Really like the fact Dan that you don’t shun the more common species, a good photographer enjoys the opportunity to create amazing photos regardless of species! Very glad to have found your channel Dan! 👏😀👍
Thanks very much for that, I just love ALL wildlife regardless of rarity. Sounds like you have a very similar outlook to Pops and myself, glad you are enjoying the channel and I appreciate your support and feedback 👍🏻
Yeah Dan I must agree with your comments, I go to Martin Mere regularly also with my wife.I also have the Z9, enjoyed your video and watch all of them good stuff keep them coming. Ron Barker hide is a good place to spend a few hours, there's some fantastic wildlife.
Thanks Dan for saying my name that afternoon at martin mere with your wife stood near the sign enjoyed meeting you both ps.loved the videos and photos best wishes den
Another cracking video Dan, you never fail to impress me with your videos and commentary, I get excited when I see a notification from your channel, Thank you for sharing again
Agree with the zoo comment. I went last summer when it started to get really warm so it was quiet species wise away from the kept species. Worth a visit though.
Well worth the wait, Dan. A very enjoyable video. I joined the WWT early last year and am a fairly frequent visitor to the Arundel Wetland in West Sussex in fact I made a video of a "frozen" visit to that site just two weeks ago. So far Arundel is the only WWT reserve I have visited and, from your comments, I think the Martin Mere Reserve and Arundel are set up to a similar model. At Arundel there are enclosures for predominantly non-indigenous species which, as you mention, feel a bit zoo-like but do offer loads of fairly easy photo opportunities, then there are the open wetlands which, in Arundel's case, make use of the natural wet area alongside the River Arun and there I have taken loads of birds in flight photos of geese, gulls, duck, egret, heron, kestrel and red kite. Personally, I far prefer these open areas and the hides overlooking them to the zoo area but, the latter is great for the kids and introduces them to a wide range of colourful and active species. If you haven't already seen it, my Arundel WWT video(s) can be seen at ruclips.net/video/jRyzlfVlo-w/видео.html and. ruclips.net/video/RVSzM_5DOfM/видео.html
Thanks for your comment Brian it is much appreciated as always. I will definitely take a look at your video as I’m always on the lookout for venues to take a trip to and Arundel sounds very interesting. I agree with you that the enclosures are a fantastic way to introduce people especially children to the wonders of wildlife and just like you prefer the wilder aspects of the reserve. Thanks again 👍🏻
@@danwillis_photography Dan, If you do plan a trip to Arundel keep in mind that there are also three RSPB sites within 10 - 15 miles - Pulborough Brooks to the north, Pagham Harbour & Medmerry are side by side, to the west, just south of Chichester. I have made videos of each of these locations during the past year and are each very different.
Yes I use manual with auto ISO as the bird will move through different lighting conditions so this compensates for that. You need to use exposure compensation though especially when shooting light coloured subjects 👍🏻

😄😄😄A beautiful wetland !!! Thank you for your sharing.
My pleasure, glad you enjoyed it 👍🏻
Wow! You certainly do get around. Another great spot to photograph birds that would normally be difficult to get close up to. 👍
Martin Mere is a fabulous reserve, I will be returning there soon as they have regular sightings of Kingfisher and Barn Owl from the hides 👍🏻

Well presented Dan, a good variety of subjects to practice on,
Thank you for your comment and continued support 👍🏻
Looking forward to this. I will possibly be visiting this location in about five weeks' time.
It’s a cracking reserve and definitely worth the visit 👍🏻

Cheers for watching Dave, yeah it’s definitely worth visiting and the winter migrants make it somewhere I will go back to in the winter 👍🏻

Do you used Auto ISO with birds in flight looks a great place
