Planning a shoot or luck ?| Outdoor photography Ireland 4K

It’s been a number of months since we have been allowed to travel further than 5km fro home in Ireland and today is the day before this restriction is lifted so I cannot travel to get my seascape shots again , but instead headed back to a location I discovered during lockdown to try and catch the sunset orange light hitting this part of the wood that is covered in moss .

Agree Darren. The shot down by the water is a winner.

[@DarrenJSpoonley]

Cheers Neville .. I am partial to a bit of water :-) thanks for watching

[@michellefisher724]

My favorite photo was the stream with the “glowing” trees

[@DarrenJSpoonley]

Thank you Michelle .. mine too :-) Thanks for watching

[@chrisvantwiskphotography]

Thanks Darren. :)

[@DarrenJSpoonley]

[@zizzy34]

Great video Darren! looking forward to the next one.

[@DarrenJSpoonley]

Thanks man .. glad you enjoyed it

[@davidwoods80]

Jaysus Darren, a fecking ad before we're even through the intro B-roll? Yer killing us.

[@DarrenJSpoonley]

I’m afraid that’s KZbin but looks like I need to go in a tell it what’s what

[@DarrenJSpoonley]

Seem YT thought it would be a great idea to add no less than 5 adverts to the video, even tho default is have them off... Thanks for the heads up, fixed now .

[@pathogan4854]

Great video Darren The water gets me every time ! but the last still shot at 15.09 excellent work ! stay safe.

[@DarrenJSpoonley]

Thank you Pat.. appreciate you watching and glad you enjoyed it

[@CraigNiesenPhotography]

Darren, stunning photographs and usage of the drone. Keep up the great work, and thank you for sharing.

[@DarrenJSpoonley]

Thank you Craig .. glad you enjoyed it .. I decided to get creative on this one for sure :-)

[@JohnHPettigrewFujishooter67]

Great job mate, I would agree my fav is the one by the river, but they were all good, thanks for sharing and stay safe.

[@DarrenJSpoonley]

Thanks buddy .. it was a close fix for my water obsession :-)

[@kieranhayesphotography]

Nice one Darren and it looks like a nice spot, the family walks are great to scout out places sometimes :-)

[@DarrenJSpoonley]

Cheers Kieran .. indeed they are and now that we can move more than 5k I think I’ll be bringing them on further afield scouting trips.. I mean walks :-)

[@LeePelling]

Some great work in this one mate , like the different camera angles and the drone certainly managed to avoid a few obstacles but the footage was great, some slider action as well , must have taken a bit of shooting and putting together, not to mention the resulting images , Really nice mate, stay safe and hope you manage to get out to the coast before long , stay safe ! oh and at around 10:20 i think it was i felt my heart go when the camera moved in the water !!

[@DarrenJSpoonley]

Thanks man .. I decided to bring the kitchen sink with me on this one and go out with a bang :) the drone really impressed me with its obstacle avoidance for sure .. I should use it more often as I like the idea and footage it gives.. ya when filming I noticed it in a different spot and was only during editing I spotted the movement :-) Thanks for watching , glad you enjoyed it .. back to the sea for next Sunday 😱😱

[@jeffguile4415]

some great camera work and really good shots in this episode. have been following you since 29th November when you convinced me to buy the Eos R: you put into words in the right way the reasons I was searching for to buy that camera, which i have. looking forward to the next one. stay safe

[@DarrenJSpoonley]

Thanks a million .. glad you enjoyed that video and thanks for subscribing :-) it a phenomenal camera .. if I could get a second one to film with I’d be delighted .. the G7xii is starting to get very tired now and it’s beginning to show :-) next weeks episode the r shines for stills

[@christian.irmler]

Hi Darren, so great to hear, that lockdowns get eased in your area. A great video again and what an interesting composition with this splitting tree. I like that one at ~14:50 most - amazing depth :) Have great Sunday and nice greetings, Christian

[@DarrenJSpoonley]

Thanks buddy .. we have parole now so was able to get back to the coast yesterday.. felt great driving to location and seeing all the sights along the way even if I wasn’t going to a destination :-) Glad you enjoyed it , yes that was as close as I got to flowing water in a long time :-)

[@derrickstefan7087]

i realize I am kind of off topic but does anyone know a good place to stream new tv shows online ?

@Bradley Heath thanks, I signed up and it seems like a nice service :) I appreciate it !!

[@bradleyheath7277]

@Derrick Stefan you are welcome =)

[@myphotographyworld9780]

Stopped this at 1.40 to say superb intro, fookin braw....now lets watch the rest

[@DarrenJSpoonley]

Haha .. brilliant .. I’ll see ya at the end so :-)

[@myphotographyworld9780]

@@DarrenJSpoonley Aye, no bad Darren, the reverse shot up the tree trunk was nice, even with the semi harsh sky, the long exposure was magic, the contrast with the rest of the composition was very nice. The woodlands have been my solace the last wee while, trees are majestic beings no matter the size, we are presented with very similar landscapes , I'm near Edinburgh. Magic work, well done.

[@DarrenJSpoonley]

Thanks man.. glad you enjoyed it .. yes we aren’t a million miles apart and out Landscape most likely formed from the same block as such :-) You’ve got some great areas around you to explore

[@JamieOverland]

Nice work mate. Was your drone following you through the trees?? Lovely evening light there bud, makes all the difference doesn't it!

[@DarrenJSpoonley]

Thanks mate .. yes it was following me and DOD a great job as my cameraman :-) thanks for watching man
