The thing I like about Thomas the most, is that he is not one of those super hyper new-age insta photographers so mega hyped about everything, jumping around praising everything - but you get this hones comments from him - sometimes it is amazing, sometimes it is all complete rubbish and he is not painting rainbow over it. So please stay as you are, because i always have a feeling that we see you as you are and not some fake online version.
Never in all of my life has a photo moved me to tears. Last year on my 49th birthday I was gifted my first camera and it has literally changed my entire life. So I consume a great deal of images from all sorts of disciplines. The last photo in this video resonated so very deeply with me the tears just started to flow. I can not explain why. You have taught me more about photography than anyone else. Not just the technical, however also healthy mind frames and outlooks while out shooting. I appreciate you very much Mr. Heaton. Thank you for your photography and knowledge.
I have been watching every single video of yours since 2014, almost a decade. It's quite a journey. The Last shot of the jetty is phenomenal. I keep returning to your channel because you make us feel we are in the moment. In fact many times I feel I am a fellow traveller with you. Great Photo Great Video.
Honestly, that last shot of the jetty has to be one of the best photographs in your portfolio! I was very impressed that you could still see the jetty through the water - perfect touch.
This is the kind of Thomas Heaton material I wait for every week. Out in the field under adverse conditions - you look like you are truly enjoying yourself. Great job!
Beside the stunning final image, I really loved the aerial shot of the jetty straight down. Also, the effects on "The next morning." text were very neat! 👌 Thank You, Thomas for your work! You continue to inspire me, and have been so for over 6 years now!! Thank you!
That last one may be my favorite of any of the images I remember seeing on your channel, spectacular. If it just had a sheep in it ;-) Seriously, congratulations on a great start to the year.
Wow, Thomas. This is one of the best episodes I've ever seen. I felt your happiness and enthusiasm, and your photos are the best, especially the last one.
Loving the jetty shot, everything just lines up perfectly, well executed, just the right amount of polarization, especially seeing the pier in the shadows of the posts. Definitely 1 for the printing and framing. Well captured and goes to show with determination and an open mind the shots are there to be found, true craftsmanship.
An amazing shoot that demonstrates the importance of planning combined with intuition...you placed yourself in a position to get a shot and what a shot it is ....simply glorious!
I'm watching your videos for years now. The last image is unbelievable. Not taking away from the countless fantastic images over the years, just a wonderful start into 2024. Thank you.
as has been noted the last shot was great but my personal favorite from this session was the almost monochrome of the bare conifer trees in the square image, Thomas wasn't sold on it but its my choice ... I guess that's why they make vanilla and chocolate ice creme
Your last image was really beautiful... that needs to be in your calendar or maybe even a print available for purchase... it should end up in "a best of 2024" book.
Wow! The last one………One of the best photos I’ve ever seen. Just brilliant! I’ll be thinking about this image for a long time. It’s one of those once in a lifetime shots and you nailed it!
That last shot is something special! My wife isn't a photographer but she loves to sit with me and watch your videos. BTW, the high flame scenes were funny and we're glad it wasn't worse. :)
Last image was awesome, the light was just fantastic. But I'm gonna pick the 4th image as my fav here. Just love the mood of the image and the lily pads.
That last shot is the perfect example of the famous quote "great artists steal, bad artists imitate" you can clearly see influences of michael kenna in that shot but you have added your own style into it and created something new and different. Most other photographers would have seen that and instantly imitated michael kenna making the same photograph we have seen a million times.
The black and white with the 4 trees is amazing. The two in the back mirror the 2 in the front but just as a hint of themselves. Great. Of course that last shot. geez! Awesome.
Stunning photo of the Jetty…I’m reminded of one of your comments from what I believe was around the end of May 2023, it’s a quote that I live by with my photography because it’s so true here what you said: “…So rare to get those perfect conditions, that you really have to come out time and time again and remember eventually it will happen…”
that last shot should be in a museum
If that last one isn't a calendar shot i don't know what is. Phenomenal photo!
My thoughts exactly.
I came here to say the same.
Where do I buy the ticket to get in line for the same comment?
Wonderful photo!
Haha. Let's see how the rest of the year goes.
@@ThomasHeatonPhotoHi, I found your channel a few days ago and haven't stopped watching your vids since! Keep up the AMAZING work! *Subbed*

Try Sean Tucker too.
Omg, the foggy lake shoot with the leafs under the water is pure art. I love it
Thanks a lot. I like it too. It keeps growing on me.
I love the jetty photo, but also like the drone footage of you walking on the jetty.

That last shot is a pearler; heavenly. One I'd consider to purchase.
Already a candidate for photo of the year!
That last one is the first one in the 2025 Calendar I'd bet...that's spectacular.
That last photo is killer. Good stuff. Thanks, Thomas.
That last photo of the straight jetty submerged in water was the climax of this video. Great exposure and that made it worth the trip.
Great tip on the polarization levels! Doesn't have to be all or nothing. That little insight MADE that shot. Well done, sir!
My favourite type of "Thomas Heaton" video and what a shot to finish .. brilliant.
That last shot! No words… ❤
Love what you said there: "..it's always a recipe for something beautiful"
Wow! Last photo is just wow!🤯
That last shot MUST be the first calendar shot the posts almost appear 3D coming out of the water and the light is magical.
What a way to start the year. And that last shot is just…wow.
That last shot is 👌🏼👏🏼
I really love the abstract water reflection. Really nice.

This is an example of why we go out and continue to explore. That last image was stunning not to mention being able to enjoy it all by yourself.
Beautiful shot of the jetty - it has all the ingredients plus a pinch of cinnamon! 😉

That one image would satisfy me for remainder of the year!
The last one is awesome
