The ULTIMATE trip | My 2024 Antarctica Photography Experience

So many great photographs to see in this episode. It’s almost a shame that they are just shown for such a short time. No wonder you made a book out of this amazing collection!

Hi Adam! Looking forward to seeing you at the Photography Show next week! 😊😊

Panos rule, definitely in Antarctica.
Thanks for sharing again Adam.

It was a pleasure sharing the time in Antartica with you Adam. Ireally enjoyed watching this and seeing your view of our time there. Gorgeous images too 👍🏻 Hopefully see you at the NEC!

Great video Adam. I love the landscape and I am a penguin fan.. the video went way too fast.

Thanks for butchering my name in the best way possible! ❤

Great video, really enjoyed the insights into visiting Antartica. On my bucket list but probably not gonna happen. I will however see you at Birmingham I hope!

I was genuinely bowled over by the quality and colours in your images Adam. I don't know whether it is attributable to colour science, lens or editing prowess, but they are some of the best, if not the best, I've seen of the Antarctica.

That was a really nice video Adam. The photos were great.

Hopefully I'll see you at the show on Sunday

What an amazing workshop that must have been! Glad your luggage caught up with you, Adam. I know what that’s like! I’ve just watched Mads’ version of Antarctica, and it’s wonderful to see the different perspectives and images you both shot! Loved it! A fantastic experience for you all!🇦🇺

Adam, I also went there in 2008. A piece of very sage advice from our National Geogpahic photographer on board told us to yes, take pictures, but put our cameras down and actually look at what you are seeing. How cool was that?

Great video Adam, was a fantastic trip and incredibly overwhelming. Love the images i the video and looking back at mine now just reminds me what a wonderful time it was.

Hopefully see you at the NEC at the weekend.

Stunning images. And amazing how each trip has been so different. A missing bag though. . . .crikey. That would have stressed me beyond belief!!!!

A fascinating insight into the commitment required on such a trip Adam. The final shots in particular are sublime. Thank you for taking the time to record the footage and share it.

Congratulations on the underwear thing.

Loved this Adam. It was an amazing trip. Will live forever in the memory but this video will help. It was great to meet you. Linda

Like a lot of people, I'm unlikely to ever go due to cost, but your video really gave a sense of the trips you have made... thank you for letting me tag along ...

Amazing landscape 🤩

I'm glad you included your thoughts on how your attitude and approach were different on all three trips. While planning and goals are good, one thing I have learned from you, and a few others, is not to make high expectations that, if not met, can spoil the excitement of an adventure, but rather just be open to making the most of each location. Also, this was timely as I recently attended an annual dinner of our local Audubon club and the speaker was a fellow who has been to Antartica, and all over the world actually, photographing all eighteen species of penguins! Although his mission was not solely photography, your video augments the joy (and tribulations!) of travel and nature. P.S. Karen is a saint for saving your behind - literally!!

Your images are stunning. I think relaxing & enjoying the scene made a difference.

Funny thing, Adam, when you mentioned your lack of attention causing your flight problems, I was reminded of losing your Antarctica booklet. I ordered it several years ago along with a calendar. The calendar had one destination as a Christmas present and the booklet another. So I separated them and haven't seen the booklet since then. It's in the house somewhere and someday I or someone else will find it and be delighted. At least I think that this all happened. lol

Fantastic video and images Adam! Glad you shared your journey with us…and glad to hear your luggage caught up to you!

What stunning images Adam!! THe travel plan sounded like a worst nightmare for any traveler.... Close attention to departure times is critical, i'm sure you will agree!! So gland you made it there and captured such a magnificent portfolio of images.

A lovely body of images sir, well done! You need some merch designed around that baby seal ;-)

Great film Adam, proof if it was needed why I think your work is outstanding ! 😀👍👏

Beautiful
Thanks for sharing 😊

Outstanding

Whew, amazing photos, video footage, and story interweaved in. Antarctica is on my list to visit and hoping to go sometime soon. This definitely pushed it higher up the list!

Thank you very much for bringing me back to Antarctica. I was there in January and didn't even mind the seasickness on the Drake. As you remarked, I love the 24x65 crop in the Fuji GFX, too - especially the possiblity to change crop in the editing. Sometimes I decide of using the full format instead of the crop.

So great to meet you Adam and loved seeing your perspective of the trip, the shots are stunning.
Hopefully catch you at the NEC!

Beautiful ❤❤❤

Great trip, and awesome pictures! Thanks for sharing.

Even though you said your second trip was toward the end of the pandemic, it has not ended. The SARS-CoV-2 virus still kills thousands of people around the world each month, saddles still more with chronic symptoms known as Long COVID, and continues to evolve, with the highly transmissible JN.1 variant recently causing waves of infection across the globe.

great pictures

Sorry, which camera did you use to take those magnificent photos, thx

Superb video Adam. You’ve captured the essence superbly.

Stunning pix! 👍

It looks wonderful! I like your images better than some from from another traveler in your mentioned group. All are good I just like yours better.

As always your pics make me exceptionally envious, I did see you at the NEC which I really enjoyed, I bought the filters you gave me advice on, and for me and ease of use they are superb so thank you for that.

Fantastic photos!

Can I ask when you goes on those kind of trip, how many camera body (GFX 100S) you will bring ?
Thanks for the video

Adam, wonderful video. I really appreciated the photographs you took and appreciated even more you sharing your mindset on the three different trips to Antarctica!

What ball park figure do these trips cost?

Adam, I somehow missed this video, so late to comment. Firstly, I loved the series of photographs at the end using the play of light to create almost abstract dreamy landscapes. I was also interested in your thoughts about using different aspect ratios in camera as a reference for when you bring the image into post. I can never understand photographers who don't do this and just leave it to post to work out what might work. In my opinion, it is one of the best features of modern cameras. It allows you to frame precisely to an aspect ratio at the point of capture and not have to second guess it might work.

Your photography is amazing and inspiring Adam!

What is the best setting for point and shoot cameras as well as Android smartphones (Samsung Galaxy s23)?

Great photos

Thanks for sharing the wonderful experience. Your photos are wonderful and breathtaking.
