Sorry for repeating myself once again, but this is ruly an amazing place. I enjoyed the photos very much. The fog creates this sense of moodyness and atmosphere that you can't get on a clear day.
Love the mossy tree shot! Personally find it tricky to get a good shots out of interesting trees, almost always things that clutter or in the way etc. The winding river shot after that was also very nice!
I know this area - it is very difficult to calm the chaotic riot of greenery and have it make sense - a certain amount of sensory overload! Great job, and very lovely to have a visit with the falls in the warmth of my home. Thank you!
Another wonderful vlog. Likewise, I found Qualicum Falls beautiful but challenging to capture; I just couldn't translate my vision through the camera. You've done a fine job, however (and given us a few pointers along the way), so perhaps I'll try again in the future. Keep these vlogs coming! Cheers.
Thanks, AM! Well, I have to admit that the fog and mist helped considerably. Qualicum is a hard place to capture as is Englishman River Falls. I made a quick trip over to Englishman River after I finished here and couldn't find anything, the fog had lifted.
I have been stuck indoors with a fractured wrist and your videos have really been helping with keeping my enthusiasm high. I watch about three or four each morning while having coffee the wrist is starting to improve a bit so I think I’m going to venture out tomorrow, maybe to one of our local ponds Thank you so much for the excellent work Adam
Adam, I especially appreciate your points on choosing a good composition in all your videos ..... something I need to be more mindful of to produce better images. Also, love the level of saturation in all your work - nothing ever overdone ..... As a fellow Vancouverite your work inspires me to get out to all the wonderful areas in our backyard. Thanks
I must admit that it is a challenge to get inspired when it rains for weeks, but we are sure lucky to have all of this nature so close to Vancouver, very spoiled.
Great Vlog once again Adam, they are always so relaxing to watch and informative at the same time. Can I say that your drone footage is some of the nicest in all the vlogs I follow, it`s always so understated but ads so much to the video, keep it up and thank you for your efforts.
The last image(winding river) moves me the most. It reminds me of the masterpieces of black and white Asian pictures. And the music you chose suits the image perfectly. Thank you.
I thought I had pressed the bell for notifications (but hadn't) so coming to this on Christmas Eve.... fabulous imagery and your vlogs have a quality to them that needs more coverage I say. The transitions are so well put together and matched the dreamlike feel to the location superbly. I look forward to following your journey in 2018. Best wishes Adam .... and Nadolig Llawen
The fog really did add a wonderful mysteriousness to the feel of the image .... those big narly trees are awesome .... cheers as always for sharing ....
Thanks for watching! The area just up the road from Qualicum (Cathedral Grove) has some immense Douglas Fir, hundreds of feet tall. Hopefully, at some point, I'll do a bit of a vlog there as well. Cheers, Nigel!
A great video Adam. Beautiful shots too. I wonder if it might be possible to add the Exif data on the photos. We can definitely learn from it as well. Thank you kindly.
Thanks, Ivo! If you click on the "show more" under the video description I have posted some of the basic camera information such as iso, shutter speed and so on. Hope that helps?
Hello Adam, I just discovered your channel. What a joy! Beautiful images, superb drone footage, great vlogs ! I'm binge watching your videos. Just a shame for the frequently hunting autofocus. Maybe a 6DMkII would correct that weakness nicely.
Thanks! Yeah, the autofocus on the Sony RX 100 m3 is a bit of a problem, at some point, I'll upgrade. The problem with the 6D and similar cameras is that it's more to carry and I'm already loaded down.
I really liked the photo of the tree with the moss hanging on it. Very other-worldly looking. Do you find when you shoot those that you reduce the vibrance or desaturate the images in LR? I like that muted, subdued look and didn't know if the as shot color gave that or you desaturated it to get there.
Thanks, Philip! The RAW image was pretty desaturated to start with so I didn't have to reduce it too much. I reduced the saturation in Photoshop. Thanks again.
Simply stunning work Adam. Your images totally capture the beauty of the Great Outdoors in Canada, and your video editing skills are wonderful too. Totally subscribed and looking forward to seeing a lot more of your work.
Karin made me a new hat after I told her of your last comment about the black hat, haha We shopped for the most colourful wool that we could find. Cheers, Guy!
I wish you had mentioned rough times in your videos. I am visiting Qualicum and Port Renfrew for a week in late June early July. Hope there will be some misty mornings.
A lot of your scenes might benefit from your love interest decked out in antique colorful Tyrollean garb & wicker backpack , about to pluck a magic mushroom from the forest floor . When next in N. Europe , this might be an excuse to comb the used clothing shops . Bring your camera .
Haha! when I was a kid I used to wear a scarlet bowler hat that had a peacock feather stuck in the side of it. My dad bought it for me one Christmas, I must have looked ridiculous. I loved that hat and then someone from school stole it :-( In my climbing days I used to wear wool knickers, does that count, lol. Thanks, Peter!
