Step 0 - Go to an ABSOLUTELY EPIC Place.

For those wondering..

Epic Counter: 34 spoken and I believe twice it was printed. Now that, Mads.. was EPIC! Well done

[gladysperrier]

Never mind epic photographs. What about epic photographers. Mads listening to you is like poetry.

[pleatedskirt]

You can have THE best lens, body, tripod, filters and everything else, but if you don't have the light, you won't get a good pic. Light alone doesn't make the photograph, but without it no one can - with it, and with the right ability, you can. Excellent video.

Printing your own work is really the greatest reward. I finally got some metal prints of my favorites from NZ and now they’re mounted throughout our apartment. Makes me very happy every time I see them and really puts things in perspective. Seeing the physical location you shot turned back into a physical representation that went through all those digital, intangible steps is a special thing. It really motivates and allows a fresh perspective on one’s own photography.

Great vid Mads!

[mlkrinsky]

Love your authenticity, snd of course your stunning snd creative photos!

[terrygordon]

Great straightforward explanations about the photographic skills involved in landscape photography. Well worth the time to listen to and make notes.

Can only look on longingly from here on the East Coast of Australia, our land is so old that the epic sites have all been ground down. Planes trains and automobiles may have been invented, what hasn't been is the money tree that would shower me in filthy lucre to enable trips to be taken to those wonderful sites you share.. Doesn't stop me watching your posts, saving up my pension money to buy your composition e-books, well worth every dollar by the way, and having pleasant dreams of visiting the sites you show and being young and fit enough to put myself in the shots. Maybe in my next life. 😄

[hamsterneckliving]

The description of the differences between the lens and their uses just gave me multiple AHA moments. Fantastic. Thanks.

[wolftrackphotography]

I'm going to start playing "epic" bingo with your videos 😂😂 I'm kidding, because honestly I love the excitement and energy you bring to the table.

[IIDannyBoyII]

4:03 i actually liked that photo its minimal

[michelbigras]

You've been at so many great locations and come back with so many beautiful photos. Thank you for sharing it with us. Wow!

[ayushkishan]

Sometimes YouTube recommends really marvelous channels

Glad i found you

[erriprakashreddy]

I absolutely loved this video. I myself am amateur photographer and I learned so much from this. Thank you

[Xoot]

I'm always apprehensive of sensationalist titles, but I learned a lot from this video. Also, making a calendar or book with photos from each year as a memory and recap is really satisfying (+ it's a good gift).

[LeonaSim]

I am speechless of nature the one you took it!

[MrCNMW]

Great content as usual. Let me just say, the impact that drones have made to photography cannot be described and is highly underrated. The footage and the perspective is unique 👍. Thank you for sharing this video.

[valeriehoffman]

This was such an amazing video. The images absolutely were EPIC. I want to rewatch it at half speed so I can just savor the scenery more. Mads, your energy and enthusiasm are contagious, and your teaching-inspirational. Thank you for all the work you put into this channel.

[MikeCheong]

Thank you for sharing your steps in creating epic landscape photographs.
Also, I love the idea of printing out photographs into photobooks. I have been making them annually for the past 10 years. They are my archive of all the adventure and travel throughout the years, and also a record of my progress in photography. They are also an important reminder of how much I've done in the past.

Once again, thank you for your kind sharing on how everyone can improve their landscape photography.

sleeping in the engine room of a ferry? you mean in the shared bed rooms in deck 2 of the Norröna? :D funny fact, I slept there despite having booked a normal cabin in an upper deck. But the sea was shaky and I couldn't handle sea sickness, and the stablest place on the boat by far was the deck 2 next to the engine room. So it was a good choice from you :D. To do epic photos, it is super easy, go to epic places (in europe : norway/dolomites/faroes/iceland...), do research to see where to go exactly there, chase epic moments (usually at sunrise or sunset, depends of the weather, which is lottery), stay as many days as possible, possibly months. Use a drone. Add a final epic touch on photoshop.
