In my opinion Winter is easily the best Landscape Photography season. The low angle light is often incredible for large sections of the day, the crisp clear air often elevates scenes and snow/ice wields the power to transform otherwise mundate landscapes into dramatic images. In this video I head out for an action packed day of Winter landscape photography to show exactly why I love this season so much. Thanks very much for watching and let me know your thoughts on the images captured down below in the comments. Give the video a like if you've enjoyed :-)
I wish you all a brilliant New Year - see you in 2021!

Liked both images, the blue hour has fantastic colour and the long exposure really works well. Looking at the colour and detail in both shots it seems the Z glass is working well for you.

@JamesBrewphoto 3 года назад

Thanks! The Z lenses are second to none

@10shxf 3 года назад

Love the 2 shots, the pebbles in the 1st one look great and the 2nd image is excellent

@paulm8157 3 года назад

Happy New Year, indeed, James! Super images w/contrasting color themes. Blue hour shot something special - rocks and shore alone would set the mood, imo, without the cottage or sky. (Cottage itself nothing “quaint”). Recall a tramway along hill in one of your earlier posts - thought it was a road zig-zagging on mt. Tramway works, especially w/layering of clouds and hills. Thought fall was your favorite season for shooting landscapes. At least there were no gate tropes in this vid😁.

@JamesBrewphoto 3 года назад

Thanks Paul - I would rank the seasons as follows. 4.Spring, 3.Summer, 2.Autumn, 1.Winter. All the best for 2021 🙂

@keithsandercock1412 3 года назад

Freezing your butt off on Christmas Eve? .... what dedication to the craft! Impressive.

@mtj2085 3 года назад

Guessed that the first image of the shoreline was 30 seconds. Your teachings must be sinking in. That blue shoreline was super. Have a great 2021.

@mtj2085 3 года назад

If you were to get a whole new camera system from scratch today for Landscape photography which brand and camera model would you buy? Or would you wait for some future camera on the horizon?

@JamesBrewphoto 3 года назад

Thank you! Very hard question to answer without my own bias slipping in. I honestly think the Z7 and Z lenses are all I need really. If they can bring a light 70-200 f4 which accepts teleconverts to the lens roadmap then its pretty much perfect

@barryphilp7948 3 года назад

Both images are great due to hard work and sound creative skills. The explanation of your technique and settings used are very helpful, thanks James

@BruceConsidine 3 года назад

Beautiful images and video. Hypothermia and overcast are tough on photography and photographers. I've been up on Snaefell NOT in the winter and it was breezy (my pedestrian touristy photos were super overcast.) Strong freezing damp wind can kill. The way your pack strap was flapping around that was a strong wind and you didn't look like you had enough layers on for it. Snaefell killed a wind turbine (tower?) once. Good call on turning back. The lone car reminds me of driving from Ramsey to Douglas.

@paulus0109 3 года назад

That... was a great photo. Wel done with blending! Thnx for 2020 James.

@iainmc9859 3 года назад

Both lovely shots but I prefer the beach one as the colour contrast of the trackway sunset is too defined - tropical island sunset with snowy scene beneath - even if it was SOOC I'd blend it a bit. Funny how you said I've got 'about two hours before the sun sets', and my first thought was ....wishful thinking. Glad you changed your mind. The 'Rule of Thumb' states you have one hour of sunlight, for each one thumb knuckle the sun is above the horizon at arms length. Surprising how true this holds, season in, season out. If you drop into a valley it holds true. The south side of some valleys get no direct sunlight at all in winter. I think the one thing that 2020 has taught us is 'live on an island, a small one, the smaller the better'. Actually, there's a second, 'trust science, not politicians!' Have a wonderful, safe and happy New Year.

Happy New Year James, both shots were awesome, I definitely like the second one better. That’s a gorgeous picture! Did you use any filters on the camera in either shot. Thanks again James...and a very prosperous NY to you as well..2021 will be a great year.

@JamesBrewphoto 3 года назад

Thanks Robert! No filters used for either of the images. The light levels were so low that an ND filter wasn't needed for the pre-dawn image. Happy new year to you too 🙂

James! You’ve talked it up, man! 😆 But seriously, your blue hour shot is beautiful. Actually, your sunset shot is also beautiful. You are so lucky to live on such a photogenic island. Happy new year, buddy and let’s pray that 2021 is clear of the damned virus.

@thanosbistolas6903 3 года назад

I believe that the second image is really nice James. The 70mm choice was great as the sun did not just disappear in the background. The light was superb too. Best wishes for the New Year. Looking forward to seeing more of your work!!

Happy New Year James and thanks for all the content in 2020, it's helped make a bad year a little better. Do you have any plans for the Z 70-200mm f2.8 in 2021? I've had mine for about 6 weeks now and absolutely love it, and would be delighted to see you review it. Also enjoyed hyour appearances on the Skye Photo Academy Photography Online channel. All the best for 2021!

@JamesBrewphoto 3 года назад

Thank you Richard! Happy New Year! As good as the 70-200 looks I don't plan to get it at the moment. I'm going to wait to see if Nikon bring any lighter telephoto options to the table like a 70-200 f4 or the 100-400 which is on their Z roadmap. Hopefully by summer I'll have a better idea

@navydave1 3 года назад

Awesome shot. Do you think you could do a vid on your process for focus stacking and shots at different exposure levels and how to combine them all together for one shot? Thanks

@JamesBrewphoto 3 года назад

Cheers! I’ve done a video on exposure blending which covers the basics of the techniques, I posted that around 6 months ago. Will possibly post more on the topic soon 👍

Forget the z7 question just been re watching lol and caught your z7 review, happy hearing about the 24-70 lens been good as its coming with my z6 ii 😀

@JamesBrewphoto 3 года назад

I’ve had my Z7 for around 8 months now and I love it. I now also have a Z6 which I shoot all my video on too. I rate the z line very highly, you won’t regret buying 👍

@Circharles Год назад

@@JamesBrewphoto nice video, what profile do you shoot your videos in?... I have the z6 and im having trouble with the sky being over exposed when shooting outside. ND filter used of course

@Moregoreable 3 года назад

The photography I'm doing at the moment uses less and less too long exposures, the max is 2 seconds I prefer the "lines" created by water and not the "foggy" look, on second I would be on tracks to create depth. But hey that's me and ofc everyone sees it differently! Subscribed, have a great year.

@jamesoliver6625 3 года назад

James Every time you mention where you are, I have to stop the video and look it up, realizing that as I do so, the Isle of Mann is only one-fifth the size of the middling sized county I live in here in central Texas. I should be able to find landscapes that at least shine the shoes of the vistas that you shoot. you'd think.

@JamesBrewphoto 3 года назад

Yeah the island is pretty small - 227 square miles! If 2020 has taught me anything its the importance of valuing my local area. All the best for 2021 James
