There were pleasant conditions down at Honeycombs Beach, not much wind and a chance of a colourful sunset, a great opportunity for some landscape photography.

Honeycombs Beach is located on the coast between Cape Leeuwin and Cape Naturist. I've been to the beach several times before, but it has always been windy. So with favourable conditions, this was the perfect opportunity to explore the south end of the beach.
Once I was through the first crop of rocks, the beach opened out to a quiet bay with a few large boulders half-buried in the sand. I was struggling to find a composition. With less than 20 minutes before sunset, I decided to climb up the scabble of rocks to see if I could find a position looking over the bay. Facing north, I was hoping the colour from the setting sun would be caught by the clouds and create a background that would complement the scene. All I needed now was for the light to do its thing!

Hey everyone, thanks for checking out this video. Let me know if you liked the new before and after reveal for the images, something I'm just trying out! 😀

@AndrewRobins 3 года назад

I like the new reveal, it’s good to see the raw files 1st and the transition itself is very clean and smooth. Excellent video and the images from this shoot were fantastic 👍

@waynefuller1954 3 года назад

Definitely like the original raw file and the transition to the final edit. Some great post processing. Thanks Andrew

@GaryTischer 3 года назад

Yep, nice reveal and some nice editing too. Particularly like the light highlight in the left of the shot at 11:51 .... would have been the perfect spot for the sun to strike had there been a gap in the clouds. A lot of lines leading your eye in to that point and feels very natural and pleasing. :)

@Andrew_marr 3 года назад

Thanks Andrew, great to get your feedback mate!

@Andrew_marr 3 года назад

Cheers Wayne, good to know you liked the new reveal. Thanks for the feedback.

@trevornullmeyers7248 3 года назад

Andrew , great to see a fellow West Australian getting great reviews. Really like the new raw plus final image arrangement. I believe it emphasises your message of the 2 strong elements of photography. Composition and post editing to bring out the full potential of an image. Keep up the great work and I love the fact that you share the locations you are shooting. It inspires us to get out and find these locations.you are a very good educator. Keep it up.

@kisna2908 3 года назад

That raw to edited to cropped transformation ! Man that was awesome. Love from India.

@SteveKleinheider 3 года назад

Nice video Andrew! You show that really nice photos can be had...even when the light is not optimal! Take care!

@G0FUW 3 года назад

Good to see you back on the beach Andrew. I have experienced that phenomena of being disappointed at the end of a shoot only to find I quite like the images a week later. Falling short of expectations seems to have an overly critical effect immediately afterwards but once that has faded you can look at the images with less of a raw emotional connection. Your edits certainly bring them to life; skillfully done! Thanks for sharing.

@robertfleckenstein5031 3 года назад

Hi Andrew, Yes, the RAW/processed segments are a wonderful addition to your VLOG, please keep them coming. Also, you are really making that Z7 "sing". I am happy to see your most beautifully hand/computer crafted images; they bring hope for me that the Z7 I bought can be used to create images I'll like. I would even go so far as to say your images are what the engineers had in mind when they designed the camera. Keep up the good work. Bob.

@Andrew_marr 3 года назад

Cheers Bob, appreciate your feedback, I'll see if I can include more of the post-processing in future videos. The Z7 is an impressive camera, as I'm sure you know. I love the images I'm capturing with it. Thanks again for your kind comments mate! 👍

@sunkosi4897 3 года назад

Thanks. That was a great video

@MiguelACoronaDM 3 года назад

Good to see you out and about Andrew. Yes! I do like the before/after transitions. Nicely done. I've also been doing a lot of exploring of new locations in anticipation of Autumn here in New York. I think you should coin the "fanatical on the thirds" phrase! Good to "see" you seaside again. Be well.

@johnbentley1056 3 года назад

I loved the video Andrew. It clearly showed that landscape photographers don't get fantastic light every time they go out. Frequently they have to work with what nature presents. I like the images that you took and especially the editing which I feel brought out the mood much better. I also love the aspect ratio you used but then I love panoramic formats. Thank you for sharing and I look forward to your next video.

@Andrew_marr 3 года назад

Hey John, it's great to read your comment, thanks for sharing. If we had great light and weather every time we went out, landscape photography would be too easier and everyone would be doing it! 😀 You are right, working with the conditions you have is such an important part of landscape photography. We can't shoot a spectacular sunset if there isn't a sunset to shoot. Thanks for checking out the video and sharing your thoughts. 👍

@rosssayer6524 3 года назад

Always enjoy your video's and the well explained info that comes with it, loved that little cove area you found and the images. Thanks for sharing.

@Andrew_marr 3 года назад

Cheers Ross, it's great to get your feedback. I'll look to include more of that information in future videos. I think there could plenty more opportunities for compositions from around this area. Thanks for your comment! 👍

@margthomas9916 3 года назад

Beautiful work. Love the editing - really brought the images to life.

@Andrew_marr 3 года назад

Thank you Marg, glad you enjoyed this. With the flat light, it needed a little extra punch to bring it to life! 😊

@AE5X 3 года назад

Yes, the edited image really had the WOW factor. I know you have a video describing your post-processing technique (dated March 6) - I'm going to give it another look now...

@johnleftwich650 3 года назад

Not withstanding your disappointment in the images I do think they are beautiful. I do appreciate your manor of talking through the process of making each image.

@Andrew_marr 3 года назад

@robertdavis1255 3 года назад

Great location... Is that in WA as I come from Albany & landscape looks similar....

@Andrew_marr 3 года назад

Thanks Robert, yes I'm WA based. I love shooting down around the Albany region. This was taken at Honeycombs Beach, between Cape Leeuwin and Cape Naturalist, cheers!👍

@BrianHorsey 3 года назад

I liked that Andrew, thanks. I thought the before and after dissolve for the whole image was fine and I liked the demo of the enhancements in closeup too. Roughly where is the beach? I couldn’t find it on Google Maps and we leave our WA maps in Kingsley.

@Andrew_marr 3 года назад

Cheers Brian, glad you enjoyed the reveal, I hope to continue sharing this aspect of the image in the future, at least for some of the images. The beach is very easy to access. If you search Honeycombs Carpark, Wilyabrup, it should come up in Google, but basically you drive down Caves Rd from Dunsborough and turn right down Moses Rd. When you get to the T-junction you turn left to get to the carpark. 😀

@BrianHorsey 3 года назад

@@Andrew_marr Thanks Andrew. You'd have thought Google would be clever enough to connect a 'Honeycombs Beach WA' search with Honeycombs Carpark! Now we have to hope we'll be able to get back to WA in the not too distant future.

@brabs2754 3 года назад

mate maybe it wasnt ideal for you but better than flowers and birds in my backyard & the local park for the last 6 weeks ... all within 5km of home :( loved the reveal in stages well presented.

@Andrew_marr 3 года назад

Cheers mate, I’m not sure what I’d shoot if I was limited to 5km from my home. Hang in there! Thanks for the feedback on the new reveal. I may tweak it a little but hopefully it’s helpful the see the before and after.

@DCFotographs 3 года назад

I really love your edits. do you teach how to edit?

@Andrew_marr 3 года назад

Thanks for that, I have shared a few videos that walk-through my editing process. You might want to check these out - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kBWX89f6I_M.html I do plan on making more in the future.

Hi Andrew, Thanks for sharing this stories. It's a great inspiration to me. And I think you are right, light is everything in land- seascape photo =)

@Andrew_marr 3 года назад

Thanks for checking the video out. If we had great light every time, landscape photography would be too easy. 😊

@endtimeimages3284 3 года назад

Brilliant video, enjoyed it 👍🏻 Seeing the footsteps in the sand it becomes clear one has to get up early to get a clean shot 😀😜

@Andrew_marr 3 года назад

Yeah, the morning is definitely better for cleaner sand, but I must admit the high tide was doing a great job. Thanks for your comment! 😀

@terrytracey3486 3 года назад

The main thing you still got a image and processed lovely. A second visit is easier to work the scene because you did the scouting the first time. Look forward to see what you got the second night.

@Andrew_marr 3 года назад

Haha, you are absolutely right Terry, thanks for your comment mate. Just putting the video of the second visit together now, a little easier the second time round.

@nightscapeimages.richard 3 года назад

Hey Andrew, thoroughly enjoyed this video, really well done. I think it took me back to some of your earlier work which really resonated with me. I do think that first image is spectacular and it's so easy to dismiss a shot based on the rear screen while still on location. You've definitely brought some magic to it in post. Good stuff mate.

@Andrew_marr 3 года назад

Nightscape Images thanks Richard, I think my disappointment stemmed from the fact that I didn’t get the light I was hoping for, so felt the colour and magic just wasn’t there. You’re right, the image is so hard to judge just by looking at the back of that camera. Luckily I was able to bring a little life into the image in post. Hope you are doing well over there and are keeping safe in semi-lockdown.

@nightscapeimages.richard 3 года назад

@@Andrew_marr Yes I'm doing ok Andrew .. it's frustrating but not as serious as Melbourne.

Great video and location Andrew. Shots turned out good too, good colours as well. Looking forward to your next instalment at this location.

@Andrew_marr 3 года назад

Thanks Andrew, there plenty of interesting spots south of this beach that I’d love to explore in the future. Are you still down south or have you headed north?

@andrewhookerphotography4774 3 года назад

Andrew we are still in Denmark, probably until early October. If you are down this way between now and October let me know, we could catch up for a coffee, or an explore, or a shoot.

@oneeyedphotographer 3 года назад

You need a local guide. I live in Mandurah. Honeycomb Beach? How about Redgate Beach. There's Honeycomb Rock a little further south. You can usually get a feed of herring in that little bay.

@Andrew_marr 3 года назад

OneEyedPhotographer yeah, when I sent the drone up, there plenty of good spots I could to the south. Looks like there’s another way in from caves road. How are your eyes going after the op a few years ago? Are you back to taking photos?

@mrsusan893 3 года назад

Hi Andrew. Do you experience any banding when editing your Z7 files?

@Andrew_marr 3 года назад

I've not experienced any banding from either the Z7 or the D850 (which use the same sensor). Usually banding is more to do with the editing software, I know Lightroom can something have banding but that's only in the rendering of the version in the software. The banding doesn't appear in the final image once exported.

Cheers mate, appreciate the feedback Jimmy. I’ll look at keeping the new reveal in. I thinks it good the show the RAW shot and then the difference the edit made. I use DaVinci Resolve for all my editing and have done for years. It’s the best video editor out there, plus it’s free.
