Sleeping in my Car for Landscape Photography

Landscape photography requires a certain amount of commitment whether it is a long hike or an early start. In this video I aim to photograph sunset and sunrise in the lake district national park, however I have nowhere to stay for the night. Wild camping is out of the question, campsites were full and hotels are too expensive. My last option was to sleep in my car and it paid off as I woke up to beautiful mist and fog which made for some great landscape photography.

Thomas Heaton Excellent video as always. So very glad the mist came through for you. Torn between the colour and black and white, but I do love the lone sheep in the dark area of the B&W shot. Ordered both your book and calendar and they just arrived two days ago. Love them both. JoAnne

@DECKARD263354BR 4 года назад

Definitely the colour version Thomas, I like how you can see the blue water in the foreground and to the left rear of the image, it's a nice contrast of colours.

@vladimirbelohradsky1578 4 года назад

Hi Thomas, if you are looking for more separation in BW photo use color filters. It is of course possible simulate in post process but not everytime because color filter alter how much light of given color is touching sensor. I thought that color filters are obsolete in digital era but they are not.

@kieran.stafford 4 года назад

Tom, there's a gentleness to your videos. There's an integrity, a respect and a simplicity. I would rate you as a bloody decent film maker at this stage. Also the music that you choose and how you use it. These videos are beautiful and an art form all by themselves.

The higher contrast B&W version wins, I'd be curious if the trees in the background change a different color in the fall (autumn?) and provide that separation too.

@tonyaquino_photography4838 4 года назад

Great video Tom I like the soft colour the best. Both amazing shots 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

@reiddickson 4 года назад

The white cow in the dark grass in the foreground puts the higher contrast photo on top in my opinion. It's one tiny detail that seems to make the foreground feel "whole", though if you were lucky enough to have it standing more towards the left it'd possibly be more balanced. Regardless, wow.. I love that photo. The enormous roots hugging the rocks give the tree on the right so much character.

@JulieWhelanPhotographer 4 года назад

From a woman's perspective, getting caught peeing in the bush is definitely worse. A pose with the right amount of contortion necessary to not pee on myself is way more embarrassing than talking into a camera!! :D

The B&W one. The other one looks a bit empty without the sheep now. It's more dynamic and keeps the eye moving from the sheep to the trees to the background and back.

@huwwiliams8426 3 года назад

Great work Tom and I love the black and white. There is more separation, and detail in the tree. The subject is clearer and I feel more drawn to it.

@tanltdowar 4 года назад

B+W version is better for me. Did you really have a 150 second exposure for the spider's web or was that a typo? Great video. I have shot that spot in the lakes many a time.

@FabrizioZago 4 года назад

@calebsnyder6490 4 года назад

The black and white! With the color one my eye is drawn more to the wall than it is to the tree. The contrast of the tree in the black and white image seems to make the tree the subject!

@robdalziel7056 4 года назад

B&W really brings out the main copse and the sheep is the icing on the cake.

@jacobmurphy3665 4 года назад

Definitely the softer color image. The way the light hits the tree and the overall surroundings makes more of an impact in the color image than the black and white.

@krazYFaic 4 года назад

Soft colored one for me. With the BnW white one, its kinda like what you would normally expect when you want separation. On the colored one the mist only softens the copse of trees itself and not the surrounding foreground and it gives it an ethereal and is a truly lucky turn of events.

@allandavies1187 4 года назад

Hello Thomas, I loved this vlog very much and in particular your drone work. I believe that your work in colour is much stronger than your monochrome, so the colour would be my fave! I really miss that gorgeous motorhome that you used to have and would have loved the opportunity to have purchased it. I used to drool over - it! It had a marvellous bespoke set-up which I was crazy about. You are still my most favourite vlogger and always find your videos highly entertaining....

@erinwiebe7026 4 года назад

My vote is for the B&W version, without hesitation. Like you said yourself in the video Tom, it has all of the elements, the mist behind the tree, and the deep contrasts it helps create. The layering in the foreground of light and shadows is further emphasised by the stone walls, separated by the light falling between them. I adore the sharp details in the tree which on its own creates even more contrast with the software areas behind it. And the little 🐑 is that little bit extra that really puts together the final detail of the composition. The B&W treatment celebrates all of this, and it's easily one of my favourite photos of yours. So well done! Love it!

@judedizon8666 4 года назад

Lovely video journal. I’m torn between the two for one main reason and it isn’t the mist. In the monochrome version the wee lamb was actually my favorite element as it showed scale within the scene. It made the tree seem so much bigger, almost like those giants you see in a rain forest. I think if the wee lamb was in the colored version it would be a win, but because of the of its absence, the monochrome wins out...for me. Great vlog 🙌🏽

Hi Tom. When I first saw the b+w image I thought all your intentions had been realised, the separation worked, and it was an attractive image. But when you revealed the colour version, immediately I felt like I was there with you experiencing the light and the mist and sharing that wonderful moment. In other words, the colour version generated an emotional response, the b+w version was just a ‘nice’ picture. Great video as usual.
