    ✦ ABOUT THIS VIDEO
    Winter wildlife photography is definitely one of the things I love the most, and this time I am bringing my tent and camping equipment, so that I can stay out for several days.
    In this second episode I am lucky to find and photograph the muskoxen - what a great start on this 4-day trip.
    I am looking forward to sharing this experience with you.
    Happy watching and stay tuned for the next video.
    ✦ WHO I AM.
    My name is Morten Hilmer and I am a professional nature and wildlife photographer.
    I am a Nikon Ambassador and I work as an ILCP photographer.
    Nature conservation is very close to my heart.
    I have served in the Danish military special unit, the Sirius Patrol, for two years and that has given me the skills and confidence to operate alone in the arctic regions.

    Happy New Year everyone and thank you so much for being the most fantastic, encouraging and positive audience.
    If you want more muskoxen, check out this guy - Gunnar Dresler: th-cam.com/video/rt6z9WTEfzE/w-d-xo.html
    He has also been on Dovrefjell, and I like his approach to the animals and the way he respects nature.
    He obviously puts a lot of effort into making his films and he deserves a much bigger audience. Check him out please:)

      Well, I don’t even know what to say but thank you, Morten. For all the inspiration and all your work. I guess it’s my biology background but also people like you that have a big impact on how I want to treat wildlife.
      This video makes me scared of the winter up there, but I also would like to try it… with the right gear and mindset! Cheers 🙏

    It feels so out of place that these videos are on TH-cam rather than Netflix. Kudos Morten, always a joy!

    Morten, Before I start to watch your video, I click on the 'like' button so that I don't forget after being mesmerized by your content. That's the reputation you have created for yourself. Thank you.

    • @rishikksh20
      @rishikksh20 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      if you hit like before watching 10- 20% of video length, youtube sometimes consider it as spam liking and gives a low recommendation score to a video.

    @jeffolson4731 2 ปีที่แล้ว +44

    Morton, simply amazing. The pictures you got were stunning. The care for the well being of the animals is great. I, like others have said, cannot believe videos of this quality are on TH-cam. These could very easily be NatGeo.
    Thank you for allowing us to see you adventures so we can get a feel for what it might be like.

    • @MortenHilmer

    Dear Morten, I just wanted to say how emotional it is watching your incredible film. Your storytelling, scene setting, your joy at being in such a beautiful place and most of all you care for what your creatures you are filming is second to none. We saw the kind of logistical help some filmmakers have. You produce and present this to us on TH-cam on your own. Incredible. Thank you for every second of your effort.

    Hey Morten, My wife and I have been watching your videos together. We are both really enjoying them. Spending most of my life in Canada’s Yukon, I learned to love hiking and exploring in the back country. When I met my wife many many years ago, we began to share that experience together. This video was awesome because we could imagine exactly how you felt in that beautiful winter land. The fact that I am also an avid photographer just adds to the enjoyment. Anyway, we wanted to say that we really appreciate your down to earth videos. Definitely one of my favourite photography channels. Thank you.
