The 90mm shot with the three trees is easily a portfolio image imo. You managed some wonderful shots !

@Michaelboblotchan Год назад

That picture of the ancients oak tree at 90mm is amazing!

@cina9218 Год назад

Those oaks... wow stunning! I've taken so many of my favorite shots by the side of the highway. What a miracle.

@nicknichols4249 Год назад

Great images, it was heart warming to once again to hear the crank mechanism of the camera and the sound of the mirror locking up.

@AnthonyCrouchPhotography Год назад

The final pano after the light hit with the three trees, magnificent Thomas. Beautiful man. Love it. Portfolio piece for sure!!!

@therealpoka Год назад

So weird and amazing to see you shoot in my old areas. I had a house a bit further down the road from the field with the oak trees.

@JimmyOlsson Год назад

I was right about my guesses in the last video about the location! Söderåsen National Park and it's surroundings near the village of Röstånga, including the Oden lake, is an incredibly beautiful area! I'm fortunate to live 40 minutes away by car and I and my wife love to camp with our caravan at the nearby camping about 3-4 times every year! I loved the photos, especially the ones with the old oak trees! I have to visit that place and take a few photos myself! This series have been a treat to watch! Looking forward to the next video!

@Viktoryous Год назад

Hej Jimmy! Har du möjligtvis koordinaterna till platsen med ekarna i fältet? Verkade som du hade koll på vart det ligger. Man blev ju löjligt sugen på att få testflyga det själv.

@JimmyOlsson Год назад

@@Viktoryous Nej, tyvärr! Ska kolla runt lite. Trodde först att det kunde vara vägen mot Blinkarp från Röstånga camping, men efter att ha kollat Google Maps så kan jag bekräfta att det inte är så. Vore skoj att veta var det är! :)

@milesawayjackson Год назад

@thomasheaton the complexity and balance of the composition, light and lines in the river shot is just exquisite! Bravo!

@peetje28021970 Год назад

That tree shot with the 90mm is just awesome.

@rolandswales8753 Год назад

Wonderful Autumn images, love the Xpan shots, especially the last ones with Oak trees, worth hanging on those extra minutes and rewarded by the lovely light

@catmonkey6826 Год назад

You are brilliant mate, it's not just the photography tips and tricks that you share or the beautiful places you take us, or the superb images you share, you're also a great film maker, that gets overlooked sometimes. Your channel makes a big difference to my day. Thanks

@johnsmith1474 Год назад

He's a fine storyteller that's for sure.

@oliviernoir6669 Год назад

I was going to say the same - you do not teach us tips and tricks but, more importantly, the mood of landscape photography. Your approach, the way you do things teach me and help me a lot in my photography.

@ThomasHeatonPhoto Год назад

These is a really nice comment to read, thank you. Videos like this don't always perform as well as the more headline grabbing top tip videos, but reading such comments encourages me to continue on this path of video making.

@zongmuas Год назад

The Green in the photo at 14:14 just POPS. What an incredible shot.

@larsahlander2128 Год назад

Hi Thomas. Nice to see you in a place I can relate to. I been to "Söderåsens nationalpark" several times and its always wonderful, not the least in the spring with the beech tree having light green leaves and thousands of white hoppers on the ground. I also got some nice pictures of an heron fishing in the little stream in the bottom of the ravine. A place I definitely recommend for someone visiting the south of Sweden. I think you got some lovely pictures with lovely autumn colors.

@ello3646 Год назад

Hallelujah indeed! The roadside's photographs were simply stunning!

@GangnamStyle284 Год назад

I’m in shock at how astoundingly good the shots were of the field with a few grand old trees in it. I paused my washing up and just stared open jawed at them… I absolutely love film photography (I recently got a Hasselblad 500cm myself), so seeing someone so skilful use film is so exciting!

@ThomasHeatonPhoto Год назад

That's great feedback, thanks a lot. Autumn colour certainly helps with the photography. Wish I didn't overexpose that first image though 😔

@JoshSherrill Год назад

@Thomas Heaton is the master of composition when it comes to trees in fields lol. I always know some great shots are coming when he starts shooting in an open area.

@IvanRiveraStagea Год назад

That photo is just astonishing! This is a once in a lifetime kind of result for most of us but Thomas makes it look so easy.

@johnsmith1474 Год назад

@@IvanRiveraStagea - Which? It was a nice day of shooting but I saw nothing that would add to his excellent portfolio where the bar is pretty high.

@IvanRiveraStagea Год назад

@@johnsmith1474 The lighting, balance and color of the image at 13:53 is great. I know it is not an exotic location and that it does not stand up against ths rest of his portfolio images. It's just that most people that shoot film part time (like me) generally do not have many images of that quality. The fact that he was able to generate such a beautiful image just by the roadside (in a location that is new to him even) adds to output's charm.

@wendynewing8834 Год назад

On the strength of these images alone your trip to Sweden and purchase of the Hasselblad Xpan II panoramic film camera was well worth it. I especially loved the illuminated tree in the field and also the wider version at 13.03.

@adam.bilton Год назад

13.53 what an image. What a scene! Stunning, brilliant, wow

@Zacheldridge Год назад

Man I love vibing out to your vids. So relaxing! Always great music choices.

@alexmosqueira Год назад

12:55 one of your best shots ever…. Aaaaaaaaaamaaaazing! ❤❤❤❤❤

@jamietallingbell Год назад

The shots in this video just got better and better, amazing work!

@hzubovi1 Год назад

Nature always treats You. And what a treat You got. Those trees with that lighting look beautiful

@neildethridge9455 Год назад

Purely a magical place and so well put together, just brilliant

@DimitrisKaramanos Год назад

Söderåsen: the south ridge in English. Sweden is saturation heaven at the end of Oct-beginning of November. Keep making these videos Tom, we are all mighty thankful.

@richardfarrar3247 Год назад

When I saw the shot with the field of trees, there was a sharp intake of breath and a exclamation…wow!!. my wife looked at me and asked if I was ok. “Just look at this” I said. “Have you ever seen something so simply beautiful”. Her reaction….Wow!! Says it all Tom.

@n3cph0en1x Год назад

The second oak tree shot with the Xpan II is just magnificent! I had to pause the video and was looking at it for a while. Amazing.

@michaelj.1121 Год назад

Besides the fabulous images and tutelage the really top thing is watching someone radiating enthusiasm and a positive attitude- thanks much

@joshhenderson9492 Год назад

The 90mm shot is absolutely incredible

@Gj_frames Год назад

That 90mm (13:47) oak shot, a masterpiece!!!

@macronencer Год назад

Really enjoying this trip! The 90mm shot of the oaks made me stand up and applaud. Lovely stuff!

@PB4U Год назад

"Settings unknown" Ahh yes, the joy of film shooting

@ijustfelldown Год назад

I love looking at your van footage. It's become a character of its own on this channel.

@garymorrison277 Год назад

Being a Scandinavian country you think of Sweden being miles and miles of pine trees. But in this instance it makes a surprising but nice change and when you think about it the vikings made their ships from Oak.

@peterfritzphoto Год назад

WOW!! That shot of the three trees at 13:45 is perfection! Lovely work, Tom.

@CalebWeston_dubland Год назад

Love the panoramic photos, and looks like it was the perfect setting to try out the new camera. Thanks for sharing!

@maleneekelund9497 Год назад

Your videos are a highlight of the week. It’s all so calming like a break from all the craziness of the internet 🤗

@rolandholtz8250 Год назад

The Hasselblad C 500 was one of my favorit camera of all times, only to be exceeded by the Rollei SL 66. You don't know, what memories this shooting brought up. Great thank you very much. (maybeIhavetogetoneagainsoon)😀

@DavidHarrisGRI Год назад

Some nice shots in this one. Your filmmaking skills are really showing some polish too. I look forward to this every week.

@JayFunningham Год назад

I'm living in Sydney for 4 years while I study (currently 3 years in). The shot of trees in the field at the end with autumn colours and gray skies made me feel so nostalgic for my native Northern Irish scenery. Sydney is beautiful, but there's 'no' autumn here as almost all the trees are evergreen.

@annettemilnes3880 Год назад

Should take a drive into the mountains for a very different landscape.

@Sarmor1985 Год назад

Bloody hell ! That 90mm XPan tree shot is mind-blowing !! It's as unnatural as it is superbly executed !

@Sarmor1985 Год назад

That one requires a large print, there's no doubt about it !

@AlbertoNoys Год назад

I just bought your book, partly because I’m sure it’s beautiful but also to thank you for the inspiration you’ve caused in me (and many others) over all this time, sincerely. Thank you.

@RancidTony Год назад

The second shot by the water works for me. A combination of the composition, reflection and polariser creates a very pleasant, tranquil image.

@ThomasHeatonPhoto Год назад

I wasn't sure at first, but it's growing on me.

@owenfetherston6906 Год назад

That first Xpan composition is unreal! The river in the background is so well placed because it drew me in and really ties the image together nicely.

@sylvestersanchez3319 Год назад

13:46 straight from heaven!

@johnround8311 Год назад

The photos of the old oaks look surreal. Well done.

@extremelydave Год назад

The field/tree shots were the photos that made my eyes happy. I love the pano shots. They just seem to make a more dramatic story to me.

@andrzejboloczko3750 Год назад

Amazing shots! I loved especially those taken from the roadside ☺

@ariaan_ Год назад

Fantastic images Thomas, and especially stunning shots in the second half of the video.

@NathanGilmer Год назад

Dude those X-pan shots of the Oak trees on the side of the road are my favorite shots of yours yet! Really stunning!

@bingebinge3722 Год назад

12:58 This is gorgeous!

@123toyah Год назад

I have received my landscape photography book as a birthday present from my wife. Highly recommended. Fabulous and I'll have hours of pleasure reviewing the images and watching the videos. Thank you thomas for sharing your passion/lifestyle/career here on RU-vid.

@derkarhu5079 Год назад

lovely to see your excitement, pleasure, shooting on very different formats, Provia...

@Leffe49 Год назад

Beautiful Panorama shots Thomas! 👍 Skäralid is about 30km from our front door and is a very nice place, making some photographs during Spring and Autumn seasons.

@MichaelZieschang Год назад

Love shooting film.. Using these cameras is like driving oldtimer cars. You arrive at any destination with any car, but it's got so much more character to the process.

@outwithsara70 Год назад

Thanks Thomas for sharing these amazing pics and your journey. Quanta bellezza. Grazie, Rosaria

@bayuwras Год назад

Wandering, exploring national park looks like something legendary in your channel, Thomas.

@dianneturner4874 Год назад

Just loved the last shot of the ancient oak, absolutely stunning!

@bicishoots Год назад

I love all these shots, but the pano at the 11:00-minute mark felt like looking at a painting, in the best way possible. Excellent.

@krbyTHING Год назад

I love your visual storytelling. Thank you!

@RadAlzyoud Год назад

The photos by the road are really beautiful. Well done.

@MBroam Год назад

These were all fantastic, but the ones in the national park were just perfection.

@hkkbs Год назад

I'm happy that you came to Sweden at last! You got some really good shots!

@zmanindy Год назад

Those shots by the road was amazing when the light change I was saying YEAH! the light the clouds!.....loved the last shot with the different colors evenly split in 1/3's green then fall colors then grey clouds......thanks for giving me inspiration on the woodland that is about as much good scenery there is in my part of the world.

@mordenohare2550 Год назад

Some fantastic images! Especially loved the last 2.

@hesk4u Год назад

The close-up pano on the trees is beautiful!

@arthurised Год назад

Tom, I sense an opportunity here to help pay for the Hasselblad Xpan II. Reading through all the comments, the majority of them announce that the field oaks are the author's favourite. Therefore, perhaps a limited edition print run?? Anyway, another stunning Heaton masterclass in the art of photography. Thanks so much for keeping us all entertained over the years.

@grudy07 Год назад

Some of my favorite photos in that National Park and the 90mm Oak Tress! Thanks, Thomas!

@nevvynnevvyn Год назад

Yeah, you finessed it enough, there was order in the chaos. Great stuff.

@juricagalekovic937 Год назад

Amazing. I'm speechless. Don't know what to say honestly.

@ollielane656 Год назад

This video and images has to be my favourite. Those colours are so good.

@user-ei2zj2zg3d Год назад

Молодец!!! Шикарные снимки, шикарные места для съёмок. С нетерпением жду следующей серии. Удачи!!!!

@connor56347 Год назад

Yep those 2 roadside shots are pretty incredible and well worth the wait

@ThomasHeatonPhoto Год назад

Yeah, I'm happy with how they came out, but it was stressful with cars whizzing by.

@brianbeattyphotography Год назад

Wow I actually prefer the non-polarized shot as well. The polarized one seems much too warm, while the first was more true-to life with those colors more balanced. What a beautiful spot in the woods! I've certainly taken a spill or two on steep hillsides just like that one, haha. Glad it was only the video cam that took a hit. That pano at 11:00 was absolutely super! And great luck there with the light breaking. Made for an awesome pano at the end! I had similar luck the last morning I went out, but unfortunately the light moved way too fast to video any of it!

@iwasapirateonce1639 Год назад

The non-polarized shot keeps the darker tones on the tree trunks which I think looks nice.

@thefirstman2007 Год назад

I’m with you. I actually really disliked the Polarized shot!

@AnthonyCrouchPhotography Год назад

Agreed

@oliviernoir6669 Год назад

I agree - I found the one with the poliarizer looked a bit artificial in terms of colors.

@haitowerix Год назад

the images of the oak trees are amazing with that lovely light!

@JoshSherrill Год назад

The 90mm shot of the oak trees in the field is unreal. Looks straight out of Middle Earth.

@TyRonKitzeRow Год назад

That is my favorite too!

@jean-charles9931 Год назад

Why is Thomas so blessed with such lighting conditions, and not us? That's unfair 😉

@NathanGilmer Год назад

Middle Earth! That was my thought too. Maybe in the plains in the south of Gondor.

@justinmeaden6281 Год назад

Lovely video, really liked to square crop pool picture, lovely composition and no too busy at all as well as the first roadside pano, just love the light on all those spaced out trees in the field. 👏👏👏

@gillianb_aus Год назад

Another great video. What great shots in the national park. Glad you persevered at the roadside, particularly liked the first two. Looking forward to the next edition of your trip.

@MartinVesiaidNilsson Год назад

Lovely photos and so great seeing how you work. A tip that is a bit late I guess - you now have the Xpan and you also have access to the Őresund bridge. The longest in Europe. Does seem like a match, don't it! There is a foot path that allows you to walk all the way down to and even under the bridge . Might be fun to try one day, when the road takes you back to Sweden . Safe travels!

@2007rSix Год назад

I canNOT believe that Ektachrome looks like this! I’m inspired! Keep up the good work Thomas!

@glynparry6598 Год назад

Great images Tom. You’re getting good at this film stuff. Well done 👍

@jacobmunkhammar3775 Год назад

Ah! My neck of the woods. Literally. Great fun to see you in "my" forrest!

@blackcygnus3177 Год назад

A highlight of my Wednesday evening/Thursday morning is watching one of your video's Thomas. Again this week you have delivered an excellent video with awesome images. Thank you so much!

@Mr.Deeds. Год назад

Amazing series...loved the photos, place, music...perfect!

@bonbon_aska Год назад

that Oak tree with XPAN is brutal.... i never knew shooting landscape can be this fun...

@maandalen Год назад

I visit Söderåsen a few times a year and there's always something new to shoot. The forest and the river shift over time and since I live quite close nearby I often make a note to revisit a composition at a different time of year to see if it's settled into something more photogenic.

@BriManeely Год назад

Some absolute bangers in that set, Thomas!! Great work! Hope you had a blast.

@whafrog Год назад

I'm always so impressed how you create order, or at least an appealing pattern, out of chaotic scenes. Fantastic as usual!

@PhotoDude801 Год назад

Love the image at 13:40...very nice! As always thanks for sharing, Thomas!

@Shane_Fearon Год назад

Some of your best work. Found the video quite emotional, very inspiring. Great job Tom.

@vojtasedlak4547 Год назад

The 90mm tree shot is amazing. Great job!

@justinholding02 Год назад

@hughp00 Год назад

The open field of the tress was fabulous. Great videoTom. Stay safe my friend!

@scotty4418 Год назад

I would be doing well to capture those images in digital format Thomas, let alone in film. Just goes to show the talent you possess to create such great images

@kronkite1530 Год назад

Lovely images, again. One day I must scratch that 501 sized itch. One thing that strikes me as odd is that many feel 35mm too limited with resolution, detail, tonality etc. yet are impressed by XPan photos, each half of which is… 35mm !

@andreasgiobel6355 Год назад

If you stick with the photo at 6:57 for a bit you realize that is awesome. Orange on the right, black with reflections in center as it moves over to yellow on the left with a lot of depth. Well Done, a great shoot in my eye . BTW it would de interesting to se you experiment with X-Pan for vertical shoots.

@baharam98 Год назад

Absolutely Gorgeous Photos. Brilliant as always. LOVE IT

@Zanten81 Год назад

What a treat to see you work in my part of the world. Countless hours I've been running around in Söderåsens Nationalpark looking for compositions. Always coming home with isolated scenes and macros. The surroundings are beautiful, but very chaotic. Amazing to see your process here. Hope you enjoyed the experience. Thanks for this, and keep up the good work.

@affenhobbitjo Год назад

What a masterpiece that picture of the dominant oak tree truly is! In my personal view it's the best shot you've shown here on the channel. I hope you're as happy about it as I am looking at it! Respect for your patience and belive in that picture Mr. Heaton

@brianglock3099 Год назад

Fun, nice work. Use to shoot Fuji Velvia 50 in my 500cm or Extachrome 100 Pro. Negative, porta 160. Need to replace the light traps on my film backs. The Hasselblad is always fun to use.

@michaelhale416 Год назад

It always amazes me how little faith you portray with your film photography. Your shots are amazing, and I can only wish that I can get at least one film shot as good as one of your worst, I would be in heaven. You have an instinct and skill that I am sure many envy. You have taught me a lot, especially about perseverance. Love your videos, keep up the good work. Cheers.
