Nicely done Richard I can relate to all of what you've mentioned in that video but all the bad aching backs,necks and wet muddy clothing etc is well worth all the effort. As you said,it all comes good eventually, sometimes very easily and the moments spent with these animals are just magical even if you don't get any images. Keep up the good work mate 👍 👏
Hooray! Someone who got everything right in a wildlife video…no technical waffle, no blowing your own trumpet, no blathering on and on without getting to the point. Everything covered just enough to be instructional and enjoyable…I am surrounded by fields with hares in, but I’ve put off trying to capture images because most I see from the country lanes and just will not wander onto farmland to get closer. Armed with this information I now feel more confident to approach some local farmers. Thank you!…..oh and one of my favourite but most elusive subjects are Wrens. I hear them (you can’t miss them singing that’s for certain…), but actually seeing one, never mind shooting one has so far eluded me. So would really appreciate any advice you have, along the lines of the video here…….
Great video and subscribed after viewing! I regularly see hares in the fields just down the road from me, so I will be attempting to put these tips to use! Personally, I just enjoy 'in the field' type vlogs. Seeing someone's process photographing whatever they enjoy because I think if it's a subject you enjoy, then it comes across more, and that enthusiasm can be contagious. Keep up the good work!👏
Great video as always Rich. Really enjoyed this format. In terms of what next, how about finding and photographing river otters? Do you think they would be any easier or more difficult than photographing them in places like Mull? In the meantime, for other viewers and subscribers, book a workshop with Rich. He’s so knowledgeable, affable and genuine and I always thoroughly enjoy being out looking for wildlife with Rich, even if I’ve turned into a jinx! 😂
Such a great informative video with alot of useful tips, I'm now ready to take a my first Brown Hare photo thanks to you Richard 😊. How about a video on taking photos of dragonflies!
Really lovely video, thank you. How refreshing to see a video that’s not caught up in technical detail but concentrating more on nature and enjoying the moment! Sometimes the best photos we took were the ones from our childhood that are technically not good. I think that’s because they evoke memories of the sheer thrill we got from them, knowing we’d been clever enough to capture a totally natural moment that was a heart warming image and something we achieved nonetheless with skill. My first one was an image taken with a basic tele-ektra camera of a tiger laid down behind glass at London Zoo. I put the camera tight to the glass to avoid flare. The thrill I got when it was processed and I collected it from the camera shop was awesome!
Great video and I 100% agree, the feeling of just be outthere in nature is amazing and even if you don't get the results you wanted its great just being out!
Great video ! Not really photographed hares but would like to! I’d probably say a pair of gloves added to it as we know hands and big reflective signs! Probably wouldn’t bother with a camo head net though or screens can be good too 👍
Great video and sound advice. I really like your concentration on the actual subject at hand IE photographing wildlife and not going on about gear. I doubt if there is any camera lens combo that cannot be used to successfully capture good wildlife images. There are far too many gear nerds on RUclips and your approach is quite refreshing.
Yet again, another great video Richard. A subject which is also my favourite to photograph and even just observe. I’m currently working on a Dipper video and I’d love to see you produce another one of your amazing Dipper videos. Keep up the great work and look forward to watching your next instalment. All the best, Tom 👍
Please would you consider making a video on summer wildlife subjects? Maybe Red Grouse in the blooming heather moorlands? In the UK it feels like a harder time of year to find good subjects but perhaps I'm just not sure what to be looking for!
This video is just what i needed as been really wanting to photograph some hares but never really known where to start. Thank you so much! If you have any tips on photohgraphing badgers or foxes id love to see a video but all your videos are amazing as always!

They are on my bucket list of wildlife to capture
Brilliant video mate, and fantastic advice that can be used with many other species too 👌🏻

Great video more field craft tips for birds of prey and otters etc
Great video Richard and for me great timing as just moved up to Northumberland where there are high numbers and defo on my bucket list. 👍

Nice video! I'd love to see some more videos from the cairngorms next time you're up there, or from mull.

Great video.. I would like to see a video on photographing Red Foxes, in daylight
Excellent video! There’s so much that can be applied to any type of wildlife photography. Thank you!!

Thanks Tom. Is your dipper video finished? I’ll check it out 👍

Exceptional content...Congrats!!!
Thank you so much 😀
For me you did everything right. The video is the right length, entertaining and you know what you`re talking about.
Thank you very much
I still have my v
Canon 5d Mark IV and not ready too change! Even bought a back up! If it works well, why change! Cheers
Lovely!
