In the last 3 months you have completely changed the way i look at processing. Cant thank you enough! One of if not THE BEST photography channels on the tube hands down! Also your blatant disregard for using a tripod is extremly entertaining to me. 😂🤣

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Haha thanks so much! Really stoked to hear that! 😊😅🙏🏻

[@hughchisholm-ns]

I wholeheartedly agree!

[@stevemeier7876]

@@WilliamPatinoPhotography Yep been taking images and processing for ages......and your examples and explanations made so much sense in processing that I have changed the way I process...

[@brianmasengale1379]

I love watching your videos and I appreciate everything that you do for the viewers thanks

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

That means a lot. Thank you.

[@colinstalker]

The boat has opened up so many more opportunities for you Will . Great edit of a hidden piece of paradise 👌

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Cheers mate 😅👊🏻

[@IamJDMable]

I always learn so much from all your videos man, so so good.

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Glad to hear it! Thank you 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@melissam731]

Absolutely gorgeous place. Any snakes? Love your work.

[@shupingyin8082]

Love it Will

[@jenniferkichinko9125]

This one was super helpful, will! I always love the fresh eyes reminder. I used to be so excited and edit immediately, and now I find it’s better to take a little break and come back. Because sometimes I look at my photo and I’m like, wtf was I thinking?! 😂🤣😆

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Haha, very true. Thanks so much for the support Jen ! :)

[@philipnixey436]

'm loving these boat-assisted explorations .

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Me too! Cheers mate

Amazing - exploring those beautiful nooks !!! How exciting !!! Love the little cascades weaving through

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Endless possibilities. Cheers Iza :)

[@rosssayer6524]

I don’t think William there has been a time when I haven’t got anything out of your videos so thank you for that. The soft light you captured along with the great touch you have with editing worked a gem. Really appreciate you sharing your tips and tricks. Beautiful waterways. Have a good week

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Always appreciate the support of the channel Ross, thank you!

[@wowitsseamus1]

The shot of you shoring the boat is so nicely composed.

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Haha thanks, I liked it too and actually looked at trying to use that for the thumbnail 😅

[@johnniewelbornjr.8940]

Another enjoyable outing and exploration. I, too, often take a bit of time in post, walking away to return later with fresh eyes (tunnel-vision processing is something I've committed before). If a composition doesn't feel right initially, I try not to waste too much time with it, either, for it isn't likely to stop bothering me later, either. I really enjoy seeing how the work flow or compositional process works with others and this went well with my coffee this morning! Seeing all the lush greenery makes me miss living in the southern US at times but spring will eventually arrive here in North Dakota. :)

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Agree about a comp. Best to delete and move on, haha. Thanks a lot John

[@CarlGreenwood]

A great explanation of tonal contrasts and we're about to go into our summer season here so great inspirational images too.

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Thank you Carl!

[@melissahall7009]

Thank you!

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Cheers Mel :)

[@dennisblack4444]

Another awesome video Will, thanks to you I use the brush in ACR all the time and I don't mind experimenting now👍

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Cheers Dennis!

[@GaryCunninghamyouareenough]

Every video you post I learn from 🤯... Brilliant video .. thanks, William 🙏🤘📸

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Thanks Gary!!

GOAT

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Haha thanks so much 😅🙏🏻

[@stevephelan]

Lovely shots Will. Don’t know how you get the greens to look like that, I love them.

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Thanks Steve! Easy enough to do when nature is doing all the work. You can see it in the RAW files haha. Appreciate it mate :)

[@dirkgibbens377]

Primary message here.... you typically can't get out of your car, walk 5 steps and find a brilliant composition. Explore a little bit, and you will be rewarded (and have some fun along the way).

[@mattleccese]

Great video and editing walkthrough 🤙 Can’t say I’m not a little jealous of that landscape you have to explore 😮

[@exploretheway6886]

Really inspiring sir..

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Thank you 🙏🏻

[@BucNasty32]

Love this will. Also so cool to see the boat and how much more places you can venture to.

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Thanks so much legend !

[@gubbinz25]

Thanks Will. Your videos have inspired me to look at the local forests (W Canada) with fresh eyes. I’ve struggled in the past with even getting the colour temp right, and what seems representative in the greens.

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Thank you. Hope you can get some results you’re happy with. Let me know!

[@gurdeepkhosa3055]

Thanks for sharing mate - great tips again and so relevant 🤙🏼 cool ending with the walk away and empty chair 🫡

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

😂😂 that’s a blooper. Thanks for letting me know 🤪

[@gurdeepkhosa3055]

@@WilliamPatinoPhotography 😅 'over and out'

[@TimMer1981]

Beautiful video once again. Please be careful on slippery slopes out in the middle of nowhere though, have you got an emergency transponder in case you slip and become unconscious?

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Thanks. Yeah I’m often miles from civilisation and carry an emergency beacon 💪🏼

[@hubert.fotografia]

Exploration brought to another level ;). On top of that: you may use the boat as foreground in some waterscape shots, when there's not much time to find the proper frame ;).

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Cheers mate! I wouldn't ruin this special wild landscape with anything man made though haha ;)

[@hubert.fotografia]

@@WilliamPatinoPhotography Haha, that's totally understandable but just saying... as an option may fit the wild landscape and using the AI generative tool you may look like an old, wooden boat for example :D. Doesn't it sound ... tempting :D? But something tells me you will go: naaah, not my type of story :D? Just tell me I'm wrong, haha!

[@leannecullen8317]

Great video. I've got to say, I keep shying away from the forestry editing but there is hope 🙂 Thanks for sharing Will

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

It’s probably the most challenging for sure but you know what you’re doing :)

[@light-bringer-studios]

Amazing, love the shot. A somewhat personal question, But within your own collection what are the top 5 shots that just remind you of something personal in your life? Example: your first image that made you go.... hey maybe i could do something with this photography thing? And where you nervous trying to sell your first images? Or what image would you say changed your life?

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Thank you. Might try answer the rest in a future video :) :)

[@jamesf2697]

Great work. Great videos. I just now found your channel, so I'll be following, but I do have a question. Do you use any filters

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Thanks a lot mate. Nah, no filters and no tripod for me. A camera and 3 lenses is all that has been part of my kit for many years now. I'll use a tripod for aurora shooting a couple times a year but otherwise it just stays at home. Regarding filters, I just shoot in golden hours and low light, which means I just don't need to darken the scene down any further. I also like my water having a little texture, so don't really need or like exposures longer than 1-2 seconds. Cheers :)

[@sam2303100]

Nice beard brother.. 👍

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Hha thanks mate!

[@LuckyPiano]

Will, do you have any thoughts on how to balance having wider perspective without overloading the scene when shooting with wide angle lenses?

[@Offaducksback]

Do you often wonder if someone has stepped foot into some of these locations?

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Absolutely. I love knowing that I’ve stood in places were literally no other human has.

[@Offaducksback]

@@WilliamPatinoPhotography that’s awesome. Definitely not something you could experience in the Gong

[@michaelmurphy9846]

yeah, I’ve gotta say , I love using the brush.

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Awesome mate 🙏🏻💪🏼

[@macimages4215]

Ok, now i need a boat. Can you talk to my wife and tell her how necessary for photography it is?
