Ya know, if there's one thing I've learned about wildlife photography over the years, it's that wildlife, even the same species, act differently based on what environment they live in. So yes, ghillie nets and vehicles are very different, but a fox in a national park or town square will act very differently than one in the middle of the backcountry. The tools you have to use to stay hidden from or help animals feel comfortable may change in each habitat. I hope that helps, thanks for the feedback!
Perhaps a silly question. How do you stay comfortabke why sitting in one spot for hours. I struggle with this and pften leave way too ealry because of it
Not a silly question at all. Truthful answer, you don't... 🤣 It's not a comfortable scenario most of the time, I just have to remind myself that it could be worth it in the end.
Some great tips on this one Jimmy. I use the camo clothing every time I go out and I also at times use my pop up blind. I haven't tried the camo netting but I am going to look into getting some of that as well. Thanks for some great tips and have a great week.
Thanks so much Keith! I definitely recommend the ghillie net or a ghillie suit. Especially if you're working on a species that is particularly flighty or skittish. Have a wonderful week out there!
@@JimmyBreitenstein One of my husband's friends have a litter in his backyard! We spent Saturday afternoon visiting and photographing them! Mama seemed a bit skittish hearing the shutter go off, so next time I think I will use camo and pot to get down low and do video instead of a lot of clicking. We discovered how skittish they are we decided to just shoot through their closed windows. Even though we were right next to the house and a long distance from the sheds where they have their den and food caches under Mama seemed alarmed. It would be nice if they were more out in the wild, but I will photograph them any chance I get.as long as they are tolerant. It was pretty exciting.
Buen camuflaje aca en colombia no es buena usarlos que te pueden confundir con la insurgencia
Thank you! Oh wow, I'll have to remember that if I ever decide to visit 😅
Beats me - how we go from discussion of ghillie nets 'because they break up un-natural shapes' to 'just sit in your car' ... Someone please explain

awesome video
Thanks!
Blinds are my preferred method. I also find other critters show up that you were not expecting.
It's so true, I've photographed some pretty amazing animals from a blind, many of them I was never expecting to see!
Great tips! I use all you mentioned, and they are really effective.
Thank you Giuseppe, always appreciate your support!
