Brilliant

[@photographyforenjoyment]

Thank you!

[@SeamusMcNeil]

Really enjoy your channel Alan. Your channel is for one thing - enjoy yourself. Your not telling us what we are doing wrong, you are not telling us what gear is wrong, your simple message is have fun and enjoy photography. I work overseas but when I am back in the UK I never rent a car and always use public transport. Thank you so much for creating a channel all about getting outside and just stopping to smell the roses. All the best and looking forward to seeing more videos from you. Cheers...Jim

Thank you so much Jim! Before I started doing this I got frustrated that so many photography channels did concentrate a lot on equipment. YT has become a 'reviewers dream' for a lot of manufacturers! So yes, to me its about getting out there with whatever gear you own, looking for photos but also enjoying the environment.

Can't decide whether I prefer the color to B&W. Nice shots all the way around.

[@photographyforenjoyment]

In all honesty, neither did I..! Thanks for commenting, always appreciated.

you picked my favourite Beatles song (along with When My Guitar Gently Weeps) so thank you 🙂 fascinating area and I loved the intro where you faded the old into new. it's not changed. also fascinating to hear about salt production in the area. Anglesey (my ancestral home on my maternal side) is now world famous for its sea salt. only one criticism - the video is too short Alan!!

[@photographyforenjoyment]

Yet another reply vanishes, wish I knew why! Anyway, thank you Nick. It is an interesting spot and knowing about the salt works came as a surprise to me as well! As for Anglesey Sea Salt, I believe the couple behind that company also started the Sea Zoo, which we frequented a lot back in the 80's when my kids were young.

Hi Alan. Looks like you have a really interesting channel. New subscriber! Thanks for sharing. I always like the commentary from ex professionals. Looking forward to checking out your catalogue.

[@photographyforenjoyment]

Well thank you so much! One of these days I must get around to making playlists, so thanks for both subscribing and reminding me 😁

[@MoeMorales]

Good set Alan. Great backdrop. Cheers

[@photographyforenjoyment]

Thank you Moe and best regards to you and family 👍

As you know, I don’t really like Nick, but this time I have to agree with him, the video is too short. Very nice images, you definitely have an eye (or two) for those detail shots, and I like how you got rid of that blue “thing” for the black and white conversion of the bricks. Be well.

[@photographyforenjoyment]

I see, you guys are ganging up on me now 😂. "Must try Harder" often appeared on my school report as well Enrique so I will try my best in future! Stay safe and well my friend.

[@TC_Conner]

Enjoyed this vlog Alan. 👍🏼👍🏼 What is the size of the border you use on your photos?

[@photographyforenjoyment]

I usually apply borders using Nik Collection from DXO once I have completed edits. I wish I could tell you the pixel widths but I use image border style 14 and reduce the width by 20%

[@TC_Conner]

@@photographyforenjoyment I see, you don't use Photoshop then?

[@photographyforenjoyment]

I tend to edit photos first in either On1 or Affinity to get them the way I like, and then batch process them in Nik Collection to add the borders; I also occasionally make use of other effects filters in Nik and/or convert to mono in the Silver Effects software from the same people.

[@TC_Conner]

@@photographyforenjoyment Interesting workflow.

Hello Alan, a nicely paced video, I thought it was just about the right length for the the information conveyed, my only criticism and this is just my slow processor of a brain, I would liked to have to seen the photos at the end for just a few seconds longer and I also like to see the lens, aperture/ shutter information, with enough time to read it, which I think is educational when viewing a picture. Oggie Oggie Oggie, isn't that some sort of football chant, is there a connection to this place? Cheers Alan, keep well..😃

[@photographyforenjoyment]

No exact connection to this location Steve as far as I know. It is a chant and it's usually followed by "Oi Oi Oi". I'm considering putting more exposure/lens information up in future videos Steve, maybe not for run-of-the-mill shots but definitely for ones that are more extreme. I will gladly leave the stills on screen for longer (as long as they aren't rubbish!).

[@stevek.456]

No worries Alan, you do your videos as you see fit, in truth if I want to see a picture for longer I can always play youtube at slower speed, I'm probably just slower than some at processing what I see, when my wife looks at the TV guide on TV, I'm sometimes amazed at how fast she can see whats on, I can't keep up with her. 😃 , cheers 🍻.
