Can You Help Me With an Experiment?
Hey awesome blog reader… can you help me with an experiment? Below you’ll find five of my favorite videos from my YouTube channel. A mix that covers photography, travel, post-processing, AI and Machine Elf. I’d love it if you’d pick whichever one appeals most to you and watch a bit. That can be a minute or whatever but I’d love it if you actually watched (and hopefully enjoyed!) the whole thing.
I’ll chat more in a future post about the experiment. Mysterious I know… 😀

Video 1: My latest AI creation. A bit of fun for Halloween. I think it’s extra cool through headphones.

Video 2: Join me for a walk along the beach on the west coast of Scotland at sunset. This 360 video covers a whole bunch of topics that were on my mind that evening… think of it as a laid back vlog.

Video 3: An artistic drone video featuring footage from my travels across the planet.

Video 4: A chunky Machine Elf creation with epic soundtrack.

Video 5: A quick look at my latest preset pack for Lightroom and Luminar.
Thanks in advance for your help with this. It is appreciated. 🙂
Fun to Play
If you’ve been interested in the image to video stuff I’ve been playing with and want to try it for yourself, for free then check out Kling AI as you can register and get some free generations to play with. (I’ve no affiliation with them, just a nice free thing to try 🙂 )

Moving On…
Daily Photo – Moving On…
Still working on the new Presets… soon, soon! This is my place here in New Zealand! I’m actually in the middle of selling it… I literally have no idea what I will do next. I feel drawn to Japan lately… maybe I’ll get a place there for six months or a year… or maybe even Scotland. I figure the universe will let me know. We seem to have pretty good communication lately, as you may be aware if you’ve read my latest book!
Breaking a Society
Saw this report in the news today talking about how a remote tribe in the amazon got internet for their village and now just 8months later they have issues with people being stuck on their phones all the time. The result being struggling for people to do the hunting and other tasks the village rely upon to survive. Quite crazy it was so quick to eat into their way of life (the report does note some benefits like they can now get quicker help for snake bites, etc but there was a bunch of quite negative aspects overall). Still, worth a look.
Above the Bath(s)
Daily Photo – Above the Bath(s)
After we finished our hike through the Baths, we went up to a little restaurant on the top. It was a perfect place from where to launch the quadcopter. Sometimes when flying you forget to look down because the views are often great all around but on this day, fortunately, I remembered.
Drone Coolness
I know it’s not photography related but you guys know I love my drones… crazy what they’ve built here…
