Looked like a great adventure Mike, bikes cameras,French landscapes, what more could you ask for,definitely inspired!

At nearly 90 years of age, I have no intention of ever getting on a bike, but I am a serious amateur photographer...still. I have been watching your videos for some time now and just want to thank you for how much you have contributed to my work. Keep it up. Please.

France makes you smile. After watching this really enjoyable video, I can definitely say, this video makes me smile. Just like all of your videos. Keep up …

I'm by no means an expert, but if you take your phone and flip it upside down (so the lens is toward the road in the church with the bike shot), you can get even lower more easily. I love your videos. I'm working my way through your catalog since I found you a few weeks ago. :)

I had the privilege of taking some photos of a friends Harley Davidson the other day Mike! Beautiful bike. Chrome everywhere! It actually looked quite like an old Indian in design. I was quite pleased with the photos too. I just hope the owner of the bike liked them too!

Another great video easy to follow and fantastic scenery , thanks , Pete western Australia

im just at the part where youre having trouble getting a pic of the church..Just a heads up in case you didnt know, you can turn your camera upside down which puts the lens at the bottom closer to the ground. THEN looking up like that is a bit easier..THEN you can rotate the image later.

Wonderful. The photo of the bike with church in the background, awesome. iPhone photography. Wow. You always say rightly, photos are taken by people,not by camera. Really nice video. Liked it so much.

Wow the landscape is very beautiful. Definitely a change from the desert im used too.

I have a top end Galaxy phone, but still consider the photos to be no more than snapshots. Even in raw, the tiny phone camera sensor just isn't up to the job in my opinion. For travel, I use a pocketable Canon G7X, which does a fine job. A nice journey to a lovely part of France though 😁😁

Another excellent video and perfectly timed! Recently upgraded to an iPhone 12 after many years and have been exploring all of the little built in camera features.

Mike, the bike/church, you can turn your phone upside down too and it'll automatically take the image the correct way round.

days like that are the best..big clouds..sun...creates great contrast in the landscape..sun bursts etc..great countryside as well..Look forward to the following videos Mike

You know Mike, as a biker and a photographer I really enjoyed this one. Good work.

this video using just your phone came at just the right time, i broke my wrist and can't use my camera at the moment, so all my photo's are with my phone, i call it my "one-handed" look, lol

Awesome video. You keep on evolving and getting better and better. I remember 10 years ago, or so, looking for KZfaq videos on photography, and luckily, yours was the first one that popped up. I've been a bing fan since then. Keep up the good work!

Beautiful ride! Thanks for sharing

This was a great video. Thanks for the phone tips Mike.

Well that was extremely interesting Mike. What a lovely country and what a beautiful day you had for a ride on the 'Bird. One day you must come up to London and meet me and the rest of the gang from the famous 59 Club either at the HQ or The Ace Café and we can talk bikes/photography. Have a great trip.

Enjoyable as always.

Another enjoyable biker video Mike :) My top tip for iPhone photography is to ditch Apple's stock 'Camera' app and use the camera that's part of the Lightroom Mobile app. It gives you much more specific control over exposure, shutter speed, ISO etc, and also it has a built-in digital spirit level which makes those low-down tilted shots much easier to frame up. In addition, it doesn't do quite as much of that HDR processing that the Camera app does, and lets you shoot in DNG rather than just JPG/HEIC format ...

Love that you shared the whole experience of getting over to France, it appeals to my passion for travelling and photography. You've inspired me to get out and try to be more creative with my phone on my next trip, even if it won't be the lovely fields of France 😊 And your French is most definitely better than mine as well!

Great Movie I admire your patience with the cell phone - when you have nothing else to hand they can work but hells bells the farting around and you can never see anything clearly :-( Suivez la piste encore Monsieur - Happy memories - Vive La France !!

Great video. Thanks Mike. Love the bike shots and what a wonderful trip for you. 😍😍😍😍😍😍

Ha, I didn't know I could adjust the exposure like that on my mobile. Thanks for that tip Mike. Great scenery on that road trip.

it's great to be back with you Mike always enjoyed your classes online

When you get low turn your phone upside down, it's only a short distance for the lens but it makes a big difference to the photo

Hi mike! I admire your videos and photos and your way of being, congratulations! I am also passionate about photography and I learned a lot from you. I worked on several contracts in the Birkenhead / Liverpool area, and an English colleague took me around Wales. Watching your videos, I fondly remember that peaceful atmosphere from England. I wish you good health and success in everything!

I'll always hate taking pictures with my phone. Its 48 mp sensor doesn't change the awful ergonomics. For me it will always remain just an emergency camera for the few occasions when I for some obscure reason didn't bring a "real" camera. Still, thanks for the tips: Since I rarely use it, I had no idea how easy it is to change the exposure. I'm a bit envious of your bike trip. But I don't even have a licence to ride one. About 40 years ago I'd saved up some money for a license, but the taxman took it. And, well, I tend to bring too much gear anyway, so I really need a car. And being as old as I am (I think I'm several months older than you), it's too late anyway. I'd probably just kill or cripple myself if I ever got up on such a thing.

Brilliant video! Ride safe!

Great video Mike. Will use my phone only for awhile, poor nikon, never mind!

Wonderful ride. France is a beautiful place. Noticed that you clicked most of your pics in portrait. Any particular reason? The one of Mt. St Michel was great. By the way had been to Mt St Michel in2011. What a lovely place especially the Abbey.

This was a very enjoyable video, with the photos that you took, and the beautiful scenery that you passed. However, I have one nitpick, using pinch to zoom on your phone can drastically affect the final resolution of the photo. I've read that, if you use the crop function in your favourite editing app, instead, there is much less impact on the resolution of the final, cropped image.

Hi Mike. Beautiful area. When I worked the QE2 We often stopped at Cherbourg after leaving Southhampton, and I used to go off to different places for the day. I did 6 months on her.

Very enjoyable Mike. Will get the phone out and try 😊👍🏻

Had no idea my phone has exposure comp like this lol. Thanks again, Mike.

Bought a Huawei P30 pro and then my real camera was lying in the closet for almost 3 years. The camera was absolutely incredible on that mobile phone

NOT MY KIND OF TOOL TO TAKE PICTURES. SORRY.
