First Signs of Autumn - Landscape Photography in Torridon

[@wendyshort5972]

Great video Sam. The shots were lovely. Well done for getting out.

[@danevarkevisser4670]

Nice video Sam. Some nice images there too, but the one I loved the most was the leaves in the water. Just beautiful! Also like with the larger landscape images that you didn't feel the need to pump up the colours in the foliage. The greens and foliage looked natural to me, so if your goal was to represent the landscape as you saw it, you did well.

[@BosePhotography]

Thank you very much Dane, I really appreciate that! I do try to keep things looking as natural as possible, so try to avoid adjusting the colours too much! S

Hi Sam:It is great to see that you are back out again. I really like this location and the images that you have captured are stunning. The fall colours in our area of Canada are pretty much completed, and the overall colours were not as great as in previous years. We are still planing our itinerary for our trip to Scotland next May. Keep well. Cheers, Keith & Karen (Canada)

[@BosePhotography]

Thank you both! The colours have just hit their peak here I think, but we've also had a big storm blowing through this weekend, so not sure if the leaves will still be there by the time I manage to get back out again. Typical! I'm sure there'll still be something to photograph though :)

Hey Sam, lovely to see you on here making videos with some more frequency again. Lovely part of the world you live in. You are so lucky. I love your first panel images, and be interesting to see that shot taken over a couple of minutes each frame And then selectively add clarity to the reflections which you will lose. I'll have to get back there and have another shoot with you I reckon. That location at 8:16, wow! There is a calm feel to this video, very cinematic and a lovely opening too. 15:15 you will see some beautiful light emerging on the middle distance hill just by your shoulder between the problem tree and the tree and the right as well. It's awesome to watch that emerge and become more intense. PS, thank you for the plug at the end as well mate. Speak soon. Say hi to Hannah for me. Ewan

[@BosePhotography]

@@EwanDunsmuirImages thanks Ewan! I was back there again a couple of days ago and was hoping to try longer exposures. There was a band of cloud rolling through the background at speed though, which was making the stitching too difficult. Will try again on a calmer day hopefully, although we’ve lost most of the autumn colour already now! Hope all is well with you guys and hopefully speak soon! S

[@DGriffGallery]

Really enjoyed this one, especially because I can properly relate to the location (many thanks again)! We should really even out that situation by getting you more familiar with the lay of the land down here - why not book in a visit? You're welcome any time, mate 😊👍

[@BosePhotography]

Thanks mate! You are 100% right, and I do need to schedule in that visit. Let's make it happen in 2025 (I'll be in touch ;)) S.

Lovely video Sam, thank you. The sense of peace in the landscape really came through, such a lovely area. Thanks for the insights towards the end as well, it’s good to be reminded about staying grounded and remembering why we get out with our cameras. Really liked the pano, it had fabulous detail. For me personally, if I was going to be super critical, I wasn’t totally sure about the right hand edge - it seemed a bit busy perhaps, and somehow kept drawing my eye away. But then I may just have dodgy eyes 🤣. Look forward to your next instalment.

[@BosePhotography]

Thank you very much Martin!

[@Andrew.J.R.Simpson]

Good to see you back you handsome devil 🤣 That's a good looking spot for a pano, I liked the early pano at 2.22 with the rusty colours on the hill in the background! I'll store the location to ask if I'm ever back that way, I hope it all comes together for you this autumn!

[@BosePhotography]

Thanks Andrew! I think that's my favourite version of this shot so far too, but I think there's still some room for improvement. Hopefully I'll have the chance to perfect it this year!

[@kenharnish5778]

It's great to see another video from you. What a lovely area you have. Great images as well. I saw on the Pubcast that you are watching the Expanse. IMHO, it is one of the best sci-fi shows ever. The books are great as well. Good Day.

[@BosePhotography]

Thank you Ken! Great to hear that the Expanse is worth watching! I've only seen the first episode so far, and I've only heard good things. I'm debating putting it on hold until I've read the books though. S

[@kenharnish5778]

​@@BosePhotographyfyi the books extend the story arc further than tv show does.

[@SimonBurnCreative]

Good to see you back out Sam. Lovely video, Lovely pano. I trust both you and Hannah are well and enjoying your life in Scotland. 🙂

[@BosePhotography]

Thanks very much Simon! 🙂 We're both doing great thank you! Loving being in Scotland, the best move we've ever made by far! Hope all is well with you. S

[@SimonBurnCreative]

@BosePhotography Wonderful to hear Sam 🙂

[@DarrenRussinger]

Gorgeous images Sam!

[@BosePhotography]

Thank you Darren

[@thevalleywalker]

Nice relaxing watch Sam... as ever corking images. atb Al

[@BosePhotography]

Thanks Alan! :)

[@digitaliphotography]

Great to see you back out shooting, Sam. Fantastic location, nice pano, and can't wait to see your final print version - if the weather plays the game for you. Hope you're both doing well.

[@BosePhotography]

Thank you Alan, both doing very well thank you! :)

[@RobertMintonPhotography]

Hi Sam, I think that first shot location will certainly come alive in a month given some nice light and Autumn colours. I spent many years since the early 70's using film, so personally i found the first DSLRs to be totally liberating, I won't be going back!

[@BosePhotography]

Thank you very much Robert! The colours seem to be turning faster this year than last year, the birches are already yellow :)

[@RobertMintonPhotography]

@@BosePhotography Yes, here in Wye Valley its defiantly ahead, this year has caught me out in every way, my Blue bells wood visits were all arranged far too late as it was so early!

[@cathoutdoors523]

Hi Sam, some stunning images in a beautiful place. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos You have a new subscriber. 😊👍

[@BosePhotography]

Thank you very much Cath!

[@cathoutdoors523]

@@BosePhotography Your very welcome Sam. 🙂

[@timrosenburgh8597]

Enjoyed the video as usual Sam. What a fantastic place to photograph and i look forward to seeing another video there. Great image's as usual mate. Catch you on the next one.

[@BosePhotography]

Thanks Tim!

[@JamieOverland]

Lovely watch that mate. Such a beautiful spot to have on your doorstep. I really liked that first image you took from the bridge.

[@BosePhotography]

Thanks mate, yeah, I really like that image too! I didn't even notice when I was processing it that it was at ISO 2000 either!

[@robjopling1573]

Lovely to watch another video from you. I know that location and it is a wonderful spot at all times of the year. 😊

[@BosePhotography]

Thank you Rob!

[@trevorburton4429]

Thanks for the video Sam. I got to know the area quite well about 30 years ago but haven’t returned since Covid. You brought back many happy memories and whilst my trips north of the border seem to end in the Trossachs, I must make the effort to see Torridon, Sheildaig, and Lochcarron again. Love the location and the shots you got as well as those taken previously.

[@BosePhotography]

Thank you very much Trevor, I hope you make it up here again soon, it's definitely worth it (although the Trossachs are of course also beautiful!) S

[@davidpearce2981]

Hi Sam hope you and Hannah are well, what the pandemic made me realise was the fact that I’d neglected my own environment, and while we walked the valley shot kept presenting themselves. So the last four years I’ve set about putting things right. Also hand holding the camera has given me so much freedom. Returning to the same locations is good light is always changing with each season.

[@BosePhotography]

Thank you very much David, I've been enjoying your images from your local walks, and I'm definitely a convert to hand-held these days! S

[@gregscott2330]

Hi Sam and Hannah, although few and far between I always enjoy your videos. What I like is you don’t center your videos around the gear but locations and images. But most of all the enjoyment of being there. Thanks for sharing.

[@BosePhotography]

@@gregscott2330 thank you very much Greg, glad you enjoy them when I do get around to posting them! I prefer to leave the ‘gear’ content to others! 🙂 S

[@MartinZelca]

I've not yet visited Torridon. But from Google street views and Google images, it looks like the most magical place in the Highlands. Absolutely brilliant work btw. Always look forward to watching your videos. Take care.

[@BosePhotography]

Thank you very much Martin, it's a pretty special place around here! Lots of little gems around to explore :)

[@stigfloberghagenphotography]

Very nice. Your first signs, here is last signs of autumn 🍂
