In this video, I capture images at Rydal Water and Elter Water in the Lake District using the Nikon Z8 and various lenses.

The Lake District, with its picturesque landscapes and serene lakes, is a photographer's paradise. One of the most magical experiences a photographer can have in this enchanting region is capturing the beauty of misty mornings. As the mist weaves its way through the hills and valleys, transforming the landscape into a dreamlike scene, every photographer's heart skips a beat.

My pal Tony and I headed to the Lake District to capture a few early morning images. We were hoping for, as we all do some interesting conditions. This time of year, you can usually expect a cold morning, frosty grass and possibly a little dusting of snow on the fell tops. While the conditions were far from our expectations, we were treated to some incredible sights. Flat-calm water with quite a bit of mist weaving its way through the trees. As a landscape photographer, you couldn't want for anything else. We knew the misty conditions wouldn't last long, so we found ourselves running around like mad fools, trying to take advantage of these rare conditions.

I was happy with the images I had created at first light, but then something magical happened. The sun rose above the Fell and burst through the mist meandering its way through the trees. What an incredible sight!

I hope you enjoy the video.

P.s. I recorded this video on the 23rd of last month. It was only my second trip away with the camera.

    I think Gary needs to have some merch with "look at that"! Written on it. He says it in every video lol. Great pictures as always.
  • Spectacular cave and photo Gary. Maybe I might give HDR another go.
  • cracking vlog, some brilliant long exsposures, been to these locatios a few time it's just brilliant.
  • @clarkbarrow6750
    The long exposure of the boathouse was extremely nice. I also really liked the interior of the cave while looking outside at the view. But what I liked most of all was your technique of fading yourself out of both the video and audio while explaining something. It gave me a chuckle and I think it’s a brilliant move on your part in creating something a little different and interesting in your videos. Well done!
  • @antonoat
    Great stuff Gary, more fabulous photos! Good to hear your positive comments re the Z8 too.
  • @edphoto
    Think Nikon should give you that z8 either free or at a big reduction... You and your photos would be a fine ambassador for the brand 👍 great photos and great video!
