Be careful of ANY scams in the comments. Sadly they're becoming more and more aggressive! Some even try to impersonate me. The real "me" has a grayed out name!

Aaarggh... I read this only last week - and managed to forget it. Right up until "you" offered me a MacBook Air free of charge. THEN I remembered! And noticed the spelling mistake. However, I'm naturally suspicious and gave no personal info away...
I rarely comment on videos, but this one has prompted me to express something. Until two or three years ago, getting "into" photography was always something I wanted to do, but didn't really know how to start / progress from the basics. I then started watching RUclips videos, and soon found a selection of people whose output I found helpful. Within this group, I then found myself looking out for every video released by Mads and Nigel. So - some feedback to both of you.... I like to feel that I have now progressed to being a "competent" landscape photographer. I don't do it for money, or for praise from others, but purely from the enjoyment of capturing images that reflect the beauty around us. I don't feel that I would ever have achieved this without watching (and purchasing!) the material you have both produced. You both have the ability to explain both the technical and artistic aspects of your art in a clear and simple way. But more than that, you both convey your enthusiasm and positivity so well, and this is just as important - it is infectious, and it inspires people like me to learn and appreciate the possibilities of producing images that we can be proud of, and that other people really enjoy. I'm sure that behind everything you do, there is a lot of hard work that people like me will never see. But I am very sure that there are so many people out there who are just like me - very grateful for all you have both done to show us what we in turn are capable of achieving. So thank you both - and I will always be looking out for each video you produce, I never fail to learn something from every single one.
This is so to the point and non-dogmatic. The point about making an assumption that brilliant lighting is going to make the photo (my understanding of the point) resonates so well with me. I get over-awed by the light conditions that I snap away and often get disappointed when I see the results in the cold light of day.
I owe these two . Lockdown was a pain for many , i sat through 100s of hours of their RUclips videos and podcasts for which i will be eternally grateful , it was therapy , and still is ! Thankyou fellas .
In the "Old Days", as a landscape/nature photographer, you would wait each month for "Outdoor Photographer" magazine to arrive to learn new techniques and get inspired. Perhaps pick up a couple of photography books along the way. Now it's Mads and Nigel on RUclips and it's so much fresher, so much more timely and useful and way more inspirational. And the two of you together in a video like this? Epic!
Two of my favorite YT Shutterbugs together!!! We now need a trip to Canada to get together with Simon d'Entremont! Apart from the photography, it’ll be a riot listening to the range of accents 😋 You guys are the absolute, ruddy best - or should that be… “Epic”?
Oh my goodness. The two men who have been the biggest influences on my own journey as a photographer.....sitting down to have a chat about photo stuff. It truly does not get any better than this!
Next time you're out, take the same photo and expose them the same, one with iso 64 (or lowest) and one at 100. Then compare the colors, some camera's tend to lose vibrance in the colors. Why? Science, lol. I have no idea, but it happened on my canon r5/6. Great video with Nigel, Mads.
I just love you two! You’ve taught me so much since the pandemic changed me from an occasional photographer to a total photography nut! Also, Mads, every time I hear you I just looooove your accent! Aarhus? I have friend from there, and he sounds exactly like you.
Agree with most of the comments here. Nigel and Mads are my two favorite landscape RUclipsrs. I have learned so much from both of them in the short time I’ve taken up photography. Discovered both about four months ago and search out their videos on types of locations in preparation for going out to shoot.
Having a cup of coffee in the morning and watching two of my favourite photographers talking about the stuff we all love is pure joy! Thank you Mads and Nigel!
That was a great session. I'd finished work for the day, made some toast, sat down on the couch and put RUclips on. Mads and Nigel, I thought, this is going to be good; and it was. Nice one. With my wee bridge camera dynamic range and a smallest aperture of f8 are my two biggest headaches, but I've learned to use exposure blending and focus stacking, after a lot of head scratching, to get round these. So, in a way it's been a practical learning experience for me. I use a tripod a lot of the time, but there are occasions when the light is changing really quickly that the camera comes off the tripod and there is that sense of freedom for a little while. Not all the shots are crisp, but I do get some that I'm pleased with. In those cases I tend to take a lot more shots than I need, just to make sure that in those shots even just one is going to be okay. Yesterday, I sent an image to a good print shop. It was the first time I have ever done this and this was a new step for me. I spent hours just going through image after image in Lightroom until I found the one I wanted to print; a little piece of Derbyshire. Now, all I can do is wait; that's the hardest part and wondering if I had done all the necessaries before sending the image to the printers. Keeping my fingers crossed. Thanks Mads and Nigel for a great video.
The two of you together?! "It doesn't get better than this" "Absolutely EPIC"! 😁 Thanks to you both! (Btw about printing: i have my best shots of the year printed as a big (the photo's about 35×50cm) year-calendar) Works great for regulary look at your best shots on a daily basis... Thanks again Nigel & Mads!
For me, comp is dependent on the purpose of the photo. Sometimes a shot is for the memory and though there are imperfections the brain brings back the other elements (sun on my shoulders, smell of the woods, sound of the birds) that made it a memorable scene. If the shot is for public consumption only, then the comp must be geared towards visual appeal only. Love having two incredibly talented photographers together!
That was really great! So wonderful to simply sit on the edge of a conversation between two wonderful easy going photographers. Loved it. My take away was around the using of compositional techniques not as rules but as tools. Loved that. That image on the sand bars . . . . .yeah wow . . . . .
In my opinion, all you need is a ND 6-stop, ND 10-stop, circular polarizer. Also, circular polarizers are often not talked about in video, but they can add that extra "pop" when you cut out the glare when shooting video (if you shoot it of course).
Watching a video with you 2, guys, talking about photography, sharing from your own experience, made my day better. Is a such a pleasure! I admit that I have a big respect for both of you, since I discovered yo on youtube (more than 3 years ago), every episode brings value, advises, something to learn anyway. "A huge thank to you" (I'm quoting Nigel) for this project and I hope you will continue doing this king of discussions. I love your vision about photography, about the common projects, the way each of you refers to the other (not in this episode, but in general), the whole collaboration. I could say you are like a team - but a bigger one, world wide spread. Looking forward to see you, guys! (a big fan of both of you from Romania). 👏👏👏👏👏
Imagine having €100,000 and buying a trip to an epic place and then learn photography and post processing from these two gentlemen. That would be more epic than going out with the US President in AirForce One. What a great video and Mads and Nigel are so nice to listening to.
Couldn't agree more about filters they are a faf , I rarely use them these days, 100% agree with printing even just printing small and cheap and making small photo diaries out of them and then perhaps pick 5-6 for the year to get a proper print 😀
Very entertaining and educational. This worked really well I think. All topics were very relevant for me and like the straight answers cutting through all the BS of filters and focus stacking etc.
What I learned from printing was to turn down my screen brightness. When I first started printing I was like 🤯 so dark. Had to learn about screen to print. Picked up digital the last few years. Came from my k1000 then to mft then grabbed full frame. Still learning "tricks" to edit on digital.
Guys, I really appreciate the passion and enthusiasm you two displayed! Love to see more of you both riffing of one another to pass on useful information.
I definitely agree with the editing part. Once I started editing with Lightroom, I actually found it started to help with my composition. Once I understood more what I could do with an image once I got it back, I started to realise in the field that more shots would work which I would normally have dismissed. Great video guys
I totally agree. Editing is a great way to view and review your images. I sometimes think, maybe I should leave more space in the margins or or focus in etc.
You guys are masters and it's always fun listening to either of you. As a former painter, I love editing. Improving that skill has made a massive difference in my photography. P.S. Topaz DeNoise is brilliant. I took a bird photo yesterday at ISO 10,000 because of the high shutter speed I needed and the late afternoon light. After DeNoise, you'd think I took it at ISO 200 or lower. I can't recommend DeNoise enough.
Often these things don't work, but the fact you were both in the same room and it really came over as a genuine conversation, was absolutely the key to success. Very enjoyable. Thanks.
I love these discussion videos and this one covers an excellent range of topics. Thank you for sharing, your time and enthusiasm is appreciated and inspiring. I am looking forward to your videos and photography from this trip, both of you. Best wishes
Hi Mads, thank you for your talk with Nigel on techniques. After watching you and Nigel for some time now, I have not used ND grad filters. How good is that! More time to compose. The other thing I have learnt is the value of focus stacking over using the Hyperfocal point. As you said with a full frame, the foreground is never as sharp. I have a Canon EOS 6 Mk2, but I wish I had a mirrorless! Please don't forget us DSLR photographers, as the photo magazines have. Nigel said he used focus stacking without a tripod. Wish I could. Unless I am missing something. Thank you both again for the wealth of knowledge I am gaining from your skills. Best regards, Michael
Now after having binged all sorts of RUclips videos from different creators, I imagined this segment to be funny to use the ranking by class from S to D format 😂 excellent video and extremely informative!
Would a few videos or a course on “How to print photos” be a possibility? I find printing a daunting subject - so much to learn from printer selection, through paper characteristics, costs, etc. Thank you both for your wisdom and skills. 😊
That was a very nice Q&A and a very fun video to watch! You guys obviously had a lot of fun together, great to see 2 of my favourite landscape photographers having fun together like this.
Dream-team! More of this :) You are my favourite photo-youtubers, I cannot miss a single video from the two of you, and learned so much from you and your amazing educational products.
So great to see you both in the same video, more of that ! You both have been my greatest source of inspiration for about 3 years now and my photography has improved a lot (Still have a long way to go thou )
happy to see you both in a conversation, hope you guys stay safe and healthy always, great content by the way, from Philippines with ❤️👌. you guys inspired me always that's why i keep on taking pictures using only my mobile phone, can't afford a gear for now, maybe later.
With respect to what you said about using something like hyperfocal distance vs focus stacking, I don't like it when, describing depth of field, people often say that everything within that range is sharp. I prefer to say that things in that range are NOT unsharp. But things are certainly not equally sharp because subjects at the boundaries of the depth of field are on the very verge of being unacceptably unsharp. Only subjects at the distance being focused are optimally sharp.
I have taken photos with ISO at 2000 for handheld macros and over 6400 without any issue the Canon R5 dose a great job with controlling noise at High ISO Im ok at taking flowers / macros to how I want but landscapes I find hard. I see what I want but never get it how it looked. On day Ill have to take a master class LOL so someone can show me where im going wrong but time / work / family at the min is hard. enjoyed the Nigel and you chat as I follow both of you
One thing about lower Iso, You do get lesser artifact and sharper images and more information in the dark area and the highlights, Since the exposure difference are not that big. But lower ISO like L64 does have more details. I use it alot, since that is the kind of picture I like. The dynamic of low and highligth. The one stop of DR, doesnt mean much anyway, since you also looses DR at higher ISO and not many complain about that. Personally I would actually highly reccomend it. Just looks way better at high dynamic scenes. Where the high and lowlights are that, that create the picture. That you can shoot in one shot. There are times where you can even shoot l64 handheld. With image stabillisations and depth of field awareness, so you can get the aperture open as possible.
Thank you for this epic video! So much valuable information between the two of you! I hope you continue to share your insights for landscape photography together. Great way to start the day with your smiling faces talking photography! LOVE ❤the swan photo! I need to print some of my images...🙂
That image of you on the sandbars is one of my favourite images from this year Mads. Likewise I don't mind editing a lot, as I get a lot of enjoyment from the editing process partly from the enjoyment of seeing the image coming to life and also from the point of continuous learning
I edit all my raw photos as I agree they all need to be edited. I even go back and edit my old JPEG images as they look better edited than non edited. Since I usually do landscape photography with hiking groups I have to use hand held and photograph fast.
Great chat, great tips and great advice as always from two of a number of great photographers that I follow religiously. I think my photography has improved enormously in the last two years from listening to you guys. “It doesn’t get better than this” 👍 The Swan image is a stunner Mads 👌
I'm so confused. I'm watching Mads channel but we're in Nigel's studio. That was strange. However, I loved the video. You guys brought up so many points that I can relate to my own photography. Case in point. I don't like tripods but I used one for a sunrise shot yesterday because it was necessary. When I was editing I realized that, like Mads mentioned, my tripod had grown roots. All my shots, whether landscape or portrait, were from the same perspective. Whereas if it was possible to shoot handheld I would have moved around more. Guess I need to work on that.
Great chat guys, really enjoyed it. Since moving from my Canon 600d to the R6 I have found I am doing most shots handheld with ISO of up to 6400. Agree with the printing side too, using the Canon Pro-300 to print my shots and put them up on the wall or giving them to family and friends has been really rewarding.
One I think you missed which is very important to learn shooting into the sun! Taking the photos in the field can be tricky and processing them at home is also hard when you first start to practice this technique .

Three times on my comment for this video alone - all reported so hopefully they’ll get sorted out soon

When 2 epic RUclipsrs get together to do a video,it ends up being legendary.
To quote Nigel. It doesn't get better than this.
So fun watching the two of you interact.

Absolutely great video guys. I was watching it at 1:30am, sad I know, but never dropped an eyelid it was so riveting.
I owe these two . Lockdown was a pain for many , i sat through 100s of hours of their RUclips videos and podcasts for which i will be eternally grateful , it was therapy , and still is ! Thankyou fellas .
I am so happy to hear we helped you through such a terrible time! 🙏
Can you imagine being in class with these two? Heavenly thanks for this video.
Fun watching the two of you together. It’s so neat that you are friends. Two of my favorite RUclips channels!

Thank you so muh for such a kind comment, William! RUclips has increased the exchange of information quite a lot! :D
A great conversation boys. Interesting topics ..... shows how there is no "one size fits all" in photography. Thanks for sharing!

Nigel and Mads my two favorites landscape photographers. Nice Day.
Cheers from Bordeaux 🍷📷
Thanks guys enjoyed the collaboration 😀
It’s good to have you both in one place, at least once.!!!
I just love you two! You’ve taught me so much since the pandemic changed me from an occasional photographer to a total photography nut! Also, Mads, every time I hear you I just looooove your accent! Aarhus? I have friend from there, and he sounds exactly like you.
Haha, thank you so much, Caroline. Yes, Aarhus indeed 😁
Two of my favorite RUclipsrs together, how epic. It can’t get any better than this.😎
Wow, wow, wow. What fun to watch two great photographers share a table and their thoughts on photography. Loved it!!
Agree with most of the comments here. Nigel and Mads are my two favorite landscape RUclipsrs. I have learned so much from both of them in the short time I’ve taken up photography.

Always nice to hear two top notch photographers heaving a chat about, well, what else then photography. :)
It helps to expand our knowledge base.
Oh my I enjoyed this conversation with two of my favorites!!! Nigel, so glad to see you feeling better, and Mads, see you in March sir! 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks a lot, Robert! See you sir ;)
WoW, ... my favorite photographers in one show. Love it.
WONDERFUL to see you both together:). When are you coming to the States to do a talk? (and bring James:))😊
My two favourite photographers, very enjoyable video!
Yes, gents, I tend to agree with filters, avoid like the plague except for waterfall, ICM, perhaps leaf shine
The two of you together?!
"It doesn't get better than this"
"Absolutely EPIC"!
😁
Thanks to you both!
(Btw about printing: i have my best shots of the year printed as a big (the photo's about 35×50cm) year-calendar)
Works great for regulary look at your best shots on a daily basis...
Thanks again Nigel & Mads!
For me, comp is dependent on the purpose of the photo. Sometimes a shot is for the memory and though there are imperfections the brain brings back the other elements (sun on my shoulders, smell of the woods, sound of the birds) that made it a memorable scene. If the shot is for public consumption only, then the comp must be geared towards visual appeal only.
Love having two incredibly talented photographers together!
Best morning surprise! My two favorite landscape photographers. Very informative discussion.
Great video, thank you both!
I totally agree with Nigel and have to say: a photo isn't a photo until it's been printed, it's just an image.
Excellent! Just excellent! Thank you.
That was really great! So wonderful to simply sit on the edge of a conversation between two wonderful easy going photographers. Loved it. My take away was around the using of compositional techniques not as rules but as tools. Loved that. That image on the sand bars . . . . .yeah wow . . . . .

Simply the best way to start the day! Many thanks guys 😊

Much more to come :D
This is great - 2 of my favourite tubers talking so much sense! Thank you.
So great to see you both in the same video, more of that ! You both have been my greatest source of inspiration for about 3 years now and my photography has improved a lot (Still have a long way to go thou )
Excellent! Two of my favorite pros to listen to.. thanks for sharing.
happy to see you both in a conversation, hope you guys stay safe and healthy always, great content by the way, from Philippines with ❤️👌. you guys inspired me always that's why i keep on taking pictures using only my mobile phone, can't afford a gear for now, maybe later.
Great video Mads. Especially the printing section. What a dynamic duo, like Batman and Robin. It’s up to you who is who. 👍
EPIC - It really DOESN'T get any better than this! 😉
Absolutely brilliant guys. I've learnt so much! Thank you

Hi guys, Thanks for your helpful video. Perhaps the highlight was your slogan: "Respect Light".
Wisdom! Invaluable. Thanks.
Absolutely awesome!!! Two of my favourite landscape photographers. Great discussions.
Great to hear your thoughts on these! Very interesting and helpful as always! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Great conversation!
I have taken photos with ISO at 2000 for handheld macros and over 6400 without any issue the Canon R5 dose a great job with controlling noise at High ISO
Im ok at taking flowers / macros to how I want but landscapes I find hard. I see what I want but never get it how it looked.
On day Ill have to take a master class LOL so someone can show me where im going wrong but time / work / family at the min is hard.
enjoyed the Nigel and you chat as I follow both of you
Thanks for the video!
One thing about lower Iso, You do get lesser artifact and sharper images and more information in the dark area and the highlights, Since the exposure difference are not that big. But lower ISO like L64 does have more details. I use it alot, since that is the kind of picture I like. The dynamic of low and highligth. The one stop of DR, doesnt mean much anyway, since you also looses DR at higher ISO and not many complain about that. Personally I would actually highly reccomend it. Just looks way better at high dynamic scenes. Where the high and lowlights are that, that create the picture. That you can shoot in one shot. There are times where you can even shoot l64 handheld. With image stabillisations and depth of field awareness, so you can get the aperture open as possible.
Absolutely great discussion. 👍 My two favourites 😍 🤩🤩🤩🤩 Thanks so much guys.
Excellent video! I hope you two will do more of these in the future.
That was an excellent chat with some good down to earth opinions and advice.
Thank you for this epic video! So much valuable information between the two of you! I hope you continue to share your insights for landscape photography together. Great way to start the day with your smiling faces talking photography! LOVE ❤the swan photo! I need to print some of my images...🙂
Tak, Thank you :)
This was a great episode/vlog. Great to sit and listen to what you guys prefer. Keep up the great content 👍🏻
That image of you on the sandbars is one of my favourite images from this year Mads. Likewise I don't mind editing a lot, as I get a lot of enjoyment from the editing process partly from the enjoyment of seeing the image coming to life and also from the point of continuous learning
I edit all my raw photos as I agree they all need to be edited. I even go back and edit my old JPEG images as they look better edited than non edited. Since I usually do landscape photography with hiking groups I have to use hand held and photograph fast.
great video! always interesting to hear two photographers talk. you can always learn a lot from it.
Great candid discussion. Just put of curiousity, what print viewing light is that in the left background?
Great conversation with lots of tips.
Great chat, great tips and great advice as always from two of a number of great photographers that I follow religiously. I think my photography has improved enormously in the last two years from listening to you guys. “It doesn’t get better than this” 👍 The Swan image is a stunner Mads 👌
Thank you ever so much, Garry! :)
I'm so confused. I'm watching Mads channel but we're in Nigel's studio. That was strange. However, I loved the video. You guys brought up so many points that I can relate to my own photography. Case in point. I don't like tripods but I used one for a sunrise shot yesterday because it was necessary. When I was editing I realized that, like Mads mentioned, my tripod had grown roots. All my shots, whether landscape or portrait, were from the same perspective. Whereas if it was possible to shoot handheld I would have moved around more. Guess I need to work on that.
Great chat guys, really enjoyed it. Since moving from my Canon 600d to the R6 I have found I am doing most shots handheld with ISO of up to 6400. Agree with the printing side too, using the Canon Pro-300 to print my shots and put them up on the wall or giving them to family and friends has been really rewarding.
Very nice guys! Really enjoyed the video. 😊
One I think you missed which is very important to learn shooting into the sun! Taking the photos in the field can be tricky and processing them at home is also hard when you first start to practice this technique .
Dejlig samtale mellem dygtige fotografer! Giver god bevidsthed om vigtige emner.
