AMAZING bad weather for landscape photography in Snowdonia

Snowdonia in Northern Wales is perfect for epic landscape photography. If you manage to get some "bad" weather with showers and low clouds you're in luck for creating some spectacular photos. In this episode we'll visit the Lone Tree, The Boat House at Llyn Ogwen, A view towards the mountain Tryfan and I'll tell the story about my hikes to the top of the Glyders. We will start out at Tintern Abbey in Southern Wales. As always the video is full of tips and tricks in regard to composition, light and practical stuff related to photography. In many ways this video could work as a landscape photography tutorial.

[@andykeeble1]

WOW! WOW! WOW! What an awe inspiring vlog Mads! The images, the music, the cinematography and your dialogue combine to make one of the best vlogs I have watched this year......seriously! You actually spilled blood for this one mate! This video contains some of the best images you have ever made, quite brilliant! I wait, with baited breath, for whatever comes next but please take care!🍀👌

[@MadsPeterIversen]

HAha thank you so much Andy! I did spill a bit of blood yeah, but I'll be fine for now as I'm back home in safe little Denmark ;)

[@Realpoweronearth]

yes and leaving plates in the toilet is bad news!!

[@Jacobadk]

I like 2 and 4 the most. number two because the tree is the star of the photo, and the colors adds to the atmosphere. number four because of all the lead in lines, and the different layers of the photo. Nice and dramatic sky.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much for your thoughts Jacob! :)

[@andrewkift6746]

Number 5 for sheer awesomeness. I have walked these amazing mountains so many times over the last 3 decades but seeing them through fresh eyes was a real pleasure.

[@mdumaresq]

#2 is very good because the tree being retained from falling by the left mountain, great work Mads!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a lot Michel! :)

[@JayFunningham]

Taking a handicap and turning it into your style. Love your desire to go beyond the golden hours of perfect sunshine.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you very much, Jordan! Yes I think it's very important. I most often prefer this style over the classic golden hour shots :)

[@CymruRJW]

I am one of the lucky people to live in Wales, and you my friend are a photographer and communicator extraordinaire. Thank you for visiting Snowdonia and sharing your adventures. Bravo !!. You are a true lens poet.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you very much, Ron! That means a lot, such a sweet comment! :)

[@martinsepion]

Number 5 is my favourite. I have climbed Tryfan many times and in all weathers and it is always rewarding. Love the moody sky contrasting with the smooth water of Lyn Ogwen. The foreground stream nicely balances with the dark mountain. All of your photos have a dark foreboding quality which strikes a chord in me. Thank you.

[@tomduncan3547]

Number 4 for me. Love the water and mountains. Also good to see more 100% of you to camera. Shows so much more of what you needed to do to get the epic shots.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Very happy you enjoy the vlog parts :)

[@tysonator5433]

A great video for a number of reasons. Not only is this about photography, but also what natural treasures we have in the UK. The nice touch is Made stating how long it will take to hike, the clothes you will need, footway, first aid all of the things that might be forgotten in a pursuit of getting that epic photo ! Well done Mads

[@LozejNina]

After so many episodes, I'm still surprised how you managed to create such an intense 30 minute video, I haven't checked the time not even once while watching, phew! Great work again :) Number 5 works best for me, all the elements beautifully composed together :)

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much Nina! But really happy the 30min didn't feel boring :) It's also four days of footage put into one ;)

[@jncgamer]

as someone who lives in southern england it is really refreshing seeing this series and an eye opener to all these beautiful locations that are just on my door!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Oh, I'm so happy to hear that! :)

[@jasonmac248]

the image 5 you showed of the waterfall, lake and Tryfan was spectacular. as you said bad weather makes great photos.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks Jason! :)

[@JaypeaFoto]

❤ the first shot. Love the lonely tree, goes to show that can definitely get great shots with crappy weather. The boathouse was super nice. You can see why it’s so popular. Love the mood of the mountain scene. Castle of the winds is so cool, crazy venture to get to though.

[@Louisa93able]

Sophie, Queen of the Wild Winds, seen approaching her castle in the sky!

[@danrooke7372]

Another great episode from the series Mads, a fantastic area I've visited before but I've not visited some of the locations you did here - you must do loads of planning for your trips! Number 5 for me this time, I love the composition and how the shape of the river reflects the shape of the mountains forming an oval shape in the image. Looking forward to the next episode!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a bunch for your thoughts Dan :) I do quite a lot of planning yes :)

[@nathanwyn9854]

I've only recently in the last 6 months started my photography journey, a bit ago subscribed to your channel going through a lot of videos and I find this Gem. only half way through the video and loving it so far. I live about 20 minutes from Snowdonia and watching something so personal and picking up tips along the way has been very enjoyable! Love the vid and also good pronunciations of the places a lot of people find Welsh very difficult! Thank you for doing what you do.

[@philwheelhouse3405]

Superb Mads, strenuous but well worth it and your Tavel companion Sophie is one in a million well done to you both.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a lot Phil! And yes she is! :)

[@ninacleven7889]

Wonderful video, love the dramatic, moody skies. Hard to pick a favorite photo, they were all so nice and each one had a story to tell.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a bunch Nina! :)

[@laurencesillars6068]

Very hard decision as ever. 5 though. Sheer epicness and a real sense as a viewer of being able to walk into that landscape. Incredible mountains and the way you’ve captured the foreground. Amazing!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much Laurence! :)

[@danielbaggenstos7675]

This episode is next level Mads! So inspiring and honest, a joy to watch, many Thanks. To me the images 5 and 6 touched me the most. Color, mood and composition are top notch. Keep up the great work!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank a lot Daniel! MEans a lot :)

[@garybeaumont1373]

Absolutely brilliant!!!! All the pictures are stunning but my vote would go to number 5 as Tryfan is a special place for me, having made many visits and climbed it many times many years ago. I have visited Snowdonia earlier this year and now I realise I need another trip and to wander a little farther from the car park, thank you.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

It's always good to wander further away from the carpark! :)

[@edwardlee1815]

What a journey. Sofie is truly a trooper. Beautiful landscape and images.

[@valk-photography]

Stunning video Mads ! I like picture nr 2 for the isolation of the tree and the dramatic clouds, nr 5 the foreground leading into the lake with the wonderful ambient and of course nr 6 is epic (in your words) and your companion let us experience the scale of it all. Keep up the great work !!!! You're literally a big influence for my photography and travel !!!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you very much Mario! Thanks for your thoughts too and I'm happy I can inspire :)

[@andrewboland8170]

Fantastic film again Mads - 5 all the way for me, just stunning.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much Andrew!

[@lewisnorth1188]

This is easily one of the best photography videos I've ever seen

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you very much Lewis! Means a lot :)

[@tadeusz11000]

Compulsive viewing Mads. He who dares, wins!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a bunch Tad! :)

[@HugoLopesPhotography]

Another brilliant one, Mads!! If I had to choose it would be that lonely tree one. It is so calm and deep I just can't get past to it!!! Congrats man!!!!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a bunch Hugo! Happy you enjoyed :)

[@Matty_the_Tall]

sometimes the best things you bring home are the experiences of being there. However, still stunning photos!! and omg what a video. Image 6 for me: the shear guile you had to expend to even get there.

[@finedecks]

My pick would be # 2. Great composition, strong subject . I like # 5 too. Reminds me when I was Kirkjufell but then the fall of the water towards the right. Funny about the bad weather. Everytime I go on a trip I hope for bad weather when it comes to photography. Of course when I'm done shooting I want beautiful weather LOL

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Haha Clemens yeah that's how think too! Good weather at sunrise, bad weather during day, good weather at sunset and clear weather during night - and then no sleep ;)

[@steveh1273]

Fascinating adventure and story. A bit more than a hike I would say! I have not seen the Glyders in any photo vlogs, glad you made me aware of it. Sophie must be in very good shape, you too! Hats off to you. I don't know why operators such as those at the abbey get so freaked with photographers, especially tripods. Really enjoying your vlogs and experiencing your photographic journey. Oh, good music too,

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much Steve and happy I could show you a new location :) I have no clue either... I don't know why they think photographers are so problematic :P

[@MarkKellyPhotographyUK]

👍 for Sophie, image number 5, moody, atmospheric scene that epitomises Snowdonia and North Wales.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you very much again Mark! Yeah Sophies a sweetheart! Amazing girl :)

[@hywel3143]

It’s great to see you enjoying Snowdonia, which is my stomping ground. I think you did exceptionally well those conditions which looked more challenging than usual! You would love Snowdonia in mid winter after a snowfall! The Glyders are always unpredictable - I’ve had a blinding blue sky after a snowfall with visibility around five miles and also I’ve been up there in June with visibility around 50 metres…

[@markthebault3608]

the 4 and the 5 are breathtaking !

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you Mark :)

[@sander5086]

What an amazing video, Snowdonia will be on my list. I do like picture No5 the best, Iove the stream in the foreground!!!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a lot, Sander and thanks for your thoughts :)

[@BosePhotography]

Absolutely agree with your point about bad weather! We just did a vlog in the French Alps in 'awful' weather and it really forced us to look harder for good compositions. Bad weather can really help you to find more unique images, especially in areas that have already been well photographed. Great video, thank you!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Yeah it really gets you to think! :)

[@joedavies1524]

Terrific episode in your Britain series, really enjoyed the longer video. Snowdonia is just so hard to photograph, spent a week there last May and didn't get a single good shot. Have to vote for #5 this week, such a superb landscape photograph.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much Joe! I thought it would be harder, but I was lucky with the weather I guess - obviously I would have made other choices if I had clear weather and nice sunrises/sunsets :)

[@stevebowden4868]

No 4 for me an iconic image

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks for your thoughts Steve :)

[@nickliveseyphotographingth5050]

Mads, I enjoyed this video enormously. I live in Capel Curig in Snowdonia which is very close to all the locations in this film. Your images here are wonderful and I am thrilled you enjoyed your visit and rose to the challenge of our capricious weather. Bravo :)

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much Nick! Very happy to hear that from a local! I envy you for living there :)

[@TheEd027]

This video is just superb! Thanks so much for it, I visited Snowdonia last week and had to visit most of these locations! We had a disappointing day at the top of the Glyders though as we couldn’t see the Castle of the Winds through the clouds. I’ll be back for that shot another time! 😊

[@MadsPeterIversen]

You are most welcome! I hope you'll return and get your shot!

[@richardstaniford1463]

Awesome video, Mads. I am planning a trip to Snowdonia in January and have been searching for videos from the area. Your video is definitely the best and has given me some great inspiration.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a lot Richard! Really happy the video works :)

[@PaulGJohnsonphotography]

As Andy Keeble said. I love your work but your view of the UK is something else. Brilliant buddy

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much Paul! I so much appreciate when locals like my work!

[@PaulGJohnsonphotography]

Like is an understatement ;)

[@tiborrendek]

number 4. your videos are gettig better and better, really enjoyed this one.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you very much Tibor! :)

[@sirpatmcc]

Love your beautiful video’s. Very helpful,thank you.

[@photochick06]

Great job with the Lonely Tree! Well done!

[@Reidser3]

Amazing! That photo at15:30 is spectacular. Now subscribed. Looking forward to seeing more and catching up on the ones you have already posted.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much! Yeah I really love that shot too :)

[@willemakit48]

Mads, Loved this video, one of the things I love about photography, is the challenge of the shot in some cases. I see you doing this all the time to get that shot. I love the locations you have been to, love watching your videos and seeing the compositions you are able to walk away with. Love the music you put with your videos! Extremely creative. Not sure if you even realized that you created a quotable moment here. I will be using this and attributing it to you from now on. "When the conditions are as they are, the art is the work with it, or around it, and adjust to the scene." I love that. Can't wait for Covide to get under control to get out there. I have a trip to Japan in April! here is Hoping!!! Thank you for this video Mads, great as usual.!

[@ianlaw9836]

Inspirational !!! This is the kind of photography you don't usually see, the hikes, the locations, how to get there etc. You're actually out in the field showing us what you're doing - Thanks so much for videos like these!!

[@walterbraun1079]

Photos are awesome and Sophie is awesome to for accompanying you on these difficult journeys

[@paulhughes9724]

Whàt a fantastic vlog on Snowdonia some awe inspiring photography Mads

[@wicamulia]

This is your longest video right .... very very nice Mads,stunning images ..good job !

[@MadsPeterIversen]

It is indeed and thank you :)

[@thorstenwestheiderphotogra7722]

Absolutely stunning view towards mountain Tryfan, I like the last one the best. I also found that long exposures with around 1/2s shutter time work best for waterfalls and the like, it's the strands of water that look fantastic. By the way, if you find bad weather favorable, north-west Germany is a perfect location, I should consider myself lucky every day ;)

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Haha thanks Thorsten! For bad weather Denmark is good too! We just lack some mountains :P And you're so right with describing the 1/2 sec shutter :)

[@peterconroy5406]

Inspirational film with some of the best images of Tryfan i have seen... thank you!

[@peterbiggin7193]

This trip to the UK should be a tv series. Superb work in every aspect and I love the simple and clear narration and facts you give about each location. You are showing me places in my own country I have never seen before. Thank you

[@johanlisspers7934]

Good info and nice video scenes and photography! You make really nice videos Mads!😀👊

[@frankheinen4418]

fantastic video with wow effect, and the pictures Great. More of it please I take my hat off to both of you

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you very much Frank! :)

[@shanewilliams8617]

My playground 🙃 You’ve shown our mountains in all it’s bad weather in such a great way. I agree with windy castle (it’s what my family call it) there are no real ways to show it’s glory in an image, I’ve tried. I have been up there countless times in all weather including snow / ice and it’s tough - well done for trying again. Great shots anyway, all good 👍🏼

[@dannykenealy6080]

So glad you enjoyed Snowdonia. It's my favourite place to go and the place that got me hooked into landscape photography two years ago. I'm lucky to live a reasonably close distance to the park ☺ I'm just waiting for the snow to arrive to go back this year. One of my favourite videos you've produced so far mads.

[@way2dee]

Thanks Peter..... another nice vlog from you..... looking forward to the next one :)

[@MadsPeterIversen]

You're very welcome :)

[@wherezthebeef]

You inspire me greatly, your insight, perspective, commentary, and overall philosophical wisdom.. priceless M8! Thank you , very much.

[@philipsmith1465]

Brilliant thank you. I had been holding off going to Snowdonia when the weather is bad. No excuses now!

[@karlthetrader]

well done, I really enjoyed watching the whole video. my fav is #5 which has all in it what the scene offers you in a great composition and which is a world class image :)

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you very much Karl! :)

[@bobincdas]

I like 5 because of the strong foreground element in the flowing water very well contrasted by the dark, moody mountains in the background. :)

[@pausejulien8566]

Another Amazing video Well done ! Love your work

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a lot Pause! :) Much appreciated as always :)

[@dsneds555]

Another fantastic vlog Mads. I think for me it is either 5 or 6 as they just look a bit more epic with the dramatic clouds, but I like all the pics.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you for your thoughts David :)

[@dwelker3778]

Mads you have convinced me that even with the over photographed areas, you can come away with something totally unique. What beautiful images you were able to capture in spite of the stormy weather. I could not decide which of those images I liked the best, because they were all unique to the location and the mood. Thank you for sharing the details of your journey.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks so much! Yeah it's funny I've never had problems with making unique photos at well-photographed locations :)

[@richardsmith8115]

I really like 4 and 5, but 5 is my winner this week. That sky.....

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you again for your thoughts Richard :)

[@johnearl2303]

Another excellent video with some stunning photos, can’t make up my mind which one I like the best

[@StuartChapman193]

I did this trip 2 years ago and visited some of these places but you have shed new light on what to shoot and I love the "bad" weather. Don't do the long hikes though to old for that.

[@AdrianEvansPhotography]

Loved the Snowdonia trip, it's just down the road from me, thank you for sharing, now i've gotta go watch the rest of your video's, thank you

[@MadsPeterIversen]

You're welcome Adrian, good luck :)

[@simonmerriman2557]

Another brilliant blog Mads! Love all of the images but for me 5 was just a little more WOW! For me, you are the blogger to watch. Others are good but you just have that little extra that resonates with me. Keep the good work going!

[@johnbentley1056]

Fabulous !!!! A very inspiring video and such stunning photography. I dont think I have seen better. Thank you for sharing.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

You are very welcome John! I'm happy you liked it :)

[@philk9227]

Amazing vlog Mads. Some of the most moody and stunning images of Snowdonia I have ever seen! Simply incredible

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you SO much Philip :)

[@marona23]

Great video as ever, number 5 is an epic. amazing shot.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you for your thoughts Keith :)

[@upnorthbob410]

Another splendid vlog, amazing back drop!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you very much Bob! :)

[@helenadams9162]

Not sure how I missed this video as I am subscribed to you but, what an awesome video. I love the Ogwen Valley and i'm so fortunate to have it on my doorstep. Well done to you both for reaching Castle of the winds👌

[@ciarahutchinson]

Wow this is epic! Love the longer length video and am in awe of the effort you & Sophie put in. Incredible landscapes. I was last in Snowdonia when I was a kid and I remember we wrote my name in little white stones on one of the hillsides!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much Ciara! It was a tough one for sure - by far the toughest location we visited in Britain, but so worth it! :) - I guess it's about time to go back.

[@nkellyuk]

What a great vlog, I love your positivity and challenging yourself to take some epic shots in the stormy weather. If you're in a location that you may never get the chance to return to you have to make the best of what your given!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Exactly! Work with what you got and just give it a try :)

[@michaeljrgensen6350]

Loved you first videos! But these last two longer ones is just a fantastic new World. Keep it up !

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a bunch Michael! :) Happy you like the format.

[@richarddelasota1812]

You outdid yourself on this one. And I was glad to hear you mention Sophie. She's a trooper, God love her. Oh -- No. 3.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a lot Richard :) Yeah she is indeed!

[@mehrabreza1314]

Great video Mads. This is my favorite. It's so unique and a great price of art. Very amazing to see how great pictures can come out of bad weather. Thank you.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you very much Mehrab :)

[@bobincdas]

Mind blown ! :o With every video you just inspire me to go out and shoot !

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you very much Bobin and you're welcome :)

[@bornforadventureie]

Gorgeous, as always, all the photos are beautiful, but for me, one is the best, a stream with a mountain in the background.....I love how you captured the stream, the dramatic sky and the great light passing through the clouds...Just Amazing...

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much Jiri! :)

[@kaihornung1660]

What a great movie, Mads! Informative, entertaining and most of all with personality. Love it! Thank you so much for your passion and dedication in doing this to share with us. Cannot say how much it is appreciated, my friend.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much Kai! It means the world :)

[@richardswift8517]

I have been waiting for the Snowdonia video as it is a location that I visit as often as I can and wanted to see your perspective of it. I was not disappointed,Great video and amazing images.I very much look forward to the next in the series.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you very much Richard! :) I envy you for being able to visit it that often :)

[@medwynroberts]

A great vid, thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks. It’s a great location.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a lot Medwyn! Happy you did :)

[@dx3200]

Just came across one of your vlogs and subscribed right away. Great photos in bad weather. Beautiful compositions. Keep up the good work. I'll be watching all of your vlogs. Thanks and greetings from Canada.

[@loretagema9085]

I sign under every word of Andy Keeble! I loved everything in this vlog and particularly the colours and the mood - they are my favourite!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much Loreta! :)

[@tonyturner7676]

An absolutely stunning video. My favourite image was of Tinton Abbey (#1). Very atmospheric and telling a wonderful story. Thank you for sharing your thought processes when trying to shoot long exposures in windy conditions. Learnt a lot, thank you.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

You are very welcome Tony, happy you learned something :)

[@dmonaghan99]

Wow. Easily the absolute best travel/landscape vlog I've watched on KZbin. Stunning.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much! That means a lot! There're some really nice vlogs out there :)

[@johnmcfarland2055]

Absolutely stunning video.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you very much John!

[@LAALPETE]

Thank you so much for this treat Mads. Great tips, drama, well-chosen music and really inspiring and beautiful photography. The best vlog on KZbin. Number 5 is outstanding. I would hang it on my wall.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much Peter! Yeah I've really put a lot of energy into finding the right music :)

[@jimberry9676]

I feel like this should be shown to Brits as an information film. So many families head up with their kids, wearing sandals and t-shirts thinking it's just like walking through the local park! No kidding, I've been been up in these mountains in ful winter conditions with ice axe and crampons yet passed families with their kids all in trainers and with umbrellas in hand. Crazy. Also, I've walked these places at all times of year and in all conditions but didn't bother taking a proper camera with me. Really wish I could rewind and take my camera. Hard to get out now as I have a young family, but will definitely take all my kit next time!

Wow, what a stunning experience. Wonderful images, just great. When I have to choose I prefere 4and 5, which reflect for me very much the mood and atmosphere of the region. Thank you for this wonderful video.

Hi Peter! Thanks for sharing another episode. It really takes a special mind set to do photography, video reportage, hiking and Scrambling in difficult weather conditions. No 2 is my favourite for the tranquility the composition transmits. I would call a honourable mention to the first photograph with the rocks on the foreground and the castle in the background you showed on the video from the top of the Glyders - despite the very difficult weather conditions, I would say it's as good as it gets. Meaning you might live close by and return to the scene week after week and it could take you years or a lifetime to get that shot. ps. A suggestion for future reference: On long hikes in isolated areas I always turn my phone to flight mode. The phone keeps hunting for service due to the topography and isolation of the place (hence that interference) and It saves battery in case of an emergency.

Thanks for that tip, Vitor! :) and your thoughts :)

Ive started watching these again and i need to remember the tip of having the clouds coming towards you, it really made the image mads 👍

Thanks a lot, happy you liked it :)

Great work Mads, some very nice locations and your images definitely capture the mood and beauty of a great location regardless of the weather. My image choice for this Vlog, is number 5. Despite the visual turmoil of the stream as it bubbles by you and the menacing dark clouds overhead, I find it a very relaxing and pleasing composition. Well done mate and keep them coming.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you Darren! Yeah trying to find some nice compositions in dramatic conditions can offer some relaxing results :)

One of the best vlogs photographing landscapes I have seen. Informative, captivating and so very well presented, 30 minutes of pure magic. Off to catch up with your other presentations. Thank you and good luck with your endeavours.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a lot Richard! I'm very happy to hear that :)

Another awesome video buddy and some great shots as well. Your videos just keep getting better and better. And why, why, why have I not ben to Snowdonia in any of my trips to the UK. Even if you are not there to take photos just wandering around such a landscape is magical.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Yes! It's absolutely stunnin'! ;) You should go for sure and thank you so so much :)
