My problem with Photography.

I go to take photos along the Nantlle Ridge here in Snowdonia this week, and talk a bit about my big issue with photography at the minute, and mochas... I also talk about mochas.

    Good eyes! I did change my jacket colour to red in those shots! :)

    After 60 years of photography I sometimes find it difficult to get enthused. However watching you walking around Yr Wyddfa takes me back to my earlier years. Now that’s something I could get excited about!!

    Light, post rain, always makes landscape look crisper (less haze and more clarity, naturally), amazing scenery!

    Superb video James! The mixture of humour, spectacular scenery and excellent photos make your videos very watchable.

    The bee distraction is the kind of energy that caused me to finish the first video. Your information shared is why I stayed. I think I need to browse your prints, and I hope to be as good with finding shots and telling fine stories someday.

    Too many vlogging photographers chasing a diminishing circle of enthusiasts. Everyone doing the rounds of the hotspots, Iceland, Faroe Isles, Elgol etc. All taking the same shots. I feel I know the Faroe Isles by heart, I have seen so many photos of the place, and I live 3500 miles from them. I have given up on many of the vloggers, as their content is the same as everyone else's, eg "What's in my bag?", "The only twelve lenses you need". The 4x4 camper van requisite for your photography adventure. Saturation point indeed.

    I agree with your point about being bored with other people’s photos and not enjoying them that much due to over exposure. I am in several photography groups on FB and used to love looking at the amazing photos but I just can’t be bothered with it at the moment.

    100% agree on the over-saturation of photos. It does however drive me to be more and more creative and original. I know that is incredibly hard, but that's where I find enjoyment (apart from getting out of course).

    I completely agree. I find myself having to take in smaller amounts of photos at one time due to every picture beginning to feel the same. I live in a small to average size city and it always seems that the local community of photographers are all posting the same skyline views of downtown. It is hard to find an original vantage point, so I always make it a point to leave a comment letting people know that I appreciate their unique photo. The other thing is drones! It seems that everyone in my area has a drone and now it no longer seems special or unique to see the city from an aerial view. I feel it can be a trap sometimes to emulate great shots that you see your peers taking. When everyone is taking the same shot it decreases the value of the uniqueness factor. Anyways, love the videos and appreciate the content. Have a great weekend!

    Great video James and some spectacular photos. My wife and I have been chatting about trips (Uk and Europe destinations) we want to take once travel opens up and had not really had Wales on our list, but after watching your video together we think it really deserves a visit!!!
