Landscape Photography | Capture what you See AND Feel

[@jacasado77]

I can't express with words how I feel about your vlog... Almost every single one of them is like attending a workshop. You not only have the ability to SEE the images, but also tell other what you saw and how you saw it so we can go out in our own adventures and try to capture all the beauty this vast world has to offer. Please keep it up!!!

[@lesmartin4220]

You are a breath of fresh air, giving a different perspective (no pun intended) to how you see things, thanks very much.

[@mygad]

Always a great introspective, artistic and tranquil experience checking in on these videos.

[@Semeyaza]

Damn... after a very hard week with no time at all for leisure, even less for going out to take some photos, your calm, quietly competent videos are a balm for the soul. Thank you! Cheers

[@nicolinogiangiordano1680]

Craig, this video is one of your best for more reasons than just the great images. TOP job!

[@colinmair2576]

Great series of videos... love the way you present them. I think your second photo with the 3 rocks and island trees is superb!

[@inthenameofjustice8811]

A man being honest to himself.... I like and respect that. I also like the fact that you want to get the picture right in the camera and not create a fake in Photoplop.

[@overhang88]

I absolutely love your videos. Really like how you thoughtfully talk through your composition and thoughts about a scene. It is inspiring and makes me want to get out and shoot, unlike other channels which are jsut gear, gear, gear, gear ,gear. Thanks you!

[@martingranger40]

Love your creative composition - I've learned so much from it. Thank you so much for taking to the time to make these vlogs - I am sure there are many people like me who are looking to move beyond the cliche, and you are helping them get there!

[@tonytwyman]

Great images, displaying the purist in you... Loving the humour

[@jamesjohnston6765]

Absolutely agree about what you are trying to get out of your images. It is all about conveying your emotional reaction to a location.

[@finch54]

Great tutorial Craig!! Love the humour and brilliant pictures. Look forward to your vlogs a real inspiration.

[@southdevonpixiephotography4119]

Brilliant video. I really loved this place Amazing photographs. All the best and i`m looking forward to the next video. Cheers Dave.=)

[@b.s.4478]

Great vlog as usual, stunning photos! Especially the on @9:30...gorgeous!

[@chriseastty2874]

U and Paul Johnson are 2 great vloggers and also the funniest as well, love the humour and the images, keep it up sir

[@PaulGJohnsonphotography]

Thanks bud x

[@danielhamilton2157]

another great video and I know just where you're coming from about chasing sunrises and sunsets.

[@trevorstreet3596]

Just brilliant vlogs every time 👍🏻

[@martinsarre]

Inspirational video, I like the way you found some great compositions in a complicated area

[@lupo1401]

pictures are beautiful. 👏👏👏👏👏

[@kenhenley7599]

Very interesting thought process...and some more stunning images.

[@christianboue523]

Bonjour. Thank you for being yourself in what you like in photography. You help us try to be ourselves. Too many vloggers assert that you can catch good images only by sun rising or sun setting.

[@ravifernando1637]

We really enjoying and learning through your videos. Very nice. We feel like we are there with you. Thanks for what you are doing. 😃👍

[@luigisaria]

Very nice creative processing. I watch your channel for a while now and I love the simplicity in which you tell the story and your thinking process. In this video in particulary, I found out that I share the same idea as you, Craig. I'm not the photographer that seeks the sunset or sunrise. In most days I just grab my camera and tripod and go out to take a walk and watch the city. When someting catch my eyes, I start to think the compostion and take the shot. Everywhere there's a photograph opportunity. Thanks again for the amazing content! Cheers from Brazil

[@MrPotts44]

Stunning work Craig!

[@101jumpit]

Just an honest down to earth bloke that takes great photo's,not like all the other U Tubers who think they are some of the world's greatest togger's. ! Thank you sir :)

[@nicolinogiangiordano1680]

Couldn't agree more! Craig Roberts' e6 was my first subscription to anything KZbin and was absolutely the reason I went and bought my first DSLR. I love the way he presents his vlogs. His manner and the tempo of the videos make them a pleasure to watch and learn from. This video is one of my favorites for its honesty and the way he approaches the scene in front of him; working harder to get a unique image from an obviously awe inspiring vista. The image where the rocks mimic the mountains is a classic example of hard work being rewarded with a result that puts a smile in your mind. Magic!

[@jeep970]

clouds are majic for sure....good video...

[@JB-se2ef]

Great photos great sense of humour I’ll have too try that Wooing trick myself I’m amazed no one has thought of it before 😂👍🏻

[@nickchiarello9865]

Great work, I always enjoy your Vlogs.

[@searam1]

Another excellent e6 video! I especially like the way you compose your images! Those two rocks did look very similar to the mountains. Good eye! Thanks from Atlanta!

[@jeep970]

Nice shots ... great spot to shoot...

[@peterbrehaut3780]

I love your work. I really do not do landscapes so for me to watch your videos there must be something in it that you are doing right. I fully agree with your comment on sunrise and sunset photos as I live on a small Island and they really are done to death over here.

[@runninblue9415]

One of your best. Easily. Great to see how your mind works lol. Just great compositions. Never seen Assynt looking so good. It's all about the weather up there aye

[@gui4j]

really nice photography Craig , and i liked your explanation of your view points of landscape photography and i concur , i think we should all work a little harder to be unique , there is beauty in the landscape without a sunrise and sunset .. i quite like the emptiness of the lakes though, i thought it offered a contrast to mountains, trees and rocks and helped bring out the features of the other elements in the scene.... the 3/4 image you showed us, with the fallen tree in the foreground when you changed position i thought was money:) .. really really beautifully captured ... looking forward to your next vid .. and ditto to chris eastty's comment

[@kimc5750]

What an inspiration.

[@capt1089]

Loved that second composition. Smashing!

[@srhphoto1]

Enjoyed this one Craig. Very important message delivered in your own unique style 😃

[@paulus0109]

Thanks for explaining how you are working. Very inspiring Craig.

[@kaywayneflor89]

Beautiful shots, the photos we share should always be the alternative view the 'now look at it this way'.

[@erichstocker4173]

Great video and wonderful shots. I appreciated you explaining how you were pre-visualizing the photos. That gave some great information.

[@MarkKellyPhotographyUK]

Beautiful images

[@wojtekgrabowski1]

whoo whoo...you became weather master :) very nice vid my friend

[@jamesclark1152]

Great video Craig, interesting insight into how you develop your compositions. Excellent thanks

[@evak8210]

Fabulous images ,compositions perfect as always! Thank you for sharing!

[@leanderhoefler7054]

Love the colors of this location, definitely have to visit it one day. Especially like the shots you took close to the water. But I must say the image at 11:25 is just absolutely breathtaking, love the mood and the darkness and the contrast to the bright lake. Very well done!

[@jemaluang1]

Love your moody images,thanks for sharing!

[@Higgins_Nature_Photographer]

Great choice of compositions, and beautiful shots 😃

[@albreax]

inspiring like always. thank you

[@WilliamLesourd]

Great compositions

[@Bazzo61]

Wow. Totally agree about moving away from the cliche shot. These shots are certainly not cliche. Love your style of photography and video. Looking forward to the next instalment.

[@chuckyzzz]

Agree

[@paulwayman5137]

Nice Craig. Keep up the vlogs. :)

[@kevinpritchard6260]

Entertaining as always thank you Craig aka The Weather Man

[@allandavies1187]

Hello Craig, thank you, for sharing. Loved your images and take on the area....

[@socjhz1]

Great video, thanks for sharing

[@marcelzwart3527]

Very nice, informative vlog with a bit of humor Craig. You shot some beautiful images.

[@eltinjones4542]

Well captured again. I agree about sunrise/sunsets - to be honest for a different reason. I'm crap at them 😂

[@G0FUW]

Nicely done Craig, I wasn't so keen on the images early in the video - the mountains were too far in the distance but the ones around the Loch were brilliant, and not too pretty. Very jealous that you got to spend time in Assynt. I did a whistle stop day tour as an 'extra' on the way home from Lewis a couple of years ago. You reminded me why I wanted to go back.

[@septormusic8772]

fab vlog as usual so thumbs up from me Craig. I was interested on your adapter for your polariser, I work with the 7/5 kit as well and the rather expensive polariser that comes in the kit is completely useless with a wide angle lens, so I think I will have to follow your lead and rig one up for myself. be interesting to see how you rigged yours up Craig, looks like a couple of screws and a wee bit of glue perhaps?

[@Quaker521]

Great vlog and great to see someone who goes for what they want rather than just what may be expected. Assynt looks great and is on my list of places to visit after only discovering it at the end of last year. Oh, and I like the images too!

[@RalphGoldsmith]

Great video, you got some lovely shots and the advice about shooting what you like and feel is excellent

[@cjmartin69]

I loved your shots great stuff.....wooo woooo that was priceless.

[@SidBonkers51]

Great video, really like the square format images, they work really well and Its something I rarely think about when looking for a composition, I tend to think only in portrait and landscape probably as thats all Ive ever shot. So I will definitely make an effort to 'think square' the next time Im out and about. Thank you, youre an inspiration.

[@TheDerisavi]

I like the way you are thinking.

[@harrogatefan4976]

Great pictures could you let us know the settings you use for your pictures ?

[@mikekay6288]

Thanks, as always; a thoughtful and reflective vlog. I'm learning to take more vertical, or portrait shots, and the necessity to have foregound 'subjects', midground and background. Your dialogue is leading the way. Keep up the philosophical viewpoints. Mike in Oz

[@NasCostomano]

Guess you're right in your outlook, like light trails over London Bridge or looking towards St. Paul's, with many photos around photographers must find another way of viewing. which can also mean a greater chance for self-expression. The words of a shrugging Oliviero Toscani looking at a contestant's photo I thought was okay on a Master of Photography also come back to warn whenever I think there might be a good view to shoot - 'nice postcard'. Wasn't a compliment. Great video as usual - like that I had to pause for laughter!

[@BartRos1980]

Wow, can you also make it sunny ? If so I might hire you time to time. Lovely video and landscape though. Would have wanted to see some timelapse.

[@kenny75photography2]

Excellent vlog, Craig and your images were great, particularly that one of the island and the two rocks leading off toward the mountain. I need to eat more weetabix aswell then if that helps with that cloud woo-ing! ;-)

[@robertmathieson1083]

Your vids are tremendous. Full of interest and information. Non-pretentious. What about my fav, Orkney and it's islands Hoy etc?

[@tanltdowar]

Very inspiring shots.

[@Himlovesrunning]

Thanks and very informative.

[@paultaylorphotography9499]

Great series mate beautiful collection of shots

[@yujinlandscapephotography.7787]

Beautiful capture, Craig love your video. Thank!

[@Eugene-Braack]

For a geezer, your choice of music is pretty good :-) Love your tutorials. You've taught me to be more selective in what to include/exclude in an image, and to set my camera vertically sometimes. Great job, please keep them coming.

[@RS.Outdoors]

Great film and lovely shots.

[@jimhamilton8775]

Great video Craig. Enjoyed it. One area of Scotland i have still to visit,

[@MrCochise71]

Beautiful captures.. lovely video yet again.

[@josebainakielorriagaarriet2066]

I liked his reflections on the importance you give to the search of an original composition, rather than to capture the light in a sunset or sunrise. My case is around, but for other issues, I have become fond of the extremes of light, mostly because is the time I have left for work and family reasons, but when I occasionally sell some of my landscapes, for decoration especially, people prefer what I do during the day, I think it's mostly because it's not a race against The sun compositions are more studied, without such haste. But we must recognize that a fiery sky impresses at first glance. Changing the subject, would a video of how the light measures when it shoots in analogy? Remember a video that shot with a yashica mat and used filters, where will it be?

[@davidwang8065]

Great images and I like your sense of humor! Curious to know did you focus one third into the scene or using focus stacking.

[@e6Vlogs]

1/3rd

[@dimitristsagdis7340]

I like the one at 9:32 the best. How do you deal with non 4:3 e.g. the 1:1 square format while shooting? You have stickers at the camera back display, some kind of lens filter-like attachment. Or form factor comes to you afterwards; e.g. at post processing?

[@e6Vlogs]

I shoot square format in-camera. The Olympus has this option. It's NEVER an afterthought!

[@dimitristsagdis7340]

So you can see the square in the viewfinder when you select this option and the rest (edges) go black? By the way, I Didn't say It was an afterthought, just that if you haven't got that option in camera you have to do it afterwards during post-processing.

[@e6Vlogs]

Dimitris Tsagdis yes square in viewfinder and on LCD screen. By afterthought, i mean its pre-planned at the shooting stage, even if i had to crop later, that’s the important thing.

[@dimitristsagdis7340]

Tnx for the clarification.

[@GilbertTV]

10:26 pure genius

[@rottengolfer1]

Ahhhh! You found a solution for your filter holder! What are those little black tabs? Did you have them made for this purpose?

[@e6Vlogs]

Those tabs are the spacers from a LEE 100mm system holder cut in half.

[@rottengolfer1]

Does it vignette at 8mm? I wouldn't use it for sky at that width but it's nice for getting glare off wet rocks.

[@e6Vlogs]

no vignetting

[@rottengolfer1]

Thanks. This is the best solution of seen.

[@jonobrien7789]

I still find myself watching and appreciating your photographs, but what happened to adding the camera settings as you used to.

[@e6Vlogs]

I didn't feel they were needed here. the video had different messages and advice. Exposure settings are irrelevant some times... but they will return.

[@tegser]

Sort out the focus on your camera..I felt dizzy watching it 😁..really like watching your videos 👍🏼

[@robinhorton3251]

Second location much better, like b&w too.

[@peterg3021]

Another great e6Vlog. Your shots are wooing... see what I did there? :-D

[@patyeaman]

A million people show you how to set up your camera for a shot but nobody gives you the workflow for setting up your tripod to capture the image you have in your mind and that you see with your eyes. I am all thumbs with mine and eventually give up the fight and shoot hand held. Please help with a how to tripod video. Tell me the steps to get my camera where it needs to be.

[@e6Vlogs]

What tripod are you using Pat?

[@titouyou1]

Answer to your last question : yes you did :-)

[@bodkinsbestphotography]

Your attempt to inject humor into your videos is quite frankly offputting. When I first found your channel I was happy to have found someone who made videos that were educational and beautiful. You still explain technique and your thought process regarding composition, but please, tone down the goofball humor. It's cringe inducing.

[@e6Vlogs]

Kevan B Be it my narration or my humour, at all times I’m just being myself, so maybe I’m not for you.
