I'm so thankful for digital photography in that we can shoot to our hearts content and practice our craft without the added expense of film. Also, something that I learned as a hunter and solidified as a hiker/camper is that any time in the woods is a great time to be in the woods. I'm a novis photographer and I am truly enjoying every moment of it.

The place you were shooting in is beautiful. The spread of moss and trees give such a great scene. Also, you captured a rabbit running across your video at T5:13. Looks to be a great place for nature shooting too.

I just want you to know that I enjoy your work and appreciate your photography. Right now I'm on the treadmill with my headphones on you on my Android phone and also on the big screen and I've managed to sync the audio up. My wife is upstairs working and I don't want to disturb her but the racket of my treadmill won't let me enjoy you at full volume thanks for all the trudging around take care. Oh yes and you as the British say cheers.

I experimented with a few things but honestly I’d ditch the jetboil and just take a food flask with something homemade in. I got a decent Thermos one and as long as you pre warm it gets at least 8-10 hours and still red hot. Actually works out lighter overall too.

I use ration packs from ebay with my jet boil, or I use boil in the bag. Basically a chemical reaction boils the water in the bag. Definitely a more compact way of cooking on the move.

I've used both in the forces obviously for different reasons

Batchelors Supernoodles!! Used 'em all the time when canoeing.

Love your enthusiasm and it rubs off on my own work. Thanks for doing what you do

When I was in the Army in Alaska one of the guys in our unit I camped with would take along Minute Rice and a few spices. He would take different main courses from the MREs and mix with the rice over a single burner stove like yours. It was amazing what a tasty meal a handful of minute rice with some of the ham & chicken loaf broken up in it and a few spices could make in just a few minutes. Also handy trick for field exercises, especially in winter. If you or anyone you know has a dehydrator you can dehydrate almost anything. A big bag of frozen veggies compact down a lot when dehydrated. You can even dehydrate things like chili or spaghetti. Take along a baggie or such of your mix and a bit of water on the boil and your premix and you have a quick, but tasty meal.

Henry the cheap noodles are ok, boil the water then drop them it 2 min later soft noodles or the one i use a lot is the naked rice, you can get a small mug and de-pack the rice into a bag so less to carry home..

[jacquelineshaw]

you are a hard worker Henry and have my admiration

[lensman]

Woodlands are all beautiful. If there is a shortcoming, its in our ability to make sense of the natural chaos presented to us. Its our inability to interpret the language of nature. Good photography Henry.

Hi Henry - just had a week in the Lake District and because of weather concentrated my efforts in woodland. Two that I think you might have some fun in are Coombs Wood (just north of Laxonby in the Eden Valley) and Borrowdale on the woodland walk from Ashness Bridge to Watendlath. I caught both when the woodland floor had interest with the ferns just about turning. The Borrowdale walk was probably the most exciting with mostly oaks and birch and loads of moss-covered boulders - and very few visitors which is saying something the week leading up to bank holiday!

[stuartlauchlan]

Great video Henry and great to see the woodland photography going from strength to strength.

[grahamallen]

Henry, you should try photos in Sherwood Forest, there are so many different types of tree, old oaks, silver birch, firs etc. Might be worth a visit. All the best Graham

[robertdavis]

Great location & enjoyed your comments regarding woodlands...cheers..

[robertjackson]

I've just bought that exact ball head, I love it. I normally find the best tree in the forest is the oldest tree.

[Dan-jgzl]

I'm an arborist and I've often dabbled with the idea of taking my GFX camera into the canopy of the tree to see what I can get.

[ChrisJones-idqq]

Hey Henry, I too have rekindled my passion for photography because of your work (along with other young guys such as Simon Baxter Thomas Heaton and more recently a very engaging Scottish photographer called Kim Grant) The common denominator is passion enthusiasm and as always a very generous willingness to share. I love your style and have told my mates about your klinsmann moment in Shropshire! Keep it up mate.

Best foods I always take backpacking that are cheap...Mug Shots and Ainsley's instant couscous. I always doctor them up ahead of time. Add some Dairy Lea to the mac and cheese mug shot and it is REALLY good. I tend to steer clear of the ramen type ones as they aren't so filling or tasty...two packs is too much food for me but probably about good for you. Fresh pasta often only takes 3 minutes of boiling and just take a small tub of sauce to add in.
