I only had 30 minutes to capture these telephoto fine art forest photos!

[@erichstocker8358]

What I really like about your videos is the enthusiasm and joy you show when going out of photograph. This is so important to enjoy photography.

[@luizfnetto.03]

The joy with the fog is so remarkable! 😆💚

[@alexandermckown1409]

I always leave your videos in a positive attitude. Your optimism is infectious. Thanks.

[@lennartphotography]

Great conditions and location, I like the cleaner photos of the fir trees without the forground the most. 👌🤩

[@Michal_Kosakowski]

Bike pics are super cool. Great mixture of landscape and sport.

[@lizgibson9897]

You always capture beautiful shots!

[@ImranKhan-zr3fn]

The sports action shots with elements of landscape included in them are just incredible !!

[@lisap5615]

The last photo you shared was my favorite. The color, depth, and textural contrast just sing!

[@peterheasman8883]

As you say, Absolutely Stunning 😀

[@gailmager4147]

The photo on the right. The last photo from ur video also a winner. Great series

[@trevorsneath4665]

Magic place! Always love your photography Mads.

[@luisfigueroa3300]

As always, absolutely beautiful. 😊🎉

[@manajorymanajory7751]

My favorite kind of Landscape with fog!! I prefer the photo on the right (my right).... Love your videos Mads!!

[@carolefults2591]

The one on the right is perfect!

[@josepmbernaus]

Really like the one on the right, without the little tree 😊

[@ChrisHunt4497]

Prefer the shot on the right. Such beautiful shots, so calming, so peaceful. Can imagine them in a bedroom or spa setting. ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@TC_Conner]

Stunning indeed Mads! 💜💜 6:10 in - the one on the right is my favorite. 👍🏼👍🏼

[@aaohknsn]

Wow wow wow. Where to comment first? Definitely the one with the little three! But the last one on 10:22: the colours and the softness are soooo beautifull! Also: 4:40 "absolutely stonnin" somebody's hanging around with Nigel Danson a lot 😁

[@billpanuska5775]

Wow! What a place. I like the left photo with the little tree.

[@fotovylety]

Of the two photos at 6:01 I like the right one more. Excellent use of fog in all the photos.

[@mariamullin4031]

Beautiful shots , I liked all of your photos

[@mikedodsonlabview]

Great video as always! My favorite shot is probably the very first vertical shot you showed.

[@shyamalganguly3598]

Of the two pictures the right side one is far more compelling and more balanced than the left side picture which is chaotically vieing for attention to each cluster of objects in the scene and the the cluster of trees on the right edge of the frame has become a discordant distraction in the overall picture area! The brighter portion of the foreground is a little bit of too bright for both the pictures considering the overall mood of the scene as the brighter color section takes away much attention from the romantic misty mystery of the overall mood! I'm stunned by the portraits and mountain bike sports in the same atmospheric condition!

[@Joakimcomicscenter]

Nice seeing some of your portrait photos!

[@lubos-ro3hy]

Very good video and tips

[@warwickatkinson2558]

Fogs are great. 😀😃😄😁

[@tjsinva]

I suspect you'll be returning to Norway in the future. Carry on. 👍🥂

[@lisha1535]

Lovely work. I noticed the little bird on the top of the tree. In the first horizontal image of pics without vlog. I just continued to learn from this channel. thanks

[@scotty4418]

In terms of your question Mads, I think I preferred the image on the right. With the image in vertical orientation your eyes were more fixed on the main subject in the centre. Very much looking forward to your Greenland video as your social media posts were captivating

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a lot, Jim! And thanks, working on the Greenland video and photos as I write this answer ;)

[@SamandSteve]

Sony 50mm f1.2 is the best glass I have ever used or owned. Use it at every wedding.

[@barbarachamberlain6918]

I prefered the shot without the small tree on the right. Loved the bird in the top of the tallest tree on one of your subsequent shots.

[@mads5000]

Faaack, those mountain bike photos was epic🙀🙀🙀 and I'm not a mountain bike enthusiast...

[@MadsPeterIversen]

@@mads5000 you should have seen the photos from the sport photographers! 😅

[@vf8527]

Hi Mads, great forest photos. Somehow first photo is more attractive to me :-)

[@ThomasSchwarzFotografie]

Very nice conditions with light fog to take some good landscape photos! Hopefully the conditions here in Germany will soon be like there 😉 Thanks for sharing 👍

[@petemellows]

What a location! You'd be mad not to step out :)

[@sveinerikhalvorsen6388]

Great photos both. Handheld both? You are a great motivator! Thanks!

[@Durio_zibethinus]

Come on man! What have you done? With such quality and speed, you have to spare some clients for us 😆

[@scrptwic]

Tamron lenses I bought my first Tamron in 2005 a 75- 300 I still have it what I like about it is its autofocus and had a Apature ring as well . I bought my Tamron 28 - 200 in 2014 my most used zoom lens

[@toddgravenphoto]

Mads I gotta get you to come to Valdez, Alaska someday. Scenes like these are everywhere most of the year. The mist and fog is great here and it's one of the snowiest places in North America. I think you would think this place is EPIC

[@MadsPeterIversen]

@@toddgravenphoto would love to visit Alaska one day! Especially for those trees and mountains 😁

[@paulseymour7485]

Perfer the shot on the right. Great location and video.

[@paulwillmott8931]

Nice video mad’s and great tips. Do you do work on them after in Lightroom ?

[@MadsPeterIversen]

@@paulwillmott8931 oh yes, very much (CameraRaw/Photoshop)

[@MoeHammad-bp9xm]

role model hope one day I can get close to your level

[@joakimericssonphoto]

Nice compositions and mood in the photos, I guess you have taken the finished photos with tripod? I got stuck on reading the 1/5 shutterspeed with that handheld technique will be problems :D Allways great videos mate! Enjoy Norway!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

@@joakimericssonphoto nope, all handheld :)

[@Vaaler.fotografen]

Where in Norway are you? 🇳🇴🙋🏼‍♂️ Nice to see my country in your eyes🤩

[@MadsPeterIversen]

@@Vaaler.fotografen This was Lillehammer :)

[@Vaaler.fotografen]

@@MadsPeterIversen aaa😍great little town😍 you are A fantastic photographer

[@lphilpot01]

Of the two photos the right hand version is stronger. The main trees are better stated and the foreground seems more coherent, slightly less scattered (primarily in terms of color). I don't think the extra small right hand tree in the left hand image adds anything. I really like the green / cyan / yellow / orange color palette.

[@michaelj.1121]

I can envision these images as a tryptich / set of three in a corridor

[@vault-tecrep8565]

Casually doing 1/5 handheld with a telephoto lens Idk if its your hands, Mads, or the a7r5's insane IBIS. Maybe you should be a surgeon haha

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Haha, the IBIS is really, really good in the a7R5 and I've found especially in combination with the Tamron 28-200 :)

[@WDOphotography]

I prefer the shot without the small tree. But also did you get any incorporating the building there where you were at? That place looked incredible too! Also I ❤ the cyclist jumping away next to the tall spruce!

[@thomasocheltree4170]

Left photo👍

[@magicallandscape]

offtopic. Is this the 66 North Tangi GORE-TEX INFINIUM Beanie? Are you happy with it? I bought a sheep wool hat when I was in Iceland. It keeps warm, but it is itching. So I was looking for something good and as you are wearing it almost everytime it seems to be quite fitting.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

@@magicallandscape hey, no, this is the Surtsey model :)

[@lechindianer]

I prefer the right image as well (6:01)

[@jamesmoore9511]

Southern Norway is kinda big - could you name the nearest town? My people came to the US from and some still are in area of Gol.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

@@jamesmoore9511 it was Lillehammer

[@tigiewig]

6:15 the one on the right .

[@mads5000]

Først, velkommen😁 Surprisingly the left one, the right one was maybe a little to tight....

[@kiwidamien]

Why is it a good thing that the Tamron doesn't have image stabalisation? I would have thought that it was okay that it didn't have Image Stabalization because you could use the IS in the camera, but it shouldn't be a benefit that the lens is missing IS.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

@@kiwidamien the lens IS seems to "overwrite" the IBIS. At least with my Tamron 50-400.

[@kencawley3121]

Of the two photos, I preferred the one without the small tree. It seemed to throw the photonoff balance.

[@MusicInLifeMatters]

Hi Mate, how happy are you with your 28-200?

[@MusicInLifeMatters]

BTW if you like sceneries like this you should visit bavarian forest in autumn, id be happy to show you around

[@raycarter4030]

[@imhnd2]

Have you ever thought of offering printed versions of your ebooks? Maybe by request so you're not stuck with a bunch of stock.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

@@imhnd2 thought about it yes, but always dropped it.

[@antoniobastos6335]

The one on the left.

[@erichstocker8358]

You can call the first photo "Marriage" or the "Bride and Groom"!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

That's a great interpretation!
