I photograph the first full moon of the year, the Wolf Moon in the Rocky Mountains of Canada with the Hasselblad X1D II. To see more of my work www.toddkorol.com / toddkorol
I continue to be surprised that you don’t get more love in subs. The quality of your photography, your explanations of technique and the overall production quality of your videos puts these right up there with the best pure photography channels IMHO. Keep up the great work.
Thanks for that. I did not make very many video over the past two summers because of assignments, so I get it, but hopefully I can keep an upward trend.
I've subscribed, and then unsubscribed to a great many RU-vid photo sites over the years Todd, but your channel consistently remains my "go-to" for it's excellent and accessible content, along with your travels in some of the most beautiful landscapes in the world. I'd love to see you do something on the Milk River country, perhaps Writing on Stone? Thanks for the inspiration Todd!
That’s very kind thank you and thank you for staying. I will try and keep my channel about photography, traveling and the odd gear piece if I think it suits my viewers. I did a video on my 5x7 camera in Milk River if you go back a bit, but I am planning another trip there this summer. Cheers
Banff national park is such a beauty and I love how empty parts of it can be during the winter(especially the colder days). There was a couple hikes I did where all I could hear when standing still was silence. Such a beautiful place to photograph as well. Wonderful video!
Digital or film you bring such a high level of photography to your channel. All the photos you shared were simply beautiful. I feel so inadequate in expressing my appreciation for your art.Thanks for making the best of the cloud cover rather than packing it in and not bringing us along.
great to see you out in the snow taking fotos todd. years ago I would occasionally winter camp using a double walled tent. I slept in a goose down sleeping bag rated for minus 40. I purchased the extra long sleeping bag an thats where I kept my camera and batteries warm. zen billings in niagara.
Really fantastic! Nothing like having the place to yourself and the wolves! Wow! You at all considering the X2D? If the X1DII only had Leica's EVF and IS!
At this time no to the X2D, just way too expensive here in Canada. I do love the X1D II, IS would be nice, but honestly those leaf shutters help a lot for slower shutter speeds.
Wonderful video and shots! I could probably never afford the equipment but the process to take similar photos on my equipment should be possible. Thank you for sharing your experience! Is there a lot of post photo processing involved to get these images?
Thank you. Yes you could capture photos like these with pretty much any camera you can use on manual. There was very little post processing, just the contrast. The graduated filter helped a lot.
Todd, great video as always. Wonderful photos just wow. I was lucky enough to see Banff for myself over a decade ago and it really is special isn’t it. ❤️ 🇨🇦. I’ve seen all those hasselblad videos too but to me hasselblad need to send you that camera to try out. Curious to see what you’d think of it. Your Mr medium and large format for me. Cheers
I would love to taker it out and go an make some photos with any of their camera, but, I am a pretty small potatoes RU-vidr. Also in reality, I make my full time living using some of their gear. Maybe one day ;-)
@@toddkorolphoto that’s what I meant. Your not a RU-vidr full time, therefore you’ve view on their cameras from a working photographer was the review I’d actually be interested in. :) small potatoes my eye, I’d say a very loyal watcher base. I’ll have to request it on their promo video. Hahaha
@@toddkorolphoto I have to agree! I’m literally gonna comment on hasselblad ad video and say send to a person who works using cameras like these! They’ll ignore me of course but! 🤷♂️.
Beautiful scenery and great photos. I’m curious though, wouldn’t it make more sense to exposure bracket instead of using an ND grad? I’ve been tempted to invest in a filter system that can accommodate graduated filters, but for scenes like mountain ranges where the horizon isn’t a relatively straight line, doesn’t a grad filter cause as much of a problem as it solves? Keep up the great work!
Yes that is definitely another way to do it, I use the filter system because I also shoot a lot of film, and. I do like to get the image as close as I can in the camera, but that's just me. The other problem I was faced was with the moon rising so fast and the clouds moving fast I literally had just moments to try and capture the moon in the right place. ;-)
