I shoot a lot. Like a lot. Everyday. And I have very good reasons to do so. Come with me as I explore yet another beautiful location here in Norway, and I show you every single shot I take.

Have you thought about a medium format digital camera? For example, Fujifilm has an excellent 50R series. https://youtu.be/3e9dtRupRdo

It's very easy to shoot 400-500 pictures in an hour. The issue is post processing of having to go through so many and the time it takes.
"There's no place to park…" That's the number one issue I have trying to photograph from my car.
Your dedication to your craft is inspirational!
I hope you can make an exhibition in the EU-parliament in Brussels, to make them understand they've no right to make Norway the "green battery" of Europe, destroying it with wind turbine farms.
Absolutely loved watching your process and the subtle changes in composition as you work a scene. And that church!! Wow!
People who try to claim good photographers only press the shutter when it’s a good photo are just trying to make a meaningless ‘profound’ statement. Even those we consider as the masters of photography took many rejected photographs and great photographs we take can often be happy accidents. Also trying out ideas is a huge part of our photography journey.
"It is pretty windy today, so I am going to grab a hat so my hair doesn't go crazy." – Too late! 😉
Buongiorno , artista speciale .. ma umile . Posso chiederle la marca dei filtri per l obbiettivo da lei usati ? Graxie
A video this length must be a huge amount of work. So enjoyable with great images. Thanks Adrian.
As someone who has mobility issues, shooting from the car is sometimes the only option, especially in bad weather. It just goes to show that you don't always need to get off the beaten track to get good images! Living in Norway would help though! 😀 Looking forward to your next vlog. Thank you.
Inspiring! (And interesting to see well known landscape through your camera!) Thank you.
One wish for a coming video: Do you take photos with print in mind; and if so: How, and is it for a spesific size and perhaps and always the same paper?
Keep up the good work.
What a trip…Merciiii Adrian 😍
Another wonderful lesson!…thanks
Thanks for this insight to your approach on photography. This makes a lot of sense to me.
Wow! what a fantastic video you posted! Thanks so so much for giving such a long and detailed on-site lesson/demonstration, whatever you call it, I learned so much. I like a lot the ability of shooting all day long that the B&W approach provides. It really suits to the foggy mountain tops and many other compositions. You got so many good images within a single day, and get to learn from the bad ones anyway.
Funnily, the gut is now considered as the second brain, so shooting with your gut and then editing with your brain makes so much sense 😉 Cheers Adrian !
Thanks Adrian, I'm taking my camera out for a walk tomorrow.
Really enjoying your trip, reminds me so much of NZ
This was exactly my approach in Scotland during September to avoid the rain, wind, and the Midges!
I've been following your IG for a couple of months and this is the first video I see with you in YT. I quite enjoyed the full length of you video. THanks for your efforts, it felt like travelling with you.
@aows … Great video as always Adrian … I so glad that Paul C Smith introduced me to your channel and of course your work. You should really make the journey to NZ and you'll never stop shooting whilst there…. Milford Sound and the south island would blow your mind.
I'm the sort of photographer that will take multiple shots of the same scene and from multiple positions.
Sometimes it only takes one or two, but if the light / or weather conditions are changing rapidly, I'll a few more.
They only time I restrict the shot count is when I'm shooting with film …. that ever more expensive medium.
Living close to and spending a lot of time on Dartmoor, the so called wild campers left a lot of rubbish and caused damage on many places on the moor. This was also the case with people visiting the local nature reserve. Thankfully now we are back to normal the problem has gone away. I see a few true wild campers but they leave no evidence of having been there. Day visitors cause more problems with discarded barbecues ,dirty nappies and rubbish deposited in streams.
Love your channel keep up the good work 👍
AOWS is probably an abbreviation for awesome
Exceptional story telling. Thanks for your honesty and sharing your journey experimenting. Interesting to see many images of same to see your choices and reflections. Good stuff.
this is a fantastic vid…love it
