The simplicity of this workflow is embarrassing!!! Without 1000 Photoshop plugin, masks or other complications… Congratulations Will you are always the top!
Pro Tip: “I only need one shot. I would like one nice image here, I don’t need 6 or 7 average ones. You just slow yourself down.” Thanks for taking us along with you. ✌️
Love how it's just you, your phone (I think) and a selfie stick. Proves that great content is great content, even if you don't have someone shooting professional video.
Appreciate that mate. It’s a GoPro. This is the best combo for me to still enjoy the moment and creating stills, with minimal distractions. Glad it works for you guys 🙏🏻
@@WilliamPatinoPhotography I don't do a ton of RUclips vids, but I just use my iPhone when I do. Like you said, minimal distractions - and a lot less equipment. lol
This is now the best landscape RUclips channel. The quality of photography combined with instruction is just amazing. Can't wait to join you in NZ one day William.
I'm not sure if you realise how inspiring it is, just watching you work a composition - it literally makes you want to grab your camera and head out snapping 😁📸 Great video as always - and cheers for the grading tips too 🙏 (the two shots are incredible)
That means a lot mate, thanks so much. Was busy running a workshop all week so not much time to film or edit anything, so I'm glad a simple video like this is still appreciated. Thank you.
I love these lessons on color grading. I've been using your techniques editing my shots from Alaska and it is making a huge difference. Thanks, William!
I love that the in field sections of your video are almost just capturing your self talk....a very natural style! I'm always a bit tentative going off track in Oz - too worried about snakes! I'll have to invest in some wellies!
Your video education is the highlight of my week. I love coming into the field with you, then home to the computer. A lot of instructors teach you what settings to use or what sliders to pull--you teach how to SEE. That is such a gift. Thank you.
Your composition skills every time, just blows me away. Once again I want to grab the camera and head out into the wilderness. Thanks for a great video.
Your videos are incredibles ! I always learn so much from them. I am impressed with your patient to find the right composition! I really appreciate that you explain why some composition were not “acceptable” I learn so much from these explanation !! And every time, the final result is stunning !
I always hear, expose for the highlights but I've always done the same as you when it comes to backlit photos. It gives you more grain but that's not a problem these days. I'm always shocked how much detail I can bring back. Thanks for this, William. Great photos, BTW. NZ is very similar to Canada's BC. I lived in NZ for about 18 months many moons ago thanks to a GF from there. Wish I was as into photography as I am now! Doh
Another good example of what is achievable on these modern cameras Will , since I have been photographing landscape I like you have always shot with the histogram to the dark side , something a pro photographer taught me when I first started out in 2014 . But there again depending on the resolution of what your camera can handle . Thanks again Will for your knowledge sharing , always appreciate it and so refreshing .
Thank you so much. Definitely this way of shooting is best for modern cameras with big dynamic range. Older sensors will still need two exposures. So glad not to be doing that anymore, haha. Thanks.
@@WilliamPatinoPhotography ain’t that so true lol 😂 . Your method definitely works , yet I still see and hear photographers still insisting on pushing the histogram to the right as far as possible without blowing out the highlights .. I have tried it over the years but it doesn’t work for me personally . Keep up the great teaching Will you giving so many a lot of inspiration and hope of doing better . 👍👏
most of us use tripods tbh 3 or 5 shot bracket then HDR blend in my view yields better image provided there is little breeze foliage movement trying to bring back colour lost in deep dark shadows and blown out white highlights well just too much pixel manipulation for my liking...thats my honest take on it
No worries mate. I use to do that many years ago but don’t feel the need with these modern sensors. It would also kill the joy for me having to go home and do blending over and over.
Thanks from San Jose, CA! Its kind of hard to start to trust the lower levels of light in your frames when shooting raw and making the edits back home. Does it make sense to shoot raw+jpeg to see some more processing in the jpeg before peaving the shoot? Or would the sifference be negligable? Thanks!
My pleasure, thank you. The shadow recovery will depend on your cameras sensor and dynamic range, so the best thing to do is take some test images and see what you can get away with ☺️👊🏻
I really hope you don't get RUclips burnout, love your content
I do every so often, but I appreciate the community here. Thanks mate 🙏🏻

All of your vids just make me want to be out, can’t wait. Top stuff, again! Love the river one the most 😍

Do you have a video on how you shoot for the highlight exposure?

William Patino: Those ferns look so amazing
Boulders, dead trees: Shoot me as well bruh...
