Your photography is at another level! This type of instructional, no nonsense video, is exactly the type of educational informative content that helps me grow. Thank you very much Gavin.
Love 'Collapse of An Empire'...and the 'critter' in the ice cave looks like a white fox, or dog, or something (love that shot). I'll stand in for Brent for you sometime, lol. That star trails image is fab.
The images are stunning Gavin and I’m really pleased that your giving us the info of just what your having to to to the raw image, and I’m seeing a ghost wolf in the cave 👍🏽
Thank you for putting this video together. I learned a lot and thoroughly enjoyed it. I would love to see a lot more videos like this from you. In the images of Brent and the Ice Cave...I think the top of that ice column looks like a cure Kitty Cat. Knowing how much you love your cats I'm betting you see the same thing. Thanks again for putting this video together.
I love the "Emerald Pool" image. The structure of branches and ice looks like a dragon who is the guardian of the pool. This image has so much details to discover. The other images are great too, but this is my favourite ;-)
Husky or wolf in the ice. Love all of these. And could not care less that some are composites over different days. It's all your work. That's all that matters.
Thanks Gavin! Some great advice! I've been wondering about the technique on star trails and this vid has completely solved that mystery for me, thank you!
Your vid was, as always, a welcome addition to my preffered content consumption. You'd mentioned some subscribers brought out that they were not seeing notifications. It may be my unique experience, but as a friendly fyi, I find it common not to see notifications immediately on posting of videos. In example, this video didn't shoot me a notification untill 12 hours after its posted time. That's quite a delay in this day. I'll also share a blip I see quite often on any post that begins audio right at the start. The first word or two of the narration is always clipped. It seems on the start of playback, YT takes a brief second before it brings audio up. Again, this may be unique to my experience, but because of it, I feel it is a good practice to begin narration after the first second on the timeline.
This winter has been a struggle. The spring cannot arrive fast enough Gavin!!. It's great to see you got the struggles others do too. Really comforting at this time. I think that photo was a fine fix to get the reflection. Perfectly fine, and necessary to bring out the experience of being there.
I did enjoy this!!! Your images are awesome. The ice stalagmite looks like a puppy dog. About waiting for the freight train to come, a while back I went to our local train station and asked about train schedules. They had the schedules for Amtrak, passenger trains, and the VRE, commuter trains, but nothing for freight trains. I asked the station manager when the freight trains come through. He said, "whenever they feel like it," LOL. Thanks for showing us some tips!!!
A wonderful selection of images on display. I have always loved videos like this, it's really great to hear a deeper meaning an image has to its creator. Always a worthwhile bit of education for us all to learn more and get greater context. Also I saw a dog 🐶 (I hope, or I was having a stroke) 😅 Cheers
Great video! I especially appreciate the location points of focus in the Emerald Pool segment. Sometimes it’s hard to figure out where and why to place focus points for a newbie. ❤❤😊
Thanks Ol Gavin , love those winter images , I give each one of them 100% 👍 . You’re a true inspiration to a person who loves photography and a real help to a beginner like me who has the gear but fall a little short on how to . Keep on smiling Amanda & Gavin Ol Scotty Kansas City
