Anybody Could Take This Picture + Grumptons Campervan Tour

Behold My Book: www.fototripper.com/chasing-a...
This landscape photography vlog sees the return of Uncle Grumpy but I'll warn you now - the flatulence has reached biblical proportions and it's relentless.
On the plus side, we witness some spectacular light at Canmore's prettiest pond and it's so easy that it almost feels like cheating. We don't get many days like this but when we do, it's totally magical so we might as well rinse it for all it's worth. In addition to some practical composition walkthroughs, you also get the added bonus of a campervan tour.
Uncle Grumpy has made some upgrades that will make Thomas Heaton rather jealous, after all, Grumpacious was the pioneer so all that matters is that it looks better than Toms.
Will Grumpton manage to fix his wobbly knob, will Amanda be feeding him a 'Flake Dog' and what does 'Grumpchowder' really taste like? Hit that play button and feast your eyes on the 'Magentic' scenery of the Canadian Rockies during Autumn. You'll be glad you did.
Oh and if I see a comment saying ''You don't take a picture, you make one''...

Errr what books that? Who’s it by? Any good? 😊

[@DuncanHeather]

Any idea how long it usually takes to get to the UK? Wife ordered it for Christmas 3 weeks ago. Keeping my fingers crossed

[@brumtownvloggers]

First time seeing this channel today. Proper cracked me up. Will def be watching more getting some tips for my own channel. My dream to retire and do some traveling taking pictures like u guys

[@zacharyr764]

@@brumtownvloggers these videos with Adam Gibbs in there are some of the best! They are halirous when they get together. I watch both their channels religiously but Gavin's channel is the only KZbin channel I don't mind watching "re-runs" of. If you ask me though, I'd like to see a Impractical Jokers spoof with Gavin, Adam and Thomas for the best shot. - I'd hate to be the loser at the end of the show though... (you're welcome Gavin, get on it and make it happen now.)

[@TheBonsaiZone]

The "wind" picks up whenever Uncle Grumpy is around, I'm no expert, but it could be a factor.

[@davidmedeiros7572]

I'm sure I'm late to this but here goes anyway...The breeze is literally created by the sun's warmth. As the sun warms the land (soil and rocks) the land warms the air just above it which rises and pulls in cooler denser air from nearby, hey presto - breeze created! In mountains the effect is compounded by the high bare slopes. The mountain sides are warmed first with early light and being mostly bare rock they warm quickly. The air around the slopes begins to rise quickly, sucking in cooler air from lower down (the pond and valley) so the effect seems to come on like a switch at times. And it come dissipate just as fast when the sun goes down and the air temps stabilize.

[@markheatherington8367]

The sun heats areas differentially causing changes in air pressure. This causes air movement - high pressure flowing to low. Uneven heating is often more pronounced near bodies of water. Wonderful video of a "perfect" landscape morning!

[@nb7524]

OH MY those shots are gorgeous!! I don’t care if they are considered “low hanging fruit” not everybody gets that shot because they’re not there under those conditions. You truly did justice to that stunning scenery, those shots are dreamy!❤️🥰

[@redauwg911]

Fujifilm thank you for giving Gavin the camera

[@dan_mills__791]

Sun comes up, heats the air, warm air rises, air needs to replace it, wind happens!

[@greg2337]

The sun comes up and the thermal differential causes that wind. The wind is essentially a biproduct of warm air and cool ground. When the air is warm and humid and there's snow on the ground thats when fog usually happens. meteorology and landscape photography go hand and hand for me. :) More vids like this!!!

[@MartinFnGolej]

My simple understanding of this phenomena is that Sun hits air/ground, causes change of temperature and that causes the air to start moving. I once winnessed this over a ridge, at noon, as the sun rays "folded" over the ridge into the valey, for 15 minutes, wind picked up and clouds swent moving from one side of the mountain to the other, once those 15 minutes passed, whiteout settled back in and visibility was all but gone. It was quite an experience.

[@deransadventures]

*** Regarding breezes when the sun rises, it's because ground heats faster than water, thereby the air above the ground is heating faster than the water above the lake. The air above land then rises (warm air rises, cold sinks), and the air over the water gets sucked in over land to replaced the air that has risen. That's how sea breezes work on a much larger scale.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

I watched and now feel a movement coming on

[@fototripper]

a catastrophic one?

[@zeballos5757]

😆

[@scottandlindae3803]

Nap time is a sign of real maturity!

[@donkinneyphotography]

You and Adam, yahoo! That chemistry is amazing.

[@TheThaiLife]

Your videos inspired me to make videos, poorly. Very poorly. But I have loads of fun. But I have even more fun watching your videos. Thank you!

[@runepehrsson73]

Nice to the Sony is back 🙂

[@craigchuck4247]

Catching up on some fototripper ( 2months worth) and comedic duo of you and grumpy has had me crying with laughter! I'm 36 laughing at 2 blokes farting, it's like an obscure real life version of Terrence and Philip (South park reference).

[@pthompson108]

As the sun rises it warms the air sitting on the lake, and that air rises. As the air rises more air comes in from the side to replace it creating a breeze.

[@csucameli]

Adam really is comedy gold! "I'm doing it for the 'Gram man"

[@matthewhernandez4715]

I'm no meteorologist but I can tell you the reason its windy is because you guys wont stop violently sharting in proximity of the lake

[@relaxation_ambience]

I've noticed that the less you talk about photography and the more you show about the household, small talk jokes and nature in general, the more I like your videos :)

[@terrylstarks]

Grumpton, it’s been to long, it’s great to hear you again!!!!!!

[@IvoTichelaar]

I am in no need of another KZbin channel to follow, especially with in-depth and long videos. But here we are, I am subscribed, I'm watching, and I'm enjoying it.

[@valeriehoffman8180]

Fantastic episode. Gorgeous light, and truly funny moments between you guys. can't wait for the next one!

[@barparildar]

This channel is turning into my favorite comedy show lately. When I go to a remote location I download your videos and just watch them when I have no connection. Thanks a lot for bringing on the good vibes! Hope to see you on the road someday :) Or maybe jam!

[@ianhamer4294]

Luv it, luv it, luv it. You Amanda and Adam, what a team.

[@HanhNguyen-mh4jm]

Those lights!! Oh My !! So beautiful!! Love watching you guys always 😍😍😍😍

[@keithsandercock1412]

Terrific series of images! Nothing better than having it all to yourself photographically, along with Amanda and Uncle Gumpton for amusement.

[@josephmckay9046]

Absolutely stunning.

[@richardaneale]

The wind usually picks up after sunrise because the sun heats the ground and the air close to the ground which caused it to rise. This then causes the cooler air aloft to fall down to replace the risen air. Hence the cool breeze... Another class video Gavin 👍🏻👍🏻

[@pixelgenau2982]

Pressure rises when air gets heated up. Cooler air has lower pressure. Air always wants to equal pressure like a balloon when you release the air inside. This behavior creates movement we call wind.

[@alanparkinson549]

@@pixelgenau2982 Sorry, you're completely wrong there. When the air is warmed by the ground, it expands at essentially the same pressure - the pressure at any point in the atmosphere is simply the weight of the column of air above that point. As soon as it expands even slightly it becomes less dense than the surrounding air and so it rises. At which point surrounding air immediately flows in to replace it, hence the breeze.

[@mattdelcomyn8012]

Great fun Gavin! Thanks so much!!

[@beolba1]

Great photos! Photogasmic!

[@Zealor365]

Right place at the Right time...Bravo,

[@astralbody]

Funny funny funny! Nice low hanging fruit! Lovely scenery! Nice to follow along, cheers!!!

[@davidpeak1323]

Just gorgeous photos/scenery!

[@joelhuntress6736]

The sun heats the air making it rise and the cooler air rushes in to fill the void causing a breeze. It can be quite dramatic sometimes, other times mild.

[@mitzimckay7934]

Spectacular!

[@Jeff-jg7jh]

The best reflection I've seen.

[@johnepattison]

Honestly, I smiled throughout this whole video. Thanks for bringing the delight, while also teaching. I'm going through the F4 course right now and experiencing the same thing. Thank you for all of it.

[@beth3511]

AWESOME!!! SOOO FUNNY! LOVE THE SHOTS! Happy Holidays!!!

[@kennygo8300]

Another awe-inspiring video with Mr. Gibbs. Thank you!

[@DarrenJSpoonley]

If Carlsberg did photography shoots they would be just like this one !! Outstanding location, light and shots !! Great to also see Uncle G back for the usual banta !! The reflections disappeared due to the change in barometer pressure from Grumpaciousfarticus

[@andrewbalcombe1338]

Movement on the water is caused by methane emissions from Uncle Grumpy's bum rising and then bouncing back off the low clouds to land on the water. It also makes the tree leaves go a richer shade of yellow... and brown.

[@MrBthames2000]

Your dry humor keeps me coming back. Wildlife is my passion. Landscape is nice. But the backpacking and dry humor keep me here and making sure I comment. Hope the algorithm takes you for a ride, Gavin.

[@janetholman3460]

Love all your videos Gavin!! Your style, sense of humor and the crew you hang out with just make for enjoyable viewing. And I must say, you are one lucky dude to have Amanda who compliments every aspect of your videos. Keep up the good work !!!

Mother Nature was with you Gavin. Great light and photos. 👌👌👌

[@sarahbatsford4791]

Stunning scenery, totally envious Gavin. Great video.

[@johnburke1682]

also, yourr question, its because the sun heats up the air, and warm particles move faster than cold particles, so the air suddenly heats up, becomes more active, and moves the water

[@galensinkey]

Idk how I missed this one. This was exceptional. I watched / listended to the music at 18:00 several times. Excellent.

[@roysheets4159]

i really enjoy your explanations of how you compose the photos and why you include the various elements in the photos

[@westvirginianlivin9871]

That light was absolutely glorious. And those shots came out amazing. Thoroughly enjoy watching you all.

[@edphoto]

We've got a TV show in the UK called 'Gone Fishing' and its just basically two blokes traveling around the country enjoying their friendship to the backdrop of their hobby. It's the best thing on TV And I think you and Adam would be amazing with your own show. 'Amazon Prime please get in touch'

[@duncansteward4331]

Agree; i think some Producer for a TV Channel has missed an opportunity for sure .

[@mickeystine3100]

good to see you 3 doing a shoot again

[@jadedesire7]

Crazy! I remember dragging my mate up our first day at Canmore after a full day of driving from Vancouver to catch the sunrise. I wanted to shoot at the Rundle Forebay but parking was closed, so ended up heading to Quarry Lake and had amazing fog that morning! Easily one of the best decisions I've made. And only saw one other person and a dog there. Super peaceful.

[@ChrisDSAC]

Merry Christmas thankyou for the entertainment & laughs stay safe. Mr Grumpy I do like a dram of Deanston slainte.
