I am in Scotland to photograph deer and stags and to meet Landscape Photographer Adam Karnacz from First Man Photography.
My good friend Joanna and I have rented a camper van and we are in the Glen Etive area - rarely have I seen something that beautiful. This landscape is absolutely awesome.
I am here to do wildlife photography but since I am meeting up with Adam, I am definitely also going to challenge myself with some landscape photography as well. This is the fist behind the scenes video from the trip - looking forward to sharing the next one with you.

Nothing special - just some text without illustrations but I hope you can use at least one of the tips. Please subscribe to my newsletter to download. And you can always unsubscribe after downloading - no hard feelings 😀👍 And thank you so much everyone for all these wonderful comments 🦌🦌 Download: eepurl.com/dHTwbD

Great video, Morten. I hope your success in Scotland continues!

@MortenHilmer 6 лет назад

Thanks a lot Thomas. Yeah me too. I hope you had an awesome workshop in the Alps but to judge from the photos it was amazing 😀👍

@Firstmanphotography 6 лет назад

That was a brilliant video Morten. I am very disappointed I didn't arrive a little earlier though, your experience with that stag was beautiful and the pictures you made of him were excellent. Appreciate the introduction and I'm looking forward to reliving more of the time in your next video.

@MortenHilmer 6 лет назад

Thank you so much Adam. Yeah that was such a great time we had up there in the Highlands. Looking forward to seeing your video in a few minutes😀😀

I’ve wanted to become a vet for my entire life, but after recently developing severe allergies to any animal with fur, I’ve been at a loss for what to do with my life. I’ve considered marine biology and herpetology and multitude of other things, but nothing has really spoken to me. I’m a senior in high school, and have to make my decision soon. I have, however, always had a great interest in photography. I’ll often go outside no matter the weather to capture either pictures of wildlife or of landscapes, just because I love how close to nature it makes me feel. And I’ve realized that this is what I want to do. I want to travel and capture the beauty of nature and raise awareness through the pictures I take. I don’t know how I’m going to do it, I don’t know what education is required for it, but I have to try. Thank you for illustrating my passion, sir ❤️ You’ve earned a subscriber.

@markharris5771 6 лет назад

Wow! Morten, you excitement is so infectious and I just love watching you work. Your fieldcraft is exemplary as is your respect the animals and environment. When you start a video like that don’t apologise for a bit of steam. Like yourself Adam is a very special man, I think he is easily the best channel for those looking to take their photography into landscapes. He communicates learning skills better than many bigger channels, though his isn’t small by any means. His own CV is getting pretty phenomenal with some of his images and his recent news. He also cares about people too and everyone who has met him say how nice and very sincere. I was having a pretty bad day until you posted this video, and watching you whilst nebulising myself has made me feel a lot better. Thank you.

@CNylundPhotography 6 лет назад

Morten you are a thru ambassador not only for every naturephotograper but to everybody how likes to enjoy nature up close. I myself take every chance i get to try to educate people in how to and how not to get close to wildlife. In general people tend to forget the importance of the retreat, but in fact it is just as, or maybe even more important part of showing the wildlife the respect it deserves.

@Yeshay94 6 лет назад

Why am I choosing wildlife photography over other? The answer is simple it’s not staged photography.. everything you take, you have to sacrifice a lot of time and need to be a patience which makes it difficult for most of the people. Unlike other photography where you direct them to be there or here, sit, stand and many more but wildlife you can’t do that since it flows with time. You take what’s ahead of you making difficult but gives you Immense happiness when you are done with work and go through your photos. I have been saying it before and I want to say it today that wildlife photography is what I want to shoot and you are one of the inspiration for me to take a step ahead.. thank you Mr.morten.

To have both of you in both videos is fantastic..... does it get any better! :D The passion, enthusiasm and pure joy you both bring to the rest of us is fantastic, awesome! Thanks to both of you for bringing the rest of us along on trip, we love it. Couldn't decide who's video to comment on, so I've posted the same comment on both videos. Oh, and you should both definitely team up again!

@matteorocca7078 6 лет назад

I was in Glen Etive just five months ago - what an astounding place, the red deers and the light were incredible; I also went to Skye which, together with the Glencoe area, was one of the best trips of my life. Thank you for sharing all your passion Morten, this time for me it's a double pleasure: to see you in action, and in a place where I also left a piece of heart. And in a few days I'll get my copy of "Silence of the North" :-) see you out there!

@MortenHilmer 6 лет назад

I couldn't agree more Matteo - this place is wonderful and it is hard not to leave a bit of the heart there. I am so glad you like the videos, and I am definitely looking forward to sharing much more adventures with you. I am also looking forward to hearing how you like my book. See you out there;)

@matteorocca7078 6 лет назад

Morten, the book just arrived today - it's more than beautiful, and touching, both the pictures and the text. It's a true demonstration of love for Nature and the feelings she gives. Some pictures gave me shivers. Thank you, once more, and please go on with all you're in love with ;-)
