When Full Frame Isn't Enough For Landscape Photography

    Can you believe this guy? First, he insults my channel, he then proceeds to educate me and my audience whether we want it or not. Are all 'birders' like this?
    What starts out as a dazzling landscape photography vlog at Hopewell Rocks turns into a risky midnight adventure under the stars with a notoriously dangerous tide.
    Not only do I have to contend with Simon d'Entremont schooling Amanda and me about birds, but a cheeky troll shows up to namedrop my competitors. At least my new Sigma 14-24mm wide angle lens puts everyone else to shame.
    I do however have the last laugh as my world-class impersonation of a bald eagle leaves Simon awestruck at my brilliance.
    After framing up a killer shot of the most amazing sea stacks in Canada, I'm forced to deal with some technical challenges that mean the difference between a portfolio piece or total failure.
    Can I rise to the challenge? Will Simon ever turn off his red light and does Amanda really enjoy the taste of raw seaweed?
    There's really only one way to find out.
    Hit play, then hit like.

    Very hilarious footage with Simon who had a real hard time keeping a straight face. I am following many photographers, many of whom are in Great Britain and northern Europe. However, this channel here has got to be the funniest, while being very informative. The fact that both Gavin Hardcastle and Simon d'Entremont are fellow Canadians is just icing on the cake.

    Hey Gavin, enjoyed the video. I am the photographer with the bucket/pole. It is actually a blue bucket that is painted black. For a number of years, I taught nightscape photography at this location. There is a stretch of approximately 5 nights every two weeks when the tides accommodate being down there just after full dark. Unfortunately, park policy has changed and access is now forbidden after the park closes for the evening.

I am a wildlife photog at heart so I have been a follower of Simon's from his beginnings. But, recently I have really gotten into landscape, mainly because of Adam, but, that's besides the point. LOL!!! I love your work, really I do, and your videos, so much more entertaining than Adam's, he's so dry, so British. Ha! All joking aside, I always look forward to your new videos, you and Amanda are the bomb! Best wishes.

    Hi Amanda,
    Relieved to see that you are hanging on in there in sunny Nova Scillities. I find I’m slightly missing those clips where you send your van driver Gawain off on perilous, pointless quests to very remote lookouts. When he remembers to drag the camera away from his face and point it at the scenery, he gets some surprisingly adequate snaps! Isn’t Photoshop amazing. Do remember to follow Gawain’s example and bulk up in time for the imminent winter. Maybe gather lots of straw too, because it’s going to be cold hibernating in your huge new shed. Chin up and keep smiling!

    "orange sand and mud..." that's because the majority of the upper end of the Bay of Fundy, like Hopewell Rocks, are sedimentary rocks, as opposed to the Oregon and Washington coast are igneous basalts. I've owned the Sigma 14-24mm F2.8 lens for two years, and it's my most used lens and I use it for astrophotography, but I want a Sigma 24mm F1.4 for wide angle astrophotography. For deeper sky images, I want the Sigma 135mm F1.8. You'll want to get a Kase drop-in light pollution filter that fits in right in front of your sensor for any lens including the Sigma 14-24mm F2.8, or if you don't have the huge bulbous lens attached get a Nisi or Kase square 100mm x 100mm light pollution filter on a filter system bracket, getting rid of the wavelengths of light associated with sodium, mercury vapour and LED street lights, will take care of most light pollution that messes up astrophotos. WIth the 500 rule and a 40mm lens, if you don't want star trails and relatively pin point stars your maximum exposure time is a shutter speed = 500 / focal length, that's just 12.5 seconds. Now if you want to get 5 minutes of integration time you can use free software like Deep Sky Stacker to stack multiple exposures to get 50 minutes, you'll need 24 exposures.
