The Toucan images are stunning….so many birds! Never thought about Costa Rica as a holiday, but now…..oh maaaaaaan!
He's asking for the rain... And the rain starts in the next scene. That's a fantastic touch! Very nice and enjoyable video as ever! My god, soooo many birds!😍😍😍
Thanks Arghyadip! appreciate you noticed that 😁
So, I did it. I bought the OM1 based on your videos and comments. Took it for a walk in San Francisco today. Very happy with it.
Excellent! Glad you like it, I can’t really do without mine now 😁
Thanks so much for bringing us on this incredible adventure in Costa Rica, and thanks for sharing the competition! So excited to see all the awesome entries we get to the event ☺️
Thank you Jeremy! Looking forward to the event 😁
What a fantastic video Espen. Brilliantly put together. Costa Rica really is a delight for the senses.. in every way.
Thanks a lot Paul! An incredible place 😁
Yet another lovely video Espen, I spent 3 months in Costa Rica from December last year to February of this year, and this series of videos is reminding me of so many lovely memories. Fantastic country and amazing videos, thank you!
Thank you Marc 🙂 three months would be amazing to be in Costa Rica!
The birds are amazing, so many colours and species, thanks a lot for sharing ! Great photos here ! 🌞
Thank you very much 🙂
Thanks for this showcase of colorful birds.
What a lovely and beautiful experience that you share with us. Thank you!
What a fantastic place Costa Rica appears to be. Ive read how the government and the locals have really embraced the advantages of looking after the beautiful environment that they have and protecting the local wildlife and wild spaces has had major economic benefits for the country. Looked like a great trip Espen, so many species to photograph. Looking forward to the next film 👍
Cheers Simon! Yeah they’re really onto something there, way ahead of most countries I think.
Wonderful videos, Espen. We love Costa Rica and spent before and after the pandemic 2 times 4 weeks there. It was amazing. My wife and I love birding and wildlife photography and felt like in paradise. We did Pacific and carribbean coast. So, midlands are missing and will be visited soon.
2nd butterfly: maybe Hyperythra lutea
Thank you Claus! Sounds like you had a great experience and good shout on the butterfly, looks similar
What a great variety of birds and butterflies and gorgeous, artistic images! Love the story of the national bird and good reminder that it's not always about the color!
Thank you very much Juanita 🙂
OMG another stunning video of your trip. What a place, what wildlife and all brought to life by the skills of my favourite photographer. Thanks again for sharing.
Thank you David!
Outstanding shots and storytelling, Espen. One thing I'd love have described are the smells you are picking up on in the forest. Especially when they are saturated with water. Thanks so much for your wonderful production!
Thank you 🙂 good idea ill keep in mind for future videos 👍
Wonderful place .
What an incredible video, I am a bird lover from Costa Rica, and I've seen them but
I had to watch this video about 6 times in a row; I loved that u talked about the history of the national bird(Yigüirro), we learn about this history when we are in school in the civics books (national symbols), and we have a lot of respect for this bird. Thanks for this post.
That’s so nice to hear 🙂 thank you for your comment
Congrats on a stunning video and gorgeous photography. The shot you got of the fiery billed aracari in flight is incredible 👏🏻 greetings from Costa Rica and pura vida 🦥
Thank you very much 🙂
What an amazing nature. Great Video! Thanks for capturing this for uns!
Thank you very much Alex!
Pura vida!!!Costa Rica bellas aves
Pura vida 🙂
That mountain lodge looked like the perfect place to get some great shots. Thanks for a great video, we absolutely love CR
Thanks Chris and Ken 🙂
Great video Espen, looks like. your having a fun packed time.
Thanks a lot Ray!
Stayed at Talari Lodge in February - saw a Fiery-billed Aracari snatch a hummingbird from mid-air and eat it, from that very balcony!
Cool! Such an amazing place 🙂
👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻🙏🏻
👋🏻🙋🏻♂️
Thanks
Great video. Amazing to follow you on such a trip.
Thank you 🙂
Wow really enjoyed birding with your experience and video
Thank you 🙂
As usual, Espen, some excellent images & videos
Thank you Chris 🙂
Amazing video as always, I'm so jealous of this trip!
Thank you 🙂
Another great video of what looks to be a wildlife paradise. I would like to go there one day
Thank you Mark 🙂 it really is!
Enjoyed the trip through Your eyes and absolutely loved the commentary
Thank you, really appreciate it 🙂
Very beautiful! your travel is awesome, nice picture, nice meet everything is beautiful. One thing more, your music is "géniale".
Thank you very much Romain 🙂
Nice ! :)
Great video! That lodge in the Talamanca Mountains looked very productive!
Cheers Chris! Yeah so many bird species there!
awesome video
Thanks a lot Rudy!
Super video production 😊😊 Missed the entry date for submitting a photo in Jeremy Neip’s wildlife photography competition 🥲 Oh well. Story of my life ha ha. Pity, I had a great shot of Wall Creepers on a cliff wall in the Carpathian Mountains Romania with I think the male feeding the female. Keep on posting your great vlogs 😊😊
Thank you 🙂 I’d love to see a wallcreeper one day, they look amazing!
Lovely video and very envious of your adventure. That 300mm is making me want one more and more🤔
Thank you! It’s a great lens 👍
Thank you. All the best. 👍📷😎
Thanks Rob!
Your moth at 9:15 is in the genus Erastria, likely Erastria decrepitaria. As far as the butterfly at 9:06, it is definitely in the tribe Ithomiini. To me it looks like Pteronymia latilla but I am by no means an expert on Costa Rican butterflies.
Hey Espen! thank you so much for your videos! your true and gentle touch for your videos is inspiring me to go out to shoot more wildlife photography!
Do you have\can you make a video about your post process techniques and views? I'd love to learn from you that aspect too.
Again, thank you very much!
Tom
Thank you very much Tom 🙂
A great team the E-M1II and the 300mm i would never sell this lens even with the150-400mm as main companion.
Absolutely 👍
I like your enthusiasm. I'm planning a trip in April & wonder if you could tell me the names of the hotels you stayed at please.
Thank you very much :) if you check the description in the videos I've linked the various places I stayed at.
Hi Espen. Another nice video. In a small world coincidence, I am the author of the bird-finding guide that you showed. Thanks for the call out ;-). I hope you found it useful. I have been following your channel for the last two years or so. Always enjoy the videos. Cheers!
That’s amazing 😃 more than happy to, really enjoyed it and used it to plan most of my travel! Great work!
i am following your journey on here as I am going to costa rica for wildlife photography as well. Can i ask you how did you move from one place to another? taxi or public transportation? thanks :)
I mostly used the public buses for getting from town to town. Just remember to book a seat!
Planning my own trip, so I'm curious about the luggage. I noticed that you had two backpacks. How did that work out? Would you do your luggage differently next time? Which mindshift did you take, and did you use it as carry-on luggage? Your travel videos have been helpful.
Hi Paul, sorry for the delay. I had my Mindshift elite 45L and I used a bigger osprey backpack for clothes etc. the 45L is great for travel and I just had it at Dovre as well, however in the tropics I wish I had a smaller one, it gets so hot 😅 I had a very small Solomon bag, and I used that sometimes with just an extra lens and batteries with me.
Too short film, could bé longer, I enjoyed it. Thx
💪💚🌷💥
Great pictures and amazing trip! What lenses did you take on the trip?
Thank you! I mostly used my 300mm f/4 but also occasionally the 40-150mm f/2.8 and the 12-40mm f/2.8
@@EspenHelland perfect combination! I tend to use almost the same! 300mm+ 40-150mm f2.8 + 8-25mm! I love the 12-40mm f2.8, but the 8-25mm open so many possibilities! Lovely pictures! I lived in Rio, Brazil, for 36 years! Also a Paradise for Birds and wildlife. I’m living in southwest Germany now… not so many different species to photograph:)
I'm assuming you used the MkII and 300f4 for your videos of birds as well. Is that a correct assumption? Great video series by the way. Thanks.
Thank you Dan, yes that’s right, only got OM-1 back towards the end of the trip
You did not use the OM-1?
I had some issues with it in Costa Rica, OM System sent me a backup that I used for the last of my stay though.
Why no E-M1x?
I sold it after the OM-1 upgrade. I got an OM-1 sent to me from OM system towards the end of my trip though.
Hei!
Er du norsk? Og var du innom Corcovado? For rovfugler så foreslår jeg Manaus/Brasil. Jeg har aldri sett så mange gribber i hele mitt liv...
Ja det er jeg :) ble en liten tur til Corcovado ja, men vanskelig for foto i skogen.
@@EspenHelland Jeg elsker Costa Rica! Jeg skal tilbake i sommer, hovedsakelig for å se dyr (jeg er spesielt glad i krypdyr, tapirer og dovendyr). Tusen takk for denne fine serien, den gjør juleferien enda bedre :)
God jul! :)
@@EspenHelland Og, jeg setter superpris på at de latinske navnene er inkludert. Det er særs vanskelig å finne ut hva (f.eks) en "kjøttmeis" er når man ikke er kjent med språket.
yiguirro
