  • After a 5 month break away from RUclips I'm back! In this video I show you some of the images I've captured while I've been away and also I explore one of my favourite corners of the Isle of Man in pursuit of my first Autumn images of the season. Thanks for watching and I'll see you all again soon hopefully :-)

    Welcome back James. 4 days ago I checked your channel to have a look but nothing released. And then this arrived. 😁 excellent I thought. And it was just that, excellent. Not rusty at all mate. Like you hadn't taken a break in fact. Really enjoyed that sunlight washed photo. When you described the intention I thought blimey that's gonna be tricky. Then the image came up and pffff yup that's certainly washed in sunlight. Great to see you uploading again and as always can't wait for the next. Hope things chill out for you.

    I was very pleasantly surprised to see your video pop-up! Your photographs are exquisite and your island is on my travel bucket list because of your videos. I was glad to hear you actually wanted to create this. Although you are the most informative and best photographer in my RUclips list (and so, I would love to see weekly content), quality beats quantity for both the viewer and the creator. Your “break” photos are amazing as usual and the last photo was a stunner that I just couldn’t see before you explained your vision of how it would look when the light would come in. Stay in good health!

Some great images at the start of this Vlog though, if that’s you having a downer during Summer don’t beat yourself up 😉 pity you couldn’t find the inspiration to share how you got them with us but the results were superb. Autumn is upon us and hope the mojo is revitalised in us all. Having my first planned trip out next weekend to the National Memorial Arboretum at Alrewas and hoping I have the timing just right 🤞🍂 if not it will be a day of remembrance and thanks to those that have served us all and the camera may not even come out of the bag

  • @EdwardMartinsPhotography
    @EdwardMartinsPhotography 2 года назад +1

    👍 I took 5 years off pretty much from my Photo Universe channel... when I came back I just started a new channel, LOL. Your videos helped me to give Nikon another shot. It's early days, and I'm still getting used to the UI, but the IQ is spectacular! I wish the crop modes only cropped the Jpegs and not the raws and I wish the electronic level was assignable to a button, but other than that so far so good! Oh, and I could really use a 70-200 f4 Z lens. The FTZ adapter is a faff. 🙂 Great videos! Thanks!

    Greetings from California. Really enjoyed your video. I’ve mostly been shooting video for the last two years of my music lessons for bass guitar but you’re making me want to start doing more stills! Fantastic photos. I’ve always preferred Nikon for stills and canon for video, and I don’t even own a Nikon at the moment.. but you’re making me want to try the Nikon mirrorless system, as I have the EOS R and I really don’t like it - but my main problem is that Nikon has yet to make a fully articulated flip screen ! Why not? If I am going to do videos where I need to see myself talking I just don’t get why they haven’t made one yet, as so many people will find it useful. STILL, I may go down to my local store today and fiddle with the Z mirrorless system. You’ve convinced me ! Subbed to your channel.

    Hi James, what a fantastic series of images from the summer. As a keen amateur myself I have to say that YT vids have to be Quality over quantity, well done for not falling into the trap of creating content for the sake of it. I have lost count of the photographers I used to follow but no longer do because their videos have become stagnant and uninteresting based on the fact that they feel they must constantly engage with their audience. It just becomes "five things I wish I’d known" rather than fresh inspirational content, frankly I switch off after a matter of seconds. Keep doing what you do and if it’s a video every two months we’ll all I can say is they are worth waiting for. Andy.

    • @JamesBrewphoto
      @JamesBrewphoto  2 года назад

      Thank you very much Andy. I really appreciate the encouraging words. My videos are likely to be sporadic going forwards but as you asy I'd much rather upload stuff that I actually think has merit rather than just churn out rubbish for the sake of playing the YT game. I do have another video which I'm working on at the moment, probably going out this weekend 👍

    James, that is an absolutely stunning shot. If I'd taken that I'd be happy to call it 'Shot of the Year'. You didn't get lucky, you checked the weather report and the sun direction, went out, lined up your composition, crossed your fingers and waited.
    Welcome back and thanks for not doing 'fillers' when you weren't in the mood to go out. Although you did get some excellent shots in the summer, I liked the cotton grass in particular.
    I use two weather reports. I look out the front window (east) and the back window (west) and if the two correlate its likely to stay that way ...... for and hour. If they don't, its changeable 😊
