My knees are aching from watching all those steps ! Congratulations on those well deserved images

[@StephenMilner]

Thanks you 🙏 I’m still recovering

[@berndvandecruys]

During out trip to NZ we spent a couple of days in the region and not once saw the peak of the mountain. Always covered in clouds. But this video and the photographs are a great way to get a look at it! Thanks for that 🙌🏻

[@StephenMilner]

Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching and commenting 🙏

Nice work and great choice of film!

I was at that very location 2 years ago and stayed in that hut too! Cannot wait to go back when we can travel overseas again.

Fantastic adventure and between photos of New Zealand's nature. It is definitely a favourite place to visit for any landscape photographer. Please keep a spare shutter cable in the bag always.

[@StephenMilner]

Thank you and thanks for the tip 🙏

Hey Stephen, absolutely love the black-and-white images. In the begining i thought color woulb be better, but the images really turned out very great. Espcecially the first image is a very beautiful composition. Top work mate. Enjoy your day. Gretting from Berlin

Thank you Evgeny 🙏

[@GoogleAlvin]

Thanks so much for this mid week boost! I love it. Also nice growth on the beard brotha!

[@GoogleAlvin]

Absolutely stunning images. You convinced to to try slide films. I also really love how you make use of the foreground to lead me to the mountain. Fantastic!

[@StephenMilner]

Thank you 🙏 I hope your slide films turned out well.

[@renepirolt]

Wow, your photographs of the volcano are amazing. Beautiful black and white images! I really enjoyed this video Stephen. Keep up the great work. 👍

[@StephenMilner]

Thank you 🙏

[@MeasuredLight]

Beautiful photographs, Stephen!! I really should shoot some Delta 100, because these look wonderful. I love the detail and contrast in these!

[@StephenMilner]

Thank you, I’m glad you like them. Delta 100 is a nice film.

[@MeasuredLight]

@@StephenMilner I'm going to order some film this week I think, and I'll make sure to add both Delta 100 and Ortho 80! The hardest decision will be which camera to use! I have two cameras that I like to use for landscape photography!

[@StephenMilner]

Nice, interested to know what your cameras are…

[@MeasuredLight]

@@StephenMilner I use a Hasselblad 503CX and a Fujifilm G617 Pro panoramic camera. I also shoot digital with a Fujifilm GFX 50R 🙂

[@steveh1273]

Excellent work. That's a special place, but I wouldn't cherish that climb. Definitely some wall hangers there.

[@StephenMilner]

Thanks Steve 🙏

[@justinreeders2541]

Great images, would love to see the colour shots from the trip.

[@StephenMilner]

Thank you 🙏 Hopefully, Auckland will be out of lockdown soon and I can get some E6 development done.

[@justinreeders2541]

@@StephenMilner Look forward to it. I bet those golden grasses and the belt of Venus will be amazing in colour.

[@selzzaW]

Lovely images.

[@StephenMilner]

Thank you 🙏

[@Stringbob]

Thanks Stephen, always look forward to your videos. You are not helping with my resistance to trying medium format film!!!

[@StephenMilner]

Thank you 🙏 Resistance could cause insanity 😂✌️

[@scottfitzgerald_nz_mtb]

Nice one Stephen hows those steps aye 😁 its certainly a magic spot though 🙌 some great images there

[@StephenMilner]

Thanks mate and thanks for tips on hike

[@JarredSpec]

Saw the shots over on Insta, stunners mate! Great vid too

[@StephenMilner]

Thanks mate, glad you enjoy them.

[@taramcdermott9840]

Stunning photos. You make me want to shoot b&w.

[@StephenMilner]

Thank you Tara 🙏 You should, you won’t regret it ✌️

[@AManWhoWasntThere]

I'm glad I'm not the only one who struggled with this walk. My knees were completely shot after walking back down 🤣. Worth it though for the views!

[@nelsonm.5044]

The same happened to me with my cable release, it was screwed in the camera, I was moving around with the cam and it just snapped like that .... lesson learned I always unscrew the cable before moving around with my cam now

[@StephenMilner]

Thanks for the tip 🙏 I It’s the second time this has happened to me now. I normally remove it but I this time I was rushing around 😂 I managed to remove the broken bit with I micro screwdriver when I returned home. 😃

[@MattWeddis]

Those images are fantastic. Once I get my head around FP4, I’ll definitely be trying Delta. The hike looked tough but worthwhile.

[@StephenMilner]

Thanks Matt

[@EwanDunsmuirImages]

Hey Stephen, Good video buddy. My knees started hurting again just watching that. brought back memories! = ) Sorry I couldn't come with you this time! The mountain is called 'the Cloud Magnet', and lucky even to see that much of it huh!? LOL Awesome pics as usual and these would a nice 'set of three'! = ) Regards, Ewan

[@StephenMilner]

Thank Ewan 🙏

[@senseofeverthing]

You should do it again with some Velvia 100 ;)

[@StephenMilner]

Been thinking about that 🤔

[@ChrisTurnerPhotographer]

Nice work man, it’s a long hike lol

[@StephenMilner]

Thanks mate 🙏 long but worth it.

[@ML-rm3vk]

Sir brilliant photos you have a great eye.try using fp4 with iford perceptual added speed great gray scale and developer is great.cheefs a yank peace

[@tompoynton]

The only time I went to Taranaki the cloud was almost at ground level 😂

[@StephenMilner]

I think I got lucky. Thanks for watching 🙏
