That looked so blissful Thomas and what a great way to be detached from the madness of the world and be immersed in nature. Hope you and your family have a good Christmas and thank you for all the work you have put in and shared over the past year
I find myself enjoying your process of taking the image than the image themselves. Perhaps, end results actually doesn't matter anymore. The travels, the preparations, the lead up and the joy of just being there is enough for me to be hooked to the channel :)
This is precisely why I watch. A photograph is the tip of an iceberg, with so much experience hidden beneath the surface. I love that this channel explores that experience.
I'd kill to be in the middle of nowhere right now. Looks lovely there. Nice minimalist Portra shots too. Congratulations on half a million subscribers Tom!
The videos are just perfection. Really liked the sounds of changing the settings on the lens. It's all so immersive and soothing. Amazing picture of the grass on the dunes; you can almost feel the bits of warmth from the sun.
Nice ambiance on those beach shots. Your right, it's often not the objective weather a hill or a picture. It's the soaking up the environment. . . . Love your van shots. My Deli has not the camperized interior but I still love it...made me smile that your wipers are as loud as mine!
Watching your videos sometimes takes me twice as long, cause I get inspired to revisit some of my photos (this time of the estuary at Borth -y-Gest), then get thirsty seeing your cuppas! Nice peaceful scenes.
A nice blissful and peaceful morning-- The shots that took me were the drone shots with dark ribbons of water against the sand-- was just a quick "B" roll shot but that was more to my liking-- The pics of the beach and estuary were just to blah in color and scope for my taste-- I hope you and yours have a Merry Christmas and a safe and happy New Year.
If your shoes, boots, wellys are wet, you should stuff newspapers inside to soak up the wetness and maybe change every time, also a good way to get off smells.
Your joy is infectious. I get pockets of time like that and it keeps me sane. You look so happy and content. I am so pleased for you. Thanks for all your hard work on these vlogs. Must be exhausting. God bless you. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Beautiful journey Thomas, the scenery is stunning and you captured some nice ones. Just noticed you are now over 500K subscribers, congratulations and well earned.
Just loved the calming effect of the estuary photography that through your video reached all the way up to Belgium! Thank you so much for this and wishing you a beautiful Christmas and a 2022 filled with beautiful light! My favourite photograph of the series: image 5, just love the soft pastel colours and the s-curves bringing you all the way to the feeders in the distance! great work!
When you shoot in remote locations, and we see tiny snow-covered villages in the Himalayas or wind-swept houses huddled on shorelines in the Outer Hebrides, I wonder about the people living in these dwellings. The photos you make are evocative of nature, color and form, but also of lives lived just beyond the horizon of our imagination. Thank you for inviting us along on these journeys.
This is how I feel so often on on my photographic ventures Tom. Just being out and Being There, not always getting a great shot, is really what its all about.........
Tom thank you for being such an inspiration to so many again this year, you have bought back fond memories for some, calmed others in such a mad world we are currently living in and encouraging others by your own actions. Thank you for all that you are and all that you give to others without probably realizing it. Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to you and your family.
Thomas I was there a few years ago, its a dream for photography, great shots. Even when the light does not go your way, you always make up with some good grub lol.
Peet boot dryer will dry your boots in about 4 hours and you can also get pair of glove dryer attachments cost between $25 to $40 U.S. depending on sales or seller.
After a long night of caring for very sick people i watch your videos and your photography has a real calming affect on me. Thanks you minimalistic photos are my relaxation therapy.
Haha, for me the "relaxation therapy" is in the morning (since his videos come out overnight here)...I watch his latest episodes over a cup of coffee and it sets me in a calm mood for the day
Lovely stuff, Love the way the water shapes the estuary. really liked this one. You are turning out a full length vid thats not boring and is very high quality. a big thank you.
Super video Thomas. The images were stunning, such a beautiful place. Luskintyre ? l think. Easy to get lost in in the moments of such a beautiful place and no one around. Thank you as always for sharing your information. Take care Alioban
Absolutely love your minimalist perspective. Strangely the images are both zenful and exciting at the same time! Merry Merry Christmas to you and your family! Take care and be safe out there….
I really enjoyed this video Thomas. It brought me back to a simpler and stress-free time in my life when I could afford to take things slow and enjoy a beautiful place like that at my own pace. My grandfather was from Scotland, and while I’ve never been, these videos really make me want to visit some day. Even the rain has some appeal to me as it adds to the sense of remoteness of that location.
I have had this exact problem this week. Thank you for the inspiration to still get out there and do it! Once again, I just want to give you a nod of appreciation for the B-roll. Don't think we don't notice the time that goes into it 😉
Lovely shots, reminds me of an estuary, river in Victoria Australia Called Tidal River which has tanin in the water with amazing colour. Merry Christmas fro Australia
Hi Thomas, your videos are always so calming and peaceful. Thank you for the great content. I am a beginner photographer and love shooting landscapes. I have leaned a lot from you. Thank you again.
That looked so peaceful and calm. What a great way to spend your time. Lovely images as well. Although, I'm sure your feet must have been cold after filling your wellies with water. Merry Christmas to you, Charlotte, Monty and your families. Thank you for all you do and the hard work you do and share with all of us. All the best for 2022 and I look forward to more amazing photography and adventures.
am I the only one that thinks your cooking looks amazing? Could start a campervan cooking series hehehe. BTW I appreciate your showing your top photos at the end.
This is pretty damn inspiring, flat lighting which may have caused some to leave the camera in the car but still getting out and enjoying the scenery has proved that you need to be able to ‘see’ your images to get results, not my strongest point. Great video, thank you Thomas.
Yeah that’s something I personally have to remind myself…that’s it’s not always about the final image, it’s about being out and connecting with nature. Thanks Tom
Zen is right! It was obvious that you were having a wonderful day. Never mind the light letting you down at the end, it happens. Lovely shots, beautiful and minimal!
What's wrong with you man? "Never taken a shot of a dune that I'm happy with". The cover of your amazing (and much treasured) book is a bloody great image of a sand dune! Love the minimalist images in this video, Tom. Lubbly-dubbly.
I used to shoot a Bronica C back in the day. This video brings back fond memories. The $25 dollar per 12 shot roll for film brings back other memories. It was my inability to make my own prints that eventually killed off that line of endeavor. I still admire the aesthetic however. I always wanted to shoot an 8X10 view camera for scenes like this. I have to say that coming from the Mojave desert the reference to a dry morning for these shots was slightly disconcerting.
One of your best videos this year, I’d definitely go for more tipping water out of a welly moments. So serene and wonderful images. I’m booked to go to Harris in April and I’m even more looking forward to it than before
There's something about your videos that puts me out in the field while watching. Every Wednesday night about 11:30 i sit down with a little snack and watch your video. Then off to bed and dream of the next photography adventure.
much liked the gentle soft muted colours, and especially those colours in the grasses image, were perfect. nice that it all flowed and was such an enjoyable shoot for you. love film, don't know why but it just does it for me. thank you for a year of brilliant, fun videos; am so grateful to you. merry christmas to you and yours. 💡⭐️
That looked so blissful Thomas and what a great way to be detached from the madness of the world and be immersed in nature. Hope you and your family have a good Christmas and thank you for all the work you have put in and shared over the past year
First 10 minutes of that video where brilliant, pure bliss, lovely music, scenery and images. Love it.
I find myself enjoying your process of taking the image than the image themselves.
Perhaps, end results actually doesn't matter anymore. The travels, the preparations, the lead up and the joy of just being there is enough for me to be hooked to the channel :)
That certainly takes the pressure off.
This is precisely why I watch. A photograph is the tip of an iceberg, with so much experience hidden beneath the surface. I love that this channel explores that experience.
I'd kill to be in the middle of nowhere right now. Looks lovely there. Nice minimalist Portra shots too. Congratulations on half a million subscribers Tom!
Love the Zen..... I totally get that vibe, thanks Thomas!
The colours from the Portra are just stunning.
A very enjoyable and zen movie including the soundtrack. It excels at its atmosphere. Beautiful.
What a magical place to just be in the moment plus great photos too
Watched this before my shift working Christmas in the NHS. Relaxed me no end.
a man who can find zen with one wet cold foot is truly focused 😇
Photography for the soul-very nice too!
The videos are just perfection. Really liked the sounds of changing the settings on the lens. It's all so immersive and soothing. Amazing picture of the grass on the dunes; you can almost feel the bits of warmth from the sun.
One of my favourites from you in a long time Tom.
Very chilled and enjoyable Thomas.
Love the spot you stopped been there several times myself in my van. Love your work on this video
What a life, indeed. Good for you.
How is it possible that i just wondered if you have a new video out 2 minutes ago!? Awesome mate!
Psychic skills ✌️
Your videos always bring me so much serenity and remind me to cherish the process of photo taking rather than just the end result. Thank you for this!
Very peaceful photos. Enjoyed the video Thom. 👍
The moment when you said "what a life!", I replied you won man, you won in life.
Nice ambiance on those beach shots. Your right, it's often not the objective weather a hill or a picture. It's the soaking up the environment. . . . Love your van shots. My Deli has not the camperized interior but I still love it...made me smile that your wipers are as loud as mine!
Watching your videos sometimes takes me twice as long, cause I get inspired to revisit some of my photos (this time of the estuary at Borth -y-Gest), then get thirsty seeing your cuppas! Nice peaceful scenes.
This entire photo shoot needs to be done with the medium format panorama camera. That would be so stunning.
I like the simplicity. Well done 👏
Great video, so polished well done. I'm not forgetting to mention the beautiful images.
Thank you Thomas.
Just beautiful soft on the eyes images Tom, loved it
A nice blissful and peaceful morning-- The shots that took me were the drone shots with dark ribbons of water against the sand-- was just a quick "B" roll shot but that was more to my liking--
The pics of the beach and estuary were just to blah in color and scope for my taste-- I hope you and yours have a Merry Christmas and a safe and happy New Year.
Loved that I could escaped the stress for a few minutes! 😉👍
Almost therapeutic to watch. Very well put together Thank u
When you cracked open the door, I felt the draught here!
Looked like a wonderful outdoor expunged!
Do no know what it was, but this video brought tears to my eye.
I would have never thought that the film and your attitude would have done that.
I'm so pleased you are shooting film as well as digital Thomas 🙂 These are some cracking photo's......... Brilliant vid too 🙂
Great videography and editing. A nice peaceful watch.
"What a life". Says it all really. Enjoyable video Tom.
The estuary looked very blissful
Another simple BUT great VLOG TH!......serenity :)
Love the drone images.
Beautiful, just beautiful. Thank you for sharing, & merry Christmas to you and yours x

My wife bought me your book for Christmas and I’ve got to say it’s brilliant!
Bruce Percy would be proud! Very well done
Nice one! The dune/grass pic was excellent.
You took a fantastic Sand Dune shot Tom, best shot of the video in my opinion, loved the Blues contrasting with the grasses!
Beautiful pictures and an amazing video like always, thank you for sharing we enjoyed it.
Thank you. Merry Christmas and a happy new year. All the best. 👍📷😎

Those days are few and far between but well worth the wait
Holy cow. This is my first video from this channel and i am IN LOVE. Subbed

That first 11 minutes! Mesmerising, hypnotic, immersive!! This could have been one of your best ever videos - many thanks!
Ohhhh that nothingness is my absolute favourite. 😍 You're taking my ideal photography trip! Living vicariously, thank you so much. Love from Canada. 💛
Brilliant

Being immersed in the process of photography in such a blissful natural setting is like heaven. Thanks for your videos. Happy Christmas.

Fantastic. Merry Christmas buddy!

This whole video, was Zenful. Loved the colours of the Film reminds me of the 70's. Total comfort photography. Thanks Tom.
I love the film videos!
Lovely shots, reminds me of an estuary, river in Victoria Australia Called Tidal River which has tanin in the water with amazing colour. Merry Christmas fro Australia

Fantastic work both on video and film.
Harris always provides great light at all times of year 👍
Christmas came early this year🎄thank you for another wonderful and relaxing video!
One of your best videos this year, I’d definitely go for more tipping water out of a welly moments. So serene and wonderful images. I’m booked to go to Harris in April and I’m even more looking forward to it than before
I'm watching you make a fancy meal in your van while I'm eating a microwaved frozen meal at home. LOL!
There's something about your videos that puts me out in the field while watching. Every Wednesday night about 11:30 i sit down with a little snack and watch your video. Then off to bed and dream of the next photography adventure.
Is very fascinating to see when taking pictures. See I have a lot to learn! Wishing you a glorious Christmas Thomas!
Superb!
It’s always wonderful to get lost in the moments of photography
Thanks for sharing again Thomas
Have a great Christmas 🎅
Stay safe 🇦🇺
