BIRD PHOTOGRAPHY in the forest | Wildlife photography behind the scenes - Nikon Z7, FTZ, camouflage
••• Watch the behind the camera version of this video: • BIRD PHOTOGRAPHY in th... •••
Today I am in the forest for the first time after my return from my photography expedition to the Ellesmere Island. I have missed it so much and I decided that before editing all the footage from that trip, I needed to get out in nature with my camera.
Today I am in the forest less than a kilometer from where I live and I am surprised by a beautiful little woodpecker feeding its young.
What started as a trip without a specific purpose ended up with some really exciting bird photography.

Nice one !
😆😆😆
I've been watching your videos for a while this day, I'm so damn inspired!!! I lost my son 6 years ago, was a newborn, and it's so damn hard to find something worth to fight for, but one day I found peace in my first camera, such a great peace searching for birds, animals and everything with a beat. I found a life behind the camera, and I found such a big emotion in your videos, the way You talk and express about wildlife it's truly a big joy to hear and watch! Thank You so much! You inspired me so much this day, and that's a win for me!
Keep going sir.

How can 77 people dislike this piece of art? Morten is such a humble and thankful person. He is talented, patient, righteous, conscious, optimistic, thoughtful, creative and much more. I just don’t understand how anyone could dislike Morten as a person or his videos and passions. Sure, one might not enjoy watching the videos or following these passions, as we all have different interests and passions. But why would you click on a video just to dislike it, when there is no form of harm, hate, superiority or greed towards anyone? It’s only about enjoying passions in moments and share them with others.
The fact you have so much respect for wildlife and nature says a great deal about you as a photographer, but more importantly, as a person. Thank you for your hard work.
I don't usally have the photography enthusiasm but due to maturity I get to know myself that wildlife photographer are the true hero
Never in my life , click like button so fast and subscribe on the first time... great work brother..so satisfying to watch you !!
Probably a TUTORIAL on how to do wildlife photography! The best consciously done birding video i have seen. thank you Morten! You make the world just a bit better!
Can't believe it - I'm rewatching all Morten's videos shot on and around his farm! It's so therapeutic, his passon for nature and photography is so catching, and he shares with such generosity of heart! I wish he did new videos from his farm.
You living peaceful life and nature loves you instead you melting with nature this is real life what I want after see this video tears in my eye when I stress and sad I just start spend time with nature and some photographys and I got peace and kindness in myself photography is one kind of medicine❤️🍃🍃🍂
Passion, concern, soulful, passion, simple and peaceful. Thanks Morten , you are a good man !
hey Morten. My name is Adrian, i'm from Romania and i share the same deep passion as you do, the nature and wildlife photography but unfortunately, for now, i live in a place far away from nature, surrounded by people that doesn't understand this type of living that you share in your videos, the type of living that i have during weekends. After the 5 days of work in the city, i lose myself into the forests and lakes, connecting myself with the nature, connecting myself with...myself. It's a pretty hard feeling to describe in words, but looking at your videos, especially those ones like this one at which i'm commenting now, makes my heart fly away..You describe this feeling in such a perfect way through your images, through your style that it literally mirrors my style, and the way i see the world, the nature itself. Because of you, and because of your work, because of your images, i dont feel alone, like i'm the only one doing this type of activity. So thanks a lot for your effort into building these videos man. You really are passionated deep in your heart about nature, and i resonate with you. Hopefully one day, i'll get to shoot with you in a forest, somewhere in the wilderness. Best regards and good luck with this work, Morten! Adrian
Dedu Adrian This comment makes my heart fly! 💞
same here in Brazil!
I totally appreciate your work man.👏🏻 Because of guys like you we were able to watch fascinating footages on Discovery, Nat Geo, Animal Planet etc., at homes sitting with leg on leg. Great work.👍🏻
@Bahu bali Then try to sit so😅

I've been photographing wildlife for many years. Morton, you are true inspiration! Your wildlife ethics are beyond reproach! CHEERS!
The more simply way to say "I love nature".... ...see you out there.... Magnificent human being

The Most eco friendly Sniper, we need but don't deserve.
My son and I loved watching your video! It is obvious that you put a lot of time into capturing the animals and yourself and we truly appreciate it!
Perfect timing with a cup of coffee! Awesome video, Morten 😀
Models need make up for photoshoot Nature doesn't! Awesome photography 👍

Woodpecker~ so cute😘

I'm envious of you man, It's great to see people like you appreciating and enjoying the natural scenery.. Keep going

Finally I found one Tamil😍comment
Me also
Me too tamil
Nice to fine tamil comment
😁
You are doing very hard work by shooting yourself and without holding the camera in hand. For example keeping the camera in different positions. After shooting again change the camera location. Also nice editing. Keep it up. Love from INDIA.
Thanks so much for you awesome compliment. It is very encouraging:)
Everytime I love photography more and more. Thank you Morten. The peace and the passion you portrait are inspiring. (Chile, Atacama)
I could watch your videos for hours and hours and dont get bored. Its like an ASMR for me Always visualize them before sleep You have one new subscriptor
Thanks a lot Rafa I really appreciate your nice compliment
@@MortenHilmer thank you too
I love your photos and videos, you can see how much you love photographing animals in the forest, I follow your videos and photos on Instagram, may God continue to bless your work and you always, you are an inspiration.
Effort behind the scene was really appreciatable... hats off to u bro... waiting for more 👍👍👍
Nice to see you back Morten. We danes often see the danish nature as being a bit boring compared to what other countries can offer. But in fact, we have lovely nature. It may be different, but take a walk in the forest, for instance an early summer morning as you often do, and one will experience how fantastic it really is. Keep up the good work Morten. I believe we are quite a few who appreciates it. :-)
Thanks a lot Par. I could not agree more. I really love the nature here in Denmark. Tusind tak for din skønne kommentar - der er virkelig godt at høre.
Your passion for photography and nature is truly inspirational, thank you
Love the way how you respect privacy of fauna around your proximity....that's the prime reason I subscribe and like your videos....!!
I'm 15, and I'm very very interested in wildlife photography. I'm taking photography and wildlife class and I was hoping I could be like you
Welcome back, Morten! I've missed you and your videos! ;-)
Thank you so much Ihor
Ihor Kont not only you
I like photography, especially wildlife, because of watching Morten Hilmer's channel, thank you for the inspiration
Love this so much. Love you and amazing natural life. God bless you brother. Live long.♥️
I am speechless! Thank you for another great and inspiring nature experience Morton!
Morten Hilmer video? Yea please. Today just became a great day
Your passion for WILD is infectious. Thanks for sharing your childlike interest in wildlife and the great outdoors. Once I watched your trip to Norway to photograph Musk Ox I was hooked. I had always thought there was demand for footage that matched the pace of nature. You've proved it. I wish everyone who plans to visit a national park in the United States could watch some of your videos first. I believe this is the experience most want to have but it's buried deep in the subconscious. Learning about wildlife with deep respect and appreciation is contagious. Thanks for all your filming, narration and editing efforts!
You are my absolute favorite KZhead photography content creators!! I am so happy when I see new episodes. Your excitement and passion is contagious. Keep doing what you’re doing!!
Absolutely bloody brilliant! Sending this to all my photography friends to watch your master work both in photography and videography
Another inspiring video morten, keep up the awesome work.

Wonderful to sit and watch this video Morten. Thanks. What a great way to return from your trip and go out and see this. You appear to have got use to your new Nikon Z7 and producing some great results.
Det er bare smuk Morten !!! Tak fordi du delte din lidenskab med os, og frem for alt fortsætter ❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍
Brilliant video! This is exactly the experience I go for. The whole thing. Not much is better than being out in the field with your gear, senses and some hot coffee. (Even in the summer) 👍👍
I’ve never seen a photographer do something like this. It’s amazing😍😮
It's such a patience and hardwork requiring job!
I love your job, for me this is an example of dedication and love for the wildlife.
It's not the destinations...but the journey that counts. Looks fun while you get these awesome images also. Thanks for sharing!

Been meaning to visit Fosdalen. Perhaps in autumn when the trees change. Beautiful pictures, and great video.

Is there any white india
i do not understand those 2.2k people that unliked this video. Morten you're amazing. I've watched again most of your forest videos during this hard period and it helped me a lot to not lose the touch of nature. I can't wait to get out in one month and explore the fresh spring nature. Great job man! great job!
As always... Thanks for doing what you do, the way you do it. Beautiful.
Nice jod MR.Hilmer. I love this kind of job.😱❤️❤️❤️ Watching from philippines

Thank you for filming. You reached the boundary of creativity. Nothing behind what you did. Awesome.
Beautiful video! I just recently photographed my first pileated woodpecker with two babies (also within a kilometre away!). I got just as excited! Thanks for sharing your wonderful moment.
People who might have spotted him...are the one who claim they have seen yeti or bigfoot in forest😂😂
I missed your vids! Really great, the "sniper-outfit". Thanks for sharing this very amazing video!!!
The security of these now quite rare birds is so unsure, but safely preserved in your camera at least. Exquisite photos Morten, the rich rewards for your dedication and patience. Thank you :)
Just got into birding and hopefully other wildlife and discovered your channel, love your videos , like mini movies , anticipation, tension and great images
A dedicated photographer & awesome stills for ur efforts keep it up..!!

Hello Morten, your camo is top. So I continue to watch the video now....Very nice video! Again, I'm impressed by your camo and the way you are in the woods. 👍👍
It´s Deerhunter 3D camo, I own it myself and can highly recommend it. On the expensive side but really, really quite and really nice to have on actually :)
