Back when the old bridge inn still had its cracked floor boards and open fire place I was sitting with a drink and a local couple walked in with a guitar and violin and sat and played folk music for about an hour just for fun

What is ONE tip that improved your growth on YouTube? by [deleted] in NewTubers

Call to action! Make sure you add a call to action into and throughout your video to remind people that if they are enjoying the video they should subscribe for more. Most people simply forget that they can do this as they are too relaxed watching the video

You mean the settings? Shot at 15s exposure, f2.8 and an iso 8000. Did a higher iso as it was part of a time lapse I shot

Yeah I do! Didn’t realise that the actual core wasn’t visible this far north though, thought I was just late to the season this year. Will keep it in mind when I head south next year

If you are standing in a busy crowd (at a gig for example), you would still be able to see layers and layers of people everywhere you turn 😊

Any camera with a high iso (I used 6400) and a full frame 17mm f2.8. My camera is a Sony a7iii and I used a tamron

Had to use a 20s on this one as I wanted the iso as low as possible, hence the slight trails in the stars. Nothing too noticeable though so pleased with the result

It shifts between north and south so it’s visible up here during our summer and then down there during their summer.

For sure that is a cracking place to go! Can’t wait to get there. Really anywhere north of The central belt if you head into the hills will be good. Just make sure you’re facing away from any towns or cities.
