dog is captivating!
Awesome photographs, The Last print with a person and his dog waking the path was best of the set. Thanks Sir.
I love Nigel's woodland photography sessions. As much as there's skill that goes into capturing mountain scenery, it seems a greater challenge to assemble the jumble and mess of a woodland into striking compositions.
I really liked the image of the man and his dog in the forest. Thank you for a nice video!
Your videos are a mix of art, tech and magic. Thank you Nigel.
Nothing like a walk in the woods with your dog(s), a camera in hand taking the time to find and appreciate the beauty.
Pebbles! Long time no see. Very nice and emotional pictures. Thank you both.
Great video, Nigel! Those images you printed and talked about at the end were off the scale stunning!! 👍 Five days of fog!! Must have been amazing!
Beautiful work Nigel, the side light rays and the following beach trees are my favourites, beach trees in the Autumn are to die for photographically ! Cheers! 500k so very close!
Wow i enjoyed this so much the images on the final day.... blew me away. so lovely. hope you and your family have a wonderful christmas Nigel, and happy christmas to everyone reading this message too .

Thanks for another great video Nigel. Your light ray woodland shot with contrasting warm and cool sections is absolutely amazing…
Wow that was a fun watch, so good to see folks in their element, that last day pics are especially amazing!
Another amazing video Nigel! And those photos are really really good! It’s so good to see Pebbles!!
My favorite type of video. I set a calendar notification yesterday to remember to watch this as soon as you put it up
I like including people in woodland photography, it’s something I do quite often as it lends another layer of interest and often a focal anchor. Im really quite jealous of the amount of fog you seem to get in your area.
wow those woods, conditions, images, prints, especially one majestic image, at 20.36. sooo good. and light beams. one!!
Thank you! Love your work. The image with the man and dog walking, adds some mystery to the photo, it draws you in.
This has made my Sunday - another amazingly inspiring video full of joy and the love of photography! Epic stuff, Nigel! 🎉
Glad you enjoyed it
Wonderful photos Nigel, thanks for this lovely video... 😊
So inspiring Nigel, I love the way you bring out the path into the details of your creative compositions. I always learn so much from each of your videos. Thank you for all the effort you put into each and every one.
Another bunch of excellent images. It was also good fun watching Pebbles get down and dirty ! 🤣😂
Nice one again Nigel. Good to see you out again. Really love your woodland shots.
The woodlands at your region are beautiful 👍
Have to visit that area once, such pretty scenery..
Excellent video, Nigel, excellent video. Thanks for creating and sharing it. Some fine images and useful tips and examples. Cheers.
Great video as usual. The light on those last photos was incredible. Well done 👏👏
Nigel, love the photo with the guy and dog walking the path. The foggy sunbeams; priceless!
WOW WOW WOW truly amazing images and your comments are super educational and infectious!
Wolfgang
My gosh what a stunning set of images! The ones from the final day were just next level ❤
Your best video for a while. The photos and commentary were really helpful. Thank you.
Some lovely photos in that collection man!
Once again, this really shows how printing photos really gives a sense of what you did better than on a screen
So beautiful images - and absolutely true that it is always worht going out! Thanks for sharing
Awesome vid Nigel, some beautiful woodland images too

I nearly mist it! what wonderful shots thank you
Loved them all but especially the man and his dog, something special about it and different
Great video and beautiful images. Always pick up a gem or two from your vids - this time your tips on the histogram and checking the individual channels was super useful. Thanks Nigel.
Glad it was helpful!
Brilliant Mate. Some great images. Love the beach one..
Good old pebbles playing in the mud.. 😆
Thanks for this fantastic video Nigel. Really inspiring.

Felt like the OG Nigel with the fog, Pebbles, and music. And that is a great thing! Thanks for the video. Looking for my camera now.
Another great video and beautiful photos. Thanks for walking us through your thinking. It’s so helpful.
Nigel, your mistakes tend to resemble my best shots! LOL. What a wonderful project and what a great time you had with Pebbles. Thank you! Looking forward to seeing this work on Squarespace.
cant find the right words, breathtaking is the closest word i know to describe this video
Great Shots Nigel wonderful lighting conditions , great when it all comes together, I would like you to add the meta data as woodland photography is Great but difficult , this would help me and many other watching no doubt, thanks
Stunning, and you were right to include the dog walker.

YAAAAAY! PEBBLES!!! 🥰
It has never occurred to me to use my phone in order to assess the shot before taking it. This will be a game changer for me. Thank you sooooo much for this wonderful video.

Great photos Nigel, I really liked the photo of the man and his dog. A bit like Mads photo style.
The dog walker is by far my favorite of several wonderful images.
Just WOW! Looking forward to your prints. Mine would be 20:10. Good luck with your 500k!
Great video , fabulous photos
Beautiful shots Nigel.
Excellent work.
Love the vid Nigel!!!
Love the images from Day 5!!
Some stunners there, Nigel
6 hours of post processing images ... 1 hour working on the van ... 9 hours cleaning Pebbles ... :-) .... great photo's ! Kind regards, Guy.
I’m jealous of your woodland of interestingly twisted trees and relatively clean forest floor. Too many straight trees and blown-down tree trunks in upstate New York.
Nice to be able to take advantage of some prime conditions for some great images.
Pebbles 🐶 can't resist a good mudhole, eh? Carry on. 👍🥂
