Those dead tree landscapes were amazing! There is nothing to apologize for. :-)

@TimberGeek 5 лет назад

Indeed, if I could I'd buy a large copy of that second image from 2017 (9:45-10:20)

@Creativecavemanagain 5 лет назад

Adam, you like flat light because you're a freaking genius. You're experienced, you've learnt to look up and down and all around. Screw the obvious, search out the unique and personal. I love shooting in flat light. I love overcast days. This modern HDR looking stuff sells but the images I want on my walls are muted, pastel dreams and stories told in 256 shades of grey. You are surrounded by some very skilled landscape photographers but your experience and knowledge of composition shine through. Great video and it looked like you guys had a blast. The combination of you and Hardcastle is epic.

@kentaylor7491 5 лет назад

That second shot of the burnt trees was fantastic. There's something I love about that image, it's the kind of image you can loose yourself in.

@thevalleywalker 5 лет назад

I am sure others say it to you all the time but you really do have a fab eye for an image and the pencil drawing landscape was a great example of that - almost LS Lowry like in the landscape ! Once again you have found something different. It's a pity you n Thomas didn't have more time to explore that area you found. TFS

@QuietLightPhoto 5 лет назад

I agree it had some really great potential, but the mountains were calling or in this case his lordship, lol.

@jeffgillis7133 5 лет назад

Adam- the images of the dead trees and the texture of the hills are your best work IMO. They’re like stunning charcoal drawings. And I’m going to drive myself crazy trying to simulate them.

@starsearchreject 4 года назад

The ones with the dead trees look sketched, and I love them!!!!

@Archibald_Quincy_Stanton 5 лет назад

All dead trees need love. Even the burnouts 👍 Wonderful shots as always

@mauriziomigliozzi 5 лет назад

As always, I love the way you see the world. The dead trees pictures were simply gorgeous, they really seem to be painted.

@LieutenantLights 5 лет назад

Your appreciation of the intimate landscape is awesome.

@j.k.photography3664 3 года назад

I really like the story this picture tells about the soft/harsh versions of nature.

@KellyPettit 5 лет назад

That last image of the burnt trees is incredible. Looks like a drawing. I like that you enjoy the mountain landscapes and also finding those gold nuggets. Spices it up. Also makes me realize that maybe we all don't have to drive days on end to find a good composition. Thanks Adam.

@dmcd6769 5 лет назад

Love the burnt/dead tree landscapes Adam, they had a surreal dreamlike look about them, wonderful!!

@JohnDrummondPhoto 5 лет назад

I love those burnt tree images! They really bring out the contours of the hillsides. Reminds me of Cezanne building form through parallel brush strokes. Brilliant, Uncle Grumpy!

@mibreit-photo 5 лет назад

Really liked the shots of the burnt trees. As you said - like a pencil drawing.

@anvilcloud 5 лет назад

While I am more drawn to the more classic landscape, I really do appreciate your unique vision.

@martincutrone5816 5 лет назад

Yes, the dramatic images are dramatic, but the intimate images are artistic and fascinating in their own way. I can see them as a subtle grouping of 8x10 prints on wall in study, or other quiet area. Very nice!

@rcchar 5 лет назад

Adam I love the trees on the hillside. The hill lines being vertical and the tree horizontal gives it a nice balance. I like it.

@TL-xw6fh 5 лет назад

Adam, what you show us in the past few weeks in the Rockies is that you are an individual with a great photographic eye. Being different is not necessarily a weak attribute! Your great images prove it. Please do continue as you are.

@LisaHamsterneck 5 лет назад

I really like the shot with the spruce in front and the burnt trees behind. It really looks like a 3d drawing.... the trees in front seem separated from the part that looks more drawn. Beautiful.

@indianwinter 5 лет назад

The patterens of the dead trees was tops in my book.Keep having fun.

@Treydmusicmedia 5 лет назад

Your dead tree landscapes remind me of etchings or woodcuttings fro the printing world! They are fantastic!

@bobcat6653 5 лет назад

The images with the dead trees, with the fantastic textures, are really, really nice! I enjoyed this episode a lot.

@northeasternwildlifephotog4504 5 лет назад

The burnt trees photo is my favorite of the video.

@SteveHorn 5 лет назад

The view from the boat you float is fantastic! The pano is beautiful and the 2017 image @ 9:45 is awesome. The fine vertical lines of the trees with the wavy contour lines of the hills really grab your attention and draw you in for a closer look.

@RockLakeMama 5 лет назад

I completely agree re: the isolated pattern/texture photos. True, their appeal is not as mainstream as with the sweeping landscape shots, but I, too, am drawn to those images. Lovely shots as always, Adam.

@CelineAndDennisMurillo 5 лет назад

Amazing images Adam! Really love the patterns of the dead trees that you got. Watching from the Philipines. 🇵🇭

@irispreciado5142 5 лет назад

Love the dead trees! Absolutely beautiful 💖💖

@blainstenberg2806 5 лет назад

I like it. The way the trees show the hills

@russellschundler6559 5 лет назад

Flat light, golden light, mountainscapes, patterned close-ups ... they all add to our enjoyment of observing the natural beauty around us. Thanks for sharing your insights and varied approaches to image capture.

@RodAllsopp 5 лет назад

The dead tree landscapes are awesome. Even through the classic front to back images you did were good, they're blown away by these. Nice work.

@analog_presencing 5 лет назад

Its always more challenging not to go for the obvious shot, I believe you nailed it Adam thumbs-up!

@wouteriedema4051 5 лет назад

I live in a flat country with many days of flat light. Your video showed me there are treasures hidden in this apparent boredom

@SourcePhotography 3 года назад

The "nuggets of gold" that you discover and photograph are exquisite. Thank you for sharing.

@JohnCBurzynski 5 лет назад

That's the beauty of art/photography.

@rerod7481 5 лет назад

I like how you see things differently. 👌

@yannfortin7035 5 лет назад

You're not alone Adam, I always try to get out when the light is flat! Great images, cheers!

@charliepackard5418 5 лет назад

I do like your choice and your interest in the burnt trees composition. It reminded me a bit of Yorkshire small fields and dry stone walls.

@lowdesertpunk 5 лет назад

Wow, those abstract photographs of the dead trees are so good!

@BruceLR57 5 лет назад

Ditto to everyone's comments below. I love your "patterns in nature" approach. Holds your eye to contemplate the image. "Nuggets of Gold" perfect description.

@artemsapegin 5 лет назад

Wow, that 2017 photo (the closeup one) is incredible!

@tomwhite7895 5 лет назад

Adam, Loved the burnt trees. While the grandiose vista shots are cool, I do like to shoot this kind of stuff too. Back in late 70's I attended a workshop put on by Freeman Patterson in Kelowna and was inspired by his way of isolating elements in a scene and making use of hidden shapes and patterns. Keep doing this kind of stuff. I find by just getting closer, it opens up a whole new world !

@terryolsen4244 5 лет назад

I personally really look for and enjoy seeing the details and patterns of nature. Keep showing us what you find, please.

@casperpedersen1799 5 лет назад

Your photos have a quietness to them, they let you look at them for some time to discover them. I especially like the tree photos in this video. And I’m glad that I’m not the only one who like to look at world a bit sideways.

@GuyRaymond_GR 5 лет назад

I really like those burned tree images especially the second one from 2017.

@QuietLightPhoto 5 лет назад

Hey Guy! Happy New Year! thanks for the feedback!

@leslielanderkin8301 5 лет назад

I quite like your 2 image pano of the trees in flat light. It looks almost like a pen/ink drawing. Leslie

@SafoCZ 5 лет назад

Love those pattern photos of trees in flat light, beautiful shots

@MiguelACoronaDM 5 лет назад

I liked the pattern images. I held my tablet at different lengths to get various perspectives. Each was unique. A thinking man’s image 😉

@SuperCanonguy 5 лет назад

thats what separates u from everybody else is your own style ..i love shots like that ,its being creative not shooting what everyvbody else is shooting ..i love flat light myself is just different ..beautiful work u n the rest of the crew !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@whafrog 5 лет назад

Really love your eye for "patterns in the landscape", beautiful photos and very inspiring.

@antont7357 5 лет назад

Oh wow, that pano is the type of image you print and put on a wall. It's not a photo that you get tired of looking at. Amazing lines and yes, it looks like a charcoal drawing.

@QuietLightPhoto 5 лет назад

Thanks, Anton!

@oliverku3481 5 лет назад

Congrats to the "pattern" photos. I think they are really awesome. That is art I would say 🙂

@trevhillphotography7852 5 лет назад

It’s vital to photograph what you are drawn to as its you being true to yourself. Also, by doing so you demonstrate to me another way of interpreting a scene, and that’s really helpful. Short videos are fine by me. I follow all 4 photogs in this series, so for me I’m looking forward to more diverse content. Although, I enjoy all of your work and all are great teachers in different ways. Cheers Adam. All 4 of you should have done a ‘what winter gloves I wear’ segment. Cold hands are my personal winter gripe.

@QuietLightPhoto 5 лет назад

These guys are pretty good for gloves. Nick and Thomas have gloves from these guys and I have an older pair that works quite well. Not perfect but it is hard to find warm mitts that are also functional for photography without freezing your hands off. us.photographygloves.com/collections/all

@wojtekgrabowski1 5 лет назад

i watch many many landscape photographers ..and i really have to say your channel is one of the best. great compositions....drone footage ... amazing views. real pleasure to watch

@valpayne2963 5 лет назад

Wow! The dead trees are incredible. Pencil or charcoal-like, looking like folds of flesh (well to me anyhow). Fascinating and far more intriguing than traditional epic shots. Thanks!

@rom-media6800 5 лет назад

Another great video! Love the photos of the burnt trees! I think It is the type of abstract photo that I would hang on my walls. Thank you for sharing! Cheers

@MrFrankie1311 5 лет назад

Great footage and pictures, Adam! 👍

@steveokay1 5 лет назад

I was hoping to see the "Match Sticks". Very nice!

@irmalabrin4041 5 лет назад

Como siempre buen trabajo . simpático y maravilloso !!!

@scht19 5 лет назад

The captures you got with the burnt trees with on the side of the hills with the darker ridges is awesome I think..I am always the one going off on my own and shooting things that maybe other wouldn't..Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't..the one a about 9:53 is a keeper. Love your stuff,and you four do work well together..Keep it going..

@ungavaproductions 5 лет назад

Great job, as always, Adam

@jimcooke5590 5 лет назад

Great vlog, really lovely images. Looked like a great trip.

@dasp125 5 лет назад

I really like the images you captured. I miss the images of the forests that you used to take.

@PatriciaDavidsonPhotography 5 лет назад

Adam, love the burnt tree abstracts! That first one with the live trees lining the bottom is phenomenal!

@wendynewing8834 5 лет назад

That was a great video. I love all the images.

@weschilton 5 лет назад

Awesome stuff, Adam.... you’re eye for pattern and texture is one of the things that makes your images so awesome. 👍🏼

@vproven 5 лет назад

Awesome images. 👍👍👍

@mainline464 5 лет назад

@joaquintrigueros 3 года назад

The dead tree photos are out of this world! Please follow your instincts.

@lesoutside 5 лет назад

Spectacular nuggets of nature. Thank you for sharing!

@SethPay 5 лет назад

I really enjoy the ‘boring’ pattern shots Adam! Their works of art. Intricate but there’s order to them. 👍🏻👏🏻

@gordroberts53 5 лет назад

Hi Adam! Wonderful episode. I have always been drawn to the dramatic landscape, a brilliant sunset and the like. Watching your videos for the last year has helped me develop an appreciation for the more subtle but equally compelling compositions possible in the so called "flat" light. As always, thanks for sharing!

@mikemitchell3889 5 лет назад

Adam, I believe shooting in flat light offers a different kind of challenge where we learn to parse-out subtle composition. Some say lack of lighting direction sucks, but as one of my chief petty officers in the Navy used to say, "Mitchell, Embrace the suck!" Nice work, Sir. Thank-You, Mike

@TL-xw6fh 5 лет назад

Totally agree with you Mike. Photography is 'painting with light', irrespective of the "quality" of the light.

@ibp2007 4 года назад

Wonderful eye. Bravo

@ceilihmcgrady4125 5 лет назад

I really like flat light too. It seems calm and peaceful to me. I absolutely love the close up of the snowy mountain with the bare pencil looking trees!

@henkpeter1755 5 лет назад

I love the dead tree landscape images like I commented two months ago at the Winter in the Rockies pt 4 episode. The abstract image at 9:25 is my favourite. Thanks again for sharing your photo adventures Adam.

@jamesjohnston6765 5 лет назад

I LOVE those shots of the burnt trees! For me those sorts of shots are really nice when juxtaposed against the standard "beauty shots". I tend to think of how images work together as a group after I find a composition that works. The detail shots like your tree trunk and snow, are what gives the deeper personality to any location. Great stuff!

@M.Campbell 5 лет назад

I don't think I've ever watched one of your videos and afterward found that I didn't learn something. This one is no exception. You have a great talent for looking at large chaotic areas and picking out the amazing bits to photograph. Thank you for sharing your time.

@chrisroot7182 5 лет назад

I was also taken by the "dead stick" shots, especially the one from this year. Loved the patterns, and that's an image you could spend a lot of time exploring! Cheers Adam!

@arseniofrontela5829 5 лет назад

Adam you are a true artist i can definitely relate to your vision and compositions keep shooting.

@JDubyafoto 5 лет назад

I really do like those stark, high-contrast images of the dead trees against the snow & hills. It's some of my favorites of your work over the past year or so. Kudos!

@anthonysalas9167 5 лет назад

Amazing shots Adam. Love the dead trees Composition. Great work Adam.

@DonKittle 5 лет назад

Adam, I really liked the dead trees shots - really different, really striking, really creative. I also tend to favour flat light in quite a few of the images I shoot. As ever, I’m thrilled whenever you release new content.

@brunomartelli8163 5 лет назад

The pattern images are great !!

@ivanosrin2126 2 года назад

Great shapes from the dead trees

@Leffe49 5 лет назад

Canadian Rockies, what a cold beautiful place in the winter. Would myself prefer the spring or autumn however. Really liked your pano shot with the dead trees. It´s not an common photo, it´s like a "Fine art" photo.

@RandNingali 5 лет назад

Loved the dead tree shots!

@andrewmckinney3053 5 лет назад

I do like the dead tree patterns .... tending to abstract and fine art :)

@GreenhornPhototaker 5 лет назад

must watch tv, excellent as always adam

@osmonj 5 лет назад

What can I say? I love your videos and the way you view the natural world through your camera. As Jon Glass posted, below, "There is nothing to apologie for".

@andreywagner5046 5 лет назад

Amazing work Adam, i follow your channel mostly for that unique and artistic approach, many have forgotten... Thank you for sharing.

@andychattaway5620 5 лет назад

Great Video Adam it's always interesting watching you work. I love those 'Dead Tree' Images and I bet they would look great on a BIG canvas 👌

@cillyede 5 лет назад

Very good!

@timknowles3214 5 лет назад

amazing Images.

@simonmiles1972 5 лет назад

I have always loved the subtle revealing qualities of soft light. You can make these kind of images almost anywhere at almost any time of day with more or less any camera/lens. You don't need an amazing view, spectacular light or the dramatic perspective of an ultra-wide lens.You just need a keen eye and an appreciation for pattern and form. Beautiful images. I would love to see more like this. Very inspiring.

@jennifersayers8041 5 лет назад

Fantastic images, the one with all the dead trees is impressive. It is like a pencil drawing, sort of resembles a muscly forearm and the hair is standing up with fright, but that's me lol I love it. Looking forward to the next episode 😊
