PHOTOGRAPHING BROWN HARES / STALKING TECHNIQUES / WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY

Theres no denying it, photographing any wild mammal can be a challenge. Brown Hares can provide a particular set of challenges. Depending on the environment you're photographing them in, you can find them in huge fields and the only way to get your desired shot is to stalk them. You know what this involves, good camo and even better stalking techniques.
I take a visit to a local permission where theres a good head of these amazing creatures. In this film I demonstrate the concealment that I adopt and a couple of techniques of moving over the ground in an efficient way to enable you to get close for those intimate shots. I decided to use the 500mm f4 and combined with the 1.4 x teleconverter to give me a little extra reach. So grab a brew, put your feet up and check out the results.

hi Simon, I’ve spent the last week going through almost all of your vlogs and have to say you should have a lot more subscribers, your man hours alone put into these in depth videos is amazing, a man of my own heart where nothings left to chance, there are too many wildlife photographers out there that don’t put anything like your effort and time into their vlogs, a ten minute post every now and then just doesn’t cut the mustard for me, well done mate, I’ll spread the word when I can 👍📷🦅🐦

Hi Simon. Just been going some of the mountain of old photos from my time in the Royal Marines and found some of Cam and concealment training we used to take photos in mono to highlife problems with the recruits efforts. As most beasts of the field only see in mono it’s quite interesting to look at what we use for photography. You may be surprised

Nice shots of the hare. I can’t help but wonder how many other eyes are on that hare when it’s just chilling in that open field?! I guess that’s nature though. Take care.

Well done Simon iv'e watched everyone so far and look forward to plenty more : The way you were stalking across that field was good to see after your tumble : Quick question Simon is what do you fill your bean bag with for weight when edging your way across the fields : I have two purchased from you, one filled with seed (perfect but very heavy) the other filled with poly peanuts very light and comfortable but not as supportive .
