Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed it. Certain lenses tend to work in certain places and I used the 10mm a lot in Lofoten. Not so much in the Dolomites where I use a telephoto more

This is definitely one of my favorite areas of my home country! Thanks Andy for the way you explain your compositions, all the theory I read makes much more sense when I see it drawn out and explained like this!

Hi Hamish, good to hear from you. I hope all is well with you. Thanks for the comment, glad you liked the video. Things are alright...we had to cancel the Faroe Islands in April and Tuscany in May, but so far just those. Andrea and I just got back from Iceland last week and were blown away at how incredible it is in winter. We were up in the Highlands in Landmannalauger in a super jeep and it was breath-taking. The only people there, the whole place covered in white...it was absolutely magnificent. I've just finished Skyping with him to discuss the itinerary for the workshop there next year. He's doing fine, we both managed to get back home before the lockdowns closed the borders in both Italy and Portugal. Hope you're doing OK over there in NZ, stay safe

Thanx for a great video Andy. Im missing Lofoten terribly ;-) Love the churchshot with the fence. Brilliant :-) If your ever want to explore the possibilities in the middle of Norway round Trondheim let me know. Lot of different things to shoot here. Take care.

Great video Andy, love the advice how your compositions are thought through. Don’t know how busy you are in these most difficult times but maybe a video giving your camera settings for the Xt-3. Also your thoughts on the Xt-4 if you have got your hands on one. Look after yourself and stay safe.

Hi Alan, thanks for the comment, glad you liked the video. My XT3 settings are pretty much default. I shoot RAW and have the film simulation set to Pro Standard Negative (because what I see on the LCD and EVF and the live histogram are based on the JPEG and NOT the RAW file. Pro Standard Negative is closest to RAW, so this way I get the most accurate exposure preview). I haven't seen an X-T4 yet and don't know when I will as deliveries have been delayed. Also, I like to test cameras in the field, and with my trips cancelled for the next few months it's going to be a while before I can field test it. Maybe something in May, but I really don't know. Hope all is well with you, stay safe

Hi Andy, two things: First, thank you for making your videos about Lofoten and Fujifilm cameras! Because of you I looked more closely at Fujifilm, and ended up getting an XT2 which I love. But much more importantly, you were a big source of inspiration for me going to study a year of photography in Lofoten. There's a photography school in Kabelvåg in the eastern part of the archipelago that I learned about when researching Lofoten after seeing your videos. I sadly had to leave early because of Norway's COVID quarantine measures, but I hope I can finish my year after Easter. Secondly, you should visit the eastern part of Lofoten as well! Although the nature isn't quite as extreme as in Reine, there's lots of beauty there too. I'm hoping that this doesn't come across as shameful self-advertising, but I have a few pictures on my Instagram that might showcase what I'm talking about: instagram.com/henrikbvm/

Last year I also spent a lot of time in the area on the south between Stamsund and Henningsvaer, which was also beautiful

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it. The X-T4 has been put back a little. I was going to receive one and test it in the Faroe Islands next month, but that workshop has been cancelled. At the moment it'll be difficult to test the camera when I receive it, so I'm not sure when the review will be out.

Just recently started watching your videos and absolutely love them. Very informative and straightforward. Thank you so much! A quick question, do you ever do focus stacking? How do you keep the foreground all the way to the background in focus?

@AndyMumford

Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed the video. It's very rare that you need to focus stack with an APS.C camera (I use a Fuji X-T3) as DOF is so long. At 10mm everything from 40cm infront of the lens to infinity is in focus

Hi Juan, thanks for the comment, it is an amazing spot. The images aren't over exposed. There are bright parts where there was strong direct light, and darker shadows. For the two images shot in overcast weather where white was a strong element I pushed the processing to the right to keep the whites clean (darker whites look muddy), but they're not over-exposed.

This place definitely needs to go on my bucket list. The tips on composition are very enlightening. Do you have problems with the corners of the XF18-55 at the long end? My copy is not great and was wondering if it's just copy variation or if this is typical for this lens.
