Cloudy Day Photography – Mike Browne
You can shoot awesome photos on cloudy days. I get asked ‘How to do photography on cloudy, grey, overcast days’ a lot. Look at the light qualities (not quantity) and compose images around the light.
I’m back in Zurich at Pfäffikersee lake where I do the Zurich Masterclass. Last time it was sunny, so this time lets go find some grey day photos

I would attempt at the two gliding ducks at 6:00–6:10 from a lower point (kneeling) at f11, 5-7 burst frames. Might work well with the farther shore landscape shot. (Which is good in its own right though.)
Beautiful place
Love love love the light capture. Much to learn.
Thinking about buying my first dslr camera soon. This is really helpful.
I always love you videos, feels like I'm with you at the same place.you're bringing us with you.
Yip! What a hip Photographer- Trousers!!! I love it!!!
I keep watching the 🦆
the fart was a worthy addition
Great vlog!…I've watched several of your videos before and have now subscribed…I like your down to earth and natural delivery, and pure enthusiasm for photography, which I find both infectious and inspirational…It just goes to show how great shots can be captured in all weather and lighting conditions…a lot of people, especially those new to photography, would immediately dismiss an overcast day as a no-goer on the photography front, but I think you have demonstrated very nicely just how worthwhile it can be..great shots by the way!
as usual you explain it in common sense language , really enjoy your videos I learn a lot thanks Mike.
My favourite one was the one of the dock in a 'T' shape at 17:28. I love the colours and the composition of it. The banks and hills on the left and the docks reflection on the still water. I'd have it on my wall. Not sure why you left the branches on the right side in. Looks a bit weird but doesn't detract too much! Loved the video – unfortunately we have too many days like this here:)
Do you edit your photos in Lightroom or other programms ?
You won't see much sun this year. They are geoengineering the skies with so called contrails. I think this summer will be the one and only summer that's going to be a winter. This women has videos showing spraying out of the skies. https://youtu.be/k-CreJdDZq0. YouTube and social media is being suppressed as they don't like their objectively seen. The spraying is planned up until 2090 Exeter is real bad as they are now changing the weather within 3hrs, all done without the planets consent of course.
Not yet subscribed,but just discoverted your video.Couple of questions.Do you use back button focussing?Do you meter to the rightside on your histogram,to obtain best details?Do you mainly use a full frame or crop sensor camera(sorry that the quistion is gear orientated)
Haha, there is a great picture walking behind you at 10:39. Nice helpful video. Thanks Mike
Looking at the boats I can see a picture from the other end getting them in a line, it just stands out to me watching the video….
Awesome stuff.
Great lesson! Challenging yourself in less than inspirational settings is exactly how you break the mold!
Nice work, thanks for sharing.
Did you see that moorhen in the pier vid?
Decisive moments in landscape photos, gotta love em!
Love the way you think aloud
"something you need to put cream on" lol good one.! Well you motivated me to go out and take some pictures …thank you , Sir!
