ARDSLEY RESERVOIR | Wakefield. West Yorkshire. England (Vlog #9)

A peaceful walk around Ardsley Reservoir in Wakefield, which is situated on the border with Tingley, Leeds. Filmed entirely in 4K Ultra High Definition video, with no narration and no music, just the gentle, natural sounds of nature.
You can access the reservoir via Haigh Moor Road, which joins Batley Road and Westerton Road. The reservoir is only a few minutes from Wakefield, Batley, Dewsbury and Morley.

Thoroughly enjoyable. I walk this route with my two dogs every week.

[@TheYorkshireVlogger]

I'm glad you enjoyed it.

I'm loving it. The colours are amazing.

[@TheYorkshireVlogger]

Thank you. Do you prefer the walk and talk videos or this one?

[@hollydenver7191]

@@TheYorkshireVlogger I like both.

You should have come and got me, I love that walk!

[@TheYorkshireVlogger]

Next time, Mariea. Do you prefer the walk and talk videos or the more relaxing ones like this?

[@soulmindshypnotherapymarie1966]

Ivor Lloyd I prefer a mixture of both.x

The walk looks good Ivor but is sadly lacking your informative narration accompanying the video. Please bring that back. #Yorkshire

Thanks for your feedback. This is an experiment with the 4K, more of a slow TV approach. I'm going to record both and put them under separate playlists and then gauge the feedback. I found it strangely peaceful and relaxing to film. It's the polar opposite to my warp speed videos.

[@seatea63]

@@TheYorkshireVlogger I agree about the polar opposites, the time lapse is good for general path walking but when it means missing a view it's definitely not a good thing. The positive side is the slowing down of the video at the great viewpoints. Perhaps this is where you break out and chat about the view and some of the other great information you provide whilst on your walks. Keep up the great work, loving them so far. I'm a Yorkshireman stuck on the darkside so the Saddleworth Moor and in particular Dovestone was a good one for me as i'm down the hill near Hollingworth Lake.

[@TheYorkshireVlogger]

@@seatea63 Hmm... Hollingworth Lake. I'm sure I've walked there before. Maybe I should try it again? The only problem with recording in 4K HD is the crazy amount of time it takes to upload and process. That 13-minute video took nearly 3 hours before it was available to view on KZbin. It was a 32-minute 'Slow TV' walk but the file was too large.
