Wild Iceland Weather, The Beiber Canyon, and How I Back up my Photos

[@nikolaszikakis1046]

So nice to see photos/footage of Iceland that i’ve never seen before and haven’t been photographed a thousand times!

[@gordonmelrose57]

Great Video Braendan. Brings back happy memories - I was at the same accommodation as you 2 weeks ago!!!

[@finedecks]

Hey Brendan, They are predicting awesome Northern Light tonight and tomorrow. Hope you can catch some of it.

[@IRLLady]

Great Advice!! I usually just keep my photos on the memory disc until I get home, never thought about "what if"!! Thanks

[@katrin896]

I am an Icelander and I just want to say thank you to you as a tourist for actually paying attention in Reynisfjara and not be stupid. Way to many people don't respect the sea and that can be deadly. So thank you.

[@BrentHall]

Lots of good info in this one Brendan. As a former navy rescue swimmer, I definitely know how dangerous those waves can be! Also, I really think you wanted to start your diet now, but you let those Icelandic hot-dogs convince you to wait until Thailand...

Been watching a few of your recent Iceland videos, can't believe how busy it is there now! I found that canyon a few years ago, there were no paths or metal platforms (or beiber), it actually reminded me of oblivion which they shot a lot of in Iceland. Incredible country with lots to explore and stunning scenery, worth going the extra mile to find things off the beaten tracks or visit at quiet times of the year (if they still exist over there) particularly with a group, guess I've always been lucky with beaches and waterfalls all to myself!

[@AstroHBF]

Loving the Iceland vlogs. I am going to have to return next year

[@scotty4418]

just changed by back up processes. Now using two external hard drive and a cloud back up. Like you say Brendan can't afford to loose precious images

[@JaseEvoX]

I can vouch for that beach, I was about 15-20 feet away from the water edge (where previous waves hand been going) doing a long exposure when all of a sudden a was waist deep in water, it came from nowhere. So keep yourself and the your gear safe by keeping it a long way from the water.. fantastic place though :)

[@iZogAdventure]

Loving this series. Planning a trip to Iceland next year in hopefully March. What are you using to vlog on these days? Epic videos.

[@PereaPhotography]

I was at that beach a few weeks ago. The worst wind I’ve ever felt in my life. Some kid got blown over and his mom had to grab him. Crazy. Gale force winds!

[@mannipearce3357]

Brilliant.

[@AWoodworkersLife]

Brendan, I'd love to know more about what your file organization structure looks like in lightroom (or whichever platform you use). I find using keywords works well but is very tedious, but my structure of year:location:subject which is easy at first, isn't that effective to use if I forget where I shot something. What do you use? A 60 second bit on this would be awesome!

[@pips9687]

weather bad in Devon England UK , wet and windy Brendan

[@tompetersphotography]

Great video dude, how’s Winston treating you? Thinking of upgrading

[@jolotschka]

backing up is also possible via android phone to installed extra micro sd card via otg and then to a usb stick if you got no laptop around , android tablet will do the same job . other posibilities are wireless working hdds or wireless working sd readers , but they are slow and raw files or video will take a long time to transfer. And be aware to do on cam and on backup a new folder per day ;-) . that helps a lot . can also buy an ssd or nvme and put it in enclosure to have a 1tb stick or usb driven ssd for super cheap . and fast if you can use usb 3.1 or 3.0

[@djvincon]

Hi Brendan, Thanks for the video's. I really enjoy them. What laptop do you use to edit your photo's?? Thanks!

[@MickGrewcock]

Great advice on backing up - but what would you do in the event of not being able to carry a laptop? I am off to a Kenyan location in December carrying two Panasonic GH4/5 and a GoPro but nor room for a laptop. Not sure what to do about backing up!

[@BrendanvanSon]

Gnarbox is a great option.

[@MickGrewcock]

Brendan van Son Thank you!

[@jamesfindlay7150]

Mick Grewcock iPad mini or iPhone and a wireless hard drive for back up. Personally I use a WD my passport wireless with SD card slot for auto backup

[@MickGrewcock]

Thank you James, appreciated. Mick

[@stevendriesen6580]

Check out the ravpower FileHub wd03. Cheap and works like a dream.

[@ArthurMG00]

LOL, That beach on the first part of the video is the same beach they used as scenario for Game of Thrones (Dragonstone castle)

[@ariesdejesus1913]

Last time a Bieber horse, now a Bieber canyon.. bro, after this Icelandic trip, youre a certified Bieberian.

[@markburton3306]

How's the new tripod in the high wind?

[@AnecdotageInk]

Amazing! @ 5:42... is that as dangerous as it appears??

[@Steinle92]

What laptop do you use? Looks super compact and lightweight. I'm looking for a new one right now, especially for travelling. Can you recommend yours?

[@hawkwut]

Thanks

[@BrendanvanSon]

3 points!

[@savagefrieze4675]

A diet in Thailand? Not!

[@EdPeacock]

Hi Brendan - are you doing a brand deal / ad with Sandisk - I love your work but just think you should let your subscribers know if you are! Thanks for all the inspiration Ed

[@BrendanvanSon]

+Ed Peacock yes, I am. And, you're right I should be more clear. Will try to correct that at the end of the series.

[@EdPeacock]

Dont worry - love your work (check out my insta - I always try and use your tips! - instagram.com/ed.peacock.photo/ or @ed.peacock.photo )

[@jamesfindlay7150]

Ed Peacock under KZbin rules he has to tell if he has a brand deal. Look at the tripod video he explains in the description about brand deals on KZbin

[@Loopsrainforest]

RIP Vancouver Grizzlies

[@phynx2006]

[@mariaselenabieber5818]

[@martinberry1540]

Thailand in 2 weeks? no chance of a diet with Thai food, best in the world
