Today I head out with a Nikon ZZ II & a 24-70 f2.8 lens. I take my camper van & shoot landscape photography the way that most of us do, which is as and when we can, with limited time & without the luxury of travelling to exotic locations. I hope I can show that even with limited time, dull weather and not so dramatic locations, it is still possible to shoot awesome images. I also injur myself in this video :-/

Happy to report my neck is much much better after a short rest. Calendar pre-orders finish on Friday, so get that free signed print: thomasheaton.co.uk/product/2022-calendar/

I've ordered my copy! Glad your neck is improving, TLC from the wife?

@francisschweitzer8431 2 года назад

Ohh about that neck… I keep a heating pad … you have a large Inverter for the power to cook so the pad will work. Since you have a place to lay down like I do in my semi truck … that heating pad works wonders

Good to know you're okay Tom. Stay safe out there. And thank you for great content, as always.

@sterby1 2 года назад

You are getting old, Thomas, can't deny it, it just shot you in the neck. Also these kind of pains radiate out from the shoulder blade area, it isn't exactly your neck muscles being pulled.

@derekgillan7314 2 года назад

I admire the dedication, driving hundreds of miles, walking miles, then photographing a fern. Love it.

@JeffandLeslie 2 года назад

Preferred the Nikon version by far. Not because of camera but to me the vibrant greens of the fresh ferns was the real story of this image.

@xander1052 2 года назад

yeah, the Infrared for me needs to the balance of the pitch black skies and such to really make it work, it being bright white just doesn't do it for me quite as good as those vibrant greens where you can see the variations in how how green each part of the fern was.

I’m afraid you had a lemon 24-120. Is the 24-70 ever so slightly sharper? Yes, but only toward corners. If the 24-70 is a 10/10 the 24-120 is a 9.7/10.

@RobertSmith-fs5uc 2 года назад

Glad your necks better Tom, definitely not a disastrous end to the video, just the real life and trials of a photographer that we all have as we get older. What makes your videos so great is the unedited truth and honesty you leave in. Looking forward to the new calender 👍

Glad Tom that cured his neck! I really liked the heather location! I even remembered poems from my childhood about the Scottish King! Rowan in the performance of a long trick - just gorgeous! I don't really like short focus myself! As for the fern, then in spite of my love for black and white photography in landscape photography, I choose the color Nikon Z version ... Although I would shoot on Foveon :) Greeting from Saint Petersburg!

@dylanturek8364 Год назад

As an amateur, with 2 kids and a full time job, it's super difficult to take the types of trips I used to in the "before times" (aka in my 20's and early 30's). Tom's videos are a godsend when I don't have time to get out and shoot as much as I'd like and while I love the videos from exotic locations with gorgeous scenery and hiking... it's just not applicable to my situation. I might get somewhere semi exotic once a year during a family vacation and let's be honest, they're not joining me for a 6 night backpacking trip. All this is to say my favorite videos are the ones where Tom goes into a typically ordinary place and finds amazing compositions in all the meh. The boring 10 miles, or whatever that video was called, was the absolutely the most helpful and motivating video I've ever seen on RU-vid. Tom, if you read this, you're super helpful and I appreciate all the hard work you put into making them. If you want a challenge, try going to a few less spectacular places and like (like upstate NY :) and show us how you approach composition in the average viewers domain! Cheers and thanks for all the great content!

Thomas, think about going to a sports therapist every 6 to 8 weeks, we spend loads on servicing cars to make sure we can go places, but we never stretch enough or get reset. i also carry anti inflammatory tablets and paracetamol ( mainly as i'm terrible at remembering to keep hydrated whilst out, and often get a headache). glad it got better though

@justoalejandrogonzalez5097 2 года назад

You know? I'm from Argentina. We have had a magnicide attempt last night and EVERYONE is bat crazy around here, so, sometimes I come to this channel just to hear your voice. So damn calm. Of course, the photography too, but once in a while, it goes to second place. =)

@PaulWilkinson 2 года назад

Over the last 3 years or so, I've had what I thought was a trapped nerve on quite a few occasions. In February this year, I thought I had it again, however, as the week passed, it got so bad I couldn't move my neck, I couldn't walk more than a few metres and I lost all strength in my left arm. I was diagnosed with bicipital tendinitis. All the muscles running from my neck to my shoulder had fused together. I've had 11 visit's to an osteopath and nearly 5 months of physio. I've got some strength back now and I've about 90% manoeuvrability back but I'm still healing and I've another 6 months or so to go. My point is, if you start to get this every so often, go and see someone. I was told that to get this bad it must have been happening for sometime. It had been, I'd just downplayed it. It's only been the last month I've been able to get back out walking with the camera and a very light bag and I've been back driving for 3 months now. You really don't want to let something underlying floor you and take you out of commission. Take care 👍

The Nikkor Z 24-70mm f/2.8 S lens is truly an excellent choice. Of the S lenses I have, it is my favorite.

@millymucci 2 года назад

especially enjoying your photography recently - those incredible, mysterious, b&w, 'best of''s, with that fun looking instaphoto camera, the infrared experimentations and all from the above episode. of close up on the fern, infrared for its unusualness for my eyes but also love the clarity and green of the colour one!

@andrewbrooks2001 Год назад

I liked the wider shot you got of the fern with the video. It was a bright green contrasted against a dark muted background and a mossy foreground. Great video and location

@keithratcliffe5576 2 года назад

I love the colour version but I think with different processing - reduced highlights and more shadows - I would come to like the IR image.

@aliskandari 2 года назад

Oh yes, I looove this lens! Too bad mine got broken in a very inconvenient accident - it still functions, but the zoom ring now takes some additional effort to turn. I traveled to Altay mountains recently, 70-200 2.8gave me mostly everything I needed, but 24-70 proved to be irreplaceable in some cases. Not even by the 50 mm. And the more I learn about photography (20 years in, still learning), the less I use wider lenses

Hi Thomas. You happy to go into autumn, well, I am happy to go into spring here in Australia, sick of the cold and wet weather. Yes, I know, photographic way not the best, but when you are not 20, or 30 or even 40 anymore, you need a bit of heat to go out. Great video for the way. About your neck, well, welcome to old age mate. By the way I am not fifty anymore either. 😉

@Chreeeys 2 года назад

Hi Thomas, love your content since many years! Wild video suggestion: Go out on a 2-3 day trip into the "wild" and build a primitive camp/shelter incl. preparing and lighting a camp fire etc. And then take on some small photography journeys from there. So basically like @XanderBudnick but with the added cherry of landscape photography. NOW THAT is something I'd enjoy :)

@MsOnce4all 2 года назад

I like the color version better. However, I think the IR image would be helped by bringing down the blacks. Loved the fern in general; isolated and perfect.

@ScottRae 2 года назад

Tom, for the infrared B&W work, I'd seriously look at using something like SilverEfex to tweak the microcontrast and play about with colour filters - they'll transform infrared images like that fern and I feel gives you more control than Lightroom / Photoshop

After a 4 day hike through Laugavegur a few years back with my camera swinging around my neck, I gave myself a similar neck injury. This brought back some memories of that adventure. Now I swear by wrist straps and camera clips. Swinging gear = strain injury just waiting to happen. Great video.

@Maex__ 2 года назад

I was already wondering in the last videos why you didn't consider the 24-70 f2.8 before. I understand the usefullnes and versatility of the 24-120, but unless you are not making long distance hikes where space and weight of the packback are important, I would always go with the better and sharper lenses. Therefore and since you are traveling relaxed with your van, the 24-70 and 70-200 both f2.8 will provide you outstanding results I would argue.

@ThomasHeatonPhoto 2 года назад

Totally agree with you, Max. The 24-120 has its place, but not as a permanent member of the bag.

I am also glad you are feeling better, I was going to mention there is yarrow near by. Sometimes having a small tin of salve can help ease muscle strains on the road, lucky you are close to home and your wife. I prefer the infra red shot as it seemed to team with life and more detail the subject matter of the fern, you have to work with what is available. The Nikon one was nice more simple cleaner looking. I enjoyed this video mostly for seeing the Lake district from a different photographic viewpoint than that of a tourist, I appreciate more. I also find the heather to be beautiful , the way it is now, and thanks for sharing it in this video.

@notharry 2 года назад

In case it is of interest, Thomas, I can let you know as someone with moderately severe spinal stenosis in both the neck and lumbar regions,that I considerably reduced next paid issues by using a Nicama chest harness (it's like a mini reverse backpack) which can carry at a pinch 2 camera bodies with one having a large lens and the other a smaller one PLUS a paid of binoculars (I am a bird watcher) without putting any load at all on the neck. It does not interfere with using a rucksack type camera bag, but getting both on and off is a bit of a rigmarole. You probably don't need this sort of help, but I was prompted to comment by your remark about the risk of disability stopping you working!

Good job isolating the subject from the background with compression from the long lens. Nicely done.

I've had a couple injuries which really took a long time to recover from. Hurt my neck falling on my face after tripping over something. It twisted my neck so hard that it pinched a nerve and my right hand was numb for months. Another time, I got injured making something out of steel in my home shop. Was cutting a piece using an angle grinder and it kicked backwards towards me. Hit my left wrist, and had to have emergency surgery. I'll never have full movement or feeling in my left wrist and some fingers, but I can still do everything again. Thing they never you though, is that the injuries just make life a little painful. Every day things get a little harder to do. Good luck, please take care of yourself
