Why I Stopped Posting Landscape Photography Videos on YouTube

[@lisahuston9794]

Of course I'm watching Christopher! 😁 You do right by taking things at your own pace. Your health, both physical and mental, are priority. Your hard core followers will be here and with you regardless.

[@TMORAN1140]

Thank you Chris,we all missed you. You will know when the time is right for your return. In the meantime we all wish you good health and peace in your life.

[@ChrisSalePhoto]

Thanks Terry. I have been very cautious about returning to KZbin. I guess we'll just see how it goes.

[@Adam-g4n1o]

Absoloutly, I was worried about Chris, but I knew there would be good reason for no videos.....glad you are back buddy!

[@charlenenagel7962]

Such a lovely surprise to see you here Chris. I have been thinking of you. Best wishes in the future wherever it leads you. :)

[@dennispenton2052]

My very best wishes to you & your family Chris. I hope you can find some pleasure in knowing that your presentations when avialable are pleasureable to others. Great delivery today. And thank you for the update - I'm certain other followers were just a curious as myself.

[@ChrisSalePhoto]

I certainly do take pleasure in that Dennis. I have been a little overwhelmed by the response to this video if I am honest and have only now found strength to sit down and reply to all the comments I have recieved. Something I wasn't expecting.

[@charlottedavies9379]

Welcome back, Chris. Take care of yourself and take your time. We'll see you when we see you.

[@AmorLucisPhotography]

So good to see you again, Chris! (I see you've added a bit of grey in the meantime.) In all things, going for a walk (with or without a camera) in an area of outstanding natural beauty is one the world's true restoratives. We're all rooting for you, mate!

[@ChrisSalePhoto]

Thanks Martin, yeah, the whole experience has definitely aged me. Hope to do a bit more walking in the coming months. Just as well as anything 'interesting' in the North Pennines seems to be such a long way away!

[@lakesrhino1]

It's good to have you back on KZbin again. 😊

[@ChrisSalePhoto]

Thanks Rod

[@terrydickin3304]

Chris, it's great to see you on KZbin again after a long time away. I sincerely wish you well in your physical and mental health recovery. Thank you for this posting and thank you for sharing your story.

[@craigwilson1604]

Glad to see your back and glad to see your on the mend 🙏

[@ChrisSalePhoto]

To be honest Craig it is a long, slow road back to full health. But we are making steady progress.

[@Dez_Blanchfield]

holy crap, you've been through the wars.. so glad to see you're looking well, and you sound very positive, which is often the biggest part of these sorts of battles.. and so great to see you back out in the field getting back into your stride.. keep well, stay strong, look forward to your vlogs at whatever cadence you feel you can or want to put them out..

[@GingerCaptures]

Onwards and upwards Mr S, all the best, and your in a peaceful part of the country for your recovery 🙏

Normally you'd be right about it being peaceful here. Unfortunately, at the moment, we are having our roof replaced and the constant banging is making my ears ring!

[@BirdsandMore2376]

Chris! So good to see you again. I've missed you. My heart goes out to you in your recovery from cancer. Cancer sucks. So do mean people on social media. Do come back when you are able. Your loyal fans and friends respect your decision whether you return to YT or not. Here's to your health and full recovery. Cheers from across the pond in Arizona.

[@ChrisSalePhoto]

Cancer does suck! Where abouts in Arizona are you Sheila? I bet your landscape is a little different to the North Pennines where I am.

[@BirdsandMore2376]

@@ChrisSalePhoto Hi Chris! I'm in Southeastern Arizona in Sierra Vista. We are high desert, so quite different from your landscape. I shoot mostly birds and this area is a migratory path. Full and speedy recovery to you!

[@KODOPhoto]

I suspected something was up regarding a health issue. I'm still trying to get back to semi-consistent YT postings after my wife was diagonsed with breast cancer a year ago September. Surgery, recovery, radiation etc. It takes its toll on your psyche. Keep up the good fight, my friend. It's good to see you back!

[@watsoncrawford5296]

Missed you Chris. All my heartfelt best wishes for your future health and well being. Been there with cancer and treatment but now enjoying photography even more than ever with my new camera. Hope you do the same and make a totally successful recovery and return to KZbin.

[@ChrisSalePhoto]

That's good to hear. Hope you are getting on with your new camera better than I am with mine. It can be a bit slow and dim-witted at times.

[@robj1366]

Great to see you back. Having had a visit from the dreaded C twice now I know exactly what you are dealing with. It can be beaten and life can return to normal again. Keep going and hope to see more of you in the future 👍

[@ChrisSalePhoto]

Thanks Rob, I am so pleased to hear that you have beaten it. It's good to know that life can return to normal, sometimes I have found myself wondering if it ever will.

[@neilmorison2363]

Good to see you back, hopefully not for the last time

[@ChrisSalePhoto]

I enjoyed putting this one together Neil (apart from the photo which was a bit pants) so I doubt it'll be the last time. :)

Nice to see you too Tony - hope all is good with you.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Oh man, sorry to hear about the cancer. Happy to hear the physical side has hopefully been dealt with, but having had it close to my life too, I know how terrible it can be. I was wondering where you'd been, but good to see you're back :)

[@bevdonovan]

Hey Chris, like so many who have already commented it is great seeing you back on YT. I've always enjoyed your content and your style, you're a natural! So sorry to hear what you've been going through in the last year with your health, I have a mate of over 30 years who is going through something similar to yourself. Look after yourself, it was great seeing you on here again but I totally understand if it doesn't become a regular thing.

[@PhotographyOnline]

He’s back! Brilliant video which will hopefully make everyone realise how much the Legend of the Lakes has been missed. Hope to see more soon.

[@LarryManiccia]

Good to see you upload a new video, Chris. In a world of uncertainty, I'm glad to hear the issues with your health are going OK. Whether you come back to KZbin full time, or just post once and a while, it's good to see you back.

[@davemckenzie426]

Chris, great to see you again. I, like many others have truly missed your videos. Please consider posting again and best wishes for a full recovery.

[@MHLandscape]

I'm so sorry to hear what you've been through this past year, Chris. Your absence from KZbin has felt, but glad to see your return and glad to see you taking it at your own pace. Wish you all the best in your continued recovery. Its a beautiful area you have there for your photography hunring ground. Wishing you all the best.

[@ChrisSalePhoto]

Thanks Martin - yeah, it is a lovely area. It offers different challenges to the Lake District. I also have the Eden Valley to explore which I am looking forward to. And part of the Dales is still in easy reach, so I really am spoiled for choice!

[@oddbjrnaustevikfoto]

I'm sorry you've had such a difficult time recently Chris, and good on you choosing to focus on your recovery. KZbin is not going anywhere and neither are we! It's just so good to see you mate! Wish you and your loved ones all the best!

Glad to see you back Chris, I’m so sorry to hear what you have been through but hope you are on the other side of it now. I follow a lot of KZbin photographers and I haven’t found anyone remotely near your level of professionalism and engagement. A real ambassador to photography in my opinion.

[@TomMosquera01]

Well it's about time! Welcome back, Chris!

[@ChrisSalePhoto]

Thanks Tom, I would have been back sooner, but I've been... ...er... ...busy?

[@MiguelACoronaDM]

Chris seeing your video notification pop up truly warmed my heart. The world of photography and KZbin felt a little dimmer in your absence, and I've missed your unique perspective and touch. However, understanding the health challenges you've been facing, it makes this return even more special and meaningful. I genuinely hope you know that while your content has been a source of inspiration and joy for so many of us, your mental and physical well-being should always come first. Life has its seasons, and sometimes we need to step back, recuperate, and focus on ourselves. That doesn’t make your return any less significant or treasured. Whether you choose to create videos full-time again or not, what truly matters is that you are on a path to recovery and wellness. Chris, your work has always been more than just about capturing moments - it’s about sharing stories, teaching, and igniting passion in the hearts of your community. Your videos have not just been lessons in photography for me, but also reminders of the beauty that surrounds us every day. To see you back, even if just for this moment, is a testament to your resilience and spirit. I'm overjoyed to see you well and on the mend. Remember to take it one step at a time, and know that your community is here cheering you on, no matter the pace or direction. Stay strong, prioritize yourself, and always know that your work holds profound meaning to so many of us. Cheers to more moments of joy, healing, and creativity in your journey ahead!

[@timothyrenninger2251]

Like everyone else I'm glad to see you back. Praying for your continued recovery. Don't feel you need to post videos because we will be here if and when you do.

[@iainmurray5716]

Heartfelt wishes for a full recovery. You were missed.

[@MartinWolfenden]

Oh my! KZbin didn’t tell me you’d posted. So glad I spotted this. It’s an absolute delight to see a video from you again and I completely understand what you’re going through right now. It was your channel that got me back into photography. So you will always have my gratitude for that. Even though I no longer do a great deal of landscape photography and have moved on to taking pictures of people. Your channel will always have a place in my heart. Thank you again.

[@steves7030]

Good to see you again Chris. You have got to look after yourself... its more important than KZbin! Take care and look after yourself. Whatever you post on whatever platform I will look forward too. Ps if you ever want a chat and a pint...... shout.

[@eddbutcher]

Nice to see you back and recovering Chris. Your health is more important than a KZbin Chanel so do what you need to do. I’m sure you appreciate being out and about a lot more now, that will help you heal.

[@tonykirk4339]

Ahhh Chris, fantastic to see you back and hoping there’s plenty more videos to come 👍. Don’t let the social media cretins get you down…..your videos are appreciated by many and have been informative and helpful to me personally since I took up photography during ‘lockdown’. All the best 👍

[@ChrisSalePhoto]

Hey Sander! I really enjoyed doing KZbin again. I decided that if I do come back, I will only do so if I am enjoying the process. That is the promise that I have made to myself.

[@SimonBurnCreative]

So good to see you back Chris, your presence on KZbin has undoubtably been missed, it's a natural platform for you. I can only imagine the emotional stress, but nature is the best healer, and luckily you're in the thick of it where you are, so here's wishing you a speedy recovery.

[@michaelberg507]

Glad to see you back again even if you are unsure whether you will continue with the KZbin channel. You and I have had somewhat parallel years; in late 2021, I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer and as arrangements were getting underway for my surgery, the results of a covid-delayed colonoscopy in early 2022 showed a large mass of high-grade dysplasia (if I remember my terminology correctly) which meant I needed to have my ascending colon removed before my thyroid. The first op was on 29 April and, fortunately the mass had not turned malignant. Two months later (June 29) my near complete thyroidectomy was performed (papillary thyroidectomy with three of four lymph nodes removed). I had my radioactive iodine ablation on the day your queen died. Since then, I have been very fortunate; I wake up early and take my little pink pill, then walk the dog, ride my bike and wander around with my camera (a new one also!). I have been very fortunate with respect to my outcomes, and I hope you can get to the same place I am in good order. Best of luck & I look forward to more news from you.

[@derricksansome236]

Best wishes, ignore the negative, focus on the positives and take pleasure from those who care. Hope your recovery continues and enjoy your new landscape.

Thanks Rob - I am enjoying exploring the Pennines and find the challenge invigorating. I am focusing my attention on an are called the Eden District. It covers the Eden Valley and extends into the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales as well as the North Pennines, so I have plenty to keep me busy.

[@darrenspeak1785]

Well having a new video from you Chris was a nice surprise. Totally understandable that you stopped posting to you tube, health and recovery should always come first. Your mental wellbeing is just as important as your physical wellbeing and while the vast majority of comments you will get on your videos will be very kind, considerate and caring, it’s the odd nasty one that will scratch at your emotions. Some people will say just ignore them, but we all know it’s never that easy especially if your feeling emotionally fragile. I for one would love to see more videos from you, but ultimately what I think isn’t important, nor anyone else that watches your videos, it’s your channel and your choice to continue or not. Take care.

[@ChrisSalePhoto]

You are so right Darren. There is a saying on KZbin... 99 good comments + 1 bad comment = 1 bad comment. It is only human nature I suppose. Usually I can handle it, but with everything I've been through, I am not as resilient as I once was.

I'm happy to see you again. With all that had gone on in your life, the reason behind your hiatus is perfectly understandable. If you decide to make KZbin videos again more regularly, I'll be glad to see them; though, your physical health and emotional well-being are more important. Take care!

[@rosssayer6524]

The old saying about when you fall off the horse you get back on, I'm really sorry that you have had to go through this ordeal Chris but I found that talking about it helped me continue with Life in general and my photography was something I would never do again, yes I was told 4 years ago I had bladder cancer so I now wear a bag then 6 months after that the cancer spread to my liver, now after 2 1/2 years of Chemo, radiation, Immunotherapy and IVIG I/m back doing what I was doing before this, so my advice to you is talk about it and fight as hard as you can to do what you did before. People will support you.

[@scrumpyhead2000]

[@kiwicit0]

KZbin and Social Media is a cesspool and cancer is ugly too (I had my own head and neck cancer in 2018/2019). However, life is arguably about the search for beauty, and photography offers us photographers a path to find that beauty. So to youtube or not, doesn't matter in this search for beauty. BUT, hopefully you still have photography itself in your own quest to find love/beauty. Thank you Plato for this insight. Take care Chris.
