After feeling low for a few weeks and really struggling with motivation to get outside and take photos, things have started to turn around. Today I feel good, I feel excited to get out and enjoy some landscape photography and I feel motivated. I load some Kodak Portra 160 film in to my Hasselblad 501cm and head to the beach. I encounter a storm, beautiful light and a glorious sunrise. I hope you enjoy this video and if you're feeling like you can't or shouldn't get out with your camera, I hope this video can help turn things around for you. 10% off your first Squarespace website or domain: www.squarespac...

Thomas - I love the fact you don’t talk to the camera. Don’t even try to change the way you narrate. 👍🏻

@jimwlouavl 3 года назад

I’d love to hear more about how you scan and process the negatives.

@keithmagee4450 3 года назад

He sends the film to a lab then scans it to digital and processed in Photoshop

@cragshots9134 3 года назад

Using the labs - pros and cons - drum scaning - differences in sending file specs. for saybook publication as opposed to large prints for display -would make a great vid Thomas as there is so little info. on the web that I can find.

@AndyBanner 3 года назад

That life ring is a cracking shot. Entertaining as ever and an inspiration.

@ThomasHeatonPhoto 3 года назад

Thanks a lot. Glad you like it too 👍

@@ThomasHeatonPhoto How would it be in black and white with a bit more contrast? More dramatic or just a bit too cliche...?

@johnsmith1474 3 года назад

It's a passe' tourist or freshman art student throwaway. And Heaton knows it, he won't print it. He has a fantastic eye, not a junk tourist picture eye. He's just playing with the 'Blad.

@Fell_Wanderer 3 года назад

The best locations are closer than one thinks and on most peoples doorstep. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Just look outside, there is a picture to be had at every sunrise and sunset, its all about the light.

@apocalypso1564 3 года назад

Some of those circumstances where people were passing through would've been incredible candid images. I think it would be amazing to see you try this a bit more!

The reason I love watching your content is the fact that you are so humble! Your photos speak for themselves so doesn't matter if you talk in public or voice over them later! Keep up the legendary work! 🔥👌

@ianstenson7045 3 года назад

It is good that people are getting out and about BUT only if they take all the precautions required of them, social distancing, wearing a mask. Great picture of lifebelts!

Is it just me, or does anyone else feel an emotional reaction to soft pastel images?

@kevins8575 3 года назад

I love the way English beaches are crowded in the cold and rain. Very interesting image of the life ring.

@coreyhart1850 3 года назад

I love the texture the small stones add and contrasting textures between the small stones & water in the bottom of the frame of that second beach scene!

@rokacsapda 3 года назад

For me the life ring is the best! There is no any better than making videos...

@chadroberts44 3 года назад

I love all the photos and colors in this series. I especially love the one with the people. I've been watching your channel for years and have always appreciated not seeing man made objects or people but for some reason this one really feels good.

@maxencelemoine4190 3 года назад

Film photography + 120 format + square + portra + sea = amen ! I have complicated history with portra, sometimes I have very nice results, and sometimes, I don't...

@rcl-crafter8 3 года назад

We watch ALL your videos - every Sunday. It's "MUST SEE TV!!". You don't have to EVER apologize for doing your style or liking what you like. You do you!!! We ALL appreciate it!! Even if it's not what we shoot, it's great to get the perspectives of ALL artists! Keep up the great work!!! Patty

@davidwillis6580 3 года назад

Enjoyable to watch and certainly shows that pictures can be found anywhere

@steffen_a 3 года назад

It’s nice to see you step out of your usual style and include people and manmade objects. The first one with the life ring is absolutely beautiful!

@ThomasHeatonPhoto 3 года назад

Glad you like it. It struck me as a subject well worth shooting, but the sky makes it.

@tonicanabate6232 3 года назад

I am with you Steffen. And I'd like to see Thomas explore and develop the human presence in some of his landscape shots. I don't know why I suspect Thomas have a lot to contribute following that rabbit hole.

@sheddi64 3 года назад

I like the context given by the people on the beach, the contrast between the red jacket and the moving yellow jacketed person gives the picture an impressionist painting feel. Different but pleasing. Keep up the good work .

@iftikh 3 года назад

Thomas Heaton always inspires

@AndrewLanxonPhotography 3 года назад

A lovely bit of 'classic Heaton'

@michaeltillman886 3 года назад

What's up Thomas? Glad to see you're in such good spirit on such a nice morning at the beach. It appear you've really adapted your self to that great film camera you have. I think everyone should at lease try it, because it can teach you much more about photography than digital. You see, they're is something about film that make you appreciate what you're doing more, because everything is done in camera; there is no delete button. What you see is what you get. So you have to be spot-on. Looks to me you're doing real good. Enjoy the rest of your morning. Peace!!!!

@ThomasParis 3 года назад

Love the soft, peaceful colours of Portra. Way better than the garish, boring hell so many people favour these days. And I'm with you on trying not to include people but, interestingly enough, my favourite from what I made today includes two people. Go figure... Thanks for another nice watch!

@MrBrad898540 3 года назад

Spontaneity to me is the essence of great photography. Never shy away from trying something different in the moment.

@PrimalOutdoors 3 года назад

I really enjoyed the style of this video, Tom. I am with you I don’t like talking on camera when people around. Jason

@outisfound9956 3 года назад

Being a photographer I don't even like being on camera. Give me a tent dogs a camera. I will talk to nature and try and let my photos speak to humans.

@donyee8970 3 года назад

Excellent job! Some say creativity requires limitations. Looks like you used your limitations well. People and inclement weather are now your sources of inspiration.

@simon.revill 3 года назад

Beautiful colours, I love how the Hasselblad viewfinder renders the image. I quite liked the image through the viewfinder with the man and his dog in silhouette, with their reflection in the pool (7:27)

@JeffandLeslie 3 года назад

Good to see you excited and motivated again. We all go through down periods and times we're not feeling creative. Good you're snapping out of it.

@millymucci 3 года назад

yes the second especially has that soft ethereal quality, lovely angelic colours actually, to my sensibilities! really enjoy these videos - much learning, motivation and aspiration for this second-hand nikon d3100 + kit lense'r with L plates on who has used her iphone camera far too much! 🙏🏼🙏🏼

@sebxiou-lifestyle4465 3 года назад

Welcome Back, Mr Heaton. Great to see you more enthusiastic - and producing great local pix. Thank you for these. Great shots.

@therampanthamster 3 года назад

I really love the life ring image Tom

@evslone 3 года назад

Saw that dramatic sky when you first hit the beach and wondered why you didn't shoot it. But then it became clear from your focus that your mindset was to find tranquility, peace and the more subtle beauty of Nature. Something we all crave right now. Loved the dog trying to give you its blue toy at the end. Cheers.

@henryhammond4653 3 года назад

Your composition today was my favorite location and condition ... tide pools low tide after a storm.

@wantagehoward 3 года назад

So good to see Whitley Bay again. Engaging chat too. Thank you.

@lyndapassey2752 3 года назад

I really like the first image with the storm clouds and the lifebuoy ring. The colour is amazing! My other favourite is the image with the people in it. I normally don't like people in my images but I agree with one of the comments below about getting candid shots and another comment that this can add so much. The person walking by with the dog would have made a lovely image but I think you were still setting up at that stage. Thank you Thomas.

@droguk1 3 года назад

We visited Whitley Bay a couple of years ago mainly after seeing your images of St. Mary's lighthouse. You are in a cracking area and glad to see you have a bit of your mojo back to enjoy it.

@joewelsh1804 3 года назад

Nice simple, but effective shots. The one with the people reminiscent of picture postcards. A good advert for our home town. I wish I had a fiver for every time I've replaced that lifebelt in it's holder.

Perfect. Loved you talking through the light meter. I am loving the film videos. This is also helping me to just take the shot rather than always waiting for each frame to be epic.

@jessemasci9986 3 года назад

Nothing wrong with the narrating! No apologies necessary. I like the shots, especially the lifesaver one!

I didn't realise you didn't like to speak to the camera with people around. that's something that's always put me off doing youtube, now you've made me rethink. I absolutely love that people shot. the colours were beautiful then with an added splash of colour pop from their coats. super!

@micgent 3 года назад

The figures in the beachscape added a documentary to the image. Really nice set of images.

@davegrenier1160 3 года назад

Don't worry about doing voice-overs. They're perfectly fine. In fact, for "quieter" videos they're a little less immediate than live talk, and therefore more appropriate. And we'd rather hear a voice-over than have you miss a shot because you were talking to us while the light is changing!

@alexandermenzies9954 3 года назад

Some years ago the late writer Tom Weir (Scots Magazine) said he often asked his wife to wear a red jacket, particularly when there was likely to be swathes of green in a landscape, and then placed her in a spot to help balance the composition. A useful accessory :-).

@dansceats8840 3 года назад

Absolutely love the life ring shot!

@blythewarland6688 3 года назад

I have been following you for a while now because of your honestly, openness and willingness to share your knowledge. The truthfulness of this post shows that professionals as well as us avid amateurs hit flat spots I'm very unmotivated and photography is a major part of my life. So it's nice to know I'm not alone

@andrewwhittle1817 3 года назад

Love the video, intuitive and refreshing. A great new attitude rising above the daily challenges. Hope to see more like this and you enjoying it certainly shows in the making.

A strategically placed person in the shot can often add balance and interest, particularly if they are wearing complementary bright colours.

Hi Thomas nice vlog . I'm still shielding at home . I. Had so many ideas for photos . Then march we went into lockdown . Then they said you have to shield . Ok no worries it's what it is . August we had a cheeky trip in the caravan. I managed a few shots on the beach not great conditions . Remember I'm still shielding haha . New year new start as they say . New major lockdown & shield again . Since first lockdown mid October we moved . My photography has come alive again at last . We moved 6 miles . New village new photo opportunities abound . We all lose our way photographically. What I'm getting at it comes back one way or another . Love you're vlogs , very honest .

I like this style for a change of pace. I particularly like the people on the beach. It's a popular place, rightfully so, so it's fun to see people there.
