Hi just found your channel and subscribed. Interested to know what type of containers are on you roof, right hand side, are they 3 fuel containers? What brand?
Hi duncanm6589 The containers are a brand called RotopaX rotopax.com/ These take 7.5 litres of fuel (petrol or diesel) each but I can get 8 litres into each comfortably. They where brought because the size of them allows them to sit almost level with the lip of the roofrack as I didn't want to increase wind resistance anymore than I have to. They are expensive though at AU120.00 each some 8 years ago. Also they can be hard to source in Australia but I believe worth it for what I wanted to achieve.
@susanelainesanner Thank you for your feedback. I see your point of view and in fact my other wildlife videos didn't include music,( emus, swans ) only the sounds of nature. I opted to do this video with background music in addition to the sounds of birds. As the video was taken using a Drone no sound is recorded. Whilst I did try to find suitable sounds of the Native Black Tailed Hens in post production I couldn't and opted to use music, with some birds sounds, being the Willy Wag Tail, Black Cockatoo and New Holland Honey Eater. I believed this would be a soothing combination. It didn't cross my mind that anyone would find it unsuitable. I can understand your comment and will seriously re consider the use of music in any future wildlife videos. Please if at any point music in the video is found to be repulsive feel free to turn off the sound or if this does not work feel free not to continue watching the video. I thank you for watching my video and hope you can enjoy some of my other videos.
The older I get the more I cherish the unadulterated sounds of nature. Thank you for letting me know how the soundtrack to this video came to be. The visual is so good, so excellent, and I fear I've become a bit of a spoiled brat, wanting the audio to match the visual. In this case, I did mute the sound. I appreciate your comment and congratulate you on your work. I hope you enjoy it as much as your audience does. Very well done.
We who value nature and its untouched landscapes and wild inhabitants are glad to see these birds, Black-tailed native hens. As I savoured their beauty and, for me, the newness of these beings, I was repulsed by the music and constantly reminded of humans who think nature is not complete without their addition. Music! It was hideous. I could barely hold on to sights and sounds of the birds I was so anxious to escape the sound of humans. For what is music but the sound of humans? I much prefer the sound of wind or the trickle of flowing water or the sounds of living animals in the scene. I am truly sick from that music. Lest you consider it your obligation to stand up for the use of human music when showing nature or lest you want to support the musicians who made those sounds so irrelevant and disrespectful of nature, listen to me in my last words to you, I am a musician. There is a place for music: it is not in nature. Record the sounds of the scene you are showing us, and nothing more or less. Beautiful birds, disgraceful music within nature.
Hello. I am interested in purchasing this footage for a Production Company to use in an upcoming film. Do you have anyway I can message you privately? Thank you.
Hey Chris, hope this helps. GPS location is in Degrees & Minutes S32 25 30.8140, E124 12 9.3154 - About 120kms West of Caiguna travelling East turn Left off Eyre Highway. S32 53 2.0219 , E124 31 8.7459 - Turn Right S32 55 42.0408, E124 26 47.9124 - Turn Left down to Bilbunya Dunes.
@@christophermiller353 About 80kms to the Dunes. Track for me was easy, but I have plenty of 4WD experience. If wet/raining these tracks can become treacherous and I would avoid them especially if heading to Cape Arid as the tracks cross salt lakes which can be impossible to drive.
