Photographing in the rain is amazing. If you embrace it then you can get some amazing results. In this video I visit an amazing woodland and show how you can use the rain and saturated colours to get some great photos.

Important top tip : KEEPING LENS CLEAN - I usually use a lens hood and then when inevitably get rain on lens ensure your lenses have been cleaned with alcohol wipes prior to shoot and then use grease free micro fibre cloth. Ensure you have many clothes as soon as get damp don’t work on lens and smear. Then use alcoholic wipes intermittently. Thanks for watching.

@wendynewing8834 5 лет назад

That was lovely. I don't go out in the rain to take photographs ... but I will do so in future, as I love woodland photography and the pictures you created. Thanks Nigel.

@DaneWithADrone 5 лет назад

Great one Nigel. I will explore photography in the rain more. A newbie in landscape photography so have been a bit afraid of my equipment getting wet. Useful tips! Thanks...

@agreatness 5 лет назад

Won’t the alcohol wipes ruin the protective films of the lens?

@ianburton880 5 лет назад

Good advice about venturing out in the rain, as you know Nigel if we waited for decent weather in the Uk we'd never go out ;-) Although your advice about using a bag cover to protect your camera is good I would never use the one that is protecting the rest of my kit in the bag even if the bag is waterproof. Either carry a spare cover to use or as I do use a Skyeskin Chamois (they are massive). I drape mine over the whole camera and when I'm ready to take a shot I quickly lift the front of the chamois just above the lens element so it's out of the frame of the shot but still affords some degree of protection then take the shot. I find this method saves you having to wipe your lens in readiness for the next shot.

@Dreyno 5 лет назад

Nigel Danson A good big umbrella is the job. Can help prevent lens flare as well if the sun comes out. Strap one to your bag if you don’t want to carry it to a location. Best 20 quid you can spend.

@alexfrederickson1540 5 лет назад

Nigel your enthusiasm for your photography and for nature makes my heart sing, it really does. I am not a landscape photographer but I watch your videos and I’d do one of your workshops just to meet you. You are so much more than a photographer. I love the rain too. The saturation, contrast etc in the rain apply just as well to ICM. Thank you ☺️

@waterman308 5 лет назад

After watching this video i went out today and took pictures in the rain. Excellent idea.

@lefthandedphotographer 5 лет назад

excellent, I think when people start photography they feel they need bright blue skies and sunshine, but as we progress in our photographic journey we realise going out on days like this are much more productive, deep saturated colours, ive had an amazing time in our forests this autumn in Dumfries and Galloway.

@JoDaniels 5 лет назад

Your videos are an “invitation” to go out and enjoy nature, with or without a camera. Your shared photography knowledge contains valuable tips to capture nature in the most simple way and enjoy being out afterwards. That is why your videos are inspiring for me. Have a good Sunday Nigel!

@1spitfirepilot 5 лет назад

Or use a gallon storage or freezer bag with a hole cut in the bottom. Get the ziplock kind. Just as good of a fit, and you already have it in your house. Doesn’t take up much space either.

@RS.Outdoors 5 лет назад

Intersting as always and look forward to your thoughts on the new Nikon. When I am out I take a pack of elasticated shower hair caps as you can get a pack of 3 for pennies and you can get larger size ones ideal for covering your camera and lens.

@pgcknaphill1892 5 лет назад

Lovely - as a word from a botanist... if you can find one a Field Maple (Acer campestre) is one of our glorious hedgerow trees and there are ancient remnants of their woodland scattered in the Peaks.

@johnbianchi6430 5 лет назад

You could have ended the video at the moss covered wall in the opening sequence. What a beautiful location. I don't think it's a coincidence that there are so many landscape videographers in the UK when you consider you just have to walk out your front door to get a wonderful shot. I look forward to every one of your videos. Keep the great work coming.

maybe a talk on shooting in bright light, most are not used to that , camera care keeping gear away from cold AC in a humid climate, tropical rain forest - you would love getting wet there - Take a trip to Java , do landscape around the Toba caldera, struggle with focus on an orangutan in the trees in the rain - got to be the most challenging!

listening to you and watching the scene at 6:30, I just can't comprehend. Absolute knockout scenery and location. Where I am in Australia, we had 39.6 deg C in the shade of our entertainment area today and even now at 2143hrs it is still 27 deg C. You don't worry about rain on your Nikon. I'm paranoid about moisture on my D750.

@steveloudon7491 5 лет назад

Please don't take me wrong but I much prefer your "small landscapes" such as these in the woods. There's nothing wrong with the wide vistas but I like the closeness of woodland images. I guess it's that I can reach out and touch the tree or rock but I can't feel the glacier or mountain miles away. Keep it up
