AMAZING bad weather for landscape photography in Snowdonia

6 жыл бұрын

Snowdonia in Northern Wales is perfect for epic landscape photography. If you manage to get some "bad" weather with showers and low clouds you're in luck for creating some spectacular photos. In this episode we'll visit the Lone Tree, The Boat House at Llyn Ogwen, A view towards the mountain Tryfan and I'll tell the story about my hikes to the top of the Glyders. We will start out at Tintern Abbey in Southern Wales. As always the video is full of tips and tricks in regard to composition, light and practical stuff related to photography. In many ways this video could work as a landscape photography tutorial.

WOW! WOW! WOW! What an awe inspiring vlog Mads! The images, the music, the cinematography and your dialogue combine to make one of the best vlogs I have watched this year......seriously!

Number 5 is my favourite. I have climbed Tryfan many times and in all weathers and it is always rewarding. Love the moody sky contrasting with the smooth water of Lyn Ogwen. The foreground stream nicely balances with the dark mountain. All of your photos have a dark foreboding quality which strikes a chord in me. Thank you.

Love the vid and also good pronunciations of the places a lot of people find Welsh very difficult! Thank you for doing what you do.

It’s great to see you enjoying Snowdonia, which is my stomping ground. I think you did exceptionally well those conditions which looked more challenging than usual! You would love Snowdonia in mid winter after a snowfall! The Glyders are always unpredictable - I’ve had a blinding blue sky after a snowfall with visibility around five miles and also I’ve been up there in June with visibility around 50 metres…

Mads, Loved this video, one of the things I love about photography, is the challenge of the shot in some cases. I see you doing this all the time to get that shot. I love the locations you have been to, love watching your videos and seeing the compositions you are able to walk away with. Love the music you put with your videos! Extremely creative. Not sure if you even realized that you created a quotable moment here. I will be using this and attributing it to you from now on. "When the conditions are as they are, the art is the work with it, or around it, and adjust to the scene." I love that. Can't wait for Covide to get under control to get out there.

Just stumbled upon a quote by Albert Watson regarding his efforts made to shoot the old Man of Storr: "“I deliberately went in October and November because I was hoping for bad weather - and of course I got it. “I find blue sky with white fluffy clouds deadly when it comes to creating a powerful landscape and I was looking for wind and rain and mist.” /End Quote. I thought this fits perfectly to your observations.

I can feel with you. I made the same tour but was suprised by heavy clouds 50 metres before the top. But at the same day I was on Crib Goch for sunrise. It was the most epic scene I ever witnessed. And it's only a 2 mile hike one direction (but quite difficult the last half mile).

I feel like this should be shown to Brits as an information film. So many families head up with their kids, wearing sandals and t-shirts thinking it's just like walking through the local park! No kidding, I've been been up in these mountains in ful winter conditions with ice axe and crampons yet passed families with their kids all in trainers and with umbrellas in hand. Crazy. Also, I've walked these places at all times of year and in all conditions but didn't bother taking a proper camera with me. Really wish I could rewind and take my camera. Hard to get out now as I have a young family, but will definitely take all my kit next time!

You've done it again Mads. Stunning vlog, Stunning images. I choose image 5. I too love the imagery of Lord of the rings and you nailed it with this image. The best compliment a photographer can receive is the phrase " I wish I had taken this shot "....I do. I can't wait for the Lake District vlog. It's an area I'm more familiar with. Thanks again Mads. :)

Excellent video, love your attitude...I'm from Donegal and have very similar terrain in my backyard, but I don't photograph it that often because of weather like this, but hopefully this video has changed my mind! Thanks for posting!

Not sure how I missed this video as I am subscribed to you but, what an awesome video. I love the Ogwen Valley and i'm so fortunate to have it on my doorstep. Well done to you both for reaching Castle of the winds👌

Hi Peter! Thanks for sharing another episode. It really takes a special mind set to do photography, video reportage, hiking and Scrambling in difficult weather conditions. No 2 is my favourite for the tranquility the composition transmits. I would call a honourable mention to the first photograph with the rocks on the foreground and the castle in the background you showed on the video from the top of the Glyders - despite the very difficult weather conditions, I would say it's as good as it gets. Meaning you might live close by and return to the scene week after week and it could take you years or a lifetime to get that shot. ps. A suggestion for future reference: On long hikes in isolated areas I always turn my phone to flight mode. The phone keeps hunting for service due to the topography and isolation of the place (hence that interference) and It saves battery in case of an emergency.

Great vlog Mads and cracking images, I've been to the Ogwen valley many many times though it's hardly in my backyard either. A three hour drive from home and I'm there. A little less than your travel time I guess 🤣. I planned to spend a night on top of the Gilders last year and catch both sunrise and sunset from the castle of the winds in one visit but it never materialized due to low cloud and rain forecast each time so I'll certainly make an effort to do it this year. With a bit of luck (and careful planning) might possibly get a cloud inversion too which would be epic. Keep up the good work Mads and look forward to seeing your future vlogs, more importantly stay safe.
