What's the advantage of shooting local?

People are so ready to travel miles, but what do you have on your own front door?
So what's the backstory behind this video?
Well, I’m a Landscape photographer, based in the UK, searching for interesting locations, mainly around the UK, but also travelling further afield. I endeavour to make all of my videos as interesting as possible, with editing skills I've picked up over the years, also with adding music to match the mood of the locations and images. Using a basic set up, consisting of my DJI Osmo Action, my Mavic Pro Drone (although not all the time) and either my trusty Nikon D850 or my Nikon D7200 cameras, for the images.
I always show my images, no matter how unhappy I am with them, I think you as the viewer deserve to see the good along with the bad, after all, if it’s on the video, you've already seen behind the scenes.
So sit back, grab a coffee or a tea, relax and enjoy my slightly unprofessional, sometimes comical, but always crammed with passion video.

Yes. Local allows the photographer to make repeat visits to take advantage of conditions that impact our pictures. Just makes it fun to compare the area over the entire year and record some of the changes that come to a view. I shoot in several local parks on a loose repeat schedule. Good video and reminder...get out there often!

You are absolutely right. Shoot locally (also)
It can be added that it is really rewarding to return, not just once but several times, to the same place. Weather, wind and season provide different conditions, other challenges and hopefully new images.

Really enjoyed the video Ben. I definitely proves you don’t have to go miles from home to get great photographs. I think RUclips can make people feel sometimes that you have to go to the mountains and far flung places to get good photographs. It’s about looking differently at places you see every day.
