Tough Photography Conditions

Sometimes the weather conditions for photography can be a little tough to say the least and on this film I'm faced with that exact scenario, and also I'm against the clock, which never helps. As an amateur nature photographer, I have to take what available time I can get my hands on and make the best of it. This film sees me adjust my shooting expectations to meet with the conditions I am dealt with. Never the less, I get four new images to add to my collection and three of them are rather good under the circumstances.

I follow and subscribe to many landscape photographer's channels. I learn so much from everyone. But Simon, you are the one photographer whose work I appreciate the most. I don't often get a chance to travel to those iconic locations so many photographers feature. Like you, because of work and other commitments, I'm pretty much confined to my local preserves and woodlands. You prove to me time and time again, photographs can be found just about everywhere. The woodland you were in for this video is very similar to what I have nearby my home. You give me the inspiration to get out in any condition and just LOOK! With patience, I will and often do find something. THANK YOU! Merry Christmas!

I often wonder if I had a limitless amount of money would I do anything different? I think I would go to some overseas places occasionally, but my heart will always be in my own country, and often close to where I live. Places nearby are so easy to overlook. Happy Christmas.

23:13 thought you’d started writing some gangster prose for a moment 😂 “Beach .. Young beaches are blowing in the wind” sounds very poetic for some reason lol

"Slutchy" now there's a word I haven't heard since I was a kid in Lancashire. Hydrocortisone cream is good for itchiness...better than scratching! Another great video 😊.

I really did laugh when I read your comment. I thought that was a universal term. Sometimes we really do think we are at the centre of the universe ha ha 😂

I am enjoying following this challenge that you’ve set out and each time I check in, I am excited for your discoveries. I particularly liked the shot of the bark, but all of the images had something to appreciate. Thank you for a wonderful year of creativity shared with us. All the best for 2024!

lovely images Simon as always, particularly like the second one. The one thing I have learned from you over the last couple of years is to really look which is reinforced every week, thanks for posting these videos

not at all Simon, it's reassuring and inspiring

Hi Simon, another great and inspirational video! My favorite photograph is your last one of the back side of the bark which is absolutely mesmerizing. For me it’s like nature’s jigsaw puzzle.

@stevejenkins5362 7 месяцев назад

Thank you for another inspirational film. Has given me the jump start I need as I've been sitting in the warm thinking it's too miserable and cold to go out, and the time of year where there's little to photograph. Beautifully pleasing images as usual

@SimonBoothPhotography 7 месяцев назад

I’ve said it time and time again, there’s always something to photograph if you just leave the comfort of the house and go and look for it. Good luck in your adventure.

A pleasure as always Simon. Thanks for a great year of photography adventures. I blame you for me spending over an hour on one branch in a local woodland, and I still didn't get enough 'slices' for the focus stack! It was very therapeutic though. Did get a decent one of a fern. Merry Christmas and a happy 2024 when it comes.

@SimonBoothPhotography 6 месяцев назад

Thank you so much for watching over this last year. Yes, those focus stacks can be a little troubling times.

Fantastic photographs as always, Simon. Plus, it’s so valuable to listen your explanation of why you’ve chosen a scene and then how you shot it! And- wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Hi Simon. Time seems to be one of the biggest challenges for landscape photographers. I've probably had the busiest Autumn in many years - lots of print sales have kept me busy but I was lucky that the Autumn colours kept going and going, so I was able to get a few good images! I always find this period between the end of Autumn and what I consider "proper" Winter to be quite uninspiring but I've got to try harder at seeing and working on intimate scenes such as yours here. Watching you work these scenes has given me a kick up the proverbial to get out before the storm arrives on Thursday. Many thanks for sharing. Best wishes for Christmas and the new year.

@SimonBoothPhotography 6 месяцев назад

Hi Tim. It seems I’m the complete opposite to you in that I need to kick myself up the backside and get out to the larger scenes. I’ve virtually missed most of the autumn colour this year owing to work commitments. However, I intend next year to still stay fairly local, but go within one to two hours from my home to expand my options a little more. Happy Christmas to you and all the best for 2024.

Super images, Simon. I really appreciate the closeups in nature . It sure gives me inspiration , to go out , anytime, and look at the woodlands floor . And no further than a few miles, too. thanks. KB

@SimonBoothPhotography 6 месяцев назад

Thank you Ken, I appreciate that not Everyone can travel great distances so it’s nice to show what is available close to home. Merry Christmas

@carlarivas1238 6 месяцев назад

Hello Simon, what beautiful images that call all photographers to slow down and just look carefully. I especially love the texture and depth that you always achieve. I may have missed this in the past, but this is the first time I have heard you mention your job. You have great knowledge about many aspects of nature (plants, trees and poop!). Can you share the nature of your work?

@SimonBoothPhotography 6 месяцев назад

Hi Carla, thank you for watching. Yes I work as an ecologist. Perhaps that explains it.

@wolfgangmarvelous7239 7 месяцев назад

I particularly liked the shot of the young beech trees along the stream and the patterns in the scotch pine bark.

@mervroberts5134 6 месяцев назад

Yet another enjoyable film Simon, I especially liked the second image. As soon as you got into the video, I saw that beautiful stream and wondered if you would explore it for compositions, although, I don’t suppose having those trainers on would have helped in that regard. The landscape image is a beauty( amazing the difference a polarizer makes), and I liked the triptych superimposed over it at the end. Thanks for entertaining us all with your films, I shall look forward to more next year. From down under, wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas and prosperous New Year.

@SimonBoothPhotography 6 месяцев назад

It was a bit of a nightmare that day when everything that could go wrong did go wrong. I was lucky to come away with anything to be honest and yes, absolutely going in that stream was a nonstarter considering that I didn’t have decent footwear. Thank you and happy Christmas.

Hello Simon, these are amazing photos. I love the diagonal leaves especially, well executed! You give me inspiration to look more carefully when I am out for photography. I tried using a macro extension tube in my last video. Please feel free to watch and contribute with your valuable comment. The video is in Turkish but auto translate makes good job, I checked it for you. Cheers 🙋🏻

Is that tripod really only around $30? Nice to see an excellent photographer using sensible gear.

@SimonBoothPhotography 4 месяца назад

No, it's the C85 Kingjoy tripod that I have. It's around £400.00

@vivianmcaleavey1084 7 месяцев назад

Enjoyed your video as always. A question about your polarizer. The change you illustrated was SOOO dramatic. I never get that much of a change with my polarizer. Does yours have an ND component in it as well? I also use Kase.

@SimonBoothPhotography 6 месяцев назад

Hi Vivian. My polariser is a standard one from case it doesn’t have a neutral density option. Often, it’s all dependent on the angle of where the light is coming from polarising filters work, particularly well in woodlands when it’s wet.

@vivianmcaleavey1084 6 месяцев назад

Thanks. I'll pay attention to that in the future.
