My Book Should Be Yours: www.fototripper.com/chasing-a...
Would you go into the woods tonight? How about in foggy bear country with scary-looking trees and even scarier abandoned vehicles on the quiet backroads of Vancouver Island?
The last thing you'd want to do is take a wrong turn...
This ridiculous landscape photography adventure features two foggy sunrises and one lovely sunset with some utterly stunning telephoto views that will blow your mind.
Not only do I spoil you with lots of free landscape photography tutorials, but you also get a double dose of ''a face like a...'' which, if we're honest, is the only reason you bother watching!
Does Uncle Grumpy really need to check himself and will he ever do that reading of 'Chasing Awe With Gavin Hardcastle'? Why is his bum wet and will we make it back before the tide cuts us off?
Thanks for watching

Sky replacement software is brilliant for Real Estate photography, but not something I’m personally keen on for landscape pics. I’m not sure the next Chasing Awe by Gavin Hardcastle will have as much awe if there were pics included with that method.

When Gavin, Adam, Thomas or Nick are posting anything, I ''Like'' it first and then I watch. You guys ROCK!

Those back lit forest photos around the 8 minute mark in the video have to be some of your most beautiful. Heaven on earth.

Sky replacement is a no from me, part of the journey is being there for the right conditions... No light, no clouds, go back and get the shot another time. 🙂

Uncle Grumpy's back! The Odd Couple are back together. Rejoice!

Those backlit fog photos, even better than the pano... Geez, i bet you guys were excited, catching those circumstances. Magical

@ianhamer4294 3 года назад

40 mins of mirth, farts and a bit of photography, there's no beating that. Gav at his best.

@M.Campbell 3 года назад

That first photo of the mountains and small islands is my favorite. Amazing!

@neildethridge9455 3 года назад

Just realised watched y’a. Now for 2 1/2 years , wow what a legend you really are thanks for the last couple of years of lighter side of life educational and extremely funny times,, I don’t think people really realise just how much you come into people homes and life’s just through RU-vid, if you ever feeling a bit down or just fancy a quick pick me up go back and watch some of the older ones, , a big thankyou for every moment you’ve shared along the adventures of fototripper. You really are a good person .

Face like an undercooked Fray Bentos Pie lol. My mum used to buy those tinned pies when we were kids. Ha ha. How many of these 'face like a....,' can you think of lol? Love it 👍👍👍😂

@bbark7380 3 года назад

I've been watching your channel now for a few years and I have always really enjoyed the episodes. The photography has been very informative and inspiring, to say the least. But I had to pause the video at 8:32, by far one of the best shots I've seen. I can't believe that was taken from Vancouver Island. I live right next to you near anacortes, state side and that shot looks like something from the Amazon Jungle. Soo cool!

@wimair_at 3 года назад

So sweet, also with the snowy mountainpeaks in the back.

Love the way you revisit places in case the light may somehow become more friendlike. And I am glad you take Adam with. Because everyone needs a friend, no matter how grumpacious

@timshields8720 3 года назад

Its always a pleasure waking up to Gavin hanging out with Sir Grump Alot! My day will be a good one 👍

@Eltargrimm 3 года назад

Since you asked: I still can't bring myself to replace skies. I think it reinforces the idea that "this is what a good photo should look like" and that's what's rubbing me the wrong way. I'm not claiming that my line of reasoning makes perfect sense, just to be clear.

@mgman6000 3 года назад

Good video as usual I dont mind replacing a sky IF it makes the shot better and it's a sky that I took

@jsimes1 3 года назад

I wouldn't mind replacing the sky as long as the new sky was a shot I took. Ideally at the same location with better conditions.

@KrisLuckPhoto 3 года назад

the shot at 8:50 is so gorgeous, one of my favorites from you!

@DarrenJSpoonley 3 года назад

Another epical adventure with the three musketeers !!! That fog was awesome !! Well done my friend !!

@christinaphillips1072 3 года назад

Awesome video. But they're all awesome videos! Amanda is hilarious 🤣 that ostrich impression was spot on 🤪 as as far as you photoshoping in the clouds, nah I don't consider that cheating, its your art, do as you will is what I say, I have done that myself plenty of times when there's been a boring sky. I actually take pictures of pretty skies and clouds that I could possibly use if I had to, so technically even if I have to photoshop the sky its still 100% my picture 😁

@mickbear413 3 года назад

Absolutely amazing images, and a great video. You're so lucky to live in such a beautiful part of the world

@mikemackenzie9064 3 года назад

I love watching your stuff Adam! I have watched them all + bought the book and all bring inspiration with a light humour that i love. Thanks for filming your experiences!

@christocrafford1812 3 года назад

Gavin, your videos are so fun and turns a crap day into a laugh....and your point of view as it come to finding great composition is always worth the watch.... Keep it rolling....

@marieta.s 3 года назад

I have to say I quite enjoy these longer videos of yours. I pass my time with something that I like since I don't really watch tv and it is a subject that literally is my favorite.

@matthitchins4525 3 года назад

Great video and awesome to see Adam back. Can we have a video and Amanda outtakes soon though, that Ostrich impression was spot on 😂😂

@rnavarrete1956 3 года назад

Greetings from Oakland,CA. I’m really enjoying your recent vlogs without the comedy bits. Your natural humor and good nature with Amanda, (and Uncle Grumpy,) and your wonderfully clear explanations of your photographic thinking and process, is terrific. Thanks so much for all the effort you put into these RU-vid videos.

@l63r40s4 3 года назад

I really like your knarly trees in the fog at the end. Very dramatic. Beautiful layers in all your photos and the waves washing over the rocks fantastic. The humour as always fun! Loved it!

@dinsdalephotography 3 года назад

Another fantastic video! Since we're locked down again here in MB, getting out with you lads is one of the few joys in life! Thank you for all you do and taking us with you on your adventures.

entertaining, enlightening & awesome images. Great work Gav !

@msingrey14 3 года назад

Fantastic vlog, as usual. All three of you guys always seem to have so much fun together. The silliness is a given, the beautiful images are expected. However, I wasn't expecting the uncanny Ostrich impression: Amanda and Adam are truly gifted.

@Hirsutechin 3 года назад

That lichen you were likin' wasn't algae either, it was deposited by a greater spotted grumpopotamus suffering the vindaloos and only the incoming tide would clear it - lucky for you. Treat the affected creature with pickled hardboiled eggs and leave in a lonely place for 48 hrs. Crackin' shots at 6:23 and 8:40, btw!

@robertocastro4403 3 года назад

Dude, I didn't even notice the length of the video until someone mention it. I was waiting for this 2nd part of the rendez vous of lord Hardcastle and Grampton the first. It didn't disappointed the high expectations. Really entertaining, funny and informative as always. Thanks for these videos Gavin!

Gavin, wow, 6:05 did it for me. I’ve been looking for a shot like that for myself. A very inspirational shot for me.... I got this nice warm feeling watching it. Thank you for doing what you do. Oh man, I really enjoyed every single photo with a slap of good humor. I think I love you man! Lol

@willnotbetracked8222 3 года назад

Why not get Uncle Grump to photograph your wedding for your next project?🙂 Greg could do the video, Shainblum and Nick could be Page boys and Tom could be chief bridesmaid........should be hilarious....🤭🤣

This is a good time to comment with thanks for your own wonderful music that you include with your videos. Case in point, the lovely melody at the 8:50 mark, as you show us the trees-in-fog photograph. Thanks for all of your skills.

I really needed to do a chore before dinner ... but to hell with the chore. There is a new Fototripper video to watch! Woohoo!

@lightonthelandscape 3 года назад

Great video Gavin. Personally I do think it's cheating to add clouds in the sky (but just a little bit). I've done the same for commercial shots where going back another day isn't an option. However for art shots, I tend not to add stuff to photos. If I did, my wife would give me hell. She doesn't even like it when I exposure blend! Lovely shots as usual.

Couldn't help notice that you were shooting into the sun without the hood, but when you were shooting the fog you had the hood on :D

As is correct.

@andrewherbert9938 3 года назад

One of your best I think , really enjoyed seeing you back with Uncle Grumpy , absolute classic when you asked which bit of your book he liked the most . Oh and yes using Photoshop to replace a sky is cheating , it’s just not cricket you know

@brianmckeever5280 3 года назад

Fun! I love the long format videos. It's funny, while watching last week's video I was cropping off a shot with my fingers I didn't see you try. On this video, you took the composition of the islands which was so close to my finger crop I had to smile. I love your shot of the multi-layers, outstanding. I have an 800mm equiv. I would have loved to point in that direction with that light. As for the sky replacement, I think it works and isn't cheating any more than dodging and burning the subdued way you did it. A bright blue sky without clouds is distracting, so dropping in a few clouds to make the viewer focus on the composition seems fair. Oh, yeah, maybe I've seen one too many "Top Gear" episodes, but any time you need $1K to blow up a caravan, let me know. Good content, thanks!

@fototripper 3 года назад

$1k well spent. Plus $2k shipping.

@AnthonyCrouchPhotography 3 года назад

Its not cheating, its beautiful graphic design... :p lol should put a big moon in there too.. Lol

@AnthonyCrouchPhotography 3 года назад

I was looking at landscape photographers pictures in my area, just loved the waterfall pictures, beautiful light at the top of waterfall, was kind of depressing that i could never catch such light or find a waterfall that lent itself to such a perfect sunrise or sunrise, was seriously discouraged, been trying hard to learn, then i realized that every single waterfall at every single location had this beautiful light... Finding that fine line between photography and graphic art is hard... I have to say when it is presented that far, not enhancing light that is there but truly adding, i hate it when it is presented as photography, versus graphic art, at the very least mentioning what liberties were taken would be the honest thing. Everyone has different lines they draw i guess, enhancing the contrast, color, light that was there to show what you remembered it or what it felt like can sometimes be so unreal unintentionally so what is too far... I struggle with this as a newbie photographer. Maybe i should do a video on that on the channel i started. In either case, having fun.
