Have you thought about geotagging your composition locations, if not the photos themselves? That way you can get back to the same spot within a couple meters each subsequent visit?
Some nice light, hope it's good in April
Hi Nick. Thanks for the video – I feel like I’ve learnt something about using light for foreground and background. I did a short course with you last May at that very location and am returning this April with my camera. Kam
I concur with you Nick, the one on the right works for me. cheers.
Stellar images!
Totally agree, the one with the stronger light on the foregound draws too much attention from the central subject …. much prefer the second image ….
Great video Nick. A valuable lesson in moving your feet to get a better composition. 🙂
I'm with you, Nick, much prefer the image on the right. Nicer framing
Hi Nick,
Enjoyed the video.
It was nice to see you find a better composition in the same location as your last video, but further up the path.
I liked both image's, but i can see what you mean about the light on the background rather than on the foreground in the image is probably better.
Look forward to seeing your next video.
Yup, like the second image. Fascinated by all the snow being gone from your last instagram.
Thank you. I really appreciated you sharing your thought process. I love your honestly. You are a great photographer, so seeing how you go though the decision making process is really helpful. Im really looking forward to spring and you maybe doing some more macro. Thanks again.
A very much stronger composition in this version than the cropped version from the last video, I think. The foreground is less dominant, and you can see more of the lake (were you higher up?). When you're right, you're right! Great photo! (either version, but I prefer the subtler lighting of the right hand one).
Good video Nick, as you showed we can’t control light, we can only work with what we are presented with. Thanks.
Definitely the one on the right for me. In that one, the eye goes to the Cleat whereas in the other, it keeps getting drawn to the foreground area. Lovely shot,
Of the two shots, I liked the bright foreground, but the background light showed the mountain features more clearly in the other shot.
Excellant – they are both great shots but my preferance is the one on the left as there is more detail in the sky. I am learning so much at the moment and enjoy the way you bring it across. Looking forward to more content. Keep up this excellent photography.
Hi Nick. Totally agree with you – the right hand image every time. They're both excellent compositions but the improved light on the background makes the second image a winner. Lovely stuff ! Many thanks for sharing.
Both great video's, keep up the great vlogs !!
Hi Nick, enjoyed that, thanks for taking the effort to produce the video, much appreciated. I have to be honest, I can't really decide between the two images. They're both great but I keep flipping between which one I ultimately prefer, hopefully that doesn't make me a photography philistine! all the best, Ian
Definitely the photo on the right 👍
