Beautiful location, would love to visit. I love the silhouette of the shag, that's one for the frame. I went to visit the puffins and gannets at the great saltee island and it was a first for me. I had an amazing time, you inspire me to go further a field. Thanks for sharing.
Great footage and images! I especially like the gannet flying over the sun kissed water! I hope I can visit the coast for the gannets and puffins later in the year :)
This video and photos are just amazing - a work of art. I also like how you compose the shot in your head before, explaining and sharing your love of photography with us.
Thank you Espen for this super blog, I could feel the enjoyment of the location from the big smiles on your face. Liking the evening backlit gannet images. I had my first big seabird colony experiance the weekend before easter up at Bempton and Flamborough head for a few days. Very windy so I was glad to have the safety of the viewing platforms along Bempton. I also had the pleasure of watching the Black Browed Albertross on my visit. Having enjoyed being amongst a big seabird colony myself I could realy relate to the buzz your were having with your photography. I am now top of the list for my pre-order om system om-1 sometime in May. (its been a long wait) All the best
I thought the eider composition worked really well in black and white. I also especially like the silhouette shot of the shag on the edge of the cliff. Wonderful work.
Hi Espen, what crop are you taking on images, both the 300 and the shorter lens. Take you are at Stonehaven/Montrose. I’m hoping to try Troup Head may at weekend. Great captures
@@EspenHelland yes , how much of the original shot is the subject. Do you use any gigaipixal. Or similar to enhance the shot. What I really mean is how close do you get subject to
Wow, puffins and flowers together are just perfect. I am thinking of upgrading my OM1mkII. Espen, have you tried puffins in flight with the new camera? My MkII can handle the lumbering gannets easily, but the puffins on Mull got the best of it.
I've been considering a mkii upgrade too. After trying dunnit head and puffin cove yesterday. I'm confirmed that I'm the problem🤣. Getting a flying puffin in the viewfinder was virtually impossibly. I can't even imagine getting it large enough in frame for a good print.
@@danielmackenzie680 I would suggest the following: study their flight patterns, they sort of go the same way all the time. Even with a long lens, you can catch them at infinity and keep up with them. Puffins are quite tame, in a good location (I did this on Staffa and Lunga) you can use a medium zoom, like a 70-200 and if you are lucky it will land at yout feet. Naturally, this might take a lot of tries, I had at least 9000 pictures and was pleased with just a few. Regarding Olympus, It has trouble if the bird is heading towards you (even walking, and the puffins are little rockets). I hope they have managed to iron this out in the new camera. The other camera I use is the trusty D500, it managed to do better in this situation.
@@arpadszabo6170 great tips thanks. I was delighted to get 1 bird close enough to fill the frame with a good distance to the background. It made me so happy I switched to video and got a 30 sec clip. Delighted with my luck , I backed away and went home with a huge smile. My first ever bird photo sequence I'm happy with😁
I'm not sure you're really a photographer 🤣? You changed to a shorter lens for birds. I nearly fell off my chair. My wife would have me selling my expensive lens if she heard such things🤣
im hoprfully picking up my om1 this weekend bud so cant wait to use will take me a while as used to my nikon full frame but cant wait have to send me some points and tips to me on instagram as not sure how to set it up for wildlife especially for kingfishers
