I am in Scotland to do wildlife photography 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 definitely more comfortable when I am doing wildlife photography but since I am meeting up with Adam, I am definitely also going to challenge myself with some landscape photography as well.
So join us behind the scenes on some of the great experiences we had during the two days in Scotland. this video highlights the best moments😀
This is part two in my short series from Scotland and if you haven't seen the first one, here is the link: • PHOTOGRAPHING WILD STA...

I get your newsletters but they are not in English! Which is totally fine ... I just can't read them! :-) Thanks again for a lovely video. My wife is from Scotland and we are planning a photography vacation next summer. She is going to show me all the great spots. We are going to drive up through the Highlands and then ride over to Orkney and the hopefully to Shetland. I think they have puffins on Shetland. I hope to see those beautiful birds and a deer or two! Thanks again Morten for the inspiration!

@randomarts1758 4 года назад

Morten Hilmer i would never ever unsubscribe you. You are my inspiration and my motivation love you and all ways make us feel better

@Firstmanphotography 6 лет назад

That was great Morten. Lovely to re-live the moments again, it was such a good trip. Thanks so much for the kind words too, really appreciate it. Hope to see you again soon.

@MortenHilmer 6 лет назад

I'm so glad you like it. Yeah it was also nice to edit this one. Great memory reexpeeienced 👍👍 you deserve all the kind words you can get😀 see you soon.

@tortureh2371 5 лет назад

You do know ..Morten lied to🤣 you about the *coffee*

@ChrisHunt4497 6 лет назад

Fascinating video with Maid Marion naked in the waterfall and a wet camera. That little white lie about ’the coffee’ - we heard it all. Morten, you are the best story teller ever. And the shots of the deer are just beautiful. So we have Maid Marion meets Bambi. Awesome. 😄👌

@lynettestewart2758 6 лет назад

Oh boy, I have such a crush on Morten. Cant get enough of his passion and energy for what he loves to do.

@Manuelordorica880 Год назад

Hey friends, it is nice to see two of my favorite wildlife photographers toghether at work.

@Adele.N 7 месяцев назад

I’m so surprised that you are wearing a bright red jacket in this one. I really love your videos. Thank you.

@larrymohr 5 лет назад

I don't think I have ever seen anyone who was so joyous about getting soaking wet! I always want a perfectly clear shot. Seeing your photos of the dear obscured behind the grass I can see that it is the mood of the image that is important not necessarily the focus or a clear view of the subject. Thanks!

@FloAndre. 2 года назад

Hei Morten, I live in West-Norway and here is like this kind of deer is coming almost inside people's house. It is almost always back in my garden few of them 😊

@kristianprsa9221 6 лет назад

A man and his coffee. Never to be separated.

@EifelWandern 2 года назад

Hello Morten, hope you and your family have had a wonderfull Christmas eve. I got the answer of this question by an old hunter and farmer from the hills a few years ago. These deers can of course see or recognize the difference between a backpacker or a huntsman, a rifle or a walking stick, walking around or sneak and stalk. He drives in the dark with his tractor, lights on, close 20m of 10 and more deers ceeping eatin and grazing and do not escape. Stay lucky and healthy in 2022. Alex from the German Eifel

@LieslHuddleston 6 лет назад

I just love watching your videos, you remind me of myself, ha! Rain and snow are my favorite times to be out too, as you said, "Really makes me feel like I'm alive!" Agreed! Also, I enjoy your sense of humor too, "I'm not a coffee drinker but he forced me into it." Haha! What a beautiful place Scotland is, wow!

@MortenHilmer 6 лет назад

What a lovely comment Liesl. That is so nice to hear. Yeah there is something very special about being outside in the rain. The sound of the thousands water drops, the smell of wet nature and the feeling of calmness.

@fusion-music 5 лет назад

In my home, Scotland. Deer like Red jackets. You know who they think you are? Wonderful creative shots, but Tameron's definitly need jackets on in the rain.

@mausam3836 6 лет назад

I feel your video is more beautiful when you are alone. Free and wild. My thought! Indeed a great video

@MortenHilmer 6 лет назад

Thank you so much for your thoughts. I really appreciate 👍😀 you will get a lot more of my lonely videos in the future👍

@marieta.s 6 лет назад

Hi Morten, I am actually very surprised that this little tripod actually supported your camera and that lens, but you did mention that you were holding it. A fairly good option when not having a tripod is a platypod. It’s a metal base with spikes where you can attach a ball head and can support very heavy loads. It is not a tripod but if you can find a place to put it, then it can give you the stability of a tripod.

@shubhammittal1188 4 года назад

The way you say awesome is awesome

@LeoDaly1 6 лет назад

Man, sitting here eating Rum & Raisin ice cream with a big mug of coffee and Morten's video. 😀😀😀 🦌🦌🦌 Big fan of both you and Adam, so both in the same videos.... awesome!!!

@MortenHilmer 6 лет назад

Haha so awesome. I would love to sit and eat that ice cream and drink coffee with you. But then I would prefer to see one of Adams videos 👍😀

@StevenSugref 6 лет назад

Another fantastic video Morten. I live about 2 hours from that location, it's one of my favourite places to go hillwalking. The deer are so tame because tourists constantly feed them. There was a recent campaign to try and get people to stop feeding them sweets and chocolate etc. There was one particular stagg at a certain popular car park which would approach people and nudge them with his antlers for food. I think the forestry commission actually had shoot it. I know that you're in no way like that and have a huge respect for the wildlife, just explaining why they're so tame.

@MortenHilmer 6 лет назад

Hey Fergus and thank you so much. It would have been great to say hi to you up there. Hopefully I'm going again when the snow is coming. Oh that makes totally sense when people are feeding the deer. A shame though. Thanks a lot for sharing this information 👍

@adamaj74 6 лет назад

Yeah that's crazy how close you could get to the deer. Where I live, if a deer sees you, no matter how far away, if it just SEES you, it's GONE, lol. Same with most wildlife.

@md.istiaqhasan7468 4 года назад

I always love your photography..... And I enjoy it...

@evgeniatuzinska445 2 года назад

I am having a date night with wildlife photograpy on you tube and you, Morten! Such a beautiful experience you’ve lived! So glad we have many videos to enjoy, thank you so much for it!

@AlexBerger 5 лет назад

The Scottish nature was perhaps the first nature in Europe that I truly truly fell in love with. Thanks for these, loving them and yearning to get back. Strongly considering my first winter trip to Scotland as well because of your videos.

@stewartfinley 6 лет назад

Morton you look lost when trying to Photography a landscape! I think this is great it just goes to show how Specialized photography is. You can’t be a jack of all trades. Everyone has a specialism that they have worked hard on for years. We may dabble in other genres but we all have a comfort zone and you looked out of yours which was good to see

@lokki245 6 лет назад

Glen Etive has a resident herd of Red Deer. Before the refurbishment (demolition) of the old Kings House Hotel began, they would often be found right outside the hotel and sometimes ate carrots from the hands of guests. I've even seen people feeding them from their cars further down the glen. They are very used to people.

@RadioShackSeven 5 лет назад

Another great production. Next time you should visit Dumfries and Galloway in the South of Scotland which is where I live. There are some great opportunities for birds...

@noreenlucey5787 6 лет назад

You need to come to Killarney co Kerry Ireland for the big stags especially in Oct for the rut

@spencemiller5836 6 лет назад

Morton your passion for wild life and being out in nature sure is an inspiration. I thank you for bringing us all along with you on your adventures. Keep up all your great work!!!

@markharris5771 6 лет назад

The deer in Scotland are amazing, I once saw a massive herd walk right through the middle of a village totally ignorant of everything around them. I also have a shot of the famous leucitic fallow deer of Loch Lowes in a field watching me with it surround by 5 of the usual colour deers. When Adam want to learn something he comes across as a sponge who wants to soak everything in. I think he enjoys shooting some wildlife as he has done videos of puffins and short birds in the Scottish Islands. I doubt it will ever replace his landscapes though, personally I get equally pleasure from both. Funniest thing Ive heard in any video but be Morten saying "I’m not a coffee lover…" I think you got some great landscape shots, especially all things consider such as the wrong kit. A non waterproof lens is no good for any outdoor photography, one thing I like about my Sigma is its build quality. I great video as always Morten, very well done indeed.

@davemckissick5010 6 лет назад

Morten, you and Adam are my favorite nature photographers. I like the way you are learning from each other....

@michaelrobbins1632 6 лет назад

Brilliant Morten not much more to say to this one, moving , funny and fantastic photos I absolutely love your style you really do show the feeling of the moment.

@v.richard9993 6 лет назад

Morten you should make a video of how do you prepare your coffee, i always end up having one myself watching your videos but i would like to know how do you like your coffee

@nickvanbeusekom6685 6 лет назад

I really love your videos and you are living the life I am dreaming of. I really 👏 you and I hope that someday I can reach your level

@JeffCreates 5 лет назад

This should be used as a definition of "why weather sealing matters".

@PerThyssen 6 лет назад

Thank you Morten for another inspiring video. Please give us an update on what you will do with your Tamron 150-600 lens after the rain ruined it. Will you replace it with another model, or send it to Tamron to get it fixed? And don't you consider to use a rain cover for your gear, when taking pictures on rainy days?

@Leaa4514 6 лет назад

You are amazing Morten, just amazing human being. Keep killin it dude. All the best, from the south.

@jowallace-blaker8202 6 лет назад

Hi Morten my wife and I absolutely love your channel and share your passion about wildlife. We have recently just returned from a safari in the Serengeti and have some amazing photos of the leopard that I would love to share with you. If you would like to see them please let me know. Looking forward to your next blog

@philwheelhouse3405 6 лет назад

Really enjoyed Morten thank you. October is the time for the Rut here In Scotland most visitors have left and the glens become quiet again apart from the Stags bellowing across the glens but thats the norm and one could never get annoyed or tired of it, thats nature.

@MortenHilmer 6 лет назад

Thanks Phil. So is the rut started yet? It sounds so great as you describe it. Totally silent with only the sound of the stags bellowing 👍👍👍

@philwheelhouse3405 6 лет назад

Morten Hilmer Hi Morten around mid October the Stags start to descend from the tops as the weather gets colder. One of my favourite places is a Glen known as ‘Kinloch Hourn’ the Glen is a no thorough road and not for people who like to rely on help if getting into difficulties. There are warning signs at the start telling people to be careful. This tends to put most tourists off which leaves the Glen in a nice natural environment. It’s a 22 mile drive to the sea loch at the end all single track, surround by mountains on each side. Wildlife, Stags, wild goats, eagles, buzzards and with the occasional seals/ dolphins at the end if lucky. It’s a very wild place and winter is the best time of year. I would recommend putting it on your todo list it is superb if you like wild places as I know you do. Iam fortunate to live only 10 minuets drive from the start of the Glen, and never tire of venturing down.

@234cheech 4 года назад

thanks for coming tos scotland to photograph morten.

@AJ93252 6 лет назад

hey Morten! another great video. very inspiring and motivating. I don't know about anyone else but i would love to see some bush craft and wild camping mixed in with some wildlife photography. No one i know on RU-vid does anything like that and i think it would be really great!

@ShaneBaker 6 лет назад

Nice video. I assumed the D5 could take all that rain, but not the lens. Time for a field report on raincoats for camera gear, perhaps? 😄

@dirkmaxschwaertzel6938 6 лет назад

Hi Morten, you are such a funny guy. Allways a pleasure to see you shooting. No RU-vid videos has more "uuhss" and "aahs" of sheer pleasure like yours :-). Keep doing it and show your true passion for nature and photography. Great man. Love it

@admirdeliccom 3 года назад

Morten you're a genius.

@genekied 6 лет назад

Damn Morten, you make me want to drop everything and rush back out to the mountains tomorrow. Unfortunately I have to work a couple of more days before hitting the Tetons for the weekend. Love your enthusiasm, never let it go.

@GRAYnomad 4 года назад

Very interesting to watch yours and Adam's blogs of the same "subject". And I agree, one of the most special things you can experience is to be accepted by wildlife, when they know that you are there but don't consider you to be a threat is the best feeling ever IMO.

@GRAYnomad 4 года назад

Thanks for the like. I've been binge watching you videos since I found them a few days ago. Great stuff, although I don't know how you handle the cold, I photograph in Australia and hardly even see a frost :) PS. Sorry if you got notified several times, I've had all sorts of trouble getting YT to log me in with the correct account.

@MortenHilmer 6 лет назад

That is going to be such a great trip. I hope you will get some awesome experiences and some nice photos 👍 yeah that would be awesome but we will probably meet one day

@iBengalkatze 4 года назад

Amazing thank you for sharing!

@OhSoCheesy 6 лет назад

The best tripod is always the one you have with you. I've used a rock and a log because I couldn't be bothered to carry a tripod. While it worked ok, I would have given anything to have what you had. And given the beautiful images you made, I would say it wasn't too small after all.

@arunasstaponas5704 6 лет назад

Hi Morten. Great footage and nice little adventure. I don't know, maybe it's just me, but this land is offering an amazing and picturesque landscapes which you can just dream about. Even in some rainy conditions. I noticed that all those portraits of deer you photographed are so close, that it even doesn't matter you would took it in Scotland or France. I mean they are great, but i think it's much appreciated also the background, the true environment the animals are living thriving. Seems like it's important only the animal. Yes the closeups are crucial, but today 99 % of wild life photographers are focused just on them. Even the lens you are using is more then perfect. And it's more then perfect for landscapes too. I wish you all the best Morten, you are an amazing and inspiring person. Best regards ;)
