In this video I'm joined by Mark Wallace
as we take on two
Location Photo Challenges.
Hello I'm Gavin Hoey, hey
I’m Mark Wallace and you're watching
AdoramaTV brought to you
by Adorama the camera
store that has got everything for us
photographers and today you join us down
on Brighton beach for
a Pointless Photo Challenge
I think pointless is the word
isn't it? Because we don't know what's
going to happen. We’re going to get a
series of envelopes with some photo
challenges,
but we don't know what they
are and why we're doing them.
We just know their wacky.
Okay shall we go and do
the first one? Yes we're going to go to
Brighton, let's do it!
Photographers don't always have time
to exercise. That's true.
For, what is this? Prove that it's
possible to take a great photo
whilst running, whilst running how do you say that?
Whilst. Whilst. While we are running.
You have 15 minutes starting now!
So this doesn't have autofocus but I do
want to shoot RAW, I do want to shoot,
I'm going to use a different camera. I’m using
my GoPro Hero5. No this shoots RAW,
I'm doing it let's go! Woohoo!
What am I getting myself into?
Right shooting RAW GoPro Hero5
Wait a minute,
just look at the, look at the,
look at the thing again.
Just a minute.
The devil is in the detail,
photographers don't always have time
to exercise, prove that it's possible to
take a great photo whilst running.
It doesn't say I've to run
with a camera.
I've got a better idea,
this way.
This is how you spend 15 minutes
you spend the time setting up,
you don't just run off,
like a madman
because that would be
crazy time.
Oh this is ridiculous,
sorry I'm doing a crazy video.
It's a dare, I'm sorry. Oh okay.
12 second self timer
I can do this, I can run across there
in 12 seconds ready here we go okay.
Ooh, shall we go,
alright seven, six, five, four.
Let's see,
oh these are brilliant,
brilliant, these are the worst
pictures I've ever taken.
No these are not,
I should maybe run again.
I should run, I should run, oh!
Fingers crossed.
One more go.
One more time.
Are you still going? Yes.
Right here we go, go!
I, I'm going to break my ankle I think
I hurt myself?
Okay. That's enough.
I seriously hurt my ankle.
Ten, nine, eight, seven, six,
five, four, three, two, one,
take the picture.
I'm not running back,
if this doesn't a work?
Mark wins,
by default. Let's have a look?
Yes!
I'm done.
Wow!
You win!

and footwear you can find.

hate it, I’m so bad at it.
I'm far too British.
A man with a beard, okay.
I wouldn't worry I've got it on
self timer from the last challenge.
Why isn't it taking any pictures?
Oh yeah, because I'm on self timer.
A man with a beard.
