Blackpool in Bad Weather!

Come and join me on this rather dull, overcast day, whilst I battle the elements on the UK's Las Vegas..Blackpool.
Not everything goes to plan and I really have a love hate relationship with this place.

So what's the backstory behind this video?
Well, I’m a Landscape photographer, based in the UK, searching for interesting locations, mainly around the UK, but also traveling further afield. I endeavour to make all of my videos as interesting as possible, with editing skills I've picked up over the years, also with adding music to match the mood of the locations and images. Using a basic set up, consisting of my DJI Osmo Action, my Mavic Pro Drone (although not all the time) and either my trusty Nikon D810 or my Nikon D7200 cameras, for the images.
I always show my images, no matter how unhappy I am with them, I think you as the viewer deserve to see the good along with the bad, after all, if it’s on the video, you've already seen behind the scenes.
So sit back, grab a coffee or a tea, relax and enjoy my slightly unprofessional, sometimes comical, but always crammed with passion video.

Only just caught up with this one! I was in Blackpool December too, I got some nice shots but I was lucky the day I chose to go to the front was a good day! but I go too Blackpool for other reasons too. We all get the photographers block at times but the best way to get over this is to just go out with a camera and enjoy your day it does not matter if you don't get a picture but there is no harm in looking and letting your imagination run wild....best wishes and thank you for taking us to Blackpool........

Texting conditions there buddy but that said you got some nic einahes. With regards to your "photography block" I went through that spring this year so I can relate 100% it was a horrible feeling, that said I came through it and never been in the same situation since thank the lord, 202 I really want to do a lot more collaborations and get to places in the UK I haven't been. So if you ever fancy a meet up by all means get in touch yeah all the best for 2020 buddy.

[@BenMcDonaldPhotography]

Thanks mate, yeah I think we all tend to go through it one way or the other. As regards to collaborations, yes I’d be up for that and something I’ve fancied doing in the new year. I’ll message you via Facebook and we’ll sort something out. 👍 All the best and have a great night!

[@DanielBennettPHOTOGRAPHY]

@@BenMcDonaldPhotography fantastic I look forward to arranging a meet up all the best to you and your family mate ....I'm off for a night shift as a hospital porter, this will be a fun night ha

[@BenMcDonaldPhotography]

Daniel Bennett PHOTOGRAPHY thanks mate. Yeah I’m working too tonight, transport, oh the joys. 😆

Experienced a few wet days in Blackpool.

[@BenMcDonaldPhotography]

Honestly I don't think it ever stops! thanks for the Sub.

[@kenrees8726]

Since the lock down I have had no enthusiasm to go out with my camera and that is not like me at all.

[@BenMcDonaldPhotography]

I really understand why you'd lose your enthusiasm to head out with the camera, certainly with so many restrictions. Hope you get the desire back though soon.
