I make the occasional YouTube video about photography, and like to share copies on the Fediverse with PeerTube as well.

Creative space is not just a luxury, but often the most elusive ingredient when we seek to grow our skills with the camera. Today I'm talking about the problem of finding space to be creative, and fitting in a little photography around the rest of our lives.

Taking a photo is only half the job. The other half is editing them. Join me on a visit to Gompas in the Annapurna Ranges and a chat about the creative potential and learning potential when editing your RAW files.

New on the blog - "Getting Out of Struggle Town"
Even professionals get stuck in a rut sometimes, but with the benefit of a little inspiration we often find our way out again. On my latest journey through Nepal I found an old tool that helped me see things in a new way.
YouTube is now auto-generating replies to comments for content creators. So now when I look at my new comments, YouTube has already created alternative responses so I no longer have to be genuine or helpful.

I cannot stand fake sincerity, and did not ask for it.
Even professionals get stuck in a rut sometimes, but with the benefit of a little inspiration we often find our way out again. In this video I share some thoughts from my latest journey through Nepal, and the scenery of the Annapurnas.

2,999 YouTube subscribers after a year or so.
I have this one video about how to enjoy the features of the Lumix S5II which gets all the clicks, but my more creative stuff gets a big "booooooo go home" from the algorithm.
I like making stuff that people like. Otherwise it all feels a bit silly.
Resharing my previous video, because looking back on it after a month it's actually one of my very best, and contains excellent advice.
I let the idea of "negative space" guide my compositions through a month in Nepal, and the impact it made for me was powerful.

I took the Peak Design Outdoor 45L Backpack deep into the Himalayas to find out how well this performs as a camera bag, and how tough it stacks up compared to my older and trusted Peak Design Travel Pack.
Take a look!

Thinking of carving up my YouTube page with a playlist of LEAST popular videos because they are the ones I worked hardest on.
Here's the PeerTube version for folks who would prefer to avoid being sucked into the vortex of YouTube :)

Today we’re doing a deep dive in the LUMIX G9II for capturing birds, and explore why the smaller sensor packs such big performance. We’ll compare this camera against full-frame options, and we're going to enjoy the company of some very lovely birds along the way.
