This just shows how landscape photographers must have impressive cardio 😂

[@MadsPeterIversen]

HAha yes! xD

[@JerodBeeson]

The arms flailing about while running to the silly music literally made me laugh out loud 😂👍

[@henrysutton5813]

We need more Mads/James/Nigel content!!! Can't wait for the next few videos

[@L.Spencer]

Love to see their different approaches.

[@CookedLight]

The backing track is brilliant, classic old British comedy tune 😂

[@anisab9506]

You win the just for laughs award, hands down! All three videos were fun to watch. Never seizes to amaze me to see how, in the same location, photographers’ images are all so different.

[@satvikmishra3430]

It's so nice to see photographers having childish moments! Good job there, hopefully your gear is all fine

[@dennishundscheidt5688]

The three stooges, the three musketeers, the three amigos , and coming soon to a theatre near you the Three Photographers. Well done guys hope to see more of your exploits.

[@JessPedersenCPH]

Ha ha 😅 this is comedy and Photography mixed together - what more can you ask for! 🔥 brilliant concept! 🙏

[@windycityred9040]

I don’t know why the music and you running around reminded me of Benny Hill! 😂 For such a limited time, not knowing the area, you sure got some nice compositions.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

You ought to be able to jump over and watch Nigel's video just after mine, James' video will be released at 5 PM CET :) Who won do you think got the best shot? :D

[@showdaKOs]

I like James's shots better but I've been a fan of his style of shooting and editing fong quite a long time now... I didn't know you (subscribed now) but yours are very cool indeed, the rainbow shot is a lot better that whatyou said it would be !

[@TAdams-hx9lk]

Mads Best video; Nigel Best education; James Best pics

[@govinweerasekera]

@@TAdams-hx9lk that pretty much summed up the 3

Such a fun video! Loved the rainbow shot!

[@georgemason2472]

Run Mads run! Why does Forrest Gump come to mind! 🙂

[@JasonLorette]

Mads: Rainbow, Nigel: Windy Road, James: Waterfall/Hut...James did seem to have more options where he went., but you all got something, and in an hour that's awesome! The "running" montage's cracked me up!

[@boburrides]

[@kaneclements7761]

It would have been better with the Benny Hill music.

[@jesusalvarado6074]

Three of my most favorite landscape photographers! What more can one ask! Love seeing your interactions and laughter! Would be awesome to see more of you guys doing this more often!

[@FrerkMeyer]

You made my smile a lot. You have the most comedy talent of all three (ok, James has a really dry humor). I liked you running around. The music was spot on. And props to running, getting good photos (in the rain) and vlogging all the same time. Awesome. Oh, and I think your pictures won.

[@pc1189]

This made my day!👏👏🤣😂 …and they say girls just want to have fun. You fellows had a blast doing this video!

[@mayhamilton6652]

That was great fun to watch all 3 of your videos. Loved it. You're a brilliant photographer but loved seeing the fun you brought to the challenge too.

[@nb7524]

Hey Mads, this video is awesomely hilarious, what an unexpected vlog🤣. You running with that music playing made my morning. I’m guessing that you put a smile on many faces😁. It was so gracious of Nigel to pose for your rainbow shot😂

[@carlomassari7361]

Just saw all three of your videos. All wonderfully entertaining and as usual informative. One thing that sticks out for me as a novice is how in one location there can be so many different styles of shot, very inspiring! .. and on a time challange - thanks!

[@kellyhaller1229]

If the challenge was who had the best video, you would have won hands down! I really enjoyed your antics with the fun music. It was even more comical with Nigel moving so nonchalantly. Lol! But for the best photos, I have to go with James. What fun!

[@PoulPhotography]

Mads EPIC EPIC EPIC FUN!!, This is the funniest most entertaining and at the same time inspiring video on landscape photography that I have seen in a long time😂 . Found myself crying while you were running around looking for compositions, you should do more like this! . The winning shot for me were yours with the rainbow but they all inspired to just get out there and shoot some landscape, Thanks

[@helenperry2111]

All 3 of you together - brilliant! Loved the hut and the water.

[@JaypeaFoto]

What a wonderful way to wake up. I start my mornings with your videos and a cup of coffee. Love the humour and the music! ❤❤❤. The photos were good too. Well done. More videos like this thrown in once in a while would be great.

[@billingalls1940]

Enjoy is an understatement. My wife and I follow each of you guys and look forward to your weekly videos. Hope you're not too pooped from all your running around.

[@williampetersen2899]

Pure joy! Made my day. I couldn't help wondering if Ansel Adams would have done something like this with his landscape photography buddies. Probably would have gotten a hernia lugging around that large format beast!

[@nelehoremans2546]

Nice to see you 3 in a challenge, made me smile! I wouldn't go for a career as a professional runner though 😂

[@lindaw5890]

You've made me laugh out loud a number of times in this video - my co-workers are looking at me a little oddly. ;-) I loved this challenge, you should do more. As usual, every image from each of you is amazing, but since you asked.....sorry, but James wins this one.

[@Rpunkt0815]

Haha, Mads you are a real entertainer 👏🏼😂 That‘s why I love your videos so much - you not only show your beautiful art, you make one feel good after having watched your work! So, thanks a lot (to you Nigel and James, too)!

[@sharylkriete]

Ha Ha! So great to see my 3 favorite photographers in one funny video together! You guys crack me up. Cant wait to view the other videos!

[@DarrenRussinger]

The music to you running was CLASS 😂. That was fun!

[@Kirinukistworks]

My Goodness, that amount of running, and to get back the camera. 😂 Definitely, we got the styles of photographers he, the swift ones, the calm & focused ones, and, the "All is in my brain, its just like at the back of my hands, as everything is fully calculated and going as planned" ones. 😂

[@dillank3240]

It's good to see photography buddies having fun. Thanks to all three of you. I like the crossover videos.

[@frederickmcdonald6636]

gotta be one of the funnest photography videos ever! Thank you for sharing, take care and be safe out there....

[@itchin4adventure688]

Love the extra clips at the end! Lol! Great job you guys rocked and I love your photos as always!

[@mariebird01]

Love, love, love it! I want some of whatever it is you're on! Brilliant video. Thank you so much for sharing it! Haha!

[@tessm3420]

You must be in great shape running through out your video 😂 I laughed a lot..thanks for that ! I love tree photos wish you would have had more tree in that shot with the dead narley tree so the rainbow shot was probably my favorite.

[@eileenconragan1064]

That was hilarious! Love the music choice. I always enjoy watching you guys and learn so much from you with this was just pure fun.

[@shaungoddard8417]

My top 3 watched Landscape Photographers enjoying their craft & making great videos, thank you so much. Its hard to choose a winner to be honest

[@judithhawkes6036]

Loved the challenge - such great fun and fascinating to see 3 such different approaches the the same place. Know the logistics are difficult but would love to see more like this.

[@markhathaway6978]

I enjoyed all 3 videos you guys shared and your video in particular brought out more of your personality which made it that much more entertaining. I appreciate all the work you do to produce your weekly content! Thanks, Mark

[@garrydelday5816]

LOL, I don’t know about Mads, should be called Nuts. Do you always run like that 😂 very funny guys 👍 love the zoomed in shot of the light on the distant fell 👌

[@homeinguelph]

The scenes of you running around were absolutely hilarious!

[@martinsarre]

I laughed at the music and you clowning around. Loved your photos too Mads. KZbin Gold 👏👏

[@denisesavage2382]

That looked so much for the three of you. Well done. I did enjoy your running B roll . .. . everything for you tube! Hahahahaha

[@kev4393]

Fantastic entertainment, great video you must be very fit Mads, love your videos in general but when you three get together they are the best. you three work so well together the results are amazing love your style

[@cherrob48]

Fun to see you enjoy that experience together! And great shots Mads. Will look at Nigel’s later. 😊

[@AndrewFosterGB]

You have youth on your side! Poor Nigel should have given you 45 minutes limit maybe! Great fun to watch, never mind the photos part!😂 (James must be saving the best until last?😉)

[@KijkEenVogel]

Run Mads, run! 😂 Also funny to see you and Nigel struggle so much with finding a good composition in suc a short time, while James just walks around like he always does in his video's, taking pretty pictures underway 😉

[@user-cv2sf7ll4j]

Brilliant, simply brilliant comedy from the 3 best photographers out there!

[@karenbergmann209]

You’re all hilarious! Love watching you have fun!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Hehe thanks a lot, Karen! Happy to hear that 😁

[@iamzod]

Yes more shenanigans! I love the general inherent fun-loving nature of most photographers. We’re all just happy to be out doing it and even better with friends who can just be goofy. It actually helps with creativity imo! This was fun Mads.

[@pricklypigphotography]

Great video, loved watching all three different one. Your energy levels are amazing though 😮

[@TheKentaurion]

Just saw Nigels version of your trip. Can’t wait to see your version. I’m thinking of what kind of compositions you would make. Still 19 hours until this video opens…

[@GOTTHARDGREECE]

Well, probably you are already with fever as your sweat got dried out in a cold day. Hope health to you all . Have a nice flight back. Greetings from Greece

That was a fun video, and great use of the music. Enjoyed the shots, my favorite was probably how you shot the building on the water, nice texture.
