Photographing A Sunny Morning In The New Forest [Mike Browne Photo Biker 1]

[@bikentrike]

Terrific video Mike! You've done them in the past, so it's nice to see this style again. This is the kind of instruction that helps folks find pictures in their own area. People don't need to go to exotic areas to get great pictures.

[@MikeBrowne]

Thanks Jim. I'm editing the next one now. It'll go out in 7 days... MIKE 🙂🙏

[@podhoncisty]

Yes, it's true, a motorcycle and photography is "blend made in heaven" 🙂 Motorcycle and camera are my psychotherapy. Beautiful video Mike, thank you very much 👍

[@MikeBrowne]

Thank you @Podhoncisty x ... MIKE 🙂🙏

[@lee.is.here1]

This is probably one of the best photogaphy vlog video I've watched here in youtube in a while. Because this is about getting out there and getting the right picture. Thanks Mike. I strongly suggest you do more of these because I thoroughly enjoyed the video. I dont think there has been a video done in this format. Its pretty cool! Also somewhere around 2011 i think i started following you and I have been here ever since just being your student all the way. I sincerly have to thank you for teaching me through youtube here. I always felt inspired and very cozy for some reason watching all your videos. Cheers!

That was brilliant Mike, a real trip down memory lane for me, as I grew up in the area and my first motorcycle rides were very similar, back in the late 1970s.

Agreed with regards to the back roads, much of my best work was found on the back roads. With regards to riding motorcycles, no thanks, I had a bad accident many years ago...no desire to get on one again. Oddly enough, I will jump out of a plane...go figure that one out.

A few weeks ago I also took some photos of the Watch House at Lepe. Like you, I started on the eastern side, then walked to the western side. I set up my tripod on the rocks to take a long exposure, a couple of young women arrived and sat themselves right in front of the building. One would have thought they might have waited for me to finish, but no they felt more important. I have yet to return and get that shot.

[@MikeBrowne]

🙂🙏

[@robertleeimages]

The little house at the start definitely has a nicer photographic path leading to it from the side of the 2nd photo and would also work with afternoon sun hitting it, and I'd say far better than the morning sun did in the first photo from the boring path side so it's a win win to be there to get an image like you did looking into it with sunburst or if like me prefer the late afternoon sun

[@MikeBrowne]

So many options ey Rob? The more you know the better it gets

[@cornwall_in_Squares]

Brilliant excellent advice and tour round some of my favourite places. If still there the classic car showroom in Beaulieu at night makes for some tricky but good shots.

Great video series! Thumbs up! I've been neglecting my photography hobby (EOS90, various lenses, filters and other gear) for years already and only recently discovered a strong desire to ride motorcycles (I immediately completed the license extenstion and bought me a sports tourer ;) ). These videos have now spontaneously revived my old enthusiasm for photography and I hope to be able to implement it in a similarly beautiful way as soon as possible, even if I lack a lot of practice now and feel unsure about the amount of equipment to take with me.

[@MikeBrowne]

Thanks Max - that's brilliant. Delighted to have played a part re-igniting a couple of your passions. What to take? As little as possible. I use my 18-55 lens more than anything else but it's handy to have a longer one too. I like the mirrorless system because it's small... MIKE 🙂🙏

@@MikeBrowne Cool.. and you're welcome... Btw. been watching your videos for years already and many of them were very informative and educational for me as (passionate) amateur... I'll stick to my EOS90D for another while I think before consideriung to go wireless... I just have too much equipment meanwhile ;) Do you have Filters on your lenses by default or carrying with you during such trips (e.g. UV)?

[@maxx2174]

@Mike Browne Hm, you think the Canon 18-135mm with installed CPL will be OK to cover most situations? That would be the most minimalistic setup I could imagine ;) If it goes well and my enthusiasm stays alive I might go for one of those infamous super travel zooms like the Tamron 16-400mm...

Very enjoyable 24 minutes and 15 seconds, Mike! What is obviously missing from my camera gear is a motorbike, I shall make enquiries. - This was nearly as good as being there myself, a guided tour with history and photography lessons thrown in. And you showed the importance of wearing sturdy trousers. - Thank you for putting this together, and as you said: "Let's do this again, soon!" 🙃

You do realize that to an American like myself, although these houses are very beautiful and idyllic, they also evoke another reaction. Pretty much every British horror film we've seen from the past 75 years has taken place either in a quaint rural home similar to these, or large manor. Owing to this, when we see these little villages, we're thinking "Ah, how beautiful - probably haunted, though... Those are the kind of windows faces look in at..."

I do the same Mike ride around on my bike(Triumph tiger 800 2014) looking for photo shots riding bikes and photography, it don’t get better than that!

[@MikeBrowne]

Hey Neil. Tiger 800's are a lovely ride. One of my buddies has one and I confess I was surprised how got it is... MIKE 🙏🙂

[@MikesVoyagesAndDrives]

I hope you didn't scald any noble body parts with the coffee :-D. Although I am not a biker, I like this combination of riding and photographing very much. Thank you very much for this!

[@MikeBrowne]

Thanks Roi. Luckily the double lined waterproof trousers saved me.. ...MIKE 🙏🙂😆

Being on continental Europe, the bike ride is terrifying! It is just so odd to see driving on the left side of the road - it is just not right... 😅

As a biker of 44 years I found myself watching the road conditions more than the video 🤣

[@MikeBrowne]

I know exactly what you mean Nigel... MIKE 😆

[@MikeBrowne]

Hope so Sean. I can't imagine how frustrating it must be for you buddy... MB

Love your stuff! But as an American I can't help but think. OH NO! He's on the wrong side of the road.

[@MikeBrowne]

Thanks Chuck. You and many others bro.. ... MIKE🙏😊
