2017 TOP TEN FAVOURITE IMAGES | Landscape Photography | Western Canada

[@stephaniesabourin3248]

All these photos are gorgeous, but I especially like the one of Seven Veils. The way the light hits the falls and the mist is just exquisite.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thank you, Stephanie!

[@ericpmoss]

That print of the moss-draped trees over your shoulder is really nice.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks, Eric! I really love that image, it's an older print that I printed from a 4x5 transparency several years ago.

[@TheBabydoctoral]

Adam, you really nailed this group of images, they are all spectacular. You mention "luck" a number of times, but the fact that you are out there often, at times in weather that would make others stay home, suggests something much more than "luck" in the creation of these photographs. I hope that your 2018 is as productive as 2017 was. Please keep up the marvelous work and keep sharing with all of us. Many thanks.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thank you, Alan! I guess the more you put yourself out there the luckier you become. I must admit I was out shooting a lot this year, all the best for 2018

[@sirkov3887]

I had some tears in my eyes just seeing that one on Talon Lodge at 11:50. Thank you for that fantastic start in 2018.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks, Sirkov!

[@alexgimagery]

Impressive work there, obviously I am 3 years late to the show. The tree on the rock with the smeared water is truly a magical image.

[@debbydhill]

My favorite is still the trees @ The Talon. So beautiful! Thoughtful and mesmerizing, for me anyway. The detail....stunning!

[@06a09]

that introduction was just something else. wow!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks, Joe!

[@cathyann1601]

You certainly had a fruitful year. These photos are magical!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

I think I can agree with you, haha. Thank you, Cathy Ann!

[@michaelkuehnlein8556]

Brilliant Sir. Should get an award for this (just for you)

[@obanquet]

Thanks for the photo adventures during 2017, which I thoroughly enjoyed! Best wishes to you and yours throughout 2018 and beyond.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thank you skfish! All the best for 2018

[@jnrickards]

My favorite is the summit of the rampart because of the contrasting texture of the soft clouds against the hard rocks.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks, Julian!

[@MrFreakwent]

Absolutely breathtaking. Many folks will have a lifetime pass and never capture such fantastic images !

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thank you MrFreakwent!

[@jenslundinbyh8845]

Wow... Your images are really out of this world. Amazingly beautiful.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thank you, Jens!

[@turnerhunt9122]

I loved this video. I rarely engage in the comment section on KZbin but I just had to for this video. Great work and keep up these videos, real joy to watch.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thank you, Dirdy!

[@markfisher7787]

Another great video , was lucky enough to travel down Vancouver island a couple of years ago and watching this is definitely pushing me to go back it really is a remarkable place. Thanks.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Cheers, Mark!

[@simonmiles1972]

Great video and wonderful images. Triple Falls and Golden Ears my favourites. Thanks for sharing.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thank you, Simon!

[@brandonwells8300]

What a productive year it has been for you. Some wonderful images it was good to see again. All the best for the new year.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks, Brandon! All the best for 2018 to you also.

[@poppyspix4444]

Been following your work the past couple of months - very nice. As our realtors say "location, location location". Thanks for sharing!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks, Poppy!

[@forrestproductions]

I vote this my favorite vlog of 2017! In a world where photography has too often become a post processing technology competition, your images stand out for such intelligent and beautiful artistic composition. The subtle details of the compositions and the use of "quiet light" are so distinguishable it is a trademark of your work. I have learned a lot watching your vlogs this year. I am looking forward to some new winter vlogs. We are in a deep freeze here as well with below zero temperatures. It's just too cold to go to the mountains for any extended hike, but the sea smoke at the coast has been fantastic to photograph.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks so much, Gary! Yes, it is hard to get motivated when the wind is howling and the temps are low, but at the same time some of the best images can be made in the worst of conditions, just make sure you wrap up warm, lol. All the best for 2018.

[@penghoeteoh3418]

Watching your video has put me in a tranquil state and harmonise my feeling. Really lost for words. Happy new year to you, Adam.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Happy New Year, Peng!

[@bobwollenberg9160]

Both photographs and video footage is incredible. Looking forward to your work next year

[@rasesh4u]

Great work Adam. I love your videos and all the shots you took. Brilliant. Keep it up.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thank you, Rasesh!

[@anja5758]

Your channel is a constant inspiration. Wonderful images, cinematography, music and valuable tips! And you helped me so many times to survive in the office in front of the computer... ;) thank you and happy new year!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks, Andrzej! just don't get caught daydreaming, haha. All the best for 2018

[@NicklasHolmqvist]

You have given us stunning footages with the drone and stills this year. I am looking forward to 2018, in about 29min ;) Happy new year! :)

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Happy New Year, Nicklas!

[@diannewillingham1466]

Amazing content and just love your drone footage.......Brilliant Images

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thank you, Dianne!

[@pthompson108]

Happy new year Adam. I only discovered your artwork about a month ago and I have to say that I'm just stunned. The mood you create for the viewer is so relaxing and peaceful, that I've taken to watching it just before bed. Thanks again mate, looking forward to more gems in the new year.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thank you pthompson! Wishing you a great 2018!

[@bbrown6057]

Your vlogs are the best thought out and produced that I watch! From the drone work, the cinematography work, music choices and your style of explaining your shots is second to none. I hope to meet up someday and shoot with you. Keep up the GREAT work and Happy New Year. BTW, your images are outstanding!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks ever so much bbrown! Happy new year.

[@garthjes]

So glad a friend linked me to your channel, I've enjoyed following your adventures and the amazing images that resulted. And your production quality.. top notch! Looking forward to your 2018 vlogs! All the best in the New Year.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks, Garth! Happy New Year!

[@PeteBullmore]

Adam, wish you a great 2018! Have thoroughly enjoyed your images, video and delivery. Keep them coming please!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks, Pete! Happy New Year!

[@alexberg2980]

Such a great video and display of astonishing imagery. The triple falls shot was a mind bender ... until I watched the triple Falls video - after I watched this - I though the “small” branch that is framing the shot was actually signifffficantly bigger. Amazing how wide angle vantage points can change perspective. Such a beautiful shot. Really enjoying your work, Adam.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thank you, Alex! It is astonishing how much a wide angle lens can distort and enlarge an object in relation to its proximity to the front of the lens.

[@zschnepf77]

Your best video yet IMO. Excellent work, and incredible photography Adam!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Zack! Thanks for watching! Yeah 2017 was a good year I think.

[@marulandscapes]

Hi Adam, I just wanted to wish you a happy New Year and thank you for the motivation and inspiration. When I look at your images I am struck by the authenticity and creativity of the work. It's true photography. In a world of bells and whistles, you remind me again and again of the soul of photography. All the best in 2018.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Happy New Year, Jeremy! thanks for the kind words, very much appreciated

[@martincutrone5816]

Beautiful scenery, and beautifully captured! Enjoyed watching. My workshop budget is shot this year, maybe next...

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thank you, Martin!

[@madshendriksen1795]

Really great images and nicely presented. Thanks for posting and keep up this fantastic work

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thank you, Mads!

[@DuaneNeufeld]

Great channel Adam, looking forward to see what comes in 2018!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Cheers, Duane! All the best for 2018!

[@stephenhartphotography5855]

Adam it's very inspirational to see your photography of 2017. Can't wait to see what the new year will bring. Thanks sharing.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks, Stephen!

[@jeppemichaeljensen2684]

The best top 10 I have seen for 2017 !

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks, Jeppe!

[@edwardw.1974]

ADAM, PERFECT WORKS! I LIKE THEM SO MUCH.

[@garyclayton4652]

Adam. So we can clearly see 2017 was an amazing year for you. Very well done.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

I think it was, lol. Cheers, Gary!

[@ashvarma2486]

Just discovered your work Adam and love your videos and your images. Just subscribed and looking forward to more great vlogs and images from you.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Awesome, thanks, Ash!

[@Thom_S]

Beautiful collection of photos Adam. I am a recent subscriber of your channel and I look forward to every video you post. Really nice work.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thank you, Tom!

[@nailsenkal58]

Watched three of your videos. Loved them all... and Top Ten made it to the top. Thank you.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Great, thanks!

[@nathanddebjogia3286]

whoaaa amazing Images!! All the best for 2018 and looking forward to more excellent content. thanks for sharing and taking the time to make these inspirational vlogs

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks, Nath and Deb! All the best for 2018 for you also.

[@dagolenordhaug1278]

Now, that is one impressive collection of images! Impossible to pick a favourite among the ten, they are all superb. Think I better sell my cameras and take up knitting or something....

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Cheers, Dag! I dunno if you need to take up knitting just yet, you have a very impressive body of work. Haha, perhaps croche! haha

[@trevorhughes7399]

I have thoroughly enjoyed watching your videos Adam and the beautiful images. Canada is a wonderful country and your photos capture its landscape so very well. All the very best for 2018.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thank you, Trevor! Happy New Year!

[@dougvarvil6435]

Adam - I just happened across your vlogs and have marathoned as many as I could find. They are inspiring to me as a avid amateur photographer. I find it very helpful when you discuss your thinking while composing your photos (which, by the way, are stunning). Your videos are very personal and you make the viewer feel we are right there with you on your treks. Hopefully ones of these days I will join you in one of your Photos workshops. I live in Florida so I think I would have to get some different clothing for the climates you frequent for your photo treks. Shorts and T-shirt’s probably won’t do the job. Please keep the videos coming. I need the continued inspiration.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks, Doug! Shorts and tee shirts are good in the summer, although you might get eaten alive by mosquitoes. See Florida and Canada are not much different, haha.

[@pravopastabude5954]

I really enjoy watching your videos from beautiful Canada Adam. Comparing to others, with the same content, only in your videos I have a real feeling/wish of being there at that place and time! Great job! I wish you a successful 2018 year.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Good to hear, thanks, Ermedin! All the best to you also.

[@craigrobson1032]

Hi Adam first watch of your videos, excellent images !

[@tonyb2760]

Fantastic collection of images. Thanks for sharing and happy new year

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Happy New Year, Tony!

[@peterlouisse6361]

Great selection of photos look forward for 2018

[@RichardLefroy]

A nice selection Adam! I think my favourite MIGHT be the snow-covered trees from Mt Seymour falling off in to the blackness of the valley below. Congrats on hitting 3k subs... it seems like not that long ago you were just hitting 1000. And all the best for 2018! :) Looking forward to seeing more from you.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Cheers, Richard! Yeah, I think it was the Seymour video that was a hit to get things moving, lucked out with some great conditions. All the best for 2018 Richard!

[@darrenbooker9438]

Some fantastic images Adam, well done, love your work. Happy new year!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Happy New Year, Darren!

[@thomaspopple2291]

Stunning captures. Thank you for sharing.

[@ninacleven7889]

Stunning images and I particularly liked your lead-up and comments on each photo. Well done.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thank you, Nina!

[@obayedh]

All those images are so beautiful! Love the all. Thanks much for sharing Adam. Wish you a very Happy New Year in 2018! Greetings from Victoria, Vancouver Island :)

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Happy New Year, Obayed! Victoria! not a bad place to live ;-)

[@landscapesbyzalmanwainhaus9635]

Wow, Adam. What a fantastic collections of images, and as you said, it was inspiring to hear the backstory to each of them. Thanks for sharing, and looking forward to seeing your work in the coming year!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks ever so much, Happy New Year!

[@subjectifobjectif]

Beautiful pics & videos, really inspiring. Great work!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks, Scott!

[@martincutrone5816]

Impressive catalog of images from last year! Certainly shows the effort you put in to achieve these images, and the skillful video work as well.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thank you, Martin!

[@stevewrigley]

Beautiful set of images Adam.. Only recently discovered your channel & loving the content you share.. Best wishes for 2018.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Great to hear, thanks, Steve!

[@tomduncan3547]

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Cheers, Frank! Happy New Year!

[@LarryManiccia]

Happy New Year to you as well Adam! Very productive 2017 you had; loved your top 10 images. Your videos and photography are top notch. Keep up the good work and I look forward to your adventures in 2018.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks, Larry!

[@eliebulka2414]

I just recently discovered you and doing a fair amount of following you around now :j Your work is superb and your free and generous sharing of your favorite locations is of great value to me, and pushes me hard to come and explore that part of your world. Thank you sincerely Adam!

[@kevins8575]

Gorgeous. I recently visited BC for the first time. This really makes me want to go back.

[@ingimundurgesturaxelsson802]

Stunning photos. Looking forward to what you bring us in 2018. Happy new year from Iceland.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thank you, Ingimundur!

[@ianbrown704]

OMG simply stunning images that you must be very proud of, these type of images don't just happen they are made by talent and an eye for art which you have in abundance - thanks for sharing

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks, Ian!

[@jamesmarko1787]

Those are some beautiful pictures Adam! You have a good eye and I love how you process your images. I'm Glad I discovered your channel.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks, James!

[@luisfelipegope]

Gosh, this video goes to show that you are an amazing photographer and videographer and that canada is a unbelivable place, so good! Happy 2018!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thank you, Luis!

[@chrisroot7182]

Thanks so much for putting these together. Amazing images and adventures. All the best in 2018 and looking forward to whats next! Cheers!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

All the best to you also, Chris!

[@williamdesevo2089]

Just subscribed. Awesome images, nice production values on the vlog -- best line to me living in the south "its zero not too bad" made me LOL.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

That's 0 celsius, haha

[@williamdesevo2089]

Well, that makes more sense! I saw all those snow shots in the mountain and just leaped to a false fahrenheit conclusion. I should have known if I thought about a little further.

[@patrickboyarski7414]

WOW! I discovered your channel a couple of months ago so this was a terrific overview of your work in 2017. Loved each and every one of your top ten images. Your drone and time lapse sequences are also beautifully done, as is your music selection. So thank you, Adam. Happy New Year to you.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Happy New Year, Patrick!

[@jamesjohnston6765]

Like Michael said, I've mentioned it before but I will say it again, the videos and editing add so much to your videos. The brilliant images are a testament to your eye for the light and composition. Happy New Year Sir! Keep them coming.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Happy New Year, James! very much appreciate your kind words.

[@margrab9139]

Wonderful selection of images Adam. Happy New Tear

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Happy New Year, Mar!

[@andy1753]

Excellent, stunning, wonderful, amazing, awesome, can't think of any more adjectives. Happy new year to you, I can't wait to see what you produce in 2018.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Cheers, Andy! Happy New Year!

[@rskura]

Happy New Year Adam! I thoroughly enjoyed revisiting your favorite images from 2017 - they are among my favorites as well. I want to thank you again for sharing your work in 2017. Each video you've made this year has been inspiring and has quickly made you my favorite KZbin channel to watch. I really look forward to watching each and every video you make and I have revisited many of them to enjoy them over and over again. Please continue to provide more amazing content in 2018. I know that many appreciate what you are doing and I think you are getting better with each vlog you publish. I am also going to try to fit in a workshop with you at some point. I am in Edmonton, so Jasper is looking very good to me. The only problem is the timing, since I am planning a trip to Zion in September. If it doesn't work out for me in September, I will be watching to see what other workshops you offer. Thanks again, and keep up the excellent work in 2018!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks so much! I guess Zion is looking good considering how cold it is in Edmonton. Eventually, I might offer a few more workshops than the three I currently have. I'll be sure to keep you updated as time goes on. Happy New Year!

[@SanJuanMountainBob]

Adam, you are not only a great photographer, but an accomplished filmmaker. I've really enjoyed your videos since I found your channel. Keep up the good work in 2018. I'm looking forward to more! Happy New Year.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Great to hear, thank you, Bob! All the best for 2018

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Finally got around to watch this one Adam! Those photos are absolutely sublime! :)

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thank you, Mads! That's the only problem with all of these photography vlogs on KZbin, finding the time to watch them all, haha. I've been really enjoying your location vlogs, super interesting. All the best.

[@jongrall]

Stunning images. I’d feel pretty chuffed to create photographs that good in a 5 year period, let alone a single year! Just found your channel, and really enjoying it so far.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Great! thanks, Jon!

[@edmontonian5270]

I remember Christmas day was -30 something. We tried to play a little hockey in the driveway with my boys and we lasted about 20 minutes! Great video Adam! I think Mt Seymore was my fav.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

20 mins are pretty good, lol.

[@tysanborn554]

Wonderful channel Adam... I look forward to every new video and each photo adventure you take your subscribers on! Hopefully 2018 will continue to inspire, Happy New year fellow landscape photographers!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks, Tyler! wishing you an awesome 2018 of shooting

[@GlenDomulevicz]

A fitting end to this year's KZbin vlogs. Beautifully done. The video footage certainly added to the presentation of your thoughts about images and the images themselves. Impressive. The most unexpected and surprising image, actually, a moment in a video portion, was you walking across a scene with a double backpack!!! One on top of another. How was that possibly without falling backwards? 😊. Happy New Year

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks once again for your support, Glen! The pack that was strapped on to the back was at that time my new camera bag, the Mammut Trion Pro. I had purchased the pack on the way to the Rockies and figured the trip would be a good one to try the bag out. Yeah, it would have been very uncomfortable to have both packs loaded, haha.

[@TheFuturetraders]

Excellent selection, some real stunners in there. Happy New Year mate and I hope 2018 is a peaceful, healthy and happy one for you both. Thoroughly enjoyed your vlogs this year.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Happy New Year, Alister! Perhaps I have found my calling, haha. Hope you guys are doing well. Looks like Karin and I will be heading to the UK in the spring, taking my dad over to visit his brother. Not sure if I'll make it up your way but I'll certainly try, if you're around that is, hah. Take care Alister, say hi to Allie for me.

[@photocreativity]

Beautiful presentation, Adam. Great images. I wish you a happy and blessed 2018.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Happy New Year, Ivo!

[@H108-q9k]

Thanks for the video-a real feast of light and beauty of nature! Happy New Year! -Hannu

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Happy New Year, Hannu!

[@bobcat6653]

Happy New Year to you! I really, really do enjoy your videos and your photography, your style is just right for me, you seem genuinely yourself, even on cam. I have read about the tours that you offer and they are bucket list things in my mind, I would just love to go along on one. The circulation in my legs is reduced and I plan to have that corrected surgically this year, but until I do I don't feel confident I can go to the spectacular places that you go to. I hope to be joining you on one soon! Thanks so much for sharing your travels and yourself with us all!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thank you, bobcat! Glad to hear that you're enjoying the videos. Wishing you a wonderful 2018 and hopefully some fresh legs to get you around to some cool spots to photograph. All the best!

[@blazejkrzyzanek]

Wow! so inspiring and amazing photos!

[@mibreit-photo]

I've said it under your last video and I have to say it again, those intros are mesmerizing, I can't even blink while they are running :-) And what a great selection of photos. Those two from Mt. Seymoure are my faves, just wow. I wish you luck with the snow for your next vlog. And happy new year to you too!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks ever so much Michael! wishing a great new year of shooting and vlogging ;-)

[@CelsoMollo]

Well done, beautiful images and Happy New Year.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks, David! All the best for 2018!

[@mbrady005]

Happy New Year Adam. Thanks for an interesting and enjoyable 2017.

[@thevalleywalker]

Happy New Year Adam.... fabulous collection of images as expected. So glad to see one of the images you chose was one that blew me away - your last trip to Mt Seymour with the "tree figures" Good adventures for 2018.

[@edstam5336]

What a great set of pictures you are showing here Adam. Thanks for sharing them, i love it! I recently found your channel and almost have seen all your vlogs. I love your style with the drone footage in it, great work. Happy new Year from Holland or The Netherlands whatever you call it and hopefully lots of new vlogs from you.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Haha, so what's the official name or is it okay to use both? Thanks, Ed! Wishing you the best for 2018

[@paulbowen6600]

Thanks for sharing, some fantastic images there, looking forward to seeing more from you in 2018, Happy New Year!

Just found your channel Adam, very nice videos and it didn’t took me a minute to hit the subscribe button. I also followed you on instagram and flickr. Keep up the good work and thanks for inspiring us.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Good to hear, thank you, Edsel!

[@rafelcabotmesquida8661]

What an amazing year of adventures and wonderful images, Adam! Although it is very difficult to pick an absolute winner, I would personally go for the Triple Falls image, followed very closely by the tree image at Talus Lodge. Absolutely beautiful, both of them. On top of that, I'd dare to say that it's difficult to find better drone footage on youtube. Please keep bringing us such top quality videos in 2018. Wishing you all the very best for the new year!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks, Rafel! Wishing the best for 2018.

[@aprilurquhart9690]

Happy New Year from the UK. Thank you for sharing your top 10 images, they are all amazing and some are positively ethereal. Please post more in 2018, I can't wait for the next video.

Magical images.

[@PatriciaDavidsonPhotography]

Excellent presentation of your favorite images Adam! Incredibly gorgeous images and cinematography. You have one of the most inspiring channels. Looking forward to seeing more in 2018. Happy New Year! 🎊

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thank you, Patricia! I just noticed that you have "finally" haha posted another video, I'll have to take a look and leave my honest opinion, lol. Wishing you a great 2018.

[@PatriciaDavidsonPhotography]

Hah hah, yes, I did "finally" post! Nothing as stunning as yours though. Happy New Year!

[@charlenenagel7962]

Happy New Year Adam! This was delightful! Ever since discovering your channel recently, I have been binge watching as time allows. It was wonderful to see many of my favourite images appearing here today. Your videos are superb too! So awe-inspiring! All the best to you in 2018!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Happy New Year, Charlene!
