Photographing WATERFALLS | BIG old trees | CARMANAH WALBRAN

[@johnnycampos6992]

These tutorials are like being there in person, taking the photo and learning according to the circumstances which parameters to adjust. Excellent way to teach. Thank you very much

[@AndrewStorey]

Wow! That photo that you showed at 12:30 is wonderful.

[@bloneric]

Thank you very much Adam, this is by far one of the best videos I have ever watched in any photography related youtube channel.

[@roddy46198]

Your no slouch behind the camera, what’s refreshing is your casual nature and honest approach that inspires even the seasoned photographer. 👍

[@1young-geezer]

The waterfall pictures: such beautiful texture in the water, and the softness of the mist, so magical, it's great to see what happens w/ the ND filters and selection of shutter speed. I'm envious - no real water features in New Mexico, it's a dry state, of the no water kind (Utah is alcohol dry-ish).

[@Hirsutechin]

Always enjoy seeing the raw versus processed images, gives a better insight into what your intention is and more ideas for what can be done with my own. Hope you enjoy the trip with Alister and Tom!

[@tompetersphotography]

Stunning shots matey and very cleverly constructed with the two shots!

[@RussWeymouthPhotography]

Beautiful waterfall photos. Over here in the UK the ferns are rampant, up to six feet tall. We had a really warm, dry spring, they seem to have enjoyed the conditions and have grown in abundance.

[@niftytwo]

Beautiful composition Adam. I learn a lot from your tutorials.

[@jsimes1]

Another fantastic vlog. Stunning images and the b-roll stuff is breathtaking as usual ... even if you did crash your drone! 😁 We were eaten alive by 'skeeters last weekend on our hike up the marshy river. I barely got any drone shots and no photography ... my wife was having none of it! 😁 I'm always amazed at the ease with which you take your shots! Thanks again Adam!

[@thenewbrunswicklandscapeph6614]

Excellent Woodland photography as always Adam! First shot looked really good

[@jordanboze113]

Would love to see some of those RAW and edited photos side by side. Great great stuff though! This has been added to my list of places to go!

[@rodscherich9973]

A beautiful video tutorial! Thanks for sharing Adam!

[@keithtruman7422]

The waterfall and the swirls image is just amazing Adam

[@klaus_s]

Always pleasure to see your videos😎🙏👏

[@jimowens8105]

I will never tire of waterfall photography. Each one has it's own personality which changes with the flow of water and the seasons. You definitely know just how to portray each one to bring out its best in any given circumstances. In my area it is relatively flat and it takes a coupe of hours behind the wheel to get to the elevation changes needed to create waterfalls. Ah but it is worth the drive. Thanks again for a worthwhile lesson and demonstration on "How it is done properly".

[@davidstevenson1950]

The first photograph in the forest is just magical. More like this please! The waterfall shots are also beautiful, especially the second one. As always, I enjoyed your video; it's become a bit of a treat to expect a new Adam Gibbs video every weekend.

[@volodymyrcuza9994]

Thanks a lot for the great video! The photographs were beautiful too!

[@Highdepthfilms]

Great Video Adam, Your work here was great, loved the waterfall shot. Keep up the good work.

[@stevejordan2840]

The waterfall with the swirls is one of my all time favorites.

[@rossmcleavy453]

Great Adam as always !! thanks again for sharing

[@JohnDrummondPhoto]

I could watch your videos for hours. So peaceful and relaxing. I love your waterfall images; I so wish I could see and shoot in Carmanah myself. Hopefully the border won't be closed forever!

[@chrishaverty5201]

Its just that easy! Thanks for the video.

[@Loopsrainforest]

that last shot of the waterfall was awesome Adam! I loved the the layers of rock & water.

[@chipsfalling8625]

Thank you for sharing Adam.

[@robertwhitemoto]

Great shots Adam!

[@martinsarre]

Great photos, and clear explanations, keep up the good work

[@brendaengland4692]

Beautiful images. Thanks for walking us through your set up and thought process while shooting. It is very helpful.

[@itaylorm]

Wonderfully inspirational

[@EdwardKilner]

Lovely sunny Saturday morning west of Toronto, good coffee, and a relaxing video visit with you in a beautiful forest. Nice work, as usual. Stay well, looking forward to your next episode.

[@steffenandersensahl9443]

Wonderful video and images! I like the sign 'Respect your Alders' with two big nails into it :-). That is pretty much how I'm respected also :-)

[@PentaxLife]

Great shot as all ways

[@nickbristol3457]

Adam, As always for me this was wonderful to watch. I appreciate your quiet and relaxed approach to photography. It's like you really enjoy it and I know that you do. Thanks, Nick

[@alannorthdevonuk763]

Brilliant images, waterfalls and pools always fascinated me. I'm off doing a waterfall workshop on Sunday at Spekes Mill Mouth Waterfall here in North Devon, must see if I can get some bubble swirls - they could be my latest addiction. Thanks for the video.

[@michaelhull1813]

The opening sequence was simply incredible.

[@nikolatesla9384]

Will always appreciate the time you spent explaining your creative process on site. I have tried to rationalise whats on my head and i have a hard time trying even in there worse if i try to verbalise it. Thank you

[@haroldmassey5966]

You have such great venues with the ferns,waterfalls etc. I loved the waterfall and the big tree compositions. Very instructive on how you set the scenes up. Keep up the great work and keep the video’s coming. Thanks Adam.

[@charliepackard5418]

I do like the way you extract such good compositions from the chaos in these old forests. The blending of the waterfall image was also very successful.

[@MattSchulze]

Nice job on waterfall swirls, that composition was my favorite.

[@LisaFrostPhoto]

Stunning photography Adam! Absolutely love the first compositions of the waterfall, and I like the sapling you weren’t keen on: I think it created a nice balance and I like it’s furry branch.

[@zigatretjak75]

Yep, easy after a few decades

[@markjacksonphotos]

Just a superb video, been out into the woods today myself and yet you made it look so easy. A skill set that produces lovely work.🙂👍

[@GaryTischer]

Love the waterfall shots. Sometimes less is more .... in terms of water. Thanks :)

[@mikehirst3294]

Thanks for another amazing video Adam. I really enjoy your explanation and analysis of each shot.

[@juneharris2058]

I love the tones of your waterfall shots..Could you maybe show your processing of them on your membership page? Gorgeous.

[@sloemo4024]

You probably already know this, but if you shoot raw + jpeg then you can set a crop in-camera. I’ve been doing this regularly which really helps me compose. An additional benefit of shooting raw + jpeg (fine or super fine) is you get a more detailed image playback which helps if you want to look back and check focus

[@davidposaas7350]

You always get fantastic images Adam! The video was richly blessed with them. Thanks for the instructive and informative lesson. The waterfall images are stunning.

[@PhotoTrekr]

Love the whirlpool in the waterfall shot.

[@MaliDaviesPhotography]

One of your best! A dream of a location! As always Adam, really enjoyed. Stay safe. 👍 Sithee!

[@macjeff01]

Hi Adam. Love your work but miss some of your antics with Gavin. Question - is it possible for you to post the both pre and post processed pictures together at the same time in a side by side format. I find it hard to study what you did to the finished work by bouncing back and forth along the timeline. Keep teaching, I learn a great deal every time I watch you.

[@jimgraves4197]

Beautiful

[@sk8freshcst]

Love your vids how you walk thru every step of taking the photograph. keep it coming!

[@jamesjohnston6765]

If it was just that easy, everybody would be doing it. Well Adam, if I'm ever able to get back into Canada I would love to hike there with you.

[@26jmcjames]

I absolutely love the image of the waterfall Adam, great watching the image taking shape and your thought process. Thanks again.

[@sandrokich]

Great!

[@charlenenagel7962]

Such a beautiful video Adam! The waterfall photo is absolutely stunning. I really love your music selections for this too. Thank you!

[@RickMentore]

A photo God lives among us!

[@LukeOrwin]

Great video Adam. Look forward to seeing the video from this week. Stay safe.

[@KurtBaumanMobilePhotography]

Wonderful video, I find your videos so enjoyable and relaxing to watch. That waterfall looked so good 👍

[@peterleibundgut2349]

Very enjoyable, very educational; tresmedous as somebody would say. Thanks and greetings out of Japan.

[@keithsandercock1412]

In the last photo of the ferns the only thing that I would take issue with is your commitment to the ISO of 100. To eliminate any leaf movement you would have benefited from a slightly higher shutter speed at the 'cost' of a slightly higher ISO. Using your GFX-50R at ISO of 200 or even 400 would have had little discernible difference in image quality.

[@bradleyk2966]

As always, your videos are an inspiration to watch. Thanks to your work, my bucket list of places to visit - and photograph - on the Island (I'm a Mainlander) continues to grow.

[@borissmit7112]

That was the most beautiful picture of a waterfall I have seen!

[@martyd5819]

Leafy goodness. 🙂

[@pattymattes7124]

Beautiful!!! Thanks for sharing. I know about mosquitoes too. I was out at night taking images of Comet Neowise and I got bit all over my legs. I forgot to put on long pants because it's been so hot. Oh well, long pants and Deet for the next trip at least for me.

[@Bimmly]

I do so love the feel of your videos, the atmosphere is subtly surreal, and the insight to the way your mind works and thinks about compositions is so inspiring.. thanks :-)

[@Dumontjon]

I've walked passed that fallen cedar beside the walbran creek about 100 times, and never thought of that composition. 👍

[@ellyelzinga01]

I love that first waterfall image!! The other pictures are breathtaking too, but the first waterfall one is my favorite!

[@maartenschot]

beautiful photos, almost meditative video. Perfect.

[@IanWilkinson]

_"Just that easy, folks!"_

[@colmeg]

Beautiful location and captures. Cheers!

[@HenryTurnerphoto]

Absolute class as always Adam and lovely soft light in that first image!

[@kieranwilliam7535]

You probably dont give a damn but does anyone know a trick to log back into an instagram account?? I somehow forgot the login password. I love any assistance you can give me.

[@fisheralaric692]

@Kieran William instablaster :)

[@kieranwilliam7535]

@Fisher Alaric Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site through google and Im trying it out now. Takes a while so I will get back to you later with my results.

[@kieranwilliam7535]

@Fisher Alaric It worked and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy! Thank you so much you saved my ass !

[@fisheralaric692]

@Kieran William Glad I could help xD

[@Mrbraqe]

I think it's time you make a video review to talk about Fuji and Nikon and which one you like.

[@steffore1]

Excellent images Adam 👌🏾

[@eddiedeane7769]

Excellent video and images as always Adam .

[@petercseszarik6552]

Awesome and beautiful pics as always!

[@andymacdougall6593]

That hit the spot Adam. Just the sort of photography I was missing. Loved the waterfall variations and your description of your thought process building the images. Surprised how dark you exposed for the waterfall behind the 10s swirls - but I live and learn because it came out excellently. Beautiful stuff and inspiring.

[@chris_perea]

absolutely beautiful scenes adam! i especially love the first photo with the fallen tree🙌🏽the area you are in looks just absolutely fabulous! stay safe!

[@599miata]

Great vlog Adam.

[@ToddHiggins]

I liked the little tree in the first shot. With the branch sticking out to the left it sort of made a "frame within the frame" (if you like that sorta thing.) Thanks for the videos, they always reminded me to really consider what I include in my frames, and why.

[@chrisroot7182]

Once again some great images from that area! Cheers!

[@cristibaluta]

2 down, 2 more left to take a nice picture of the comet.

[@PaulthomsonphotographyUk]

Absolutely beautiful mate loved those waterfall shots 😀👍✌

[@Ramage7070]

Damn mosquitoes have been bad this year in BC. Great way to start my morning with a photo shoot with Uncle Grumpy.

[@andrewherbert9938]

Love that swirling water shot Adam , the others weren’t bad either

[@paynescaping8957]

Awesome video as usual Adam, love your done skill

[@billonthehill9984]

Excellent compositional skills methinks... Bill on the Hill...:~)

[@KellyPettit]

Another great vlog, Adam. Love the photos as always. Perhaps my favourite Van Isle shot is the one where the mosquito lands on your finger! lol

[@jeppemichaeljensen2684]

Good one ! I learn something every time. So nice to hear you thoughts about the comps. Perfect Thanks

[@barbaralivieri9091]

Nothing to it ‘eh? Lol. Beautiful drone footage as usual. Love the Carmanah... more mossy trees please 🌳 😁

[@bobwollenberg9160]

"Plethora"...that's what I come here for!

[@Jazzbeau]

You'd think all those mosquitoes would be more respectful in the presence of your drone, Adam, like it was some kind of Mosquito Goddess they'd all flock to to worship! ; ) Great video as always!

[@SD_Alias]

A really wonderful forest and pictures from it. Have you ever met bears there? Do you carry bearspray for selfdefense?

[@windleman1]

As an older viewer I love the signs you have on the trails of Carmanah 🤣

[@garylambe1187]

Hi Adam, excellent as always - wishes I could live on Vancouver Island - superb place. Have you ever, or ever considered doing a video on how you capture the B roll and how you do your videos and what software you use/recommend for doing it. Gary

[@SteveP_2426]

Love those swirls in the waterfall Adam - esp the one at 11:50. How much difference is there in settings (if any) between shooting Medium frame compared to Full frame? F22 seems really likely to cause diffraction but your image seemed sharp.

[@Andrew_marr]

Loved this Adam, looks like an amazing spot. I like what you did with the waterfall and combining the two images together. The shots of the trees were amazing the green of the leaves was incredible. I have been to a few locations in Australia that are very remote, so I can relate to the safety aspect of having someone to go with. You are a little far away for me to join you, unfortunately! 😊

[@oneandonlyjaybee]

I've just woken up from sleeping after night shift and thought the title said 'cameraman Walbran' '. As I was watching the intro I was thinking 'damn this guy's good!'

[@ronboe6325]

Beautiful fairy land of green, ferns, cedars and waterfalls then I get get yanked back to reality with those damn mosquitoes. :^) Not a keen fan of humidity either. You are really rocking it with the Fuji; you seem to enjoy using it with your vlogging more than the D850 (on the computer screen the image quality seems to be on par with each other). Well done.

[@allenbuyck7957]

Great work as always. I love your videos and look forward to them every week. Have you completely moved away from you Nikon D850 for mirrorless?
