Landscape Photography Tutorial - How to Understand Sunset Colour. 

Thanks William = ) This was an odd video, as i didnt even take a photo - LOL Hope you are well. Regards Ewan

Thanks Keith. This one actually took a bit of working out, how to get the point across. the only way i could do it - was take NO photos!. Im about to try another one explaining the process in reverse for Sunrise! Ewan

LOL, no worries Mike. Thanks for watching and the comment. Regards, Ewan

Thanks Andrew. And i never even took a photograph!. I thought that by concentrating on the message, it wold focus the attention on the message. I had been thinking of doing a sunrise one as well, focusing on the timing relationship between sky colour and morning glow, and how the colour disappear when the direct light, hit the hills.

That would be a great companion video to this one, and one that we would all not only enjoy, but benefit from. Your ability to tell the story in such an intimate way is inspiring. Please do it.

@@andrewhookerphotography4774 Thanks Andrew. I have been looking for a hill recently with 360' views to do it from with another hill in the west to explain the sequence. Ill keep looking, and once the conditions are right!... = )

Thanks Bernard. I know the point i am always trying to make and i try and make them valid each time (which is why i dont churn out many videos (im obviously not that creative or imaginative)). As i was filming this - I wasnt actually sure that i was making much sense, as i try not to be too technical. This will be the first time i have done a vlog and not shot anything. It was a lovely night and beautiful colour, but that didnt mean it would have been a nice photograph... which is why i elected to not to. Glad you found it helpful! Thanks Bernard Ewan

Hey Einar - Thanks for taking the time to comment. New one just released yesterday (or the day before) Ill get another one out within the week I hope! Thanks again! Ewan

Cheers Simon. "Chasing the path of the Sun" is actually a really good explanation for it, as thats exactly what it is ! This is definately my favourite time of the the day, and i think i shoot just a little bit later in the evening than you do. Our Co - photo shoot is gonna be interesting! = ) And... yep - i seems to upset the equilibrium all over the place indeed! LOL Cheers buddy! Ewan

Many thanks and you are welcome/ = ) Regards, Ewan

Thanks Adrian - You are welcome my friend! Ewan

Thanks Joseph. Im a simple kinda guy! LOL. Regards, Ewan

Thanks very much Phil. I had been wanting to do something like this one, as i am gobsmacked by it, evertime i watch it happen in front of me! All the best mate Ewan

Thanks Craig - the watching is often the best part, which is why i usually pitch up HOURS before i shoot just to sit and observe (how sad am I? - Living life on the edge! LOL) I think my primary thinking is that ill go and watch, and if its right - ill take a photograph, rather than going to TAKE a photograph, if that makes sense. Maybe i have my priorities and shooting plans all back to front! I thought that this one was more at the pace of one of your vids... Regards Ewan

There’s nothing sad about that at all. Being in a beautiful location and watching life roll by sounds perfect to me. It’s good that you don’t feel pressurised to take a shot when the conditions aren’t right for you. It’s never a wasted journey though, is it? Cheers.

Thanks Andy. I have to think and think and think about how i will try and get these things across, and the whole process actually helps me understand it better too, buy verbally explaining it! Thanks for your time to comment and show support! Much appreciated. Regards Ewan

Thanks Denise - i hard;y realise that i still ahve an orcadian accent... until i go back home, that is. I am now reminded to chase my printer in Orkney for you re that beautiful print you have ordered. Ill get onto it today! Regards E

Thanks very much JOhn. Sorry they [Videos] are so f a r apart. E

Many thanks once again. Kind regards, Ewan

Hey Paulus. Thankyou very much. Regards. Ewan

Many thanks for your comment, and you are welcome. I saw the moon the other night and it was pretty special. Kind regards, Ewan

LOL - I understand why he was concerned, as it must have looked dodgy and I guess form a far distance i must have looked like Rambo, right enough! Bahaha. He was fine after i had spoken with him though! = ) Regards, Ewan

Thanks. Yes, you would have thought it would have been there more vividly.. more often, but i think we just need to train our eyes and see more closely. It has to be there somewhere. We just need to find it! Kind regards, Ewan

Hey Andrew. I am GETTING soft, cause i used to be as hard a s nails... NOT! The temperature here seems to be different ot scotland in that there is so-o-o much humidity here, it feels much colder that the mercury suggests... hence the two coats. Just a precaution. I was tired also so didnt want to get crook. Im sure it looked a lot warmer than it was! Thanksthough Andrew - I appreciate your support! Ewan

Hi Judge Rivers... Thanks. As I dont do many videos, I try and do my best when i do haul the Vlogging set up out! There is a complimentary video on my channel (Link here) on the light at sunrise! Thanks for watching and your comment! = ) Regards, Ewan

HI Clement. Welcome on board and thanks for stopping by and taking the time to comment. Much apprceciated... and you are welcome! Regards, Ewan

Thanks Iain. I really wanted to explain the BOV for this one which is the atmospheric diffraction receptor. The clouds would change it again and that would be a whole new video. NZ - yeah... pretty much the same here re land rights but i suspect farmers in UK, might be more prickly than those here. LOL Ewsan

@@EwanDunsmuirImages Covid, no international travel and the pressure of staycations has brought land access into focus here. Farmers in England/Wales/ NI can still kick you off their land without reason. Thankfully in Scotland the walking boot is on the other foot, essentially you'd have to be damaging their livelihood or infringing on their privacy for them to 'ask' you to leave. I've worked on a farm so I see it from both sides; as a photographer I presume access but stay away from buildings/livestock and then wave at the grumpy farmer on his quadbike😊

Thanks very Much ishaan. You are welcome and i really appreciate both your comment and your support! Ewan

Hey Neil, it wiks at both ends of the day. This one here was sunset, but i did an 'on location' vid of it at ount Doom, at Sunrise, which shows the same thing but in reverse, and i am able to spend more time explaining it a little better with some proper reference. Thanks very much mate - see this link here to the other video... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uTqjsw_b40Y.html Regards, Ewan

Thanks very much. Good luck with the sunset. i'd love to see what you get. E
