Margery, there's a strange man in the garden photographing those old boats' flaking paint, again.

I’m currently in Skye looking out on grey nothingness and horizontal rain. You can go to an epic landscape and it can be swathed in cloud and rain. I now feel I can go out and find something to shoot. Thank you for the inspiration and enthusiasm!

Can't stop laughing at "I'm basically a creep in a tunnel", then the "Yeah, he's the one" look & little nod as the guy walks past, to get the pull-zoom shot! Priceless!!

Best video i have watched in years to give inspiration. Living in Scotland we get a lot of "dull damp nothingness" Today is another of those days, you have however inspired me to get off my backside and get out and do something. Thank you...

Great to see you do something different coz let’s face it, when we have a day off you can guarantee the weather in the UK isn’t always perfect. Having some fall back ideas is great. Thank you 🙏🏻 👍🏻

Back to the old Heaton, congratulations, you've found yourself again 👏🏻

i absolutly love shooting in conditions that's challenging it can only make you better photographer and make you realy get intament with your creative prosses .

If I had that awesome landscape I wouldn't mind the weather either. Great pictures

Thanks for all the tips. Beautiful shots! My favourite was the minimalist photo around 13:30

Those underground images in Budapest are awesome - I great change of direction - more please ?

After 6 months of almost constant greying and rainy weather, it's almost impossible to keep your spirits and motivation up, so it takes more than a short and shouting video to help!

You never disappoint Thomas, you always produce images that i love every time.

Truly excellent Thomas. Very motivational too.

Great shots, great tips, thanx.

Thanks for the video. It’s cold and drizzly here in Wisconsin in the middle of march. But I’m off on a Monday and soon I’ll be heading out with my camera to see what the work has to show me.

Good stuff. One part reminded me of a saying that my boss hates “because that is how it has been done”

Just ordered the book with the discount. Thanks Tom. I'm near Alnmouth, so very handy!😊

Great video and thanks for the code, I've just ordered the same book😁

Interesting and inspiring video as usual! That said, dull days are quite forgiving, the biggest problem is to get of the sofa. If I may, here is a suggestion for another video: "What to shoot on a sunny, cloudless day", subtitle: "How to work around the lack of drama" I really struggle with sunny days, photography-wise

I'm an aspiring photographer and from watching a fair amount of your videos you've inspired me to be more creative with my photos and the different compositions I use! Love the videos ❤

Some cracking ideas there Tom! Just moved to Tynemouth and recognised Whitley Bay straightaway! Must admit, I'm always very nervous of having my camera anywhere near water, especially the salty kind!!

I believe the life-ring is the best capture you've done so far this year, to-date. That was really something.

wow Howdon my old home town crazy never thought a would see you there.

The last seascape took my breath away! Thank you for this different video full of ideas for ‘nothing weather’ which we have endured for so long. I am going to South Uist soon and you have given me lots of ideas to go out even when the weather is nothing.

4:39 the Bicyclist riding out of the pedestrian tunnel is brilliant

Your last photo is to me, by far the best. Thanks from Canada.

I live in Washington so this is very helpful lol, love your attitude man keep it up

You made that such fun to watch. I must admit, I nearly didn't click to watch when I saw the title, but you nailed it. I hope you get the views it deserves (you have "5 Things" in the title so that will help 😉)

Thanks Tom, I'm from your area and can't drive or walk too far, this book will help me with some nice locations, and great discount 😊

Looks just like the conditions I had on my last astro road trip lol great long exposures!

Awesome stuff Thomas! Just need to get myself out into the Welsh drizzle!

Maybe motion blur of the twig in front of the black fiberglass could produce an interesting photograph. Thanks for all your inspirational videos!

I go out on days like that because if I don't go out at least once a week I get really fidgety and feel like I missed an opportunity that I can never get back. I have to take pictures once a week, even if the images are rubbish.

Great video man. Reaffirming a lot of things I like to shoot. 👍📸

Good job, just what I needed!

Hey Heaton, you should consider doing more street photography. Landscape in the winter and street in the summer. High contrast full sun is great for street.

Wow, great photos from a man having fun and enjoying himself, excellent 👍

Love how high-level your tips always are! In the sense that it could be applied regardless of what "type" of bad weather there is

Nice one Tom, for the inspiration! I shall be out with my camera this weekend!… Just a thought or perhaps an idea for a future video… is the opposite to today’s video… instead of high key and light, what about low key and no light… ie like a star scape from a landscape location, you know get some stars and night scapes… it’d be interesting to see your take on it, applying your thoughts and style to it… I think it would work well with some snow covered mountains so they stand out or perhaps as well a calm lake for a reflection. Just a thought anyway and keep up the good work, love ya videos! 👍🏻 Matt

like the way you changed it up a bit👍

Thanks for the tips. Lately it seems that I get either blah conditions or clear blue sky when I have time to go out with the camera,

Thanks Thomas - very inspirational ! Plus I'm off to Budapest soon so will checkout the underground. Plus tomorrow's means to be wet so I shall go for a wonder in the murky grey day :))

Brilliant ideas. Proof that there is always something you just have to think laterally. Thank you.

Your enthusiasm is so infectious it makes we want to charge outside with my camera and have a great time. Thanks as always for your great videos!

Love the life ring shot

Thank you!

Loved the tunnel image amd the mono waterfall and final inage Thomas. Any day to be out with the camera is still a good day in my book.

Thank you

Thomas, you should come visit the Pacific Northwest (in the US) some time! I'd be glad to show you around. Waterfalls and cloudy days are the primary subjects!

living in cali... I mostly struggle with light being just full sun with no clouds.... such a pain in the summer

Unfortunately Thomas, I'm going to miss your 'Talky Bit' at the photography show! I can't make it on the day you'll be there! 😥😥I was hoping to meet you and introduce myself! Oh well never mind!

Good ideas!

The person at 2:45, their smile after getting the video was so so sweet! I love this vid Thomas, inspiration for when i have nothing to shoot :)

Good ideas all. Carry on. 👍🥂

Great feature.

Great video Tom! I think your street photography enthusiast fan's would love to see some content on the streets. I haven't seen much ICM technique on the street photographers channels I follow. You and Gareth Danks would have a blast. Thanks for the inspiration. Its very grey here in Bavaria.

Buckets of inspiration. Thanks 👍🇬🇧🙂

These are my favorite conditions, for all the reasons you mention. Love this kind of photos.

Hi Thomas, I just discovered your channel as I'm looking for camera and tips to record the trip to Scotland in June. Great to be here :)

Great tips.

I love foggy, snowy, frosty, and super sunny days.

Well done on doing grim grim grim. The black and white images are superb, and I really liked the paint patterns on the old boats. Many thanks.

Thomas, that was a GREAT video! Love’n the content! Cheers!

I love that you use square format a lot. It’s always been my favourite crop ratio as it is often more challenging to shoot. Thanks for the tip on the guide book, heading that way to get one, or two or…

Great stuff. Thanks a lot.

The timing is perfect! I have an upcoming trip to a famously weather-challenged island. If I’m lucky enough to get good days, great, but I don’t want to waste any bad days thinking there’s nothing to shoot.

Agree on the Budapest stations. All different colours. Very cool to photograph. Must go back one day 👍

Budapest has some incredible character for interesting images. You're making me want to go back with your photos of the underground!

I love holy island!

Thomas, my favorite was the b&w of the waterfall but the b&w of the post with the pier in the distant background was a very close second. I admire your enthusiasm and creativity.

I understand you will be at the Photography Show in Birmingham. Hopefully I will get to hear you.

I really like the picture of the waterfall! Beautiful!

It's always a pleasure to watch your KZfaq videos Thomas. Lots of enthusiasm for photography and nature. Very inspiring. Thanks!

Thanks!

Great tips for dull winter conditions - I can relate. Thanks for sharing!

I recently took my camera and tripod up onto the South Lancashire moors on a very wet and misty day and came home with some very satisfying, moody, misty monochromes. Now I look forward to that kind of weather.

The first line in this video is literally what I say when I look out the window everyday inbetween October 1st to April 1st 😂😂 Great video Thomas!

Awesome suggestions, I like shooting on rainy days, it can be peaceful and some of the light is amazing!

That last B&W image looks so eerie, like a zombie scene. Great shot!

Even without the audio, that's a great opening scene - and kudos to the Wardrobe Dept. too.

What a great set of reminders! Wish we had some tunnels like that in our town.

Great video Thomas! Some years a go I saw a photo of a black and white image of a landscape with the foreground having some flowers in color. It was then I realized the value of using the contrast of color on a somewhat dreary day.

Great video, one of your best . Thabks

Well done - your enthusiasm is catching

I love your photos, minimalist photography is perfect for hazy weather

Holy Island, Pedestrian Tunnel, Whitley Bay on a grey day.. I love it when you do local. Great stuff !

This was a great combination of on location travel shooting and useful tips.

Im a beginner youtuber for fishing and nature photography etc but you're inspiring me to try Landscapes and minimalist images. That last image of the post and pier was truelly stunning. Thanks Thomas 💙

That last picture was phenomenal 😃 Good job, as always.

This is what we want!! Reality for those of us who can't jet off to exotic places with interesting weather.

Some very good and useful tips for bad weather days very inspirational love your images from the day.

Loved this video so much I've come back and viewed it again - sorry if that messes with your stats! It's easy to get put off by a flat grey day but this proves what a land of opportunity it remains. Brilliant

I haven't watched the channel for a while and lost interest over the last year. But this video has reignited the fire. Thoroughly enjoyed this one and will keep an eye open for more from now on.

Useful video, thanks.

As someone living in a grey Northern seaside town, this video was exceptionally helpful! thank you!

The black and white water fall is my favorite, then the last seascape.

Loved that - just the inspiration I needed when the weather has been so rubbish for so long…

I was in Budapest a few years ago and had a grand time with my camera. OK, my IPhone! Didn't do the underground.

Another great video Thomas. It's given me a lot of inspiration to get out on those type of day's as normally i wouldn't bother as long as it is not pouring down with rain. Great image's as usual. Look forward to seeing your next video.

Thank you! I get more inspired and also learning more from this type of video then viewing a video from a remote location like Mongolia 🙂
