Connection via Solitude - Landscape Photography and YouTube Success with Thomas Heaton
Manage episode 318411367 series 2585710
Today’s guest is Thomas Heaton.
Thomas is a landscape photographer and YouTuber.
His YouTube channel has attracted over half a million subscribers and features weekly video blogs of his photo shoots in some of the most stunning locations on earth.
I’m neither a photographer nor into nature. But there’s something magical about the way he films the process of spending hours and sometimes days in pursuit of a single photo.
I’ve been a subscriber and huge fan of Thomas since the early days of his channel, and it was such a treat to spend an hour discussing creativity as a serious pursuit.
Our conversation ranged from the power of publicly admitting your mistakes, to the battle against repetition in pursuit of expertise, how he approaches storytelling, getting into a flow state, the role of intentionality in creativity, loneliness, and the role of luck in success.
And of course, Thomas shares his story of a chance encounter with lasting impact, and gives one critical piece of advice to young professionals trying to make it in this crazy world.
