    I continue to be surprised that you don’t get more love in subs. The quality of your photography, your explanations of technique and the overall production quality of your videos puts these right up there with the best pure photography channels IMHO. Keep up the great work.

    I've subscribed, and then unsubscribed to a great many KZread photo sites over the years Todd, but your channel consistently remains my "go-to" for it's excellent and accessible content, along with your travels in some of the most beautiful landscapes in the world. I'd love to see you do something on the Milk River country, perhaps Writing on Stone? Thanks for the inspiration Todd!

    Beautiful scenery and great photos. I’m curious though, wouldn’t it make more sense to exposure bracket instead of using an ND grad? I’ve been tempted to invest in a filter system that can accommodate graduated filters, but for scenes like mountain ranges where the horizon isn’t a relatively straight line, doesn’t a grad filter cause as much of a problem as it solves? Keep up the great work!

  • @toddkorolphoto

    Yes that is definitely another way to do it, I use the filter system because I also shoot a lot of film, and. I do like to get the image as close as I can in the camera, but that's just me. The other problem I was faced was with the moon rising so fast and the clouds moving fast I literally had just moments to try and capture the moon in the right place. ;-)
