Hi Morten, I’d just like to say thank you, because without you, I wouldn’t have found my love for wildlife photography. I first saw one of your videos about 8 months ago and it was absolutely breathtaking. You are a true inspiration and role model. Thank you once again.
Perfect timing! I’m just making dinner and will watch this while eating. Mortens videos are on par with the planet Earth documentaries to me. I tell anyone that will listen about these fantastic videos :). Take care and much love Morten!
@@WaechterDerNacht that would be absolutely legendary! My favourite narrator, and my favourite photographer of all time. Mortens narrating skills are just as great, but I grew up hearing David Attenborough’s amazingly relaxing voice. I’d sleep like a baby after watching the two collaborate 😂👍🏻
@@Jules317 Yes, his narrating skills are also great and really sets the mood for those videos great. Still David Attenborough is a legend when it comes to narrating for those BBC documentaries etc..
The appeal of Morten's videos is his simple presentation and the humbleness in which he goes about explaining what he does - whether in the field or at home. Always a joy to watch his videos.
I appreciate all your hard work to put these videos together. I am thankful you are a true professional. You refrain from swearing and offer clear-cut information and tips to us, the viewers. I have just seen 2 of your videos this evening and I am hooked. I am in Roseville, Minnesota and am fortunate enough to live within the best park system in the world. I have been photographing nature and wildlife here for 50 years. It never gets old and is very soothing and calming to be out in God's wonderful creation. Keep up the excellent work Morten, and thank you for sharing with the world.
Literally just rewatched your old fox video from a few years back yesterday, can’t wait to see this one ! I’m doing a local fox project so I hope I’ll be able to see and photograph some too 👍🏼👍🏼
That fox was beautiful. And all swans and ducks. I can't wait spring to come with all birds again. I had maybe best time of My life last autumn when just watching, following and filming swan family.

Denmark surely got a very nice cold spell it seems 😀 Loved how the fox casually walked between the ducks and they didn't fly off. I'm secretly hoping one of these photos will make it in next year's calendar 👍
Great video! Got a Snowy Owl today and 4 types of ducks that I've never heard of before. I'm in Canada so it was cold and I was out for hours. Luckily I already know and followed Morten's tips for staying warm. So many people came, complained about the cold, and left empty handed. These tips are true and work!
I appreciate your advice on what to bring and the importance of your comfort. Hydration, food and clothing are certainly important regardless of the duration of your outing. I currently either wear Sorel boots or Muck stable boots, both of which allow me to wear multiple or thick socks and keep me dry and cozy. Layering is so important, I agree. Well done with showing us the “hows” of staying outside longer.
Hey Morten, ur my big hero. Watching ur vids makes me so motivated to go out and try to get some wildlife photos myself. Also ur videos are so calming.Thanks!
Great tips to stay warm out there! I often sit in one spot watching for wildlife, for many hours, and I like the idea of an herbal tea to keep hydrated as well as water.
Hi Morten. Could you make a video with the accessories you have for recording content? those accessories that facilitate field work, supports, magic arms, cold shoe ... Thanks.
Here in Montana, USA, it's fox mating season and we had a couple out last night on our ranch right by the house making the loudest racket you can imagine. Foxes are normally seen and not heard but they had vocalize loudly at times.
Not everyone lives in such a wild and beautiful country or area. It inspires me to go out into my local park or just my backyard to see what I can find ! Thanks MH !
Someday I would love to be like you, working in nature capturing beautiful moments, it's all I want in a future successful job, or at least have the resources to do it as a hobby. I appreciate that you make these videos showing us your work, how difficult it can be, but how beautiful it is, very good final work by the way.
Do you know when somebody tells you "I feel like somebody is embracing my soul, that warm"... from the moment your timeline appears in my RUclips that´s EXACTLY what I feel. You´re not a youtuber, you have a gift that can surpass screens, kilometres and spaces... eveyone of your videos is even more and more full of magic... the perfect island to recover a little peace in the soul. Thanks for being so kind with the nature, see you "out there"...
Hello Morten, Just to let you know that I have been following you from day 1 I have discovered wildlife photography and you always been my N1 inspiration. THANKS A LOT!!
I have been enjoying your videos for a few months now and I have to say that your content is awesome. Thank you for all your work and effort put on making these documentaries, they are just amazig.
These videos are so inspiring. I live in a very rural place and have about 80 acres of land my family owns to crawl all over and I entirely underutilize all of it. I love wildlife photography (it's what got me into photography in the first place more than a decade ago when I was in middle school) but I've slowly drifted away from it and I'm beginning to realize my dissatisfaction with my photos lately is because I'm not focusing on photographing what I actually love to photograph.
Loved the footage of the fox, such a beautiful animal. Reminded me of the footage I captured back in 2019. Thank you for sharing! Simon needs to create his own RUclips channel!!
Great tips Morten, and beautiful Photos. I had a couple of great encounters with some foxes myself just a few days ago, meetings I won't forget for a long time. 👍🏻
I always feel inspired to go hiking with my camera whenever I see one of your videos. They remind me of the importance of stepping away from the busy everyday life once in a while to enjoy the beauty of the nature and the calm that comes with being in it. Thank you for that! Also, that last section with the tips is fabulous!
Your work inspires me. Nature Calls Knowing it is just a patience game We sit, we play the game, we wait; The honking geese a gaggle Beneath crest of the moon. Frost and snow and the geese, A distant fox is patient, too.
This is absolutely amazing! Thank you so much Morten for sharing your images and videos with us! As someone who is very new to photography and still learning a appreciate this so much.
Mr. Hilmer....you are amazing. You are my role model and i havent missed any one video of yours. They are so informative, and the way you present to your viewers, is just wow. May be if i am lucky, I would have the honour of meeting you in person. And one more thing, Denmark is such a beautiful country. Namaskar from India!!!
Ok, had to pause vlog and comment. I've have watched the "arm flap" a few times! Too funny. Your reaction time is swift! Ice cracks and arm raise quickly! LOL
I really enjoyed this video Morten... This is one of my favorite habitats... Cold and frozen wetland in the dead of winter; you never know what you're going to find. BTW, I see that you're now sporting an F-Stop backpack. I've been using a Tilopa and Sukha for years and love, love, these bags.
Hi Morten. Thank you for a lovely start to my day with this amazing and incredible video. You really know how to put emotion and excitement into your videos. The new format you have been using really works well and I love it. We are in yet another lock down in the UK until at least March, so unable to go to the places I usually go to for photography. This video was a real pick me up, and has really filled me with excitement to get back out there and photograph as soon as possible. All the very best!!
I really appreciate the passion that goes into these productions but what I appreciate the most is that the content is not dumbed down by some poor narrative attempt at personification. You can tell that Morten knows the animals behavior and has researched and embraced the science that is a huge part of wildlife photography.
That was pure Joy right there! What a great watch this is on a Sunday afternoon with a glass of Vino, really loved it from start to finish Morten. As always a pleasure to be a Subscriber... Keep the good videos coming my friend. Regards Richard 👍
Hola Morten, desde Costa Rica le quiero decir que me encantan sus videos ! Transmiten una energía increíble y desde que me hablaron de su canal hace como 3 semanas, creo que ya estoy al día con todos sus videos😍 Y espero muchos más .
Thank you Morten for another fantastic video. I have been truly inspired watching you and your respect for wildlife and nature. I can’t wait to “get out there” as soon as I can. Best wishes from Lancashire in the UK. 👍🏻
Hey Morten! I absolutely love your content! It's incredibly beautiful and calming. Words can't describe how much I enjoy watching your videos. Keep up your amazing work!
I’ve just finish my second cup of coffee watching you ! You're a huge temptation to sip a good cup of coffee, you could work together with George Clooney!😉
De niño yo quería ser fotógrafo como tú. A los 20 años cuando tuve dinero para poder comprar mi primer cámara tome fotos que me llenaron el alma, después tuve que vender mi cámara por que quería una moto, ahora vendí mi moto para comprar una cámara mejor, sin embargo estudio Administración, en la universidad, tengo 24 años y eh recordado a través de tus videos el niño que quería ser fotógrafo, ahora me pregunto que estoy haciendo estudiando algo que no es mi pasión, eso me entristece un poco, pero por medio de tus videos, siento como si yo fuera tu al tomar las fotos, es algo enriquecedor.
As always great tips, beautiful photos and videos. Nature in Denmark looks amazing. The way you showing it, is perfect! Greetings and waiting for next videos :D
Bra tips Morten. Ett tips är att använda lika många kläd lager på benen som på överkroppen. ett misstag många gör är att ha mycket kläder och tjocka jackor på överkroppen men nästan inga kläder på benen. Så ett par termobyxor hjälper väldigt mycket.
Bonjour l'ami, je vois que vous utilisez plus le canon 5 d hybride, alors ma question est la suivante, avez vous rencontré un problème technique avec ces appareils, 5 d et 6 d série R. merci de votre réponse, et merci pour vos vidéos elles sont superbes.
like always a great movie from the photographic trip! great fox shots! patience pays off! without it there would be no results! Bravo and best regards! 👍
Hi Morten! Like always, what a wonderful video! I really loved the photos you took at this location, especially the ones of the fox. I also really appreciate the time you take to give us such practical tips. They are extremely helpful. Looking forwards to seeing the pictures on instagram!
Many thanks for another inspiring informative video, much appreciated. Good advice for those of us in cold winter climates, to me being warm is the number one priority followed by food and hydration. Though one thing, I probably would have left my camera gear on the shore while I evaluated the strength of the ice sheet.
Hi Morten, you're using the Z6 in this video again. Previous video the Canon for the focus. Will you be using the Z6 ii soon? I'm curious what your take will be on its improved focusing capabilities.
I really like your videos. I wish I was tough enough to stay out all day when it's cold. But, around here they close all the roads in the mountains when it snows and by the time they open them again, the snow is gone.
Love the video as always, you Inspired me to do my own vlogging when I am out doing wildlife photography, actually gonna go edit it right after sending this comment ;)! - Love the videos and your photos, I nearly can't wait to the next one!
Yes! It's Morten Hilmer time! 🥳
Stop! Hilmer time!
Hi Morten,
I’d just like to say thank you, because without you, I wouldn’t have found my love for wildlife photography. I first saw one of your videos about 8 months ago and it was absolutely breathtaking. You are a true inspiration and role model. Thank you once again.
A lot of us had the same experience. We all appreciate you Morten :)
@@Jules317 Yes !
With me it was completely the same way :-)
Yup. Morten´s dedication to his craft is inspiring
Same boat. lol.
Incredible as always
Great work Morten!
Perfect timing! I’m just making dinner and will watch this while eating. Mortens videos are on par with the planet Earth documentaries to me. I tell anyone that will listen about these fantastic videos :). Take care and much love Morten!
Just read that comment and thought that it would be awesome to have a Morten Hilmer video narrated by David Attenborough...
@@WaechterDerNacht that would be absolutely legendary! My favourite narrator, and my favourite photographer of all time. Mortens narrating skills are just as great, but I grew up hearing David Attenborough’s amazingly relaxing voice. I’d sleep like a baby after watching the two collaborate 😂👍🏻

Interesting how the birds stay around while the fox walks around. They are good friends it seems..
The light...The contrast of warm tones and freezing land. Wonderful.
Literally just rewatched your old fox video from a few years back yesterday, can’t wait to see this one ! I’m doing a local fox project so I hope I’ll be able to see and photograph some too 👍🏼👍🏼
It's not about taking the pictures. It's about enjoying the moment also. That is what I learned from your videos. Thanks
That fox was beautiful. And all swans and ducks. I can't wait spring to come with all birds again. I had maybe best time of My life last autumn when just watching, following and filming swan family.

Incredible that the fox didn’t try to catch a duck or goose! Beautiful location and gorgeous photos and videos.
Hi Morten.
Could you make a video with the accessories you have for recording content? those accessories that facilitate field work, supports, magic arms, cold shoe ...
Thanks.
Absolutely love you're videos Morten. Everytime I'm watching I can't wait to go out again to take photos!
I’ve sorely missed these sorts of videos. Another great on location video, always a joy to watch. 😎👊
Here in Montana, USA, it's fox mating season and we had a couple out last night on our ranch right by the house making the loudest racket you can imagine. Foxes are normally seen and not heard but they had vocalize loudly at times.

Another well produced video again Morten lots of atmospheric footage to go with the story line, nice to share it with your friend too.👍
Stunning shots, love the one of the fox in the snow smiling at the camera ! Great work 😎👍

Thanks for the story telling!

Fantastic. Really enjoyed watching this video, thanks so much. Great tips for cold weather dressing as well!
You're an amazing photographer Morten
Thank you for inspiring 🙏🏼
Beautiful! We were just outside trying to get some good photos of seals in the glacier lagoon. Takes time to get a good shot!
