Moody Landscape Photography With the Hasselblad X2D

Photoshop For Morons 2: www.fototripper.com/store/pho...
Is there anything better than waking up in the misty mountains? This moody morning at Meat Cove offers up some magical conditions for landscape photography lovers.
Once again, Ben impresses me with his commitment to getting up early but I really wish he'd brought his own coffee. At least it gives me a good excuse to plug my upcoming coffee brand.
Chris unleashes the most noxious and well timed trouser shout I've ever heard but he's utterly unrepentant. I thought I'd get my revenge when he sniffs my boot but disturbingly he seems to enjoy the fragrance that only a hardcore landscape photographer can produce.
The Hasselblad X2D gets trotted out to photograph some stunning mountain lupins but will it be able to handle the constant drizzle?
On our way home we visit a majestic waterfall and Ben reveals that he learned lots during my workshop. The only catch is that he learned it all from the Adam Gibbs KZfaq channel!
Will I get bitten by that evil looking fly and will Ben be giving me a 5 star review? Does Chris actually inhale and who got the least amount of sleep?
There's really only one way to find out.
Thanks for watching

I have followed you on KZfaq almost since you began to post videos...they have always been educational (which I have always appreciated), but are always entertaining as well. I bet I can tell you what the best day of your life has been...the day you met Amanda. Your videos prior to meeting Amanda are excellent, but the videos you have posted since meeting Amanda are exceptional. It's obvious that Amanda has been a positive influence in your life, for you now come across as someone who seems quite fulfilled with life. You are a very lucky man.

I did a double take at the 02:15min mark as there was a Mitsubishi Pajaro in the background. Looks like a 1997 LWB 2.8 TD Diesel, kitted out with ladder and roof rack, now that is something to behold.. A wee bit of true 4X4 class in your videos.. who would of thunk it! From a dedicated fan shooting Tamptax K1MkII/K3MkIII even if you are shooting with the Hassle-Blah and the Silly Sony..

@jsimes1 10 ай бұрын

I had a Google ... Mitsubishi marketed the Pajero as the Montero in North America, Spain, and Latin America (except for Brazil and Jamaica) due to the term "pajero" being derogatory (meaning "wanker") in Spanish. 🤣

@FlyFishFairwx 10 ай бұрын

⁠@@jsimes1hahaha yeah, it’s an old joke. That one is a Pajero. Fun fact. The Paris to Dakar Road rally was won 12 times by Mitsubishi Pajero, no other car/vehicle maker has done the same. Thus the name thing is really minor. Mine is a 97 2.8Turbo Diesel Long Wheel base. And with its low end torque I beat Audi/Porsche/and corvettes off the line at street lights. Of course after 75 feet the horse power kicks in and away they go to the next light. This has nothing to do with photography, I just like teasing Gavin about Sony and what ever else he is shooting. He moved away from BC before we could convince him to come to Powell river for a video.

Firstly, let me say I always enjoy your videos, Gavin. In this one you're struggling with insects again so I want to tell you of a little device that is a godsend to take with you into the woods. I've used these in Alaska for years and let me tell you, the mosquitos up there will eat you alive in the back country without protection. The Thermocell can be bought from Amazon or Cabella's for about $40 USD and they're worth their weight in gold. When you get to a place you want to photograph, turn it on and set it down under your tripod. Within 10 minutes, the mosquitos are gone - you can photograph in your skivvies if you like and you'll not get a single bite. They reportedly work for black flies too. That'll be $20 dollars please.
