Damn Nigel, that was incredible! I loved the shot at 3:21 with the ghostly shapes the spray created. Thanks for letting me ramble a bit in your video! 😂

Ha ha!

Three Masters at work! Well done Nigel. Looking forward to the pictures of Michael and Mads as well.

It's always so inspiring to just see how much joy you have during photographing! Thanks a lot! 😊

Wow! It REALLY DOESN’T get better than this! Dramatic. Inspirational. Powerful. You can’t beat a trip to the coast! Thank you, Nigel. I’m watching again and again. Mentally and visually absorbing the ozone!

Wow, you can't beat a good storm. makes such magnificent photos. In regard to composition, due my sight defect I only see the world in 2D not 3D. I have puzzeled long and hard if that makes a difference to composition. I see what you print not what you will see on location. I recently watched your interview with Rick on the making of the film from Scotland. Made me realise that I have followed you from your very you Tube video. Where has time gone. Thank you for another inspirational video.

I got goosebumps from watching this video! Such power in those weaves! The photos are amazing 🙌🏻

Love ❤your work and your jacket buddy ❤

It's so great to see my two favorite photographers in one place and a specially in Ireland!☘️I was watching a little enviously, but at the same time, I was very happy! Beautiful video as always!

Those first images are very reminiscent of the Lord of the Rings scene at the Ford of Bruinen where Arwen summons a flash flood to stop the Ringwraiths from catching Frodo. So impactful!

So nice to see you both having so much fun! Happy kiddos on a best photography playground ❤

Love the video, mate. The "on location" enthusiasm is fantastic, and I am sure inspires a lot of people, including myself, to go out and shoot!

Wow, that was a fantastic video! You've provided so many useful tips! Much appreciated from across the pond. Kim Robitaille Ontario, Canada

Hey that's an old Volvo v40! I loved that car. I had a Pacific blue one.

Beautiful shots!

Hi Nigel. Great videos. Beautiful shots 🫡

Cracking video Nigel. Love the enthusiasm. Irish tourist board should be knocking on your door. ☘Great illustration of what we have on our doorstep. Keep up the great work 👍🏻

I would like to see you do a video on, From start to finish on location setting for camera compositions and why those setting. Think this would be great. Thank you.

Great video. Got the e-book “Doesn’t get better than that!”

insane wave shots, brother!

One of your best recent videos. Thank you!

The last image is by far my favourite, superb! 👏👍😀

It is wonderful to see your joy in photography. Most of my shooting has been aperture priority. I think this is the first time I have seen anyone use shutter priority. Thank you for explaining what you were doing and why. I’ll have to give that a try.

Absolutely terrific, powerful images, Nigel! Love the water, the wind, the light, fantastic work!

Amazing location Nigel... beautiful shots... great to see you back at it and enjoying life.

Another amazing video. I always learn so much from your videos. Love your enthusiasm!

So many of my usual youtube photographers have been suffering from poor lighting conditions your good fortune was a nice contrast. Your video was so much fun to watch, your excitement was infectious; caught myself grinning as you and Michael were so thrilled to be there. It's about time someone got some good light for a change!

There's a bazillion photography videos on KZread, and photographers all over the place. I generally surf around a lot and pick up tips and ideas here and there. Except Nigel Danson. When his new video pops up, I go there straight away. I know it will be a great presentation, a subject I can always relate to, and high quality content. Way to go Nigel! Keep it up. I suspect your fan base is way bigger than you think . . .

Thanks - I really appreciate that

What amazing images! Mother Nature put on a phenomenal show and you captured kit perfectly! Thanks for taking me along!

Brilliant shots! And seeing how they came to be together with your explanations was very interesting as well.

Wow, my two favorite photographers doing what they do best. Thank you both!

Man, I'm so envious of that location and those conditions. Great set of photos and videos. Thanks Nigel!

What a powerfull video, not only the power of the waves, light and Irish weather but also that of the amount of tips and tricks to get a sharper image! Such a series of strong pictures that you produced on that day! Loved the prints in the end and your smile from ear to ear in the field ;-)

Good tips. Ireland looks so awesome

ive been experimenting through learning from people like you and wow happy to say im noticing a difference. Im just a lowly beginner but im really enjoying the learning process. Thank you Love these videos and your easy to understand explanations hints tips and tricks. Thank you.

Memorable! Thanks!

Awesome images, thanks for getting out there. Very inspirational. Phil

A good photography means so many factors

Fantastic wave shots

It doesn't get better than this . . . .and then it gets better!! Hahahaha. The waves reminded me of Rachel Talibart and her Sirens.

Obviously nowhere near your standard Nigel but you perfectly captured the giddiness I experience when chasing around with my camera, there’s nothing better and this video put a smile on my face

I just love your enthusiam and joy in nature. Great images, too. I have the Z6ii and the Tamron 100-400 (with FTZ adapter) and I love that lens

What a great location, love the shots you've taken

Just wow , absolutely stunning images . Fabulous video thank you so much.

Amazing waves plus I love the droplets in the pictures. And a very good collaboration vidéo. Thanks a lot.

Awesome conditions and your images are fantastic.

Most excellent and handy video

Amazing as always, really great video 😃

Your capture of the waves is spectacular “love it” 👍

Superb video. Thank you.

Your excitement is fantastic. What a location

What a great conversation

Gorgeous photography. Many thanks 🙏 🙏

just bought the ebook. It can't get better than that. An awesome ebook! And great video also. This is one subject I want to spend more time on...

Super video and incredible photos. I live on an island in the north Atlantic and we get some outstanding sea surges and wave actions at times. Your tips will definitely come in handy . Thanks so much for this video.

Great waves and great shots!

Great video - delighted you enjoyed Clogher Beach - Dingle penninsula is my favourite place in Ireland - stunning images to be captured there 📷

Thanks great video.

What a simply amazing video Nigel… Been a fan for a long time, but for some reason this shoot really moved me and I felt like I was right there standing next to you as he was shooting the waves! Thank you so much for your ongoing informational videos long time fan keep up the good work, Bob Stafford

Amazing footage and photos ❤ I’m happy not to be the only person who is obsessed with huge dramatic waves 😅 fantastic video Nigel 🙌🏻

Great images,

Fantastic

Impressive images, Nigel.

Great video and photos 🌊

Outstanding video. Thanks for the tutorial about photographing waves. I live on the south shore of Long Island, New York. We very rarely get big waves. Once in a while we do get some big surf and I love taking photos of them with my Nikon 100-400mm lens. Thanks for all your tips.

Really enjoyed your conversation with Michael. Good to hear how you both view the scene and experience. Also, interesting to hear how you float ISO. Thats the way I shoot for most situations. I find it give me more control. Enjoy a pint while you're in Ireland.

Excellent video. Great shots at the beginning and I really like the last 2 prints (A3) that you showed. As for composition, I think you have it mastered and I generally turn to you for tips on improving mine. I shall have to get the e book.

Bother amazing video pal. Your videos help so much and definitely done in a nine boring way keep them up thanks 😊 totally new to photography here

Stunning video Nigel! Really need to pop on the ferry! Oh man just as you said Guinness horses I was thinking the same thing, awesome!

Epic!!!

Great shots there with the "sleeping giant "in the distance 👍

Must have been an east wind (from inland) - very unusual on the west coast, catches the waves beautifully.

Great video, Nigel and super shots. What beach were you on? Might be worth a visit

Great video! Great location! Fantastic pictures! Very well done. Which coast or beach in Ireland did you photograph? Next time I visit my sister in Ireland, that would be a great location. If I had to guess, I would definitely say it's the west coast.

@@josephmansfield2875 Thank you very much for the information. I would have guessed something like that.

Great video Nigel. Thank you for the specs on the shots. Can I ask - if it were to he extremely sunny. Would a polarizer lens filter be a good shout to use?

Great video again Nigel, very inspiring. With regards to photographing this type of scene would you recommend shooting in continuous mode or single shot as the scene changes that much?

I'm a bird photographer, so of course, I would definitely be on high-speed continuous. You would have more choices of the perfect wave/spray.

Bedankt

Great video and tips. What are your thoughts on image stabilization for these shots?

Nice ! Now I wish I lived closer to rocky shores of the Atlantic...

Excellent video, Nigel. Your enthusiasm is infectious. Question for you: do you do anything to protect your equipment, lens especially, from the salt spray in those windy conditions on the beach?

Wonderful pictures and video! What tripod foot are you using here? Was thinking of going with the RRS replacement tripod foot. Thank you!

A nice day at the beach, eh? Carry on. 👍🥂

I was just thinking that the next few months will bring the big surf here in Hawaii. Looking forward to that.

Hawaiian waves! 🌊 👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻

Thanks Nigel, nice video, beautiful waves. One thing I find useful when shooting in those conditions is an offshore wind helps keep spray off the front element/filter. If you face the wind you need to constantly clean the lens. I’m often amazed how much spray ends up on my glasses when I wasn’t even aware it was happening. If I may ask what software did you use to produce your new ebook? John A-T

Just in case nobody told you on the day Nigel, the island in the background @6'52" is Inis Tuisceart. Also known as An Fear Marbh (The Dead Man), or the sleeping giant. You can see why!

Thanks Nigel. Another great video with astounding photos. Purchased your Composition eBook this week and have made my first pass through the book. If I can embrace all those ideas I will definitely become a much better photographer.

Awesome wave photos. I'd be very interested to see how you edited them in Lightroom.

Nice video!! Do you use filter when shooting? Like CPL / GND.... Any suggestion to filter system?

Interesting lens choice for this. Unexpected.

Great video Mr. Danson! May I ask you what paper is the one you printed on to showcase the work at the end of the video? Thank you in advance.

Good morning Nigel! Awesome images! Jealous!! You didn’t list the 100-400 lens.

Great video, was it Dingle?

Inspiring, ta

Nice video, why did you shoot handheld when you got your tripod right next to you ? Was it because of the fast shutterspeed so it wouldn't matter anyway

Gtreat!

Nigel - what kind of a tripod you are using in this video? I really like it - but just cannot find exact match.. what model is this? And awesome video as always!

Any chance of bringing the ebook out as a printed book?

Damn I want to shoot such waves so badly. I've never had the chance for now! I may have missed it, but as I understand it, you don't use burst mode for photographing the waves?

Around 15:00, was that Mads up on the cliff?
