Welcome to my channel. This is the home of Paul G Johnson, Landscape Photographer. I would very much like you to follow me through my journey of enjoying stunning scenery behind the lens of a camera.
I live in West Yorkshire in the village of Almondbury just outside the town of Huddersfield. I am married to my lovely wife Andrea and have two wonderful children, Evelyn and Matthew.
My full time occupation is as a musculoskeletal podiatrist dealing with sports injuries and i am lucky enough to work with some great athletes both professional an amateur. I have clinics in Sheffield, Manchester and Huddersfield.
My passion is landscape photography and i have been taking pictures on and off for over 30 years. In the past i had my own darkroom and learnt some interesting techniques which transpose well into modern software like Lightroom.
I mainly shoot with a D850 nikon camera.

Landscape Photography | 5 Locations in ONE Day | Lake District | UK
The Lake District in the United Kingdom is a stunning location to take images. On this day, I attempted to get to 5 Locations that are iconic in the Lakes. Conditions were challenging to say the least but isn't that always the case when taking photographs ?
In the description I have included broad information as to where I took the shots .

Landscape Photography | Inspiration & Insomnia
Переглядів 4,2 тис.3 роки тому
For many years we have always watched you tube. It's part of life. Back in 2016/2017 I was lucky enough to be part of the early people who uploaded my Landscape Photography adventures onto the platform. Maybe I inspired others to follow that path, I don't know. However i do know that even to this day I get inspiration from the you tube space. Every day I watch and learn, from both photography a...

Sometimes life gets in the way of things you love. Unfortunately this happens to us all. I love landscape photography and the quiet meditation that it affords me.

Recently however I had more important things on my mind. my darling...
Landscape Photography | Difficult Seascapes

I think the best thing about taking photographs, other than the experience, is making an image when you think there is no way, one can be had. That can often be in difficult conditions, when it's raining and your kit gets wet. It can be when it's windy and your tripod isn't playing ball or in can be when. your hat falls off and you think ...... why am I here? Shooting at the coast will bring yo...

Landscape Photography | A Virtual Woodland Workshop
Переглядів 4,9 тис.3 роки тому
An a cold and windy afternoon I ventured out for a walk with the dogs, camera in hand. The stills camera stayed in the bag as conditions were terrible. However this gave me a great opportunity to discuss the elements that make woodland photography work whilst out in the Landscape. Emphasis on light and textures, rather than composition and settings is key. UA-cam :- ua-cam.com/video/UdsOmBX_dEM...

Landscape photography holds many pleasures for me at different levels. As well as being excellent meditation from the rigours of everyday life, it also gives me the opportunity to explore new locations and their history. Bolehill in the Peak District is an old disused quarry which provided the stone for the building of the Howden and Derwent dams. In the early 1900s it was a hive of activity wi...

Images were taken on two separate days and the weather and natural obstacles made taking the photographs I saw in my minds eye, difficult to capture.

By the way, I love how you processed the images in such a "painterly" way. I really like photographs that have that look and feel to them.
Sure miss seeing Paul out on photography adventures. Decided to re-watch this video today. Perhaps just as a bit of nostalgia. 🙂 I realize life gets in the way of having time to do UA-cam videos. I struggle to find time for photography without even having a UA-cam channel to deal with on top of it. Regardless of any algorithm, if you manage to get out again and post, there are still many of us subscribed that will tune in. PEACE
2:50. beautiful image
Thank you
We miss your vids Paul we hope you are well C&C in Nottingham 👍
Thank you going there in April😊
Watched this video a few times now and never get sick of watching.miss your videos but you've got to do what feels right for you.Hope you're keeping good.
Thanks buddy . All good and hope you are well
Excellent video Paul and you captured some great images. Let's have more videos like this please 🙂
Lovely set of photos I am coming to the UK next mth can you tell me places in the Lake District that a easy to get to as I am just getting over a broken ankle please. I love taking photos as my hobby 😀

Sorry for sounding prude but Just need to make sure that you're still with us and ok as we don't hear anything from you on any social media anymore 😮😮
All good here . Thank you so much for asking x
Thanks Paul for the incredibly useful tips and stinning photography
Paul, you OK?
Grand thanks Dennis
Wheal Owles was the setting for Poldark's mine known as Wheal Leisure in the TV series. The mine works you were photographing is known as the Crowns. Yes that spit of path leading out to that view point can make your heart pump faster especially when it is really windy. 😁
Hello from Canada Paul. Hope you're doing well my friend.
Wow absolutely stunning captures, where did you study photography, your better than alot of the youtubers I've seen.
Thank you . Studied on a the hills . Age is my friend as I’ve been taking images for over 30 years

Found you because of your visit to Yorkshire Wildlife Park with Gary Gough.Late to the party, but off for a weeks photography stopping in Bangor/ Holyhead in 3 days. Will have a go for a sunset. Thanks for this, will work my way through your others. Looks like you don't put much out these days, hope you haven't stopped enjoying your photography
Please come back soon mate, UA-cam is kinda boring without Paul Johnson popping up every now and again 😐😑😔
For a photographer, I was surprised you didn't compensate for the backlighting in the car at the beginning. Otherwise well done.
Commodore 64, gotta love retro tech.
Just popping in to say I hope you're doing great and are well. Miss your videos. But don't feel pressured to anything. Just wanted to say hi and that you always inspire me to head out there and enjoy nature. Cheers,
Some beautiful pictures there!

Hi Paul, I miss watching your vlogs. You are forever so generous sharing your tips. I am so happy to find one of your now and again. Keep well 👍
Thanks Jenny
Hi, firstly your final images are amazing. Very very nice. Can you share the locations, specifically the location of the 2nd shot please. Purhaps I missed it in the comments of video?
I love your work. awesome photography. I have sent a message. hope it helpful for you
These are some of the most stunning landscape photos I have ever seen! I think this is maybe the second video of yours that I have watched and it is so fun and easy and you make the video flow so well! I really am looking forward to seeing move from you. I have seen you on the pubcast for several videos but now watching your channel vids! Great images mate! Cheers!
Thank you Steve .Glad you enjoyed the images
Hello, my friend. 🤗💕 Awesome upload. 👍 See you.😘✨
Gorgeous conditions and beautiful images Paul! I haven’t been to Holme Fell yet, but I can certainly see why it is so popular! S
I had watched your video already Paul and thought it was awesome first time round but on the back of what Darren said on this week’s Photography Pubcast I decided to go back and have another watch, apart from your amazing photography, the place is just amazing very much a dream to me….but really appreciate all your efforts in bringing us this video…this place sure makes the hair stand up……Landscape photographers Paradise. Take Care, Stay Safe, matey.
Stunning shots!
Brilliant just brilliant as always. Not seen any of your videos for ages even though I also have the bell ticked your videos never show 🤬 so I had to manually search the good thing is I have a few videos to binge on 😀 all the best Paul ..
Thanks Shaun
Thank you for the recommendation Paul, James is new to me and, as you say, he is spot on. Enjoying your videos, even if I am somewhat behind.
Thanks buddy
Watching you for inspiration for 2022! Happy New Year!
@@Philhellene1 happy new year and Peace x
Roony! Brilliant
It's amazing how consistent you are Paul. Just going back through your old videos and your message has always been a constant one. This vlog was mentioned in your chat with Mali Davis and you said then with him too. The photo didn't matter, it will always take you back to having a great day with Adam and your dogs :)
Thanks buddy
The dog part did make me laugh! Did you meet the guy bellowing?🤭😂😂
No but I met his wife x
Hi Paul. What an awesome video you have captured here here, just loved the swirls yo have manage to capture it reminds me of “ Tree Knots “ Had many good holidays in Betws - y - Coed over the years…This place is a “ Photograph Paradise “ Thank you very much for sharing your experience with us
Thanks John
Hi Paul. You have captured the essence of Betws perfectly. Best regards Robin
Thanks Robin
Sorry, bit late to this. Really enjoyed the video. The two silver birch images at about 8:30 and the final one are beautiful. Loved the way you processed them.
Hi Paul, had the chance to watch the video tot he end just now. I wanted to say, I think you are right to not worry about the UA-cam robot. For me the reason I occassionally go out with the camera is to get out and switch off them all tech (camera not counting) and relax and take in the landscape. The reason I really liked your channel back in 2016/17 was that you were a normal guy, going to locations a fat lad like me could actually get too. I do like the other youtubers that seem to live like Sir Shackleton armed with mountaineering geer and snow shoes, wild camping on top of Mount Everest. That is all good but I prefer the realistic stuff. Keep on going! :)
Thanks buddy . Lovely comment and very much appreciated x
Hi Paul, sorry to hear about your mum, it must be a very hard thing to go through. I am glad you are back posting, you are one of a few youtubers and inspired me to get a camera in 2017. I hope you find the time to continue UA-cam.
Up for sunrise and then you get the shot later in the day only 20 seconds from home :) That just about sums up landscape photography ;) Great image at the end and well done on the weight loss!
It does buddy and Thankyou
Last three shots - just stunning. Paul what software do you use and do you use presets?
I use Lightroom Steve . I have many presets that I’ve created over the years from previous edits . Thanks for th comment and glad you like the shots
Superb Paul. Those images were fabulous. Beautifully edited. Thank you
Paul, sorry to hear of your loss. As the maori say "kia kaha" - keep strong/staunch. Be yourself - look forward to seeing your top-notch videos again when you are ready. Keep safe.
Excellent Paul, so glad you is back.
Thanks Paul
@@PaulGJohnsonphotography You're welcome, it's the unsaturated tones that really make your photo's stand out. They are really good.
@@paulcrawley7321 thanks Paul , cameras tend to lead towards rich images but i see something different when shooting so tend to go left with the saturation slider
really good descriptions of the compositions you are seeing, plus the settings you use on your Nikon camera, excellent video. thank you for sharing...
Thanks Alex
Beautiful set of images there mate. Particularly enjoyed the last two.
Cheers buddy
Great vlog nice to see you back on UA-cam , loved the images what are your thoughts on the 70-200 f4 do you think it’s a better option than the 24-200 ?
