    Morten, no words... Honestly. You are the only RUclipsr that I can watch a full 50 minute video of without skipping a minut. Honestly amazing. Keep doing what you're doing already, you're a big inspiration for me

    If there's something you can always count on, it's nature. Whenever I feel down or life is especially turbulent, I take some time to get outside and remind myself what's really important. As an artist and creator, I like to take my sketchbook, my journal, and my camera and go for long walks, taking in the magical beauty that is everywhere. Notice the often overlooked things, watch the beautiful creatures living their own lives completely separate from your own, open your ears to the sounds, feel the ground on your feet, and smell the fresh air (hopefully it's a pleasant smell). At the end of the day, nature is the most powerful thing in existence and we must remember that. ❤🌿

    Morten in the relatively short period of time we have spent exploring and photographing together, I have learnt so much from your style, approach and genuine attention to detail.
    I’m proud to know you and even call you a great friend.

    I can’t begin to explain how incredibly inspirational your videos are. Absolutely incredible, Morten, thank you so much. How incredible? Well my wife just gave me permission to buy a +$20,000 600mm TC for my Z8 and for me photography is a hobby, so she can see how inspiring your videos are. Please keep up the phenomenal work, the world would be darker without your sensitive and caring presentation style. Just brilliant.

  • @JeffandLeslie
    @JeffandLeslie Год назад +13

    Morten, I can relate to what you were saying. Before I retired, I had a very stressful job and getting out in the woods with my camera was one of the few things that kept me sane and centered. Now that I'm retired, being out in the woods with my camera is just for the joy of being out in the woods. Very little life stress now but I still cherish every moment on the trail with camera in hand. Thank you for sharing this video with us. PS: you have a heater in your hide. That's just not fair. (just joking, wish I had a heater a couple weeks ago when it wan -20F).

    Thank you, Morten, for this inspiring and beautifully made video. It's quite spectacular. I was initially attracted by the title, since I'm going through a stressful time right now myself and have begun to lean more on my photography (and music) to help keep me grounded and calm as I recover. You have reminded me that being outdoors with my camera is just as much about my connection with nature, something that calms my mind and feeds my soul, as it is about getting the shot. Thank you once again for making and sharing this video, and for the considerable time, effort and expense it would have required.

    I so enjoyed watching it. Nature is always an inspiration. A little snow this morning, sun afterwards and colours of lichens were exploding. Small things, but how beautiful. First hazel blossoms stretching, already tiny green leaves on an elder bush. Frosty now, we'll see what wonders the morning light might bring.

I just bought the camo open weave cloth and buying one of those hunting hideouts tomorrow. I will set it out back facing the water where all the birds keep flying by and land on my fence as well. I will get more bird seed etc.....until I can get my upgraded lens in a few weeks...still have to use the 70mm to 300mm Nikkor lens which has done some very clear pics lately. I really enjoy all the suggestions and ideas you provide in such an enjoyable format!

    Morten, my husband and I just discovered your channel and have been enjoying it immensely! Your photographs are breathtaking and the commentary is priceless. As you might say, "Awesome." We watched a video from a while back and I wanted to give you a guardian tip about the slugs. You might already have discovered this but if you save your eggshells and dry them out, you can crush them up and spread them on the soil around your plants. The slugs don't like crawling across anything that is rough and the eggshells feed the plants. All natural and it really keeps the slug population down.
