Wide-Angle Lens Sunset Photography

[@JaypeaFoto]

I think I like the shot with the short shadows.

[@peterjulianphotos4659]

I think the trees with the longer shadow is the better of the two, I love the repeating lines.

[@gavinmcguire1746]

I think landscape of boats in the foreground and building in the background worked well with the setting sun. However I felt the portrait of boat and the looming 'angry' sunset clouds works very well.

[@martienhoogebeen8434]

I like the photo with the long shadows and the longer grass the best. Beautiful shot!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a lot :)

[@Berry_N]

I always love your tree, and your tree and field, shots. So lovely. And definitely the longer shadows, the grass looks better in that one too

[@mitchbergner2795]

Beautiful as always. I liked the long shadow drone shot best as well as the lone boat sunset...

[@bruceprosser5445]

Hello Mads, I admire your consistency in always getting out there and taking photos and at the same time explaining why and how you take photos. Great videos!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks, Bruce! I really appreciate it :)

[@javierrey3399]

Great.

[@aboynamedjamil]

You videos are always so satisfying Mads. Thank you for this content.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you very much, Jamil :)

Ove the long shadow photos

[@ianbarnes1406]

Great photos as slways Mads. Just curious but would the drone shot of the trees have worked if you'd arranged is so that the diagonal line of bushes etc exactly bisected the corners of the frame? In this sort of shot where there are so many options, how do you decide which is "right' (if there is such a thing)?

[@kefkapalazzo1]

How long did it take you to see such compositions more often?

[@kelvin869]

Long shadows shot looks better.

[@JasonLorette]

I really need a drone...🤣 I like the longer shadow photo because of the deeper greens in the field, what it a conscious choice to not make the line of the rock wall go directly from corner to corner?

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a lot, Jason. Yes, it was conscious, I tried with one from the upper left, but it ended cramming the trees too far up in the composition.

[@JasonLorette]

@@MadsPeterIversen I figures that it was something like that...still want a drone. :P

[@trevinblount7746]

Your aesthetic sense is very Scandinavian: it's all about simplicity and clean lines.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you, Trevin. That's a big compliment :)

[@Brad_hodge_photography]

I'm looking for the best settings to use for sunsets with my samyang 14 I use it for astrophotography but know its nice for sunsets too. Anyone ?

[@KGi4]

Mads. Isn't Sigma 12-24mm f4 lens wide too much. 12mm looks very distorter, can you use it for properly or you need to fix all those distorted ares in post. I am thinking to grab 15mm or 11mm prime lens from Irix. 15mm looks acceptance but 11mm is really something. Do you think 11mm on full frame usable for wide angle landscapes, or only on particular scene when you need more foreground? Thx in advance

[@davidrobinson6442]

Really nice and informative videos Mads. Looking forward to your Photoshop Tutorials.

[@valscherrer6319]

Hi Mads - Love your work - Fotos as well as the videos. Learn a lot from you. I went to Denmark three times and allways loved it. Long time ago though :-) I guess I will go there again. Greetings from further down south - switzerland.

[@pattyandrews2902]

I have only recently found your channel and love your work. But I'm hoping you will please let KZbin know that we want to be able to choose to get e-mail notifications again. They turned them off with no notification - or at least I didn't get any notification it was going to happen. The only reason I found out you had a new video was via an IG post from another channel I follow. Then I realized I was not getting notification e-mails from any channels I follow, including yours. I like the e-mail sitting in my inbox reminding me I haven't watched your newest video yet. Please send feedback to KZbin to turn e-mail notifications back on or at least give us the option to receive e-mail notifications instead of "push" notifications. Thank you. ;-{

[@sergocherrini]

Good photos!

[@brucesmith9144]

The picture with the longer shadows is better, IMHO. There is a lot going on in that picture compared to previous photo. Like the texture of the grass and there is nicer, more pleasing graduation from light to dark. My guess is as we transition toward autumn, the lower sun angle gives better side lighting which reveals texture. Nice work!

[@danmaynard120]

I prefer the one with the long shadows. I find it more pleasing and calming for some reason. The vertical crop prior to that by the way was so unexpected and beautiful.

[@scotty4418]

My personal preference is for the longer shadows as it signals a transition in the landscape and also the richness of the grass in the image was beautiful. Loved the final images too Mads and super excited to hear your Photoshop tutorial is nearing its release date and cannot wait to purchase it

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much, Jim! I really appreciate it!

[@sumanhazra8731]

Love the drone shots taken from top..its so simplistic shot with balance lights and compositon.love it. Can you make a video in your further video with how to operate and fly a drone which drone is better to buy.

[@peternickols2687]

Great video Mads. You cannot beat an awesome sunset. 👌

[@mahaswetabhadra7740]

Good video as always. Need to learn how you processed those pics in adobe photoshop cs6 and adobe lightroom...

[@robertstephens1868]

All the photos I found I impressive. Hard to pick the better of the line of trees; perhaps the photo with the longer shadows.

[@Gerardworld]

Nice! I will try it in a similar place near to my home in Spain. Unfortunately this days we can't leave home

[@arielalejandrogarma3672]

beautiful photos Ilike so much , amazing job congratulations

[@stephanegrosjean4990]

It is said that stacking photos to reduce noise works as the square root of the # of photos. For astro, at least. So you typically want 9 or 16 shots to keep it small to process.

[@renagoodfriend-leve9443]

Mads ,anotherWow!Love the minimal beauty!

[@jerryhutchinson2543]

Super imasges again. Of the 2 tree images, I prefer the one with the longer shadows.

[@luispineda400]

Why do u use bracketing? For focusing? Did not get it :'(

[@kevinjack5184]

5 shots & stack. I'll have to try that. Same drone and my photos do not look clean & sharp

[@RussWeymouthPhotography]

The photo of the trees with the longer shadow I felt worked better, it had more contrast where the shadows appeared deeper.

[@marcinmarcin2510]

excellent! thank you and best regards from Poland

[@Pixeld.]

Thank You ! Its always a pleasure to look at your photos. Awsome shots.. always

[@gemolho]

Always the best captures. Congrats!!

[@timmellis5038]

I like the short shadows one. In that one the shadows seem like they are on water.

[@robertwhitemoto]

Beautiful photos Mads!

[@zakiemashiah246]

For your question: Long shadows...

[@paultrunfull3324]

The Halo image is awesome Mads. Oh gosh long shadows for me.

[@ziadalkhamisi7877]

[@victor-ferreira]

Absolutely stunning photos! Drone photo WOW!!!! All photos....STUNNING!!!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much, as always, Victor! 🙏

[@dannynash5713]

Really nice video Mads but would you be kind enough to explain why you use aperture priority over manual? I’m surprised you don’t want to have complete control of your settings. Thank you!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Because aperture priority doesn't mean I don't have complete control over my settings. Whether I use the exposure compensation wheel, or the shutter speed wheel is potato potato. Just that the exposure compensation wheel is bigger and each time I turn the camera on I don't have to deal with the shutter speed :)

[@yahoonomas]

That sun halo photo. Wow. Beautiful.

[@wendynewing8834]

Your idea of putting several photo trips into one video has worked really well and all the images are absolutely gorgeous. As for the two shots of the lonely trees, I prefer the second because with the sun lower in the sky and the grass longer it created a more three dimensional effect. They are both lovely images though. It just shows what a difference two weeks can make to the height of the sun in our northern sky. It may be August but it definitely feels like autumn here in the UK. Thanks for a really inspirational video with masses of content and beautiful images.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a lot, Wendy! Yes, it has turned cold here in Denmark too really fast. Tomorrow we're in for a big storm!

[@jimcastanzo8736]

Long shodows is my preferred image.

[@roberthennessey5702]

Nice images Mads I really need to get a drone

[@AlexMcKean]

What a beautiful field!

[@willemakit48]

Why do I have to choose a photo I like? :-) I loved them all, each had a unique ethereal beauty to them. I always love the music you put with your videos, great selection. Do you edit and do the sound for your video as well?

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a lot, besides the music I make everything myself :)

[@jerryhughes4720]

Long shadows from the drone looks more dramatic so I prefer that ... today. Also like many, looking forward to your tutorial videos.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a lot, Jerry! I think I prefer the long shadows too :)

[@andreagiammarinaro2601]

Hey mads! I always try to find the slightest flaw in your photos but after each video I watch I realize how you always manage to find the best way to photograph the scene in front of you and make the viewer, like me, feel there as if they were looking at him through the lens of the camera. You always leave me speechless!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much for the kind words, Andrea! It is very kind of you :)

[@MckayGeoff]

Prefer the long shadows

[@johnd746]

I thought the sunset shot with the rye and hill would have been better shot horizontally. On the second photo I prefer the second shot with the deeper grass and shadows. Loved all the pictures with the boats.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

There wasn't enough room for a horizontal photo in the first one and thanks a lot :)

[@valeriospositi8333]

Always great and inspirational photographs, Mads! Between the two shots of the lonely trees, I'd prefer the one with longer shadows, probably because those shadows fill the frame better.

Always am a sucker for a great sunset photo. And you managed to get a couple of great shots with the clouds coloured. But, Image at 10.41 is the winner for my vote. Thanks for sharing again Mads.

Superb content Mads. I like the second picture with the longer shadows more. The last image is amazing ! Looking forward tot the Photoshop tutorials !!!

[@ison5622]

lovely images mads, i know design wise it's better to have more space at the bottom than the top but those drone shots the diagonal lines the space from the diagonal to the corner try making them the same top and bottom it kind of breaks the rules but symmetry works better, I think anyway.

Gorgeous collection of images Mads! Beautifully done. Great video too as always 👍

I like the #2 aerial shot, more drama. I also prefer the portrait version of the boat @ Sunset, it helps you focus on the 2 subjects, thanks for sharing Mads. Cheers

Why always a tripod?

[@MadsPeterIversen]

A few different reasons for that but bracketing, relative long exposure times, and because of vlogging. It's hard to handle two cameras at once ;)

[@souadchatta7997]

Definitely long shadows ! It looks like we make us feel that photographers can compose and make the difference by their work on nature!

In my view no doubt, I love the second one. It is more expressive, the lines, the textures,...And those shadows balance the image better than the other photo.
