I Hate This Kind Of Landscape Photography

Ok, perhaps 'hate' is a strong word but I do kind of find myself rolling my eyes at a certain type of landscape photography. Imagine my surprise when I actually find myself giving it a try and then enjoying it!
Getting up at 4AM to get the shot never gets any easier no matter how many times you do it. When you get the shot though, it's totally worth the lost sleep and feeling like a bag of smashed crabs.
I do however suffer from 'camera rage' when my Sony camera freaks out over the slightest bit of humidity. It's not the first time this has happened but somehow I manage to resist pushing it off a cliff.
I give you some priceless tips on composition which I know you're going to love. It's all about compromise and making good decisions, which is easy at a stunning location such as this.
It's not often that I capture one banger after another but in this adventure it's 'banger central' and I'm taking you along for the ride.
Will my camera function like it's supposed to and what on earth is a ''Crumpled Rilskin'? Why did I switch back to full-frame for this shot and do you believe that I can actually pass for 30?
There's really only one way to find out.

The hot shoe cover on the camera should solve that issue for you. Any kind of water (including humidity) can cause that if you leave the hot shoe cover off.

Its the hotshoe cover not being in place, as already been said in the comments below. As a precaution I also put some good quality sticky tape over it, in case the cover goes missing when out and about. All hotshoe contacts are vulnerable to water/moisture damage.

@ 5:32 you can see the issue of water on the hot shoe, “This accessory (water) is not supported by the device and cannot be used. Please verify the compatibility with the device.” having Amanda pose really made the shot great.

"You work with what you've got don't ya?" spoken like a true landscape photographer. As a street and doc photographer I agree 200%, because what is prior research even? I can't decisive moment that. Strangers mid stride on hideous backgrounds, made black and white because I didnt plan for better light is my bread and butter. From my perspective you did great! 😂

PART OF THE REASON FOR THE MESSAGE IS THE HOT SHOE IS EXPOSED TO THE WATER, KNOW ISSUSE WITH SONY IF WATER GETES IN ON THE CONTACTS AND ERROR MESSAGES STRT TO SHOW UP. TRY TO PUT THE SHOE COVER ON AND TRY AGAIN.

Your Sony Rage can be solved if you find or buy the hot shoe cover. Because of the multi-interface connector in the hot shoe, it is sensitive to water.

I noticed the camera hot shoe cover was missing. One drop of water into that area could cause some shorting hence, the error message. I would always cover my hot shoe unless I am using a flash or another accessory. Another photographer has recommended the Nikon Shoe Cover BS-3. It is more protective and apparently fits into the Sony's hot shoe.

I've had this error with Sony. In my case the lens did not fully seat. Lens off/Lens on and fixed. I just don't recall if it was the same lens. No waterfall, rain, or even humid air. I'd say Amanda does know how to pose, and with a touch of joy in her expression. She also adds the only red tones in a sea of green. Great shot!

I think it’s safe to say, having all the port doors open, and no hotshoe cover, and possibly changing lenses with that moisture… any camera would have problems.

Amazing pic with Amanda! My thought is that landscapes with human elements like a path or bridge almost feel empty if you don’t include a human. Having a person, even a tiny person in the distance adds a bit of life. Also, on the camera issue, my Sony would do the same thing anytime I was in moist conditions. I saw a Pierre T. Lambert video where he complained of the same thing and said it’s due to the hot shoe connector being uncovered and getting even a tiny bit of moisture on it. I put a hotshoe cover on mine and it never happened again. Before I ditched it for Fuji anyway. 😂

Happy Birthday, Gavin! Not that fifty is old but you look so much younger. I truly love your photography, and the way you walk us through your thoughts is second to none. You’ve been a wonderful teacher and I expect to learn a great deal more. I keep you, Thomas Heaton, Nick Page, and a few others on my KZfaq speed dial so that I get multiple perspectives in developing my own. Thank you. God bless you and Amanda.

Yes, I did enjoy this week's video. I think it is my favorite. You were in a beautiful location and captured some wonderful compositions. Of course, my absolute favorite was the one with Amanda reaching out into the water. That one is going to be your lifetime keeper forever. This was a fun day. 🥰 OH, and happy birthday. I can almost remember back when I was 50. I did some of my strongest outdoor trips between ages 50 and 68. Thirteen years later I'm still going but my horizons have shrunk a great deal. So, you have done some fine work up to this point, Gavin, but your best is still ahead of you.🌄 Looking forward to seeing what kind of camera you get to replace that Sony.

Happy Birthday! Clean the contacts on the camer/lens. Now the hard part. To lose weight: First rule NO SUGAR (I repeat: NO SUGAR) including sweets. No food for 3 hours before you go to bed. Low Carbs, but lots of protein. Intermitten fasting: start at 16 hours between last meal and breakfast. You can have early coffee but BLACK. Lots of KZfaqs on this subject. Good luck, it will really help your knees to lose 20+ pounds. And yes, the photo with Amanda is great (as are most of your shots). Thanks for the images.

You need not have worried about the dress either, as it really works, because it is soft and natural and it matches the mood of the location very well. Amanda feels the cold, so she was an exceptional model for you. I seem to remember her modeling skills in some of your early KZfaq videos.
