Chasing the Light to Palouse falls - In the field episode #3

[@vaschro]

I enjoyed it , and to be honest its refreshing to see that sometimes things don't always work perfectly because that's just life !!!

[@originunknown3209]

Ground level shots Nick, ground level shots!!!

[@scht19]

Glad I found these videos from the Palouse that you shot Nick..I'M I'm heading there in four days. This did help me a lot. hope to spend a couple days here.. Thanks again..

[@wendling46]

Man I really miss ur old style video ! Absolutely epic ... really feel to be part of the adventure haha! Love it !

[@Landonlacey10]

That shot of Palouse Falls was breathtaking

[@lstvphoto]

One of my favorite videos. Very entertaining. Even your bad photos are awesome!

[@1young-geezer]

So here I am at the end of 2020 Xmas day watching a struggling young Nick. You did great! Really enjoyed the trip, the travel, the setups. Thanks

[@barbaragroom2638]

I loved this video. It was so honest.

[@utfan919]

the moment when you realize a "failure" picture for Nick Page is better than any picture you've ever taken. Awesome creativity!

[@LandscapesDronescapes]

Arrrrggghhh stop it! Serious vertigo watching that lol. Great video Nick as always

[@oLadyRev]

The waterfall one is BREATHTAKING. UNBELIEVABLY AMAZING! If you think you "failed", NO SIR YOU'RE NOT EVEN CLOSE. Love your videos! Much love from Dubai x

[@MusicGeneration2008]

Thank you Nick for also showing the fails you go through. I am not a professional photographer but i'm trying hard. And nearly every second time i go out photographing i start to panic because i went out too late or i stopped and went home too early. So thank you very much for this helpful lesson!

[@Spudhockey]

If that's considered your real life failure brother you are way ahead of the Curve. You can make art out of a whole lot of nothing, and that is Raw Pure Beautiful Talent. Excellent video thank you Nick.

[@johnpost8817]

Awesome videos and very nice photography! Greatings from the Netherlands.

[@theresarice7289]

We don't see many grain elevators in the Puget Sound, so I still find them interesting and that was a really good shot. Most of all, I loved seeing that someone else goes chasing around to catch the light! Just wish I was half as good as you at it.

[@debbiewitt7028]

You could make a pile of dodo look good Nick, oh and by the way after 8 years, your driving hasn’t changed! Nice shots!

[@Lemonpopz]

Watching this video for the first time, this is blowing my mind. I too live in Oregon. I got into photography a few years ago. And I too was out on a county road like that when the sun set out by Christmas Valley recently, scrambling to make something out of it. I also chose a grain silo after missing the best of the light while stuck in my car. I also then chose the road to shoot. I also was similarly disappointed with the results. Everything you're saying in this video is hitting home for me haha. But the coolest part is how far you've come since 2016. In 5 years you went from this, to where you are today photographically (I have no clue what your following was like then) and that inspires me. Maybe I also can go from this to the absolutely next level stuff you produce nowadays. So glad I caught this.

[@anthonygallagher8341]

All top shots. It's about making the best of the situation and location and you did just that 📷. P. S. Enjoying the podcasts so thought and check out your KZbin. Good work!

[@mikemanning8253]

Nick...I know this an old video from you, but I must say...Epic fail my arse!!! Outstanding shots, you have beautiful locations to shot... and those falls...phew. Each time you should us over the edge, my stomach flipped as if I was about to go base jumping. Beautiful shots, thank you for sharing the adventure.

[@Twistedtastebuds]

Any idea how many people have never seen a grain elevator or a dirt road? You did great those pics will tell a story now and 20 years from now. Great job love your videos.

[@davidmaltby2065]

Great video, and the images were great too.

[@erenatis]

Great video Nick! Reminded me of all the times I'm too late and scrambling for a foreground element.

[@lakejindsay]

I'm up in the Tri Cities every 6 weeks or so and never knew about the Palouse Falls and how close they were! Thanks for the insight and awesome video. I can relate to the frustration oh so well, haha!

[@Luigi13]

Hello Nick, I enjoyed watching your videos which I came across by accident. I am intrigued by the area because I do live in the pacific NW west of where you are. These videos are giving me the scouting ideas which I find to be challenging when I go to create images. Nice work you do and thanks for the information in your photo shoots.

[@K5KJ]

Such is the nature of storm chasing! Very interesting and entertaining video.

[@ninwithwes]

first shot was the best one. sometimes the way it goes. keep it up Nick!

[@leifedmondson2813]

Your beautiful shot and this video of the Palouse falls (aside from giving me vertigo) reminds me of the Grand Coulee/Dry Falls area in Grant county. Thanks for making these awesome videos.

[@rodney3991]

Loving your channel! Learning lots of take-away's to incorporate into my own photography! I actually chase storms all over tornado alley, it was this hobby that brought me into photography a couple years ago.

[@jilliandennis2576]

Just watched, WOW, that waterfall was epic.....just one thing though.i am an amateur togger....LOL....i suffer from vertigo, real badly, when you were stood near the edge, i can tell you now, my palms are STILL sweating.You scared the life out of me. Loved this vlog, like your work, so keep them coming.

[@maxmillion4216]

OK Nick, you didn't fail.....Amazing Photos. I'm headed to Palouse Falls now. Damn what site to see. I live in Seattle.

[@rustynails113]

I just finished viewing your video to the end.. Failure?? If I can achieve such failures, my gear will be worth every dime I have spent and ever will spend. OMG, I can't wait for our next trip to east of the mountains. When I have been east of the mountains I always see things that make me feel good inside.....now if I can capture those memories and bring them home.

[@alexcarrillo1]

Awesome video, awesome photos.

[@iemboyshostel]

Thanks very much for making this video.. i will be going to Palouse soon and this will definitely help

[@elizabethwhitley5169]

Just came upon your video... WOW! Your work, I love it!

[@SandipanBiswas]

I know this is an old video. I watched it now and I liked it. Nick, can we get some more videos like these? Us, regular landscape photogs somehow connect with this video a lot. Thank you for sharing.

[@benanderson2348]

Wow! Palouse Falls looks awesome. Love your shot of it as well and I've really been enjoying your videos since I found them. I feel like we have a similar approach to shooting, so I find myself easily picking up the tips that you throw in along the way. I'm taking a photo trip in a few weeks and will be in that area. I may just have check this place out if it doesn't take me TOO far out of the way.

[@ronchapmanII]

don't be so down about the grain elevator, it came out very cool, I live in western Washington so I don't see much of that, now I really need to get to Palouse falls, that was an incredible shot, keep up the amazing work

[@BMRTV]

Thanks for the vid. Doing a little research as my wife and I are heading over to Pullman in the next week or two...figured I'd swing by the falls. Of course I'll take any other advice on locations in the area that are can't miss.

[@thork-media]

The first Picture is my fav. it is a really nice composition... Great Video!

[@dasheddub]

Love your vids man! I have been in this situation with the sunset many times, and it is one of the most frustrating feelings ever!

[@gheorghefalcaru]

Liked this very much! You sound a lite depressiv! But that is only because creativity takes over. You are an artist!

[@mrdrizz9270]

It's part of the fun, chasing the setting sun. I like a dark stormy skyline just as much as great sunset/rise.

[@vacanechaser]

Bro. Ive been watching old videos on KZbin.. all while digging through old images of mine for re-editing this week. Somehow this video is one I've missed before. Well, I see its almost 4 years old. I have the same color Chevy POS as you used to have here. At about the 15:20 mark my wife says, hey look, his speedometer doesn't work just lies yours doest!!!..LOL. She was right... Yours appears to have been stuck at zero.. Mine is stuck at like 160 or something, it went all the way around until it hit the damn peg and just stopped there. Been that way for about 2 years. Worst vehicle I've ever owned! LOL. Anyway, great seeing the old stuff and how far you have come in your work in editing, shooting images as well as your video work. Keep it up!!

[@williamconnell6541]

Great to see even the pros have failures, although i don't think you did, personally i think your grain elevators shot was the best, cheers.

[@lukeedwards]

Nice work Nick, great videos. I know of some kayakers that have paddled this waterfall, Rafa Ortis and Rush Sturges (River Roots). That would be an epic shot of them dropping this waterfall at same time. Thoughts for the future.

[@nicktrickmc9103]

Great video, Nick! Wish I lived so close to a beautiful waterfall like that... Although Seattle does have some pretty beautiful spots.

[@jasseful]

If you go on the right day with a beautiful sunset snoqualmie falls is seriously beautiful. I have a pano I shot at snoqualmie that got pretty popular. It's all about the time/light!

[@NickPage]

its crazy but I havn't ever shot Snoqualmie.. I guess I just wish there was less "hand of man" on display there. Just a huge impressive waterfall!

[@cillyede]

Very nice shots and video!

[@ryanchew9200]

Keep up the good work! Entertaining video!

[@p7105550]

Loved the grain elevator shot actually

[@videos1692]

I nearly spat my tea over my laptop when you pointed your go-pro over the edge of those falls, great photography bro.

[@roamsnaprepeat]

Midwest represent! Chicago is my hometown!

[@jorgeadrian9339]

Man I love this. I'm fairly new to photography and I would like to do landscape photography. I'd like to see more videos like this one, there's so many tips and inspiration for me. Hyped!

[@thesheikhnoor]

Very inspiring series! Thank you so much for your great effort and sharing solid photography knowledge for newbies like me. (Y)

[@VentureVisual]

Beautiful man. This is perfect

[@Zanagash]

I live in Yakima, I went to Palouse last year but I didn't hike that far !! Damn I want to go back now !

[@amoughnieh]

Great video, please do more of these episodes

[@keithmitchell6548]

i agree with a previous comment, i like this format of chasing the light.. :-)

[@debp44]

Awesome footage, Thank you.

[@graysmith4732]

Fantastic images Mr Page.

[@Need4Life]

Very nice !!! 👍🏻 👍🏻

[@JonFuchs]

Nick, that was awesome. Glad to see I'm doing it right ;) lol! In all seriousness, thank you for the behind the scenes. It's what guys like me need to see that everyone has the same struggle to get an epic shot.

[@FrankRupprecht]

great! very good choice of tripod, too! ;)

[@FunWithJohn]

Great job Nick!

[@PAISLEYDEREK]

Nick, do you have a tutorial on bracketing and editing your two shot brackets? Beautiful images as always.

[@robhansen8964]

Great shots Nick Those falls are Amazing I live in Spokane have been there twice. I noticed Your speedometer doesn't work LOL : )

[@billbaker1406]

love this kind of video keep it up.

[@ice9001]

The grain elevator appreciation society care about grain elevators ;-) . Great Video man . Great channel .

[@HowardHearne]

Beautiful country, instant vertigo at the falls.

[@jilliandennis2576]

+Howard Hearne Me too Howard....lol.

[@slipperysquid]

Subbed mate! Just working my way through your videos now! When the camera looked over the edge my balls actually started heading North!

[@danaclarkephotography2951]

Looks like it was a great day at the office, despite the trepidations.

[@partypie1977]

G'day nick. Love your images and videos. Could you link us to where you found the magnetic filter holders ?

[@edlazor6698]

@Nick Page which magnetic adapter are you referring to in this video? Are you still using it?

[@brockwarrener3504]

Awesome video! You should consider getting a lav mic to clip on for better audio.

[@GaryRandallPhotography]

Nick - I always have my 70-200 on when I'm travelling. :D Great advice man.

[@keithmitchell6548]

great photos!

[@brett327]

The canyon was cut by waters from the Missoula Flood events 15K years ago, not the Palouse River.

[@ortopet519]

really like your video Thank you Nick

[@GarfieldTheater]

Falls, nice. A bit scary, but excellent video.

[@elliotmullet]

What is the name/brand of the magnetic filter adapter you are using? That looks really slick!

[@NickPage]

+Elliot Mullet Xume .. I will be doing a video on them.. not perfect, but really cool

[@johnkelly2197]

Hi Nick, loving your films. Can you tell me which metering mode you would use on this subject? I would have thought Matrix (Nikon) but would love to know your thoughts, Thanks mate.

[@NickPage]

+john kelly well to be honest, I dont really pay attention to the cameras metering system.. I shoot in manual, and when I am on a tripod I am always in live view.. I check my histogram to make sure I am not blowing out my highlights or blocking up my blacks.. and just go from there. If I am getting close to loosing both.. I bracket my shots and blend them in photoshop later on!

[@johnkelly2197]

+Thank you Nick. It is such a shame we don't have landscapes over here in the UK like yours. Use what I have I think, lol. Thanks again.

[@clemenstrimmel1863]

I really enjoy watching your videos from all the way down in Austria! Got a question for ya, do you also have a tutorial on how to blend images together as you did im this video for instance? Highly appreciate your answer and of course all your following videos. Thanks for your effort.

[@NickPage]

I do. I make videos for the people over at www.improvephotographyplus.com I have several videos about exposure blending, dodging and burning, and luminosity masks over there. Its a subscription site that runs about 25 per month.

[@jamesmarko1787]

Nick do you typically only bracket two shots for blending? I Can't believe you said you failed in this episode, I think the shots you took look great.

[@allandavies1187]

Loved wind turbine shots. Wondering do you ever use a cable release ???

[@NetGawker]

Was the wind strong enough to rock both tripods or just the one you used to film?

[@mikkelguy]

i wish i could learn all the settings so when i'm out shooting i would know what to change and not to change for me to take the best photos i just can't remember it haha

[@weareyesyesyes]

First of all, that waterfall! oh my goodness. You sure are lucky. Secondly, I stumbled across your page, your videos are great. Seriously, quality and the quantity are fantastic. Keep it up! Sub'd

[@gr8_22-15]

What don't you like about that magnetic filter?

[@NickPage]

+gr8 photography because of the extra thickness it adds, when your shooting at the wider end of the focal length you get some vignetting, making the last millimeter or two not usable.

[@davidroberts5535]

Nick, great video. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one racing around with my hair on fire chasing the light. I feel like a dufuss sometimes and wonder how others do it. You're keeping it real and I appreciate it. Quick question. If you had only 2 hours in the Palouse area...where would you shoot? Thanks

[@stevejordan2840]

You gave me a heart attack with that tripod leg right on the edge.

[@MatthewLahnJohannessen]

Hey Nick, love your videos! Was wondering which canon full frame you would recommend for a first full frame camera? I would be using it for mostly landscapes and Astrophotography

[@lindaholder2225]

Are you manual focusing? Also did you process in photoshop?

[@PaulFanMing]

Hi Nick, For your panorama shot, you didn't employ any nodal slide for better stitching, or you think it is not needed.

[@NickPage]

I am of the belief that, you dont need it for most casual panos. I have yet to come across a pano that didn't work because I didn't have a slide. there is some "boundary warp" you have to do on these images, but for the post part it stitches really well.

[@PaulFanMing]

Thank you.

[@rachelhultgren8125]

This video gave me such anxiety. But the photos are beautiful!

[@jameswright249]

You have taught me to be more Dedicated to the image!!!

[@bongicehawk2421]

Nice video!

[@geonerd]

11:00 makes me anxious about your camera making the Great Leap....

[@fredericktaylor1801]

Getting some inspiration from Stoppers for your intro music? Haha keep up the great videos man!!

[@johne2311]

I wouldn't call that road shot a fail, but I understand the feeling of disappointment in a shoot.

[@terrywbreedlove]

Damn your tripod was right on the edge.

[@jhosseestyven5628]

Anyone know what magnetic ND filter that was?
