This channel needs more subs.

I concur. Michael feels underrated compared to other photography creators. His content is pure photography, and that's what I think is the best part of his video style. Doing it for the love of photography. Not enough channels do it for the artistic expression.

[@MichaelShainblum]

@@P.W.R. Thanks so much you both, that means a lot. Hopefully the channel can just keep pushing forward :)

[@NatanielsArt]

The sunset gradient with the clouds below is just gorgeous! 👏

[@geomatrix5452]

All of the photos were really super... My favorites were the timelapse videos. Timelapse is the ultimate tool to show the awesome movement!

[@owenfetherston6906]

Your videos feel more so like a meditation session than a typical landscape photography vlog and I love it! I think the moonlit long exposures were definitely my favorite. It's getting me all to excited to go out and visit the oregon coast again!

[@uchucxplor9168]

The truth is that I liked all the images and personally I really like the time lapses. Thanks for your content, I like it a lot, greetings from Mexico

[@peterfritzphoto]

My favourite is your favourite, Michael. Very ethereal. 👍🦘🇦🇺

[@ThastsiT]

This is spectacular. Am overwhelmed right now, breath taking views.

[@cmichaelhaugh8517]

I especially liked the colorful shot of Sutro Tower and the time lapse.

[@add3449]

Amazing images! I want to photograph fog so bad!!

[@MichaelShainblum]

thanks so much!

[@elithunder]

Incredible! And seeing the airplanes on their flight paths like lightning bugs was insane!!!

[@billpanuska5775]

Excellent! I have always respected your photos as consistently beautiful. With this video I add your teaching too. Thanks for explaining things simply and clearly. Very helpful. Applause for this video.

[@MichaelShainblum]

Thanks Bill, really glad you enjoyed it!

[@janewillis2421]

Loved the textured fog with the trees, i found it the most moody 🌿

[@dndparks]

As a San Francisco native I love your fog images! Makes me homesick for sure. Thanks for the explanations on this. I have always wanted to capture this around the Crystal Springs area and now you have me ready to make that exposure. I do love the minimal images with the tower and color. well done as usual!

[@christopherchall7056]

Thank you, Michael. The telephoto minimalist shots. The cotton candy sky with the tower was my favorite!

[@jimbruton9482]

Excellent video Michael!. Yor image at 7:03 is my favorite and best describes the theme of your video.

[@nb7524]

Your shots from this vlog are stunning. This is the best fog vlog that I’ve seen.

[@TheSoftVelcro]

that 20 second timelapse was unbelieveable ... in the same shot/scene of the clouds, did it transition into a longer interval and slower shutter speed.. unreal!

[@JohnSmith-rk6jt]

Time lapses were awesome. The moon shots were cool to.

[@sptnk87]

Film @15.07 was great, sucker for film photography! The minimalistic shot of that tower was great too. You live in an amazing part of the world.

[@robbieallcock]

The colourful minimalist shot - love those colours! 😍 👌

[@outdoorsinontario3037]

Very nice mike! I like the tower shot. Different style of video. I like!

[@ulrichschardt2464]

The Film shots are my favorite 😍

[@elliswoodphoto]

Amazing video and beautiful shots Michael!

[@gillainroger5997]

J'adore votre façon de visionner la nature et d'essayer de la fixer en photos, personnellement les bords de mer (Océan) que j'ai à portée d'objectifs en Bretagne (Françe). Au plaisir de suivre vos post très intéressant et constructif. Merci à vous et bonne continuation.

[@kylemeshna]

Turned out so great man! Super fun to relive the day through your lens. Let’s do this again!

[@carmenjgarciap8153]

Love all of them. The one with the orange light looks like a dragon coming out of the fog.

[@MichaelShainblum]

Thanks Carmen, that's an awesome take on the image!

[@Ivan-xg1zo]

Loved it all but I had a preference for the later moon shots and film shots

[@curtlewis3446]

I love your style of photography. The time lapse videos are amazing and mesmerizing to watch. Very hard to pick a favorite. Thanks for sharing.

[@MichaelShainblum]

Glad you like them, thanks so much!

[@brandonmjohnsonphotography]

I am so glad someone told me about your channel. Those are absolutely shots. I agree with you that your favorite shot is mine too. Great work!

[@MichaelShainblum]

Which image from this video ended up being your favorite? 🤔

[@P.W.R.]

Gotta be the full scene with the blanket of fog across the landscape for me. The moonlit fog created such an amazing glow. It also looks like some of that moonlight reflected back into the atmosphere, creating a "haze," like it was highlighting the moist air above the thicker fog bank. The trees isolated in the fog make it look like a floating island. Such a surreal photo. Another banger, Michael. More fog photography good sir!

[@leojphilip732]

The colorful minimalist and the long exposure with the tree sticking out were simply superb!

[@coeurvision33]

The film one is my favorite but they're all very nice ! Thank you for sharing theses beautifull scenes of nature !

[@ddki9094]

I liked all of them but I really liked the film image; that one stood out to me.

[@davebryer6133]

It is impossible to choose a favorite, I am always amazed by your fog photos and time-lapse, fog in my part of the world is not at all common, but you have inspired me to get out every time there is fog.

[@alanclark9691]

Really nice video shot in fantastic weather conditions. My favorite was probably the time-lapse that captured the conditions superbly.

[@justinreyes9899]

Dang Shainblum and Meshna!! Goat lineup haha 🐐🐐

[@QuanTranVisuals]

It is really a bliss to watch your photography vlogs, Michael. Thank you, Sir.

[@tompetersphotography]

I can’t pick one buddy! The moonlight images are pretty sick!

[@garyburleson1010]

Wow!! What an incredible documentary on fog photography. Thank you.

[@IanBarrowPhotography]

Fantastic video with top class images. Couldn’t choose a favourite as all brilliant. The time lapse sequence was just mesmerising. 🙌🙌

[@LailaKristinSkauge]

Absolutely love those long exposure shots!

[@KleineNadi]

So beautiful! My favorite shots from this video are long exposure on film

[@Heidelsheim11]

Absolutely mesmerizing images. I love your videos, your calm voice and the way you explain your technique . Wolfgang

[@mikekinney1369]

Loved them all!

[@bugwalks3897]

Great stuff, Michael!!

[@michaelr.reynolds253]

Michael. Have always enjoyed your fog images and Timelapse. As a Bay Area resident I’m so used to the fog and the view from Mt. Tam above the fog line really showcases its beauty. I really enjoyed the smoother image with the centered house light. Thank you for sharing your tips on longer exposure. Best regards.

[@hmdre206]

Magical will be an understatement always loved your shot. Amazing video

[@josephcampisi5401]

All beautiful Michael. I think your favorite is mine as well.

[@YangdupLama13]

Beautiful photography Sir.. Lot of love from Darjeeling, India❤❤❤

[@ChrisPattonPhotography]

Really like seeing your vlogs from this location, enjoyed seeing your process. Awesome images as always 👌

[@j16m02]

Really mind blowing images Michael. I particularly liked the time lapse stuff. Very nostalgic for me. I spent 4 yrs at the UCSF Parnassus campus so Sutro Tower poking through the fog was a constant backdrop for those years. I lived 35 yrs in the Cupertino area and spent many an evening up in the Russian Ridge Open Space looking down towards what I think was Pescadero, photographing the fog. I wish I'd seen this video 15 yrs ago. LOL. So, thanks for this.

[@teresasmith3461]

Your videos with the music and your narration are inspiring and always with great information. My favorites are the ones with some texture but I also like the minimalist photo with the soft pastel colors.

[@robvercouteren]

Awesome images Michael, i like the "colored" one and the shot at 13:49. Besides that you gave wonderfull tips to photograph above the fog.

[@MilenMladenovReSco]

My favorite image is at 7:00 - this one is absolutely stunning. All of the shots were awesome though, even the film ones!

[@photosonthebay9341]

Excellent vid. Love watching your content.

[@reeda6able]

I love the colorful minimalism!

[@crdsplyer]

Sutro tower stands out as my favorite. I'd say the second best is the moonlit fog with the exposed treeline. That one wants my to go down and light paint the trees red while you snap the shot. I think all of these pictures are amazing.

[@daveh8679]

Amazing photography. 10/10 👍👍

[@nicksaunders106]

Has to be the video shots, just awesome!

[@pattymattes7124]

It's hard to pick but I do love the textured shots and the moonlit ones. Thanks for the tips and for sharing!!!

[@emi1866]

you have just earned a sub! keep up the good work

[@uncletgt]

Thank you so much👌😊 I learned so much

[@Marquess271]

Hey Michael, personally for me your videos are the ones I'm looking forward the most! Everytime you upload a new video I'm so super excited. You are really the first content creator I would think about spending money on Patreon. It's just the whole package; your calming voice, the music you are using, the style of photography - everything is just a pleasure. In this video I liked the amazing timelapses at the end the most. Recently I'm trying timelapses myself. but for me it's hard to find good compositions and predict interesting movements in clouds etc. Also my favorite picture from this video was the one at 13:33 - it somehow reminds me of christmas. Like Santa is sitting in his house in the woods to the right, where just the two lights are and everyone else in the village is at home in the freezing winter night (even though it is fog and not snow). I really liked it a lot and thanks so much for your work!

[@Chippeeful]

Excellent video, as usual. All images were gorgeous but I loved the minimalist one with the tower poking out. The colors were magical!

[@berniestang2616]

Love them all …. SUBSCRIBED !!!!!!

[@tobywoolgar9517]

Last couple of moon shots on your film camera much more challenging getting such a nice photos which looks just as good as the digital shots.q

[@dennisstanworth1718]

Love this. I'm waiting for the temps to heat up and compress the fog a bit. Driving down from Nevada City to capture this as soon as conditions are right. Thank you.

[@berniestang2616]

Omg fantastic…. I am new to this . I need to try this . Love your videos .

[@rosedoggydog]

Michael, I love your videos. They are very informative and well thought out. I enjoy your work, you are a very talented artist.

[@garrydelday5816]

All beautiful images Michael, you are so lucky to live where you get the opportunity to get such shots. The Timelapse’s were mesmerising 👌 great tips and advice too 👍

[@MichaelShainblum]

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks so much Garry!

[@Jason-xy1mw]

The image at 14:00 stands out to me...it reminds me of waves breaking. I seem to be drawn to images of things that remind me of other things.

[@jefersondantas20]

Fantástic !!

[@kaosimagery]

Excellent work here, Michael, nice job.

[@danapatterson4076]

Your favorite still shot is also mine, but I’m a sucker for a Timelapse and these were STUNNING! 🤩 Love the fog waterfalls and really enjoyed this video, as always.

[@poochie719]

This is just the video I needed to begin to drag me out of my photography funk. Just soooooo inspiring. Now, just for some fog and clouds 😅

[@TheOnlyGuess]

It's just amazing and relaxing watching this awesome video.

[@Kresho.]

[@jeremibren5565]

Awesome video n thanks for the tips

[@naturalflow157]

This video is exactly what I needed. Truly inspirational to see how you guys managed to create something so beautiful and special. I've been following the channel stories you bring for us to experience, and this one is truly one of the calmest and most inspiring. Thank you for bringing us these stories and wishing you the best.

[@syedairsahashmi692]

You videos always help me out in landscape photography and todays tips what you gave about long exposure are dam helpful, thank you Mr. Shainblum and I love all your clicks, it is pretty hard to find the favorite one but the texture shoot 15:18 and the film shoot 18:26 are the best. Further your time-lapses always mesmerize me

[@michealpociecha8351]

Wow. Those videos and photos are amazing. Thanks.

[@kathrynmceachern9503]

I absolutely LOVE the time lapse photos, you have such a beautiful way of capturing the little things in nature that make life worth exploring. Thank you for these informative vlog posts. Always appreciated, very inspiring.

[@saeidrostami]

All the pictures were great .💪👏

[@brianlemke6017]

Terrific tutorial. Great shots.

Thanks Brian!

[@wendynewing8834]

This is so incredibly beautiful. Thank you.

[@backstreetangel2006]

Always a treat to see your fog imagery, bravo !!!

[@MichaelShainblum]

thanks so much for watching!

[@richardpesce5325]

Incredible Photography, especially the time lapse! Thank you for your efforts Michael.

[@shahriar_wayne]

serene & peaceful 💕

[@journeytoaphotograph]

The film shot at the end was awesome, the desaturation compared to the digital shot really suited the composition (which ya gotta call 'The Dragons Eye'. Thanks as ever for the tips, the awesome timelapses and of course the inspiration, your films make me want to get out and shoot :-)

[@Jeff-jg7jh]

That's a lot of fog. One of the first shots with that very pointed tree above the fog. My eye just went right to it.

[@larrysalaets7088]

You're a true artist!

[@myIsabella53]

Awesome video. I love the moonlit and film shots but in the end all of them are equally stunning. Saved this to watch again and again. You are inspiring. Fyi when it comes to pre-planning, I really resonated with the "just f*ing go method".

[@Tastewithnewdrinks]

Great review.

[@acexl]

Thanks michael, that was really inspiring!!! i gotta say i think my fav. were the textured shots along with the time lapse, i love fog and the way that it moves!!! thanks for all the useful tips :D

[@dvohwinkel]

colorful minimalism

[@dvohwinkel]

@Michael_Shainblum think you have a scammer posing as you.

[@amritgurung1473]

I was really waiting for this episode. Thank you so much.

[@MichaelShainblum]

Hope you enjoyed it, thank you :)

[@germancreatives88]

Perfection!

[@TravelerWalk]

beautiful

[@jordidetemple]

Really difficult to choose just one image 😄. They are all fantastic. I really enjoy watching your videos, they are really relaxing because of the calm way you explain, the selection of music and the way you edit the video. Fantastic job Michael. I've been following your work since around 2011 with your San Diego timelapses. You are quite an inspiration!

[@jenniferkichinko9125]

Such an amazing video, Michael! Definitely inspiring me to get up there this weekend if the fog is good!

[@keshavsingh5968]

Just mesmerizing shots

[@nibun]

So much inspiration in one video. Credit you for getting me started on fog photography.

[@MichaelShainblum]

that's awesome to hear, really glad you enjoyed it!
