    I just love watching your videos Adam. Your enthusiasm for your photography is inspiring. Ive watched your videos since I started my Photography 7 years ago and I can totally relate to you when you get excited about what is unfolding in front of you. I get excited when I see a new video out. Looking forward to the next one

    I so relate to all this, Adam. I hauled my fat arse out of bed an hour before dawn on Sunday and drove out to a beautiful place in freezing cold shit weather, only to be greeted by a blanket of grey. But I waited and waited, and then waited a some more. Two hours later, the sun broke through the clouds and the light was BLOODY EPIC. The universe rewarded me for my dogged determination and patience. It was glorious, and I laughed all the way home. Three lessons I re-learned: 1. Get out the door. 2. Ignore the weather forecast. 3. Don’t quit too early. 😊

      Sounds awesome. You're right too.......The weather forecast can be useful but should be ignored more often than not.

    Hi Adam, I have watched most of your content and continue to be inspired by your honesty and decency. Again a wonderful experience watching you doing your thing as you were eaten alive. You are so right about often losing the desire to get out there but once you push yourself it is always worth the effort. Keep up the good work. Take care 🙂🙂

    You will never remember the time you stayed in your bed, but you will remember this morning with this light in a few years. A morning with this light allows you to create "magical panoramas". Thank you for sharing these beautiful conditions.

    Having that scenery at your doorstep must be incredible, I live in Norfolk and a mole hill is about as extreme as it gets soooo keep pushing, keep producing the wonderful content you make and keep your spirits up. Honestly you’ve helped me loads already with the process of shot making and printing, that in itself should inspire you to keep moving forwards :)

    Wow Adam! - Thank you so very much for bringing us along. Oh the bugs - we have them a lot in the midwest USA. We use "dryer sheets and a product called "Bug Soother" and it works the best. Both as a golfter and landscape photographer, bugs are the worst. I usually will spray (BS) on my clothing and the dryer sheets I just place one in the back of my hat and belt (the more, the better) they work. Stay cool. :o)

    I thought I had experienced a great sunset on the Mendips a few weeks ago, but that sunset you captured was another level; nice work. I can certainly identify with your message about being out there and in the moment. I have wildflowers under foot, birds singing and a sky that I will remember for a very long time. Best of all, I bagged a great bonus image on the way to my sunset location too. Makes up for the dull days and unproductive mid-summer blues.

I’m on Teeside this weekend and had a damp start to the day at Whitby this morning and heading to Redcar tomorrow morning but irrespective of what I capture, being out is the main benefit with the opportunity to savour the start of a new day and as you said to put things into a perspective 🙂

    Well said. Beauty is all around, and it's always a fear that beauty should be captured as it deserves. Most of the time, I feel that way as I find nature so beautiful. I am always afraid to capture it through my lenses and let others experience it as I see through my eyes and experience it live. You have done justice to momentary beauty by capturing it so beautifully and sharing it visually and verbally so amazingly. Thank you.

  • @trevorsneath4665
    @trevorsneath4665 7 месяцев назад

    You only experience amazing sunset vistas like this if you go out to see them. That was a superb sunset shot, and while it might happen in a similar way some time in the future, you have the proof that it happened at least once. And you were there to see it.
    I love photography, it's one of the best motivations for going outside because you get to bring home a 'concrete' memory of the adventure to look at and share.
    Cheers Adam.

    Very nice! At 6:53 you have the photo of the dead tree with the puffy clouds on the branches. With the cotton grass it looks like they are paying homage to an ancient ancestor.
    i have a question but I think the answer is obvious but when bracketing an image and a panorama , do you merge the bracketed images first then merge the panorama?

    • @Firstmanphotography
      @Firstmanphotography  7 месяцев назад

      It's a good question.....i've had little success with it in the past. On this occasion i allowed Lightroom to combine them all at once, HDR and pano. It did work but some of the edges of the mountains looked a bit funny. In the end i combined the HDR's first and then did the pano and this gave a better result. Took a bit longer, but well worth it.
