  • In June, I travelled to Sweden with a good friend of mine. We spent three days in the wilderness in an attempt to photograph the charismatic red-throated loon. Its eerie calls, elegant shape and elusive nature make it a true symbol of the Nordic wilderness. During our stay, we were granted unimaginable views of these mystic creatures in the most enchanting surroundings and conditions. Join me, behind the scenes, to see how the trip unfolded, and be immersed in the magical nature of the Swedish wilderness.

    I just love watching your videos, I'm a wildlifephotographer myself but I'm still at university so it's getting really difficult to go out and photograph. But when I see your videos I feel like I'm there as well. Thanks for that!

    Your video/photography is amazing. Very beautifully deeply moving. I'm left speechless when watching your videos. I feel like I want to put my camera equipment up on eBay and pick up a
    new hobby. i.e., I will never be as great an artist as you.

      Thank you so much for your kind words! Haha, then I have failed! I would much rather like to inspire you to keep going out there, than to make it any sort of competition. Enjoy the adventure and have fun improving your craft! I hope you continue photographing and having fun with it!

    Nice video, didn't care for the drowning out of the nature sounds by the soundtrack, nice collection of images.

    • @TobiasGjerde
      @TobiasGjerde  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi, thanks for your honest feed back. Personally, I think the soundtracks complement the atmosphere of the wilderness, and find them essential to maintain the flow in the video. But that’s the great thing about art - it’s subjective!

    Beautiful images and video footage. I always look forward to enjoying a new Tobias Gjerde TH-cam video. When I receive the notification, I plan a time to watch undisturbed. You are right about rising early to enjoy the beginning of a new day. Not only is the lighting special, but observing wildlife when the first rays of the sunrise appear is magical. I am excited to soon receive my calendar.

    You are amazing. May i ask how you afford such good gear? How did you start being able to afford it and make money w wildlife photography assuming ur not from a very very rich family?

    • @TobiasGjerde
      @TobiasGjerde  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you very much! I saved up for many years to afford to upgrade my camera gear. I spent almost all my confirmation money on the 300mm f/2.8. I also buy almost everything second hand, so this saves me a lot of money. And last but not least, I used to work at a photography store, so I would get quite good deals on equipment. But to be honest, I do not have very much gear compared to most other wildlife photographers. I try not to focus on gear, and rather focus on the experiences in nature. Then again, I make sure that my gear is just good enough so I do not feel like it is limiting my creativity.

      No, I shoot full manual. I prefer to have 100% control of the exposure.
