    I can not believe it. I have been watching your videos for many years, most of them several times, and now you come to my house, to Asturias, to take photographs of the same places that I have been photographing for a long time. You don't know how excited I am to see your video from my region. I would have liked to find you there, in fact I was recently at Buelna beach. You are a great photographer and communicator. Don't ever leave it

      The best place in the word to take good pictures. I travel once a month to Asturias, and probably I have a million photos😂 My wife still ask me the same after 40 years married, When do Spanish sleep....we are lake that. Nice video, nice images.

    You say you lke a grumble... well, i would say you are the happiest cheeriest grumbler I have ever seen! You may have a grumble, but you smile whilst doing it and come across as still being in a good mood. You are the perfect person to have on a trip like this, how could anyone be in a bad mood with Thomas Heaton around 😀

    I can understand that very much. In 2021 I did a tour from Bilbao to Galicia. I love the variety, the freshness, the people with their many festivals in the towns and... the good food. Anyone who has been there once wish to come back.

  • @nerrelloader4226
    @nerrelloader4226 9 месяцев назад +1

    Dinner at that late hour, I would have opted out and just gone to bed. Picnic baskets on location would have been a good option. The location looks fantastic. I'll never get there, so it's really nice to see from your eyes. Thank you for another great video, tutoring experience.

  • @johndunne
    @johndunne 9 месяцев назад

    Interesting timing. I'm 2 weeks back after 8 days shooting along the fabulous coastline of Nothern Spain. And like you, the Europa peak proved a nice added surprise. Apart from the other photographer with me I didn't see another photographer for the entire trip, which is becoming more and more unusual. But man, it was looong days. We covered 3,000km in the week, and like you were operating on 5 to 6 hours sleep a day. Aaaand the weather also proved challenging. Buuuut I am definitely going back :)

  • @Alister_Benn
    @Alister_Benn 8 месяцев назад

    Oh man, such a joy to watch this - I've been running workshops on that coast for a decade and to see it through your eyes has been so cool. What a coast - let's collaborate ;-)

  • @timrosenburgh8597
    @timrosenburgh8597 8 месяцев назад

    Wow what a workshop you managed to cram in a week.
    You must have been knackered when you got home.
    I think that you did an amazing job putting it all together.
    The waves were insane and what a place to photograph.
    All the places you went were incredible.
    You captured some amazing image's as usual Thomas.
    Look forward to the next one.

    Funny enough, I'm on a 3 weeks photo trip on my own in the same region of Spain. I need to go back to France in 2 days. I'm happy to go home but at the same time sad to leave, for this place is simply a playground for photographers.
    Tonight or I should tomorrow morning, I'll have a last attempt at photographing the milky way with one of the peak in Los Picos de Europa National Park. Great region with great people! Can't wait to get back here for another photo trip. Sorry, it is quite a long comment 😅 Now, time to go to bed because I need to be up at 2am for one of my last Shot of this trip.
    Your video is, as always, of high standards and I love your enthousiasm even though you said you're a pessimitic person. If you pessimitic then you are an enthusastic pessimist 😄

  • @Bob4golf1
    @Bob4golf1 9 месяцев назад

    Nice work Tom! I spent a lot of time in Spain in the 70's but almost all of it in southern Spain. The landscape I'm seeing in this video is SOOO impressive I wish I'd made a few trips north. You would have to work REALLY hard to take a bad picture.

  • @allandixon8105

  • @camoflag100
    @camoflag100 9 месяцев назад

    The layered B&W shots are sublime - chapeau to you for realising these magnificent images. So despite your occasional pessimistic overtures, you evidently have considerable talent. This combined with an easy to reach location should enable you to push the bar even higher. Gijon, Oviedo and environs are magnificent and deserve careful and patient observation culminating in photographic studies over a number of visits and without the pleasant distractions that were imposed during this trip. Go for it and chapeau again!

    Great images and great video, as always. If you ever come to the most western part of northern Spain (the autonomous country of Galicia, western neighbour to the Principality of Asturias) I'm sure that you will also find quite interesting landscapes. Oh, and sunsets in Cape Finisterre and Costa da Morte (Coast of Death) are really superb 🙂

    Thomas, your posts are always worthwhile. Watching you react to surroundings when photographing is by itself a most interesting learning experience. My epiphany of the moment is, why not do an entire post without talking? I enjoy your talking, but the photography is so good that without your voiceover, one can think more about what you are doing than what you are saying! You might have to do some things a bit different to let us know certain things, like which filter you are using, or the length of the exposure, but I'm sure you can solve that. And you do show the technical information when displaying the final photograph.
    And I am still ready for Volume Three!

    1:18, this would have to be a record for how early the first image is placed in the video, nice mix of movement and still! 2:02 challenging conditions lifted by the bright sea tones 5:59 I love the lighting, the reflected light off the sea lifts the sea stack!! 6:56 back light adds drama and depth, magic! 9:20 Dramatic and clean, almost looks like snow!!! 10:42, misty and mistic, love it 10:50 stunning light and contrast 12:18 wow what depth and light, thank you! 12:20 stunning texture and light 12:23 another misty image fantastic! 12:27 great abstract!! 13:55 subtle light strong composition! 16:38 a beautiful texture shot! Thomas have you ever put 13 images in a video before, the Video reflects the frenetic pace of your trip! thank you

  • @gyundoanyumer1800
    @gyundoanyumer1800 9 месяцев назад

    Incredible. If you ask many people without telling them where those photos were shot most answers probably will be Iceland 🇮🇸, Faroe Icelands 🇫🇴 etc. Spain is not that popular amongst landscape photographers but you showed the hidden gems of Spain 🇪🇸. Thanks.
