Made my first trip to your fantastic island in June and video's like this were a major contributor to the decision. Spent all of our 4 days in the Southern part but am hooked. Can't wait for an opportunity to return! You, good sir, are truly an inspiration! Thank you!!
Thanks for taking us along! I am from the Fraser Valley but I live on the other side of the Rockies now. Your hikes through the coastal forest brings me home. Thanks!
Great video, Adam! I always enjoy going on your adventures without the hard effort that goes into setting up camera, walk by, walk back, get camera, setup again, walk by… repeat 10 times! Take care!
Hi from France Adam, Thanks for sharing your hikes. I really enjoy this new format. You must be a hell of a hiker to shoot those videos : all the walking up and down they involve to film yourself and get something coherent 👏👏👏. And as I probably never go to Canada, I really enjoy discovering Vancouver Island trough your eyes. 👍
Good morning Adam. Made me smile to see you exploring one of my favourite areas on the Island. And yes, you were at the correct little scramble above you. The high point you could see above you is where I camp, there’s usually no water but that means less bugs. And 360 degree views, including a beautiful view of the main summit of Tom Taylor and the glacier below.
Dear Adam, thank you so much for this Present, full of positive energy, much appreciated after a long working day! Looking forward to reading your last book, purchased some months ago 😉
Wow, just finished watching, what a spectacular trip! Thank you for all the effort you put into sharing the beauty of our little home called earth, it makes a difference!
I am utterly stunned. That was a wonderful video, great images, fabulous location. I envy you being able to make these trips. Thank you for taking us along.
I'm really enjoying this newer type of video - the scenery on these hikes of yours is amazing. I'm guessing Dan is quite happy with the 'free' advertising as well 🙂 😉
I really appreciate that you included the RAW file information. It really helps me to learn a lot, and helps me to make better decisions. Those mountains you’re in on this video are similar to my local mountains here in northwest Montana. I try to only carry one lens on those multi-day backpacking trips and find a wide angle zoom (16-80 range) to be most useful in these mountains. Other mountains I’ve been in seem better suited to telephoto zooms (70-210 range).
Great video. I have backpacked to Bedwell Lakes and Cream Lake which is another great place to camp. Looking forward to more of your outdoor adventures.
Dreamy trail and images! Definitely worth the cold to avoid the bugs I'm sure, though you could probably use a Sherpa buddy to help carry warmer equipment. I imagine it would be hard to carry any more weight by yourself on a hike like that, even though you are very fit! Great production!!
Some lovely Autumnal images, Adam. Bedwell Lake certainly is a lovely area. I haven't been there for quite a few years now, but I got some great images on the way up towards Mt Septimus (which included views to distant Della Falls) that adorned my walls for many years. You're inspiring me to do more in the area - I've been looking at Parker Ridge for a while and will aim to do that next year once the snow melts. And I've found that quite a lot of the "trails" in Strathcona are basically scrambling routes.
13:18 your tent zipper isn't down all the way, you said you were worried about wind with your tent and having it not fully zipped puts pressure on the zipper and could cause it to fail! The trip looks awesome though, beautiful area
Enjoying these trips alot. Beautiful intro with just music and the hike. With regards to the cold nights in the tent I may have a solution for you. I've used the Thermo Pads that you can use vor back pain. In addition you can use the Thermo Pads for the foot soles. Worked great for me and it lasts 6 hours and did not add any weight to the back pack. Thanks vor taking us with you on the trips
Beautyfull shots Adam . You live in a wonderfull part of Canada and you do a great job showing it with your photos . ( I wonder why Gavin moved so far a way ...)
Glad you’re back out in the woods. Fall is incredibly beautiful in the north west. Always enjoy your videos. I noticed you were not driving the photo bus. New truck?
Great stuff! I just recently moved to the Island, after spending over 25-years filming across Alberta your work has really been inspiring for me to get out and explore. It would be great to sit down and do an interview with you one day!
At times, when out on Vancouver Island I wonder, what is Adam up to this weekend? Love this ultralight phase you’re going through. Great stuff! ………“New” vehicle?
Really stunning photos, Adam! As usual. On Day 3 how do you lighten and brighten the trees and related forestry while maintaining the blue sky? Do you mask each of them and then edit them individually? And, I can’t remember if you ever use Capture One Pro? Thanks so much for all you share!
I do not understand how this video is 5 hrs long. Such a nice hike and views! Adam, I just hurt ny knee and being using trekking poles. But ai just saw your tripod/monopod/trekking pole. What brand/model is it? Thanks (I have only seen this in cheap crappy tripods)
@@QuietLightPhoto for us hikers and photographers it is very interesting but I have always only found things of very poor quality... I look forward to the next video!!!
This is what it's all about. Out in the mountains. The photography is a bonus.
Thanks!
Adam - I'm really enjoying you new change in focus of these videos. Great trips and excellent images. Thank you
Great to hear!
I’m really enjoying your recent videos, I love the mountains ❤

The light on some of the images in the video is outstandingly beautiful. Thank you for sharing. 😊
My pleasure 😊
Beautiful in every way!
Thank you! Cheers!
I really like your new approach in videos. It's so relaxing and refreshing
Oh thank you!
As always- great video! Regular follower here, watching over your shoulder from across the Strait, Olympic Nat'l Pk, Port Angeles, WA., USA! Be safe!
So enjoyed this video. Your shots of this beautiful area are outstanding!
Thanks so much!
Wow Adam, beautiful shots of amazing trees and landscapes, your work greatly inspires my bonsai!!!!
Happy to hear that!

Video of a trip, complete with challenges and scenery, then the uninterrupted payoff of beautiful photos. Brilliant!

Thanks for a lovely breakfast accompaniment! Great way to start the day. (My wife gives me hell whenever I do something like that alone )
MMMM Toyota 😊 Love the tiny island at 4:28 🤩 a beautiful adventure 🙂
The best!
Enjoyed it very much, Adam. Beautiful scenery!!
Great hike, beautiful scenery and images. So peaceful to watch! Great work Adam.

Enjoy seeing you in the mountains. Such beautiful views. You seem invigorated.
Yes, thank you
Love seeing the beautiful scenery, something we have none of here in Lousyana ... stunning.
Beautiful colours
Butyfull scenery you catch there

Scrambles! That’s for sure
Very impressive hike Adam. Thanks for sharing
My pleasure!
Beautiful images. Seems to me that you are going deeper in the wilderness recently. We see more uncommon scenary, thank you.
Great thanks for sharing!
My pleasure!
Day three images super nice
Thank you! Cheers!
That's a beaut ute you have there Gibbsy. A Toyota as well, so it should be able to handle those bumpy roads without falling apart.
Great video - beautiful shots with fall colours but a little surprised you cropped out those snow-capped peaks. Smart not going up further.
Thanks 👍
13:18 your tent zipper isn't down all the way, you said you were worried about wind with your tent and having it not fully zipped puts pressure on the zipper and could cause it to fail! The trip looks awesome though, beautiful area
Thanks!
Thanks, Adam, for taking us along! The photos are great. I have a question - what was the total weight of your backpack?
28lb
Enjoying these trips alot. Beautiful intro with just music and the hike. With regards to the cold nights in the tent I may have a solution for you. I've used the Thermo Pads that you can use vor back pain. In addition you can use the Thermo Pads for the foot soles.

Thanks for the tips!
The essence of the North West landscape.
Beautyfull shots Adam . You live in a wonderfull part of Canada and you do a great job showing it with your photos . ( I wonder why Gavin moved so far a way ...)
Glad you’re back out in the woods. Fall is incredibly beautiful in the north west. Always enjoy your videos. I noticed you were not driving the photo bus. New truck?
Yep new vehicle
Great stuff! I just recently moved to the Island, after spending over 25-years filming across Alberta your work has really been inspiring for me to get out and explore. It would be great to sit down and do an interview with you one day!
Sure happy to do so

Yes new wheels

I’ll often increase the exposure and mid tones and bring down the highlights. Then add a small curve for contrast.9
@@QuietLightPhoto Thanks Adam for the instructions! Much appreciated.
Have you ever encountered bears on such tours? I don't think it's entirely safe in these regions
Sure lots of times. Bears are misunderstood on the whole they stick to themselves and avoid human contact.
Hello Adam, where did you get the handle to turn your tripod leg into a walking stick?
FLM I’ll put out a video about the tripod this week
I do not understand how this video is 5 hrs long. Such a nice hike and views!
Adam, I just hurt ny knee and being using trekking poles. But ai just saw your tripod/monopod/trekking pole. What brand/model is it? Thanks
(I have only seen this in cheap crappy tripods)
FLM I’ll have a video out this week about the tripod
beautiful place and great photographs. What happened to Delica?
I still have it
No GFX for this one? The drop in quality on the X-S20 and 16-80 is surprisingly (or maybe unsurprisingly?) pronounced!
You're welcome to come along and carry the system for me.
Nice video as always! still using Osmo pocket 3 for vlogging? what is your opinion after quite some time of using it? thank you :)
For sure, I use it all of the time. It’s a nice bit of kit
Beautiful video Adam! Did you see any wildlife up there?
Not on this trip
Is it? Could it be? No. Adam didn't get a new truck did he?
I was wondering the same thing!
Adam joined the Toyota Tacoma Club? Not exclusive, we let anybody in😊.
Is it a new old truck? 😫
I guess 2023
Tripod/mountain stick????? Great….brand?
FLM I’ll have a video out about it this week stay tuned
@@QuietLightPhoto for us hikers and photographers it is very interesting but I have always only found things of very poor quality... I look forward to the next video!!!
Have you been hanging around with Thomas Heaton 😁. 7 minutes.
Not lately
@ Oh! I thought you might have collaborating with Capt. B Roll 👍😀
