Landscape Photography - My Favourite Phots Of 2018

I'm a landscape photographer and vlogger from Anglesey.

And I mostly photograph and film Snowdonia and North Wales.

This is a very quick spin through 40 videos I've produced in the last year.

At the start of the year I made no firm resolutions.

Other than perhaps a general intention to not put myself under any pressure at all - after all this is just a hobby and should always be very enjoyable.

So I guess my enthusiasm hasn't waned one bit, since I managed 40 videos in just a year

By far the greatest highlight for me this year is making contact with and actually meeting so many fellow landscape photographers, some vloggers and even subscribers.

That's been utterly brilliant and I'll definitely be doing much more of that in the coming year.

Now last year I did set out to produce an occasional "off the beaten track" episode to share some secret little places of solitude for when the crowds roll in.

And I think they went pretty well.

But I still have plenty more to cover, and they'll run well into the next year or so before I'm even close to repeating myself.

Also a plenty more locations with some industrial heritage.

But as some of you will now I was having mobility problems a while back and it got me thinking about locations where you can get some great shots just a few yards from a parking spot.

I know some of my viewers can't get about so much, especially not off over the hills lugging wild-camping gear! So I'm also going to drop in some locations in an occasional "park and shoot" series.

Other than the general themes I've mentioned, I'm also not short of iconic landscape photography locations in this part of the world.

So when the conditions are right, no doubt there'll be a few more vlogs from those locations and my nearest couple of beaches every now and then! Very sorry about that, but sometimes it just has to be all about Me Me Me!

I do hope you can come along for the journey in the coming year. I can't thank you all enough for the great enthusiasm and support I get for my stuff on this channel.

I really appreciate you watching, and if you haven't done it already, why not subscribe now and join me next time?!

For someone who does photography as a hobby, your channel is superbly professional and your images are as good or better than any professional landscape photographer I follow. You are an amazing talent and a delightful fellow to watch. Good luck in the next year and onward.

David - you're one of the half dozen best photographers that I follow here on YouTube, completely without airs and a natural communicator. looking forward to your journey during 2009. Have a good one!

There's a lot to be said for working on the same manor intensively, while working the gear you have to its limits. This channel helps me believe I made the right choice in following such s way of thinking. And your stunningly good photography also provides a level I aspire to get to. Brilliant channel 👍

Very enjoyable watch Dave..I thoroughly enjoyed some of your best moments from 2018, and you have a really wonderful collection of photos from a beautiful part of the world. Really looking forward to our collaboration very soon, and getting to see some of the beautiful locations close to where you live 😊 I hope you had a great New Year

Wonderful images captured here David, 2018 was a good year, Kudos.

David, thanks for your 2018 run down. All beautiful choices even though some of my favorites didn’t make your list. Hugs and love to you & Jan.

Quite an impressive selection that rivals anything I've seen on youtube. You are a perfect example of someone that knows their gear and how to use it to it's full potential. Happy new year and thanks for sharing

[BrianHorsey]

Thanks, David. A nice collection, selecting the images must have ben difficult. I’m a sucker for drone footage of the areas I only see on foot, would a vlog of just drone sequences be feasible? Hope we may get to meet up next year. Cheers!

Well, that was a very pleasant 6m.23s mate. You really did capture some corking images throughout the vlogs, congrats. As ever they were presented in your very informative, easy going style - something that does not get the credit it deserved methinks. Wishing you all the best for 2019.

[jimhowarth]

Love watching your blogs, beautiful images and clear instructive dialogue, thank you.

[SteveONions]

[hughgillings]

A great reflection of your 2018 photography and vlogs. Really pleased to have found your channel. Great images, great presentation - still can't believe you have so few subscribers - you deserve better. Hopefully we'll meet up in 2019 and go on a trip to capture some of the wonderful scenery found on Anglesey - best wishes.
