Laura Bali Calling.😊

[@hawgly]

This is fabulous! Thank you for taking the time to respond to your fans and subscribers. And you absolutely must write down or record your adventures so you don’t forget all the details. Someday you may actually have time to write that book. Also the story of the earthquake in Ecuador was scary and funny as hell and probably finished off your dad’s hair when he found out! 😎🎸

[@LauraBC]

@IlyesZoltan Bali is ❤

[@LauraBC]

@hawgly Thank you so much! ❤ I tried my best to answer as many questions as I could. It was so refreshing being able to hang out with you and talk about so many thing I never talked about before. Glad you enjoyed the Ecuador story! hahah Now I laugh so much too. But it was terrifying. 😂 Yeah my parents do suffer a bit when I travel alone and they hear the stories... 😅 Loads of love and thank you for being part of this amazing community! 😊

[@hawgly]

@@LauraBC Basque Country is so beautiful and interesting I’m wondering if you feel like you’ve exhausted all of your creative energy in regard to that part of the world. Sometimes we get bored with a place because we were raised there and it doesn’t impress us like a new exciting location does. I left the southern USA for the mountains of Colorado when I was young. But I realize now the deep south has a lot to offer and I was just tired of it. Thoughts?

[@saral.9220]

Thank you for everything you do Laura. You're so inspiring! I've been following for so long already and I never miss any of your videos. I love this long video because I felt so much closer to you. Hearing your struggles and all the personal questions. Thank you for taking the time to talk to us. You're so honest and real and that's hard to find on KZbin. ❤❤ ❤

[@largebottomproductions]

CONGRATS!. As much as I like your creative energy and work, I appreciate your transperrancy about your journey just as much.

[@LauraBC]

Thank you so much! 😍 It makes me so happy to read this. I love being able to be myself here and open up about my struggles as much as my achievements. It's nice to know that I have so many supportive people around including you. So thank YOU for being here following my journey. It means a lot! ❤

[@elementalview1]

You are an inspiration! Im due to retire from my full time job as a medical photographer. Since U wull never atop being a phorograpger, you have inspired me to plunge head first into freelance photography, taking in photography projects larger than what Im used to. Muchas gracias por la inspiracion!

[@LauraBC]

Thank you so much! 😍 It's so nice to know that I inspire you. 🙏 And I'm soooo thrilled to know that you're pursuing your passion and getting into other photography projects. I highly encourage you to do so! My journey has been long when learning other niches and it's so rewarding! Still learning every single day. ❤

[@dronepilotcontractors4094]

Thank you Laura for answering my question! I wish you the best in Bali and continue to look forward to your new content! Drone Tip - For your trip with the Tree Houses....Visually check the height/elevation of the highest tree by hovering near that tree and checking the height on your drone screen. Add at a minimum 10 meters to that and don't fly below it! Point the camera down to check yourself periodically. Rotate the drone periodically with the camera level to be certain you do not have any trees within the level sight. You can also invest in a DJI Air 3 or Mavic 3 with Optical Avoidance which helps a little. Of course, most important, keep line of sight to the drone checking your monitor and looking back to the drone frequently. Your confidence will increase over time!

[@igordenisow1449]

I've been watching your channel for over a year now. There is such energy coming from you that it is simply incredibly inspiring. Thank you sincerely for sharing your experience! Continue on and may God help you! Because of the war in my country, I moved to America. To earn extra money for my family, I am trying to monetize my long-time hobby and become a professional photographer at 40 years old. Your videos are very inspiring! Wish me luck please ☺

[@LauraBC]

Thank you so much for such a meaningful message! ❤ It makes me so happy to know that you're following my journey and you're watching my videos. I love to see that you're pursuing photography. Age is just a number and it's actually amazing to see how you're chasing that path now. I wish you, of course, all the luck always! 🙏 I'll keep the educational videos coming to help as much as I can in your new journey! ❤

[@igordenisow1449]

Thank you so much!!! 🙏❤@@LauraBC

[@iTurnPeopleIntoArt]

Laura, your earthquake stories were crazy! Glad those two events didn't amount to any tsunamis. Nice Q&A video, especially for someone like me who's new to your channel. Best of adventures in Bali and beyond~

[@BrianHickmanMilitaryBrat]

You do an amazing job!! Congrats on your 100K!! Your cinematography is really good. Love how you do use the basic shots you need for a video like what you do.

[@VassoMekra]

Such an interesting Q&A! And oh my, the similarity between your parents and mine could not be bigger 😆Thank you Laura 🌼🦋 keep your spirit free!

[@mralsal]

Thank you so much for this video. Found you by accident and now I'm 3 videos in and have subscribed. Just started taking up photography after many decades. Your videos are soo honest. Interestingly your comments about relationships and first loving yourself comes a very difficult time for me as I have just come out of a 22 year relationship which is hitting me hard. I find I have all the time in the world for myself now but I'm not loving myself that much. One of the reasons for taking up photography again. My only wish is that I should have done it years ago instead of now. I'm nearly 60 and I have the feeling it's maybe too late to go pro but as a hobby I'm looking forward to a new adventure.

[@feketestefan]

Congrats for the 100k ! Just had to comment, really healthy thinking about happiness, really nicet Bravo !

[@fm_ography]

Gracias por responder a mi pregunta! You definitely don't need to worry about that fear though, keep killing it you absolute badass! :D

Laura! I need a video on watermarking and the best way to handle everything about it. I’ve water marked my photos before but I’m not now and I have so many people telling me I need to watermark them and I just don’t know what to do. Help!

[@Andy20125]

Thanks for an inspiring video. Honestly it made my day! With love from Michigan USA.

[@ronnievonner]

Thank you for inspiring work and excellent videos.

[@mariemclaughlan5404]

Thank you Laura🎉

[@robpastore]

Keep doing what you love doing Laura big love. Videos like this is how I get to know the photographer. One question I did no see mentioned is how is your health. I hope is well being self employed in Bali I am sure insurance can be either expensive or cheap.

[@LauraBC]

Hi Rob! Thank you so so much! You're always so supportive and it means the world to me! ❤ My health is great, thank you so much for asking. After almost half a year going through those surgeries... Now I'm so thrilled to be at my 100%. Everything is way cheaper here on this side of the world. After being in London, everything is. 😆 Un abrazo gigante!

[@sbanesihleTV]

Thank you so much! 😍 Glad to know that you're comfortable with my thick Spanish accent. 😄 Thank you for being here and being part of this community!

[@sbanesihleTV]

@@LauraBC ✌️ oh that is Spanish 👌 sounds so nice

[@mynameistrd6841]

I'm Sony user and recently bought a Nikon Zf, but I used to have R5 for awhile. I think compared to Nikon and Sony Canon has such a unique and wonderful look to it. It can never be imitated by Sony or Nikon, but since I have too many Sony lenses already, I can only have a second camera that can use my collection of Sony lenses, which is Nikon with Megadap adapter. Canon has its own little world that does not talk to anybody else that's the only problem I have with my R5 no matter how much i love it :)

[@jdlopezv6]

Love to see you succeed!

Love the 360d video camera u used last week… tell me more please 🙏 Good work I’m a big fan Be safe & thanks 🤩 Cheers Karon

[@LauraBC]

Hi Karon! Thank you so much! 😍 It's so nice to know that you enjoy my videos and my photography vlogs. I had so much fun shooting with the Insta360! 😊 And I totally agree with you. Creativity is therapy in many ways. So nice to know that you live in such a beautiful place. I consider Nature a big must in my life. Thanks so much for being here and for being part of this amazing community. I couldn't ask for a better one! Big hug all the way to Australia! ❤

[@stephanyfaycohen3842]

Hi Laura Thank yo, Laura, for this delicious slice of your ife cake video. So many amazing talents. You say that you do not think your parents will visit you in Bali. They DO visit you wherever you go.... but using their spirit whilst they are asleep in Spain. FEAR NOTHING. Feel the fear and ask GOD to walk hand-in-hand with you - whoever, whatever, wherever. We all die. Your parents would be even closer when eventually they too "pass over". This I found from my own parents "passing over" in 2022 and 2007. They are closer me to now than they have ever been in this 3D life. Don't worry either about business failing - as one door shut, another opens. Nothing is going to happen to you - unless it was in this life's "Destiny Plan". Having the RIGHT man or woman in your personal life, is like realising that SUGAR is needed in a cake. Looking forward to seeing everything you are doing. Look after No. 1. GOD bless you.

[@LauraBC]

Hi Stephany! Such a meaningful message! Totally agree! ❤ Thank you much for being here always supporting and following along. Loads of love always! 😍
