what lens do you use?
I knew a girl named Deh-bree.
Price of your equipment is a joke. It's as though you are taking the piss out of us.
You great, I learn alot with you. Please which tripod is that please. Regards from Perú.
Top tip about white balance and overcast days. It took me a while to get out of the habit of auto WB. My camera does do a a good job of getting it fairly accurate, but it wasn't until i started setting purposeful kelvin levels and carrying a white card to set a custom WB that my nature images began to remarkably improve and have life to them.
ICM images….what is ICM?
what is woodland?
How do you describe the difference between a "Polarizing Filter" and a "ND Filter" and how do you choose to use one or the other..? Thanks Great Video..

So pity, that you speaks so fast, too fast!
If you want to find some good fungi find a pine forest.

Second video I’ve watched from you… great video, and much appreciated.
A brand new photographer thanks you. 🤙
taking into account your a professional and I'm an amateur, the mushrooms DOF seemed to narrow to me, or for my tastes in photography I would have gone for a longer DOF
Where is photo of mushrooms?
I agree with the prior posting. One of the best instructional documentations of considerations in one's shooting process that I have seen.
