I feel like one who is in awe of amazing fireworks… all I can say is “Oooh!” and “Aaah!”

Enough world class images just in this one video for a new book or zine. Simply fantastic dear sir.

You have certainly taken some beautiful photographs on this trip. I also suspect you have also many lifetime memories also. Thank you for sharing.

The Raw file reveal is super helpful Adam. The difference between the file is a great way to learn.

As always really gorgeous photos. I also appreciate your "hiking/camping" to give us the views. While I can get around pretty well still at 76, my acrophobia limits what I can do at heights. My time in the military cured me of any desire to do camping except at the most civilized of areas. So, you doing all the hard work and showing us the results, is really great.

What an incredible place. You’re living my (and many others’) dream, Adam. I sure hope you appreciate that. Thanks for this lovely video.

Wow - what an adventure, what a landscape - proper Lost World stuff - and beautifully photographed!

Stunning. Especially that image at ~16:06! Love the whole video, and the series from Namibia and S Africa

Stunning video🦜♥️🌲🌟🇫🇮🐘🌴😀👍!!! Great photos too!!!

Fantastic images. Appreciate the extra work to film during these hikes to bring us along.

It's always wonderful to be in the mountains with such light and atmosphere, thanks for sharing and letting us enjoy some of it with you.

Great trip and shots. Other places you might like could be "The Garden Route", which has beautiful forests and coast, some of the Cape mountains like Baviaanskloof or mountains around Oudshoorn, and remote desert areas like Richtersveld.

I want a button to push during the video for the pictures that make me say, "OMG, that is stunning!" ❤

Very nice. I always appreciate showing raw files before showing the final edit.

Another stunning location/video. I too like to see the raw file, then your edited photo. As always Adam, you have produced some stunning photo's from your trip. Keep up the good work.

I have followed both you & Alex on social media for a number of years and to see you on a trip together was great. What an amazing location & I look foreward to seeing a book from AN on the Drakensberg sometime in the future. Must say in the week you were on this hike it looked you had some amazing conditions and this shows in the images you have presented us. One of the things I love about your work Adam is your processing is always to a minimun but always with a maximum effect - no doubt due to your skills in the field I would say. Great watch as always. atb Al

Best photo at the 7:30 min mark, Adam, great morning shot, just after a coffee I bet !

Lots of "porfolio shots" and amazing places!

I thought I recognised that voice! I joined Alex Nail for his Great Wilderness Trek in the Scottish West Highlands May 2021. It was an amazing 5 days and he knows his stuff both in photography and hiking. Lucky you to go with him to the Drakensburg. Its on my bucket list ;-)

Hats off to you Adam for carrying your full kit up there. Appreciate the effort to record the walk and then give us some lovely images along the way. The Drakensberg Mountains do look extraordinary, but not always the easiest place to photograph. As you say it is hard to give scale to your images in such a place. Personally, I would have been tempted to shoot monochrome more than colour in this environment particularly when you have a lot of mist and cloud and can take advantage of the strong contrast. Just as an aside, I noticed pretty much everyone except the guides were using walking poles. This must be northern hemisphere thing. I know they are said to have lots of benefits, but in my experience they are more a hindrance than a help in anything but open country. They just get in the way. If I take a pole, I take one only which can be useful on steep descents or in crossing fast flowing streams. But when you are scrambling up or down steep rocky gradients or moving through scrubby or thickly wooded terrain you generally want both hands free, not having to manage two poles. So I don't quite understand this two walking poles thing except in favourable situations.

That shot at 12:54 Jeez!

Beautiful high quality images. They show so much depth that it sometimes seemed as though I was right there standing on the cliffs.

Absolutely fantastic series Adam thank you very much for sharing your awesome journey of such a beautiful place on our planet really enjoyed Namibia but the Drakensberg was epic. And as always all photos were absolutely stunning

Amazing and spectacular photography.

Though many have spoken to this, I too, appreciate the raw file image prior to your edit. You do justice to the rendering of light, shadow and colour without over exaggerating and your cropping is well chosen. Thank you, Adam, for sharing such inspirational beauty.

Adam, I think this is your most beautiful video yet. Great work and thanks!

Absolutely stunning places!!! At some point one expects to see a dinosaur or a flaming dragon pop up, such is the magic of the place... I had never heard of it, thanks for showing us. It goes without saying that the photos are extraordinary !!!

As usual, a stellar video and photographs of a place that I've never heard of! Such loveliness, I can't even find the right words... But when I watched this, my heart rate really slowed down, it was mesmerizing.

Great series buddy! Some gorgeous shots, especially loved the pastel shots of the distant layers

Incredible. The one thing i like most about your videos is that you show the raw image before you show the final image. It does two things. First, it shows the importance of getting it right in camera when you take the shot. Second, it shows off the subtlety and nuance of your post-processing. You prove you don't have to go over the top with processing to have great images.

Love the image at 8 minutes in 👍

What outstanding landscape images. You are the best. Thank you for sharing.

Very enjoyable and interesting. Beautiful. ❤

One of the things I love about your videos is seeing the raw images and then guessing how you're going to edit them. Bring up this or accentuate that, but often it is in how you crop them that is the most surprising and delightful. Thank you

Really amazing trek and great photos.🤩🙏

Excellent ! Thanks for posting.

Thanks for all your hard work. Appreciate you including your camera settings too. Had to watch twice.

Lovely photos Adam. Thank you.

Great photography. Very enjoyable. Thanks

Amazing, I will never get there but I am so glad you did and shared your adventure with us. Thank you!!!

Just stunning light and landscapes Adam. Wow.

Thank you Adam. It looks a difficult environment. 🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷

Absolutely wonderful. Every second of the series was great you’ve got some stunning images. Also thanks for taking us along

Brilliant , stunning , period

those telephoto shots are great!

Wow what a spectacularly beautiful trip. Excellent images!

Nice photos Adam. Lucky you, that is some area to visit.

I'd love to see a video where you bust out the ole 4x5 and shoot some film. Perhaps in a garden like you used to.

Thank you very much Adam for taking us on what can only be described as every photographers dream , what a wonderful journey , Phil

Looks like a gorgeous area. Wow, thanks for sharing from your trip through Africa, I haven’t been to that part of Africa, but really want to visit it sometime.

So beautiful pictures, the views are spectacular. Thanks for sharing with us.

Great videos Adam. Really enjoyed following along.

Wow... beautiful images of a stunning area. Really liked this one.

Amazing place. Amazing images. Bravo!

Great series. It’s always nice to see areas, I didn’t know before and they’re photographed wonderfully. 😊

Wow is a good description for this collection of images, extraordinary sir, thank you!

Outstanding! Thank you for sharing

Superb set of shots Adam!

Adam, what can I say! Incredible trip, the photos have bee just stunning. I. Believe the word is Ethereal. WOW, thanks for taking us along. Stunning work as usual!!!

Amazing location; amazing conditions; amazing photographs!

Adam, amazing video, excellent images! Congratulations !

Fantastic, just fantastic. I see you're using an Acratech tripod head; good for you.

Outstanding! Thank you, it is a great video!

There are so many incredible shots that came out of this trip... wow

Amazing adventure! Your images are phenomenal! Thanks for taking me along!

Thanks Adam. Great content, great photography.

Adam, this was a great video, the music choice was outstanding and fit the foggy, cloudy mood so well. The images were very nice, and some of the cliff edge photos triggered my vertigo so I had to hold on to my chair so I would not tip over. I am glad you did not mute the greens in the photos, seems like so many people are doing that now, and for me if it is green it should stay so in most photos but maybe that is just me.

Fantastic trip and pictures!

Thank you. That was beautiful. The next video is about the baboons, I hope? 😊

another trip added to our bucket list, courtesy of Adam Gibbs's storytelling. Wonderfully inspiring adventure.

Your work has taken on another dimension, and I am so excited that you explored the Drakensberg. I am deeply inspired, thank you.

Beautiful as always

Very interesting to see how you process your raw- files! Thank you

Thank you for a wonderful video.

amazing country well done mate

Fantastic images!

Breath-taking stuff, Adam! Thoroughly enjoyed this series. Thank you.

I never realized that South Africa had mountains like this. Spectacular!❤

What a bunch of gorgeous shots. Your keen eye for a composition, great anticipation for light, careful editing style and GFX 100s detail makes for some incredible wallhangers!

Thanks!

Great to see one of my favourite photographers experiencing the splendour of the Drakensberg. It's such an incredible, awe-inspiring part of South Africa. Lovely shots Adam!! 🙏

"It's just spectacular." Truer words were never spoken. Love the video. The scenery is, in a word, spectacular!

That was just an awesome place and you made some really beautiful photographs. Wonderful work Adam!

Wonderful Video and Pictures.

just around the corner from where I live :)

Great images Adam I am learning more from watching your adventures, constantly looking at your settings more the depth of field for each image and getting more of an understanding as to adapt my outlook on the image in front of me, thanks and have a save trip home.

Thank you so much. I have loved every post and every image. Very inspiring!

So many fantastic images here Adam - particularly like the rainbow shot I have to say!

Marvelous places. Fantastic trip. Thanks for sharing, Adam.

Hi Adam, Great to see you in our beautiful country with a great diversity of nature and wildlife, enjoy every minute 😊

Stunning landscape. Thanks for taking us along.

Fascinating place and experience. Thanks for sharing it with us Adam. I wouldn’t be surprised if the whole time sits with you for a long time.

Thank you for taking us along. Wonderful images!

Everything about this video is spectacular. Gorgeous scenery and even the B roll is inspiring. The flow is excellent, and the images are amazing. I really appreciate how you show the RAW with settings followed by the edit. Thank you for the inspiration.

Stunning views! The imagery is wonderful.

Awesome landscape - awesome shots! Thank you ever so much, Adam, for sharing.

Absolutely stunning Adam! Think I need to add this to my destination list. Reminds me very much of North Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 in places ❤

Amazing trip! So lovely to see this part of the world. I'm glad you took images, like the first one, even when you thought the conditions might not be 'perfect' because they are perfect memories, and that is priceless.

Holy shit, that image at 16:00!
