Rocking the CHEST WADERS for a bit of WATERFALL PHOTOGRAPHY

[@fototripper]

I was going to say how much I loved that reflexion shot but after that outrageous book promo at the end I feel utterly betrayed by your life partner Brian.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

The truth hurts

[@peterfritzphoto]

@@QuietLightPhoto LOL.

[@peterfritzphoto]

@@QuietLightPhoto Gavin just misses you. 😜

[@TimberGeek]

I like the face... The one in the rock.

[@TravelsofRedRover]

Looking good Adam. We enjoyed our day with you. Great video. Thanks for sharing. Shawn and Corinne.

[@kovacsadam7217]

The scene in the end with Brian is golden. Made my day :D

[@RickMentore]

"Now yo talking." Superb images! Water falls photography is my favorite type of imaging making, thus todays video was a special treat for me! Thanks AG.

[@ibp2007]

Thank you Adam.🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷

[@deanpratley125]

Thank you for sharing Adam. I am only into the photography obsession for a little over 6 months, and i am loving it. i take pictures of scenery, action, birds & just about anything I can find. I love what you and Gavin are doing. Once I retire, i will go on some adventures. I loooooove my new hobby. Thanks again!

[@Goalieswede]

That last shot is stunning

[@JohnHPettigrewFujishooter67]

Loved the waterfall images, Thanks for sharing.

[@Mr.HarryPotter]

Uncle Adam: Love the haircut. I was waiting for that for years. You look much better with shorter hair.

[@1young-geezer]

Funny little dig at the end - poor Gavin, lol, we'll miss him. Anyways, for so long I've just loved your before-after transitions on your images. I challenge myself as to both how I'd do it and how you did it, and you always win and surprise me. Love your sense of composition and how you end process the light.

[@mickeystine3100]

you did a great job on the dog wood tress. and the water falls 👍👍👍💕💕

[@Nature_Wild_And_Free]

Love the transitions from raw to edited! Had several favorites! I got a good laugh at the end!! LOLOLOL

[@susanfirth2279]

You could easily spend all day there. So spoilt for choices on compositions. Loved the image at the very end the most but also loved the reflection one as well. All great images though. Haha, nice skit at the end - well played.

[@denisesavage2382]

Hahahahahah! Love the plug at the end. Brilliant. Those couple of images from this little adventure were my favourite. What a great place to explore.

[@jsimes1]

That reflection image is nice! Very trippy! 😁 And that final image with the bird amongst all the streaming water was just wonderful!

[@tjsinva]

Great talking points. 👍🥂

[@J5388T]

Some nice shots from this weeks video Adam!

[@renagoodfriend-leve9443]

That is a lovely unique reflection.Beautiful image

[@brianbeattyphotography]

Nice images Adam. Gotta do what it takes to get in the right spot 👍

[@marshalhedin7538]

dipper in that last image? awesome!! thank you :)

[@thomasphillips5850]

Thanks Adam another great video. Water falls and cascades are great subject matter. I think this is the first time I have seen you use ND filters. Thanks again.

[@brianmckeever5280]

What a spectacular spot, so many terrific options! I love dogwoods too, hard to pass by a nice specimen without taking a few shots! Enjoyed the images, good work sir.

[@scooter5193]

Adam the last shot with the green band of trees at the top of the composition was beautiful. Well done!

[@peterfritzphoto]

Always nice to hang out with you, Adam. Really looking forward to receiving my copy of your book, too. I doubt it’s going to be as good as Gavin’s, but you’re a nice bloke, so there’s that…

[@CalebWeston_dubland]

Love the video! Especially the dogwoods, such a lovely flower. One of my favorite times to visit Yosemite is during the dogwood blooms. The waterfalls were exquisite as always!

[@garyverstick1620]

The dogwood is quite pleasing.

[@srodigital]

Fantastic, love the skit at the end with Brian. That waterfall scene was really affective where it looked like the water was going upwards, I had to look a couple of times to make sure my eyes hadn't lost the plot. Thanks Adam.

[@lylestavast7652]

Nice haircut ! goes well with that proper baseball cap :) Love dogwoods - the rest of my siblings/ family was from BC and they have this decoration fetish covered with them. lol

[@TAdams-hx9lk]

So appreciate you taking the time to explain how you are interpreting the scene in front of you and your approach to capturing it. Teaching with clarity and engaging both our left (technical) and right (emotional) brain functions to create remarkable images. Many thanks.

[@karynhonor5046]

omgosh I was laughing my butt off at the end.. well done! Loved the waterfall photos as well. I am sorely going to miss the banter between the two of you

[@joncothranphotography9375]

Great images Adam! Love the hair cut!

[@juanitakelly3082]

Loved both the dogwood and falls photos and how you explained your different approaches on them. I've been hoping to see you at Nymph Falls since I was there a few years ago. Would love to go back with my AGI eyes (Adam Gibbs Influenced) to take more than simple snapshots like I did at the time! Great cameo Brian!

[@garthkipping2755]

Great little dig at the end. 👍🏻

[@rbeaubien7868]

Great pictures and walk through on the compositions. My favorites were the reflection and the wide cascade at the end.

[@davemenard5089]

Sad to see Gavin go by the wayside. Thank You for the most amazing video Mr Gibbs

[@599miata]

Great photos, Adam.

[@glorycapture3066]

Loved this video,Adam. The dogwoods and the river falls are what I am blessed with having near my home. I have at least 17 dogwoods in my backyard. I get discouraged at times that I don't have access to many of the things that you are able to photograph. This video is quite encouraging

[@andyb_23]

The shots toward the end were probably my favourite, after the dogwood flowers. Shame about the deadfall in a couple of them forcing such a tight crop, but that’s nature for you. Love your work Adam.

[@SD_Alias]

11:40 Better tell your friend to tighten his belt fast. I was fishing on the Baltic Sea and stood far out in my waders. A wave knocked me over and so much water got in my pants that I could hardly stand up again. It was really a problem to get back on my feet and it was very difficult to get the 100 meters back to shore. There were definitely 20-30l of water in the pants. Since then I always wear a tight belt around my belly when being in water with my waders. Beautiful pictures as usual!

[@amalieemmynoether992]

Amazing images❤️📷 Flowers: very pretty❤️. I like the slightly mottled background from the DOF you achieved. Reflections waterfall: ...wow😍 Other waterfalls: ...also great ❤️ Ending: awesome 🤣

[@colincoleman1907]

Stunning images

[@gayleruble6529]

Really enjoyed this weeks “adventure”. The comp with the reflection was really intriguing!

[@doncason6108]

Nicely done. Thanks for another great one.

[@annetivendale8616]

Outstanding images Adam! I so love your style of photography 💙

[@augie5119]

the two last photos are real nice, although i did like the sky and the round shape the trees made in the last one. great video.

[@stuartpoole1697]

Loving the face you can see in that solitary rock 👍🏻

[@johncarnahan4067]

Absolutely fantastic video Adam thank you for sharing it all photos were fantastic especially the one with the reflection of the waterfall and the first ones of the flowers turned out beautiful

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thanks 👍

[@charliepackard5418]

An excellent vlog. Such interesting details and wonderful creative compositions. The dogwood flowers are a pure delight. I find the Fuji 80mm macro so good for my close up photography.

[@FrankSchulenburg]

Great video. In particular, I like the music you picked. It goes well with the waterfalls. All the best!

[@elusivelens1744]

Adam, I enjoy the variety of images you find: the waterfalls, the trees, or the flowers. And honestly, by now, having seen every video on your channel, it’s almost like a TV series, you just become fond of a certain character of the show, and that’s what keeps you coming back. Thank you, sir. Will also say, that it’s nice to see you pairing up with other photographers. Brings that comradery to the videos.

[@nickshepherd8377]

Very enjoyable video…as always. Thank you.

[@pattymattes7124]

Another set of amazing images! I think I need to go out and find some waterfalls/cascades. I love the ending. Don't know if Gavin does but I love the ending, lol.

[@blivieriphoto]

What a great location! Love the dogwoods. Saw a bunch those trees in the Smoky Mountains. Of course I didn't get up close 🙄. That reflection falls shot was beautiful ☺️. Thanks for video!

[@sebastianberes]

Great episode thank you! :) Brian is upping his acting game :)

[@stevesomers7366]

Really enjoy the Antarctica book and print, Adam! Your work on these cascades gives me inspiration to revisit some library shots to see whether I can edit them from a perspective similar to yours. Keep up the great work!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Great thanks Steve for grabbing a copy

[@djjurky]

Fantastic photos and that ending was priceless :D

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Many thanks!

[@jennifercrouse]

The potholes are fascinating! Thanks for sharing! I got my print of the iceberg in the mist framed yesterday - it looks wonderful! I love the Antarctica pictures - I was so excited to see pictures that weren't included in the videos, made me feel like I was getting something special because now only those people savvy enough to buy the Zine get to see these!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Thank you for picking up a print and book Jennifer!

[@andy_an_outdoors_guy]

I enjoyed the video -- and the "wait for it moment" haha

[@JohnDrummondPhoto]

I love that reflecting cascade image at 10:25. Do you see a face in the outcropping boulder? I do.

[@joannatauriel8715]

Thank you for another video, ending was really funny 😃😃.

[@FloridaPete1948]

Love this type of photography Adam. I took many photos like this along McDonald Creek and Avalanche Creek in late fall and winter when the creeks were down. @18:00 I see a "dipper"? :)

[@ytubechannel997]

Great shots this week Adam!

[@cmichaelhaugh8517]

What a “target rich” environment you live in! Very good episode, especially the instruction accompanying the dogwood shots.

[@chuckhaaser884]

The last photo was my favorite but would have been over the top spectacular if you could have placed Amanda on the rocks in the center wearing her yellow rain slicker.

[@amyverhague1491]

We love the ending! Can't wait to see the response to that! 😂

[@davebenson1504]

nice contrast with the gray background... I have considered hip waders several times, but figure I would forget to pack them the day I want them and then have them on the dry days... like in your review a year or more ago on boots... do you have a preference for design/fit... and again, such beautiful background music.... Thanks for the share... love the ending too....

[@PaulEvans]

Another great vlog again Adam. Really interested in how you find the details within the “vista” Currently trying myself to do and get better at this skill. Keep smiling. P.

[@aureliomarsili3902]

Congratulations, a really nice video !!! I really liked the first composition with flowers, simple but perfect in its simplicity !!! The photos with the waterfalls are all at the top, hard to say which is the best ... for some mysterious reason, the one that I find a little less successful is the second one, the one that looks like an optical illusion, I don't know why but I find it a a little "disturbing" to watch ... Furthermore, in my small way, it also happened to me to position myself to make some macro flowers, and punctually the breeze arrives that a moment before there wasn't ... well ... Thanks Adam for this new video !!! P.s. : this video leaks all over the place !!! P.s. 2: the final scene with the excellent Bri, does it mean that if I buy Gavin's book I will find yours on Antartica for free?!?!?!

[@georgemason2472]

Loved the DOF on the dogwood trees. Just enough detail to tell they were leaves but enough separation to not compete. Loved the way you composed multiple shots from those falls. Brian gets an A+

[@MarkRomine]

Loved the dogwood shots! Where those just two images focused stacked? Thanks for sharing!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Yes two images

[@pmc7105]

Did you take a video clip of the "optical illusion" of the water flowing in two different directions due to the reflection? Would be a neat clip.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

No I didnt

[@nevillewatkins4997]

Great location Adam. So much of interest. I think Gavin is going to take umbrage at that last scene though. :-)

[@MariahInMinneapolis]

Lol omg the end!

[@obanquet]

For the focus stacked dogwoods and to blur the background even more, could you take a slightly out of focus image and blend the focus-stacked dogwoods on top in Photoshop?

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Possibly

[@gruagach1]

I really liked the reflection shot with the rock. To my eye the rock looked like a face gazing down into the pool stoating stuff.

[@keithsandercock1412]

For the waterfalls .... I preferred the slightly warmed up, post processed versions. Pool reflection outstanding.

[@Heidelsheim11]

Another enjoyable video.

[@robertnystrom289]

Hi! I had to peak at the Dogwood through my fingers cupped around my eyes- not because the composition was horrid, but because I'm brutally allergic to Dogwood! Just a glimpse makes me want to run and hide. In a massive save, the mirrored water did it for me- nice shot all around! And speaking of a trip- I received your zine and hat. I put on the hat, made a cup of tea, and spent a good part of the afternoon in Antartica. Those Adelie Penguin shots are screaming for captions. If Brian had only put on the hat...

[@randyohara1311]

I see you add all the camera info..Could you possibly add the aspect ratio as well?

[@cara1067]

Excellent video, hughly informative . The reflection shot was good but as the rock resembled a face , somewhat disturbing. Keep up the e cellemt work.

[@wudl83]

Carl Mahoney. A rather brutal outet of a garnison in Massachusetts. Ever heard of his headset?

[@IKEMENOsakaman]

Beautiful images! That looks like a great location with plenty of compositions. Quick question; I use the Shimoda Explore, do you think the Action is worth upgrading to? Thanks in advance.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

No, the explore is a great pack unless you need a larger bag

[@moldovandan6066]

Why do you like f/16+ND filter instead of f/22 or f/26 without filter?

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Less chance of Diffraction

[@maryl1833]

Adam, are you wanting to use the 70-200 on the Nikon simply because you don’t have a lens like that for the Fuji, or is there another reason?

[@QuietLightPhoto]

70-200 focuses much closer than the medium format lenses

[@maryl1833]

Ah, thank you!

[@deroux]

Great photos Adam. It must be nice not to have that guy Gavin Wisecracker around getting in all the shots.

[@Sun-gd3mg]

ha ha, Brian, what r u doing?

[@mikebartow9415]

Do you ever have concerns when your tripod is in a flowing river that it may cause some camera vibration?

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Yes sometimes, so it's best to try and avoid the flow and prop it up on rocks or something

[@lylestavast7652]

nice edit at 10:20 .... 16:10 as well... but the ending book view... sting !

[@georgefrench1907]

👍

[@guykerr8111]

Soooooo, one take away from this video is always carry ALL your camera gear just in case:):):):) Thanks.

[@chrisroot7182]

Oooh, I'm first to comment. Adam, can you put aside a copy of Antarctica for me? I'm in the middle of a move so I don't want to order now since I'm not sure which address to use depending on when it ships! ;-)

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Sure thing, lots here.

[@billjohnstonjr.1037]

First haircut in a century?

Bei uns ist jene Blüte ein Asiatischer Blüten-Hartriegel (Cornus kousa ) ! Es können schöne große Bäume werden. Verstehe leider kein englisch, es wird mir zu viel erzählt im Video. Ich würde mich niemals rückwärts vor mein Stativ/Kamera stellen!

Vielen Dank, dass Sie einen Kommentar hinterlassen haben. Der Hartriegel ist eine Provinzblume von British Columbia.
