Im back in the mountains of Cairngorms National Park in the Highlands of Scotland to do wildlife photography and to enjoy nature. This is my second day and the weather has changed dramatically from the day before. The high winds with snow on the top of the mountain makes wildlife photography challenging.
Watch Wildlife photography in Scotland - behind the scenes part 1:
• PHOTOGRAPHING MOUNTAIN...
It is very windy so I had a lot of challenges with the sound but I decided to make this short behind the scenes VLOG to share this great experience with you. So please forgive me for the poor sound - I hope you will bear with me.
In this short behind the scenes documentary I am trying to share my fascination of the animal kingdom and to show how to photograph wildlife using the foreground as a blurry element to close the bottom of the photo.
* ABOUT THIS EPISODE
I spent some days doing wildlife photography in these mountains and this is part 2 from my trip - I am currently working on a video about the equipment I brought on this photo trip.
I think the biggest challenge was the temperatures that were around 0 degrees Celsius all the time. That in combination with the sleet made it almost impossible to keep the front element of the lens free from water and snow.
Another challenge was to actually find the hares. Some of them were very shy but I was lucky to find a few that would let me get quite close.
The Scottish mountain hare is indigenous to Scotland and even though it looks quite similar to the Arctic hare, it is quite different.
